that helps us. Her name is Carly, Okay, she is
our We've given her title called director of Operations. We
call her r d oo okay. And here recently I
found out that she's been doing things for other people
that she has not been doing for me and Robbie.
For instance, we need like a nice little website put up,
(03:18):
and I didn't even know she had skills for that,
and then I find out she does, and I'm like,
oh my gosh, Carly, you're so shady. So she is
my shady person of the Week number one. Number two.
We've decided that she possibly needs to change her title,
So we're gonna we're gonna allow you guys to tell
us what Carly's title needs to be. Director of Operations
(03:40):
is just kind of sounds like she works for construction zones,
and she's like she works at the Cisco plant or
something like, like she's on the production she's overseeing the
writers on the assembly line. Like, Um, you didn't put
that together right, So we want like something cute and
creative fun. So what does some one who runs the
(04:01):
hottest podcast call herself? So y'all let us know, um,
send us like a note either my d M s
or at what's up at reasonably shady dot com? And
let us know what Carly's new title will be, because
right now it is miss Shady. That's what her title is.

website for us goodness? Yeah, okay, So my reasonably shady
moment goes to Juan Antonio Dixon what not? Antonio? First

Like why are they trying? Why where his parents trying
(04:45):
the foolery with like the Latin the Hispanic name Latino name,
like just a black man, that's the whole black man.
So like if people don't know that he's has no Hispanic,
like he cannot check that box where it's like you
ethnicity can't check the hispanic boxer whatsoever? Like they literally
(05:05):
like Jan Antonio and was like, not as Wan, my
my grandmother rest rest in peace, are beautiful. Soul used
to call him Warren because she couldn't say Wan, because
it's like like that's just what she would call him, Warren, Warren, Warren,
Warren over here, Warren. Okay, well, what's Wan Antonio do
(05:29):

days almost. In this dude is still living out of
his boxes. What meaning Like I've unpacked my closet, I've

the office, I've unpacked the family room. Right, his boxes,
like of his stuff, it's just his stuff, his closet,
his shoes, his clothes, his underway shoes, his clothes, underwear, anything,
they're still in boxes. And he and as he wears stuff,
he just takes them out the box instead of like, dude,
(06:13):

want us to keep doing this. We need to know,
so please leave us a review. Yes and that and
that is very very easy to do. All right. So
we've got some some things to talk about, because this
is a whole lot that's happening out here in these streets. Okay,
(08:43):
So first and foremost, first and foremost, okay, um, because
it's been like a lot of fallout from this, let's
we gotta we gotta touch on that person that I
not Kanye, because I said I was never gonna talk
about Kanye again. But after we talk about this, dude,
I'm never talking about him. And you're done, okay. R Kelly,
Oh yeah, he's done. Okay. So so after the day
(09:05):
when I talking about R Kelly, no need, no need, Okay.
So R Kelly was convicted on racketeering and child molestation
and and and abandonment and god knows it's a million things,
as he should and um and he I think he
might be sentenced to like a hundred and twenty five
thousand years in prison. Great, okay, I'm glad to hear it.
(09:28):
So out of nowhere from from the cheap seats come
Bill Cosby talking about um, you know, R Kelly didn't
get the justice that he deserved, and the judicial system
needs to be looked upon because, um, I don't think
(09:49):
this young man got a fair trial. Bill, you need
just shut up the f up, like, shut up really quick.
Look before someone else finds another charge to pull you
up on. H be quiet, and why are you even
chiming in? This man R. Kelly has destroyed so many
young girls, so many families. He was, he's a predator
(10:10):
on young girls, and we found out young boys like
he is the worst of the worst of the worst
of the worst. So Bill, shut it up, Shut it up. No,
there's there's no I'm the stuff that R. Kellingtond is.
You cannot you can't sugarcoat it. No, you can't make
it what it was not. It probably was far worse
(10:32):
than what we even know. Yes, I mean, imagine being
a young girl and being you know, abused and um
you know targeted like that. Imagine what that does to
you for the rest of your life. But the rest
of your life. So as real Cleary, I think I
hope I'm saying her name right. She just did an
interview with Gail. Now, if you remember, she also did
(10:53):
an interview with Gail about a year or so ago,
and she now sat down recently with Gail to say
that everything she said then was a lie. Oh, and
girl was like, what you mean you lied to me?
