(00:36):
was reading my horoscopes and stuff. Oh okay, do you

I don't. There's I mean there's people that I meet
and if they tell me what's signed there, I'm like, yeah, well.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
I believe in that, like the zodiac, like you're and
that the same. So horoscopes are like.

Okay, Okay, yes, urgats come through, Okay, yes, well yeah, horoscopes,
I'm like you know, I don't. I don't believe that,
or like what the fortune cookies? Oh yeah, if you
get a good one, or you're like, yes, do you
hold on to it?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I don't hold onto it, but I'm like, yeah, yeah,
this is this is good. I have been on dates
and the fortune cookie was like it pretty much spoke
to the relationship. Really yeah, and it was typically like girl,
run right right, and I got to running up out
of now. It says like you are in the midst.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Some foolish myths, right of nonsense, leave now.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
But sometimes you just stay for a little little nonsense,
a little nonsense never heard. Yeah, there's entertainment, listen. And
I have been into tanky anyway. Okay, so I have
a shady moment. Okay, recently I was on I went
(02:13):
to New York. I was on a train. Have you
been on a next Gin train? No? Okay? So next
Gen is a train service or trains that Amtrak came
up with that are like, I guess upgraded a Sella's right. Okay,
I can't stand it.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Really, what you know what I saw reviews about it? Okay,
I'm gonna tell you what I read. The seats are uncomfortable,
seats are uncomfortable. Okay, lighting is off. Y'all know, anybody
who knows me knows lighting is huge for me. Like
the lighting looks like Walmart lighting. Oh it's a problem.
Can't stand it.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Okay. The doors start beeping, like so when the door's
open and close at the station and beep ba ba
be beat, you think a bomb is getting ready to
go off. Oh my god. And then the door's open,
and I think the doors, from what I understand, are problematic,
Like our train started late because they couldn't open the doors.
Oh wow. And then when the door's closed, it's bab
bab baby again.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Okay, I don't like it. So what is what's supposed
to be special about it?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Is it faster? Might be? It might be a little faster.
It's just like upgraded, you know the restroom. I mean,
the restroom is clean and nice and upgraded, but like, oh,
in the restroom, I couldn't find a toilet paper. Oh
now there was a sign that said toilet paper, but
(03:36):
it was like underneath I couldn't find a toilet paper.
I like the old stuff. If it ain't broke, don't
fix it.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
So they're just trying to make it like sleek and
modern and minimal, and it's like too much.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
And they miss the mark.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
But people don't like change until they get used to
it totally and then you'll be fine with it.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
I mean, I don't have a choice, right, but I
just don't the light. The lighting really killed me. And
when you go on that, you're gonna know exactly what
it's real, stark or real. It's that bright white. Yeah. Yeah,
nobody needs the bright white. No, not on a train.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
No. You want to be like comfortable and like relax,
relax with the relaxed light.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
I want the torn up seats. I want to know
you don't want that. I want the curtains that are weird.
Those curtains on the on the all trends are weird,
Like why is this curtain here because it's a fabric curtain. Ye,
it's weird. They're all broken. I want that, Okay, bringing
that back? Yeah, So I have an issue. So Amtrak,
y'all missed the mark on the next gin and it's shady. Okay, Yeah,
(04:41):
what about you?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Well, yeah me, I had I had another traveling issue
shady moment, real quick. I was on an airplane coming
home on Southwest my favorite air one.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Yes, and wait minute, so have they given you a
seat number? Yeah, okay, not yet yet.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
And it's so crazy because when I was I always
forget how much I hate that, that thing, like the
you know, the what's it called the open seating. Yeah,
I always forget it until I'm like there at the
airport and I'm like, oh, now I remember why I
said I'm not flying Southwest because I'm sick of this.
I'm so sick of it. So anyway, that wasn't the issue.
(05:20):
We you know, got our seats whatever, We're fine. But
on the flight coming home from Dallas was just like
a three hour flight. There's a lady and she has
like two little kids with her, two little girls. I
don't know, the little girls might have been.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Four or five whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
The entire flight, this lady is having story time with
the kids, and she's like ten rows behind me.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Ten what do you mean story time? Like?
Speaker 3 (05:51):
And though, and the dull baby went flying in the air.
Oh no, And and then there goes the dogie walking
down the streets.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
I mean the whole time on the flight, she's so
freaking loud. She's ten rolls away from me, and I
hear everything, and then the little girls are like, yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
So because she's loud. The girls are loud. What happened
to their devices? Where is their iPad? Oh gosh? Giving
my iPad and a headphone? Why this cannot be real?
The whole light and I'm like looking around and I'm
like making eye contact with people, are like making my
eyes really big, like like do you hear what I hear? Right?
Speaker 1 (06:41):
So?
Speaker 2 (06:41):
But where are your headphones? Can't you hear this? Woman?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
I don't use headphone. I don't Okay, so Corey took
my AirPods. I don't use them anyway.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
I just never travel with headphones. I don't know why,
but I need to now. I need to just get
them just for the noise canceling.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Yes, because you don't want to hear these people and
they're stupid conversation. Oh my god. Yes, it was crazy.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
It was like I just I couldn't believe it. It
was the entire flight.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
She did not shut up, like yeah, that would have
annoyed me. And it's like, aren't you you know. I'm
gonna give a shout out to moms because it's hard
being a mom. It's hard acting like that you care
about cartoons, right, because no one does. I didn't care
about a cartoon. I mean I didn't care about Door
the Explorer. No, I didn't care about nine of it.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I was impressed, and I was like, I bet she's
one of those moms that is against devices.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Probably obviously.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Yeah, but there's a time and a place.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
And the plane is the is the test and the player.