And she was like, everything I said was a lie.
He prepped us for days prior to their interview with Gail,
and so that I missed every time. This just came
(11:14):
out every time, Um, the question was asked, and if
and if they didn't answer it properly in their prep,
then he would be like, no, do it again, or no,
say it this way. So he was very happy with
the answers and responses that they gave then. Because Gail asked, like,
you know, after the interview was over, what happened? They
were like, oh he was. He was happy as a
(11:35):
lark because they defended him, and she said, we lied
about everything. This guy is horrible and all the people
around him continue to tell him how old these girls were,
and he just like brushed it off. Wow, Okay, So
did she testify. I don't know if she testified, but
(11:55):
you have to understand he was charged in New York, right,
so he says charges pending in I think Minnesota. He's
got charges pending in everywhere, everywhere, state. I don't know
what the what the law is. I don't know if
you after you've been convicted in one state, do you
continue to do have trials in other states. I don't
know how that works. But get him for all he's worth. Yeah, yeah,
(12:18):
I don't think he's worth anything. But put him under
the jail, seriously, don't let him touch another person, yeah,
after because he's got a problem. And and honestly put
him in solitude because clearly he has a sickness, so
he would probably be in jail enjoying himself, like and
these people that were outside himself, right, these people that
(12:38):
were outside the jail house, like Um singing his songs
after he got convicted. Y'all are idiots. It's never last
one of y'all. Y'all don't come for me. I'm gonna
come for y'all. Y'all idiots. I cringe when I hear
an R. Kelly song. First of all, I might be
in the minority. I thought he was a Creek before, Like,
I really was not a fan of his music before.
(13:00):
Made me cringe before. But now I like Barth, Like, okay,
I have to be honest. I did like chalk the factory. Okay,
but not anymore, not anymore factory be damned. Okay, Now
let's move want to Nick and Kevin heart. Now this
actually warms my heart because and I think you would
appreciate this because you know, they've been playing pranks on
(13:21):
each other and you do they like put the someone's
phone number on the billboard, so Kevin put Okay, so
let's back up. Nick gave Kevin a llama for his birthday,
which shipped it all over Kevin's property. Okay. Then Kevin
in in return, posted a billboard with Nick's phone number,
his personal cell phone number, and everybody their grandmother was calling,
(13:44):
timing everything change that, yes, yes, but having here, I mean,
I mean, how crazy is that? Like Nick has to
call all of his baby mama's how all of them
phone number? Like it's inconvenience, Like Kevin has inconvenience. Name.
So Nick snuck into his hanger to Kevin's hangar and
put his face on Kevin's plane. How do you do that?
(14:07):
Like he had it wrapped with his because Kevin because
Nick is coming out with a new show. Okay, so
I call bullshit, But okay, who let you in the
hangar and do that and let you do that, Okay,
I could still Okay, fine, let's be entertained. I feel
like Nick paid somebody off, okay to get into the hangar,
and then he wrapped it with an advertisement of his
new show that's coming out, which is kind of cool, excute.
(14:30):
So when Kevin is flying around, he'll be advertising Nick Chian.
That's kind of cool. Now. I was thinking we should
play pranks on each other, Robin, but Robin, I think
you you might go too far. I might win. Robin's
gonna win, okay, And if we did prank each other,
I might get mad, it might in our friendship. Never mind,
(14:51):
I was getting excited. Come on, you know I lived
with because Robin's prankster. Yeah, I'm a I'm a prankster.
I'm like, I'm like a own. I'm like a guy's girl,
you know what I'm saying. Like, I've been around one
who's an athlete. I've been around his brothers and cousins
and who are athletes. I've been around his college teammates, Like,
I'm sorry that the male athletes are like prank's biggest jokesters, pranks, pranks, pranksters,
(15:16):
and so yeah, you in trouble is it. Are we
doing this? We're not doing it. We're not doing it.
We're not doing it. Okay, fine, we'll do it season seven. Okay,
season seven, if we make it to season seven, if
Bravo wants us back, yeah, I don't know. It's not
looking good, y'all. If Bravo wants us back, then Robin
and Giselle will be pranking each other. But the question
(15:37):
is who starts first. We shall see, we shall see,
all right. I happened to be home on the day
that Kamala Harris was supposed to be on the View?
Were you home that day? I was? And I stepped
(15:59):
away in the TV from the TV okay, and I
came back and it was two people left, and I
was like what. Okay. First of all, they had been
advertising that for our vice president, the beautiful Kamala Harris
was going to be on the View for a week. Okay, whoop.
He was sick, she had um, she had something scadicau
something I don't know. It was trying to get whoop
you back, because you know, we all need will be
(16:20):
to ask the vice president some very important questions, okay,
and like, let's be clear, we've we've been having some
extreme issues at our borders in Texas with the Haitians,
and we all know how Sunny Houston, who by the way,
it's my sore roar ski we my sore roar Um
feels about it. She's worked up as we all. Yes,
(16:41):
she let him have it. Yeah, she let him have it.
So all of a sudden, I didn't nowhere because they
were like, okay, Joey bear Joy Behard was like, okay,
is that our last name? She was like, okay, when
we come back from break, um, the vice president will
be sitting here. So we come back from brain no
if as president and then they say Sonny and Anna
(17:02):
get out, so they leave and then they come back
and say, okay, well they tested positive for COVID. So
that was something in my spirit, right, something spirits saying
it ain't right, it ain't right. What did you feel
your spirit? One? Yes, I was like, um, what do
you mean they tested positive for COVID? You're just figuring
this out. I'm going to say that a production such
(17:24):
as there's just testing very frequently and before anyone can
stop foot in the building, they know of what their
their status is. You know, they know what their test
result is so I'm calling bullshit that they found out
right then in there in that moment. But my question
(17:45):
is like why for what? Why? Okay, so this is
my fore and for what? So I think that calms people.
I'm not gonna say that Kamala was scared. I'm gonna
say her people, we're scared of the question ends that
Sunny and Anna had for the vice president because you
know that Sonny was coming for the jugular about the
(18:08):
Haitians that were at the border in Texas. So I
really feel like one or two of device presidents people
was like, you know why you need to get them
about it here, but and it's not your son. Anna
Navarro is a tough cookie and both of them, both
of them, and you know, Sunny, Sunny is extremely Sunny
(18:29):
is extremely smart and right, and she's you know, she's
on the right side of right, of my right, and
she she doesn't She asked questions in a way that
are direct, borderline offensive, but in a good way, and
you cannot skirt it, like you gotta answer. She's gonna
(18:50):
be like, you can't answer my question. So I think
I'm like a screwed or people got scared somebody got
scared up in that camp and anyone else thought that, like,
have we did you come up with this yourself? This
is my own conspiracy. This is my theory, and I'm
sticking with it. I actually like that because didn't they
say afterwards that they tested negative? Yes, and then twenty
(19:11):
four later negative and they're back on TV like they
were back on TV the next day, y'all a liars. Okay,
they didn't have the COVID, They just had just commonly
just had the scaries. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what that wash. Now,
And you're talking about your other so over look at that.
I know, I know, and in common I love you though,
I do. I mean, I'm not trying to trash you
in anyway. I think I think you're amazing. Now. Do
(19:34):
we have some immigration issues, Yes, we do, ma'am, so
you know you need to handle that. But I think
as far as you standing up and representing a black woman,
you're doing a mighty fine job. Yes. And what was
the topic. What was the reason for Commula's visit? Which
was it? It wasn't to talk about it was a
talkh about Yeah, I think it was kind of like
to talk about everything. But that was so hot at
(19:55):
the at the moment. And by the way, have we
fixed this immigration issue, because because they're not showing it
on the news anymore, it has all of a sudden disappeared.
But I don't believe it's disappeared. Yeah no, I mean
the last thing I saw was what they had some
they flew some people back, and then like, well then
what happens? Where are they going? What are they doing? Okay?
But why why is it to we fly to Haitians?
(20:15):
But our director of operations, Carly is Haitian and she
probably has yeah, gi any insight on this issue. Let's
pass through the mike. Okay, we want to hear from Carly. Everyone, everyone,
here's Carly. Yes, you get to hear a voice and everything. Um,
the Haitians that they flew back to Haiti weren't even
(20:38):
coming from Haiti. They're not Haitian. I mean they're Haitian,
but they weren't coming from Hay. They were coming from Brazil, Argentina,
those countries. So they flew them back somewhere where they home.
Why they do that? They flew them back to Haiti. Okay,
now now this sounds even more crazy. Okay, like Okay,
so Kamala, I know, I just don't be mad at me.
(21:00):
But guess what you might be want to be mad
at me because that sounds crazy. But why I don't
even understand how did they even you know what? Why
up into that? That makes sense because my question was
always in my mind. How did they get to Texas
from Haiti? Because that's that you would die before you
did that. So that makes sense. They were coming from Brazil,
(21:21):
they were coming from Okay, that makes sense. This is deep.
This is very deep. But but even deeper is why
are they being flown anywhere? Because we don't fly back uh,
the Afghanistan people, because we scooped them up and brought here.
We don't really we don't fly back to Mexicans. We
don't fly back actually anyone. Okay, So um, I mean
(21:44):
we know, we know what it is. This is bad
and people who are you know, kind of know what
they're doing. They need to keep their feet on the
necks of the people who need to do something. So
let's not let us. Um. I don't know what to do,
so hopefully the people who do know what to do
figure it out. Keep it pushing. Now, um, you remember
back in the day it was. There was an album
(22:06):
that was like our favorite. It was called The Score,
and it was like that thing, that thing. Okay, fine,
it was Lauren Hill and yes, one of yes, one
of the best albums ever, one of the best albums ever.
The Fuji y'all. So this means that because okay, we're
putting this out there. So either you if you don't
(22:28):
know what we're talking about, either you oh are you
too young? But if you know what we're talked about,
you just right right, okay, you're right in the middle.
So they this is the anniversary of that of The
Score that Oh my gosh, I'm oldest stern what I
was in college. Let me tell you something that that
(22:50):
whole album yes, oh yeah, no, that was the misconception
of Lauren Hill. Okay, anyway, it doesn't even matter, Rob
got it, girl, I got anything. Around the same time.
So they, um are gonna go on tour to celebrate this,
and I got so excited. I was like, I'm getting
(23:12):
my tickets. I'm gonna get something for my kids. I'm
gonna show them what music really sound like. And then um,
they had like a show and they were like two
hours late for the show that happens. I feel like
every time I hear about a Lauren Hill show, she's
two to three hours late. And then but and then
(23:35):
she like performed one song and she's done right, she
gets winded and she's got to go on the back. Okay,
so they were two hours late and then what happened?
That's pretty much that's that it stops and starts there
with me that I feel like it didn't we like
last week, go to um Candice's album released, Being Reasonable guys,
(23:55):
and she was shaped. I mean she was um like
late many hours Okay. Okay, so let's wrap up this
foojie and we're gonna get Okay, let me just say
I am not buying any tickets to this concert because
y'all ain't gonna have me sitting there for to know. Okay.
So that's that on there opening act, I don't know.
Let's s let's get to Kandas Dillard Bessett. Okay, she's
(24:17):
a friend of ours, and she yes, she she released
deep Space. Okay, we're giving a little plug ft one.
Listen to it, you know, listen to Reason We Shady
and then put on deep Space. Yes, so Candas had
little album released Parte or in a little club down
in southeast g C. And um, I decided to you know,
(24:39):
be in the in the streets past my bedtime. Okay,
and so did Robin. He was all up in it
with heels on and everything, hells on everything. So, um
the club opened at ten, okay, so we're thinking Kandice
is gonna give us a stage. There was a live band.
What time did you think he was gonna see candas
on the stage? Like I would say, like eleven thirty. Yeah,
(25:00):
that's that's reasonable, right, that's reasonable. But the shadiness of
it all. She got on stage at one thirty in
the more team. Yes, so what's the next day? She
got one? The next day, I thought I was going
to be in my bid. I thought I was gonna
be home in my bed because you know, I leave
the house and the kid, Oh when you come in back.
I said, I'll be home one o'clock. You know, I
(25:20):
was still in the club, right, So I actually brought
Shereise with me. Shereise um Jordan, who we love dearly.
I told her at about two one to five in
the morning, we got about fifteen more minutes and we're
out here because Candice came out and sang one song?
Is She laughed when she saying, I know, yes, she
(25:40):
sang one song. Well, Beyonce wantn't to have um she
sang one song and there was something wrong with her audio, okay,
and so I think she like went back and so
that they could get the audio together. But yeah, Beyonce
would have said it stood there and said okay, now y'all,
y'all better fix my audio. Right, Okay, yes you know,
but I mean, look, and we're not criticizing Candice. We're
(26:03):
just saying I was a little sleepy, but I want
to say she was fantastic. Yeah. I literally was like wow,
like she's like a true artist, like really like you know,
with her her vocals and her dance stuffs and just
the whole just you know, package it was. I was
so impressed. But yes, she had us out late. So
(26:23):
I feel like, you know, next time if you go
to the Fuji's concert, you'll be prepared because we went well.
I mean, let me just say that all artists should
do or say to themselves and should be on loop
in the back of their mind. What would Beyonce do
because Beyonce's concerts if the ticket says eight o'clock, eight
(26:44):
o five. You're gonna hear what three done? Like she
is ready? Okay, So just all these artists out here
in the streets, just what would Beyonce do? And just
do that because Beyonce, we keep coming back. I've been
to probably like eight Beyonce concerts. I've probably been a
five Beyonce to Beyonce and jay Z to Destiny's Child
(27:09):
because i know what I'm gonna get and I'm gonna
be satisfied. Yes, okay, So moving on, UM, I would
like to say that, um, and this is for the
d O O Carly to write down if I've ever
um lost in these streets or y'all can't find me.
I want the Kelly Price treatment. Okay, I want the
(27:33):
Kelly Price treatment because everybody and they grandmother's painties was
in a bunch over Kelly, oh my gosh, and she
probably was just sitting somewhere like, oh my god. I
just wanted some alone time. Who do not do? Do
(27:54):
not know? Who? Kelly Prices. She's a gospel singer, she's
an R and B singer. She's been out and these
you know, she's been out singing a A A you know,
reputable artist for years, maybe like years or so, and
she got COVID and somewhere along the she she was married.
She's not married anymore. She has children. I think that
(28:15):
here semigrown anywhere. Somewhere along the line she got missing
and her getting It's like she went to the hospital
and she was released from the hospital, and then no
one knew where she was or they didn't know she
was released from the hospital, but she was with the boyfriend.
And I think the issue is the boyfriend might be
a little shady um not not just sell shady, but
(28:37):
like shady shady, you know what I'm saying. It's a difference,
like date line. Okay, So so everybody was up in arms,
like the brat got involved. She did a p s
A on Instagram like where is my friend? Like leave
my friend's name out your mouth, and then the kids
was like where is mama? And then the sister came
and was like, I just need to see her face
and I feel good about my life I see her face.
(29:00):
And if Kelly said god damn it and got on
Instagram and said I'm right here, this is where I am,
and I need if y'all stop talking about me. Okay,
I had to covid a flat line, but I'm back
again flat So I'm just she said she flat line.
She's saying I don't know if she used the word
(29:21):
flat line. Oh my gosh. Okay, So why was she
Why didn't she answer her phone? Like, listen, why didn't
you answer your phone? With the phone? Then, Kelly and
explained nothing. She didn't explain nothing. She didn't say why
she didn't call her kids, her sister. But clearly she
called the brat because the brat had her back. Okay,
And by the way, to Brad, I want you to
have my back if I go missing? Can you can
(29:41):
you do a p s A for just say, hell,
if I go missing, Robin, can you got my back?
Like that? I got your back? But can you can
you answer your phone because something like just something I
just want to Kelly Price can't. But you know, in
all seriousness, it probably it was definitely on the heels
of um the guy that went missing, the grad student
(30:02):
in Illinois, Gelanni day we went missing, and he had
been missing for a while, and it seemed like nobody
was talking about it. So I think, you know, when
it was like, Okay, we gotta make sure we can't
let this time pass. We gotta make sure we you know,
we let people know we're looking for Kelly. So I
I um, and I'm with I know I'm joking, but
(30:23):
in all seriously, I'm happy she's okay. Um, I'm you know,
I hope that her lungs weren't compromised to the point
where she can't sing again because she has a beautiful voice. Um,
so you know, all prayers for Kelly Price for sure, Yes,
for sure. That was funny. Will Smith decided to make
(30:46):
a revelation or an announcement. It was like a big announcement.
It was like seeing a worthy like, well, we know
you and Jayda have an open relationship, Like you didn't know,
but we I'm you found out with the entanglement, but
we already I'm being shady today. You really are, Oh
(31:07):
my gosh. But I was like, hold up, why, like like,
why which which which? Why why did he make an announcement? Yeah?
Why do you think it was even necessary to make
that announcement? We all knew that already, we knew weever,
and actually we were cool with it. We looked the
(31:27):
other way. We said, Okay, that's they're just doing them.
We didn't need an announcement that was that was strange.
But hey, I guess you know in this this, you know,
I think it's it's weird. It's like years ago, celebrities
were so private. You know, they weren't on Instagram, they
weren't on YouTube, they weren't on Twitter, and they were
so private and they valued their privacy. And then somewhere
(31:50):
along the way, you know, celebrities felt the need to
share their life. And I think they realized, Okay, well,
if I'm going to be sharing my life, I can't
run from the truth anymore, like I can't hide it.
And so I'm sure he was just like boss to
the wall, okay, like right right, And speaking of celebrity,
Shaquille made an announcement that he does not want to
(32:11):
be a celebrity anymore, but it's not up to you.
And he said, I am denouncing celebrity. I'm just gonna
be he said, I'm being a regular schmgeler. Shaquille. You're
like seven eight, like holl Toller is he He's like,
he's probably like I don't know, seven to seven to
you what four und pounds. Honey, sir, you can't hide.
(32:33):
We know who you are. Can run but you cannot.
And celebrity is what you will be. Can I tell
you what commercial is? It? Is? It? It's one of
those commercials and he has on the wig and like
he has on the disguise. And I don't care how
many times I've seen this commercial. I crack up everything
because I literally think about, like, oh my god, if
(32:55):
Shaquille O'Neil walked, like walked in front of me with
this damn disguise on, nobody's falling for this. It is
the funniest thing. It's falling for the bandon and tell
pie Shaquille you you are celebrity, sir? Sorry, I mean,
like Shaquille, just where where should he move? Like? Where
should we just tell him to move to anywhere? You
have a job on ESPN, don't you? And you have
(33:18):
a job on T and T T and so'd your
job number one? Do you want to do that? Sell
all your papa jahns? Do you want to do that? Now?
You do? Not? What else? He got? Everything he's got
he owns like a bunch of stuff. But then doesn't
he want to be like a police officer. He can
be a police officer, colonel he wants he can be
a sheriff and he can be a colonel, but he
(33:39):
will be a celebrity sheriff for the rest of his life. Yes, um, now,
I just I just need we do need to talk
about our um the ladies that came before us and
that would be the Real Housewives of Atlanta. A couple
of things. One we want to say we're praying for
Nini now in and for a while, you know, resting.
(34:00):
He's Greg Leaks. Um. I don't know if you've ever
met Greg, but Greg was a guy that touched anybody
that he came in contact with. Just like I've never
met him, I've heard wonderful things about him, just like
a real genuine dude. Um love Greg Leaks. Also, Cynthia
Bailey is the Queen. Cynthia Bailey is moving in another direction.
(34:23):
She will no longer be a part of the Atlanta franchise.
What a staple like, Yes, like Atlanta staple. Yes, icon
We've seen Cynthia get married twice, right, Yes, we have.
And it's so cool to watch like her first season
on Atlanta because you can totally see like she we
like we've seen her mature and grow and develop and
(34:46):
become this beautiful queen before our eyes. Yes. Yes, so Cynthia,
your face, your your whole story, you and Noel, y'all
will all be missed. Um, and then our other queen
are crazy Queen from the streets, Porsche Williams will no
longer be a part of the Real Housewives of Atlanta.
And you know, I love me some Porsche. I'd love
to see her work and have crazy and silly and
(35:08):
I feel like she's going to be a big hole
in that franchise. Oh yeah, she's definitely going to be missed.
She definitely brought a lot of the fun silliness and
but you know she she's still gonna be on Bravo.
She's gonna have her show. Yes, I think that's actually
pretty cool that, um, she's gonna have a show about
her life and not have to really deal with like
(35:28):
the drama. Yes, I mean it's it's like definitely cool.
And it's actually if you're gonna if you're gonna leave
the franchise, that's what you want, right, It's it's kind
of like she's leaving on top. I mean, there's a
lot of controversy in her life. But I think I
think she's in an awesome position. Um, and I think
it's cool. I think the show, her show will be
similar to how we feel about our podcast, where it's like,
(35:51):
you know, you get to learn a lot more about
us outside of the drama. And so I think with
her show, we'll get to learn a lot more about
her and and honestly, I could picture her going back
like for me, this is not a not a goodbye. Well,
Andy said it was a pause. He says he doesn't
want to look at it as a goodbye. Yes, I
wonder Fandy will say that to me if ever I
leave the real house fives Potome, he might say goodbye
(36:12):
to Range. Okay. Anyway, So we have a segment that
we we are now loving. It's called you ask and
we answer, And there was one there's a couple that
we're gonna get to. We're actually running out of time.
We're just having so much fun today, so you got
are you okay? So? Um, And people ask me this
(36:34):
a lot because I have three girls that are around
the same age. Grace is eighteen months older than the twins,
and so the question is how do I manage spending
time with each of your daughters and not leaving anyone out.
This particular person has three kids, six, ten, and twelve,
and they have very different personalities. So let me tell
(36:54):
you something that is extremely hard. So I have to
intend really work on spending individual time with my kids.
UM it's a little easier because I have twins, and
the twins want to do things together with me, but
they still want their own individual time. So I can
say that every day. You know that I'm home pretty
(37:16):
much at night. Um, the girls always come into my room,
but they come in one by one. So Angel comes
in first, and she and I have like a time
to like just go over our day, what happened. She
wants to tell me her highs and lows. She wants
to give me what happened in her classes. Angels very smart,
She's gonna break down, She's gonna use several words I
don't know the definition of. And we're just gonna have
(37:38):
our like all one time. Um Adora will come in
and and then Grace will come in. I I typically
go to Grace's room and spend time with her. Um,
she doesn't she doesn't really require much. Grace just you know,
she wants a quick hug, and she wants me to
tell her she's beautiful because she is, and she's off
(37:58):
a door. I get hurt a long time with her
because like on the weekends when I run errands, she's
like my road dog. So if I have to go
to the cleaners or um, whatever I need to do,
she's in the car with me and she's running my
little errands and she loves to do it, and we
just talk and laugh. And that is the way. It
doesn't happen all the time, but it happens organically that
(38:19):
but you do. You do have to be intentional about
like giving your children their own moments, because they're looking
for it, they want it. Yes, it's always great when
we're all together, but they definitely want their own individual time. Yeah.
And I saw you recently post um, you and the
twins went to tea right now, yes, And I thought
that was so nice. It was like your time with
(38:41):
the twins. And I know I've seen you do stuff
one on one with Grace and I think that, I mean, gosh,
like you're already so busy, and so the fact that
you make it a priority to spend time with each
individual or you know, the twins and Grace or whatever
like that's that's so admirable. Thank you, and I think
that's going to like just your girls will forever remember that.
(39:04):
Before the pandemic, I decided we were going to go
to like different places for high tea because because they
like it. They're a little bougie kids, a little bougie,
so we're exposing them to the fine. So, um, I
couldn't get a reservation at the Mandarin, that's like a
really nice one, and so the pandemic hid. Of course
we didn't do anything. But now the Mandarin they have
(39:25):
all kinds of reservations available. So that's where we went,
and that's actually where we have been trying to go
before the pandemic. So it was great. And now we're
we're on a quest. We'll be on we'll be doing
high tea all the time now. Pandemic. That's the type
of stuff that I hear that makes me want a
little girl. Yeah, it's a little girls just special. I mean,
like I keep my boys. Can I take my boys
to high tea? No? You cannot, No, we cannot, but
(39:49):
I love my boys. Yes, Um, all right, so let's
see I have um how hard was it to start
your business? How did you know that it was what
you wanted to do and where to start? So, UM,
I think I'm I'm glad you asked this. I actually
had a lot of questions about business, and I know
we talked about business and another UM episode, but just
for anyone, like starting a business is not hard, you know,
(40:15):
like it's it's it's a matter of doing your research
and just doing it. And so if you're going to
start a business, I recommend of course, you know, forming
your your llc UM, you know whatever the name of
your business might be, researching and making sure it's not
taken from you know, somewhere else. UM. I have an
e commerce business and so I sell online and Shopify
(40:39):
has made it's so easy to build a business. You know,
you can just it doesn't matter. You can have one product,
you can build your go to Shopify, follow the instructions,
build your website, and bam you have a business. So
you need a tax ID number to to officially run
a business. UM, and you get that with your staying well,
you get the tax I D number from the Fed. Yes,
(41:00):
and then you ate one. So you get your art,
you form your articles of incorporation with the state UM,
but make sure you get a text idea renumber with
the fed UM and then UM. Honestly, I think when
people think about starting a business, they think it has
to be like super successful right out the gate, or
(41:22):
that they have to you know, achieve a certain amount
of sales or whatever. I always tell people it's okay
to start very very very small. Just start with small
goals and say, you know what if I just I
want to make one sale this week, and then you
next week, Okay, I want to make five sales, and
then next month I want to make thirties said whatever
it is. So don't overthink it. Just started, just start,
(41:44):
just get started. Yes, just do it. And literally if
you just start working on your website, if you're not
ready to launch it, just you know, work on it
at night if you have a day job, you know,
after the kids go to sleep, whatever, hop on your computer,
start working on your website, one little you know, tag
at a time. And so don't make the mountain bigger
than what it is. Just just tackle it in little,
(42:06):
small doses and don't overthink it's it's don't overthink it
because all you have to do is just get started. Yeah,
And I mean, I'm telling you we're so blessed to
live in the age that we do now. I would
not have my business if this was probably five years
ago or ten years ago. There's so many resources out
(42:27):
here for you to have a business. I mean, of
course you have social media and stuff, but I'm telling you,
like building a website and starting a business is very easy.
So don't let us stop you. So I love that one.
One last one because we gotta wrap up is somebody
asked me, and I get this a lot, and it's
very weird. Um, where did you get your green ice from? Okay,
we're talking about like who in your family. So my
(42:51):
dad's father had blue eyes, my mom has like olive
colored eyes because it was on both sides of the family.
Then I got green eyes. Now when Grace was born,
So all the nurses are looking at me. They see
I have green eyes. When my Grace was born, every
nurse on the floor of the hospital came into the
(43:14):
room to see to see, yes, if this if this
baby was gonna have green eyes. And the moment they
looked at it, they all left the room and I
was like, damn, I mean, but she beautiful. Why I
gotta do like that? It was not right, but anyway,
it was, it was, it was. It was funny, but
it was interesting to see like they just they were
(43:35):
and they were all interested. They were talking about it.
Mind you, I'm jogged up, I'm pushing like it's the
last thing that you want to even deal with. But
I do remember, and it did not pass down to
any of my children, but hopefully it'll pass down to right. Yeah,
and that's so funny. Of course I share, you know,
similar story. So my green eyes. My my mother has
hazel eyes. My father is brown eyes, but his mother
(43:56):
has blue eyes. There it is my cousin on my
father's side as blue eyes. My brother has hazel eyes.
So it's like coming from both sides, and it's so funny.
Remember a previous podcast we talked. I talked about the
story about like when people would tell me I had
pretty eyes and I'm like, what are you talking about?
My cousin texted me. She says she listened to the podcast.
She was like, oh my gosh, I felt that happened
(44:17):
to me. I had no idea what people were talking about.
So like I think because we looked around our family
and everyone had light eyes, like we just thought it
was normal. But um, when I was pregnant and I
knew I had boys, I was like, I hope they
don't get light eyes because they're gonna boys eyes. Yeah, yeah,
(44:37):
I didn't want my boys to have light eyes. And
so you know, Corey's got brown and carters like like
a lighter brown. So they're good. But I just don't.
I don't know, it's just something about it, like sometimes
I think they get picked on, like you're a pretty boy.
I didn't want my boys to be pretty boy. Well
they are anyway without the light eyes. And yeah they're
they're krety eyes. Well, people, I think that is our episode.
(45:01):
I we have had a fun time chit chatting and
laughing with you guys. Um as always, We'll be back
next week and don't forget if if you live your
life livity the Reasonable or Shady We're both or about