Kids need to use a device on traveling. Yes, traveling
is the time and the place. Yes. Not the dinner table, no,
I don't. And I don't even think like really at nighttime, no, yes,
but traveling, yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yes, it was so and I can't believe like everyone
around her just let it go on the entire flight,
and I'm.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Just like, because they had that half all so when
I got hit a ship, yes, so it was like lady, hey,
what so?
Speaker 1 (08:02):
And I guess maybe you know when you're on the plane,
like it's loud, like you, I think people talk louder
because of those all of the noise, and so it
was just that much louder.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
And it was just it just carried like all the
way up to where I was. I would have been
dying laughing, like you can't be serious the whole flight
and the energy that it takes for her to do that, Like, lady,
don't you want to drink and conk out right?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
You know, she kept them entertained. And then to add
on top of it and this you can't really help it.
Then there come a crying baby every twenty minute, and
that's fine, right kind of, but it was like every
twenty minute.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Okay, you can't do anything about that, but shut up,
stop talking. Okay. I do have a question for you, Robin,
because we're getting okay, we're getting down to the wire
of this is very important because I know that you
are on top of this. Hold on, let me find
it it boom boom boom. Okay. So it is the
(09:05):
final hour for you to eighteen t customers. They have
two winks left plane up to seventy five hundred dollars
in data breach settlement. Oh yeah, so have you filled
out your former absolutely as frequently time I ask you this,
I'm thinking that you're really gonna be like, nah, does
I ain't get that one that I'm going to be like,
(09:26):
oh this is new to me. Yeah, No, AP's a
freaking lottle. Okay. So when were you supposed to fill
this out? How long ago? Did you feel a while ago? Yeah,
it's been a year. No no, no, no, no, probably like
four months. Do you think you're going to get seventy five? No? Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Now now that they're reminding people, when I saw that,
I saw that a post.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
You was made. Yes, I'm like, can please stop reminding people?
Cut it out because then you get they just split
it up amongst people.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Yeah, this is less depends on how many people are
in the in the settlement class, and please stop reminding them.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Okay, So because this and this is this is relevant
for us because we live in this DMV area. Yeah, DC, Maryland, Virginia.
They're saying that over eight thousand residents in the PG
in PG County have HIV. Over eight thousand, over eight
thousand residents in PG have HIV. Now the lady, what's
(10:25):
the percent I need the percentage? Okay, So I'm going
to say that that Baltimore was carrying the torch for
the most but for the first time, it's not going
to PG County. Oh, this doesn't out of you. Okay,
that's right, You're you're married out of me.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Okay, I'm here in the dating world, right, I mean,
but that's not a high percentage.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
I don't know. I wonder what the percentage is. Eight
thousand people okay in one county, but you have to okay,
so it's eight thousand. So let's say there's one hundred
thousand people in the county. Some of them are children,
they're out. Okay. Some of them are elderly, they're out.
I'm just talking about my dating. Oh okay, okay. Some
of them are women, they're out. They're just talking about
(11:07):
the men. Yeah, ages thirty five to sixty.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Yeah, I mean, no, it is. It is definitely scary
for anybody.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Yeah, but I mean, I will say there are people living,
you know, I I know people living with it, and
they're like super healthy, like you can be you can
live with HIV for a very very very long time.
And well Mattie Johnson for one that we know, yeah,
Charlie Sheen, Yeah yeah, yeah, okay, all right, fine.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
But that still, you know, I mean, so you might
just want to like make sure you have your protection.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yes, of course, all the things. Don't get all the things. Okay,
So now when you okay, yeah, go ahead. When you
do get to a.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Point with someone that you're like super serious, are you
going through all like have you been tested type of questions?
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Or when when's your I have and I have zis,
I've done both. Okay, yeah, sometimes it just slips my mind.
He shouldn't slip my mind. But yes, yeah, some guys
I know that they have to get regularly screened and
tested based off of their life insurance policy. I know
that sounds crazy, but yeah, so I haven't. I haven't. Okay, yeah, no,
(12:20):
do you just take the work now? Oh yeah? Body right?
Oh do I just take the word for you or
do I see? Likee So, one guy years ago showed
me his test that he was all clean and clean
and fresh and and he just like volunteered it, and
I was like, okay, thanks player. I don't know. I
just felt like because of the way he did it,
(12:42):
I just felt like, did he is He's just fabricated,
like you had this too readiness. So that just has
kind of led me to be like, Okay, I'm just
gonna believe in Jesus. Jesus spare me. But it was
just like he just like whipped that thing out. I said,
this is straight. Didn't wouldn't have like antennas like red flash. Yeah. Right.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
I would definitely be like, okay, you know what you're
doing here?
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Right? Sounds like photoshopped this, like or did you change
your name? I mean it's just it was just two
yeah yeah two yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Any area out here, well, yes, just for everyone. Yes,
please put your protection.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yes, yes, protect yourself. Okay. So in Tokyo, Yeah, there's
a man that is the highest paid bartender that's in Tokyo. Right.
So I saw the little headlines. So I was like,
let me check this man out and see what he's doing, right,
cutting ice. He has blocks of ice. He is cutting
them up into diamond shapes or hectagons or whatever. He's
putting it in a little glass. So you know how
(13:45):
sometimes you get a drink and it has like a
big rock in it. He is mixing it up. He's
doing the things. He might put gold in it, and
the way he serves it to you. He's gonna put
it in front of you, he's gonna spin the glass around.
You're here for it. I'm gonna pay him more. I'm
I'm musa line at the hospital, right, I'm flu of Tokyo.
I find this man I want.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
To take so they need to bring him over here
for like an appearance or something.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Yes, yes, they have to. And he doesn't have to
say a word. He just needs to do Look at this,
Look at this. He just needs an artist, yeah, Ortie,
some of the drinks light up. I don't I think
he's he's putting it on something. It's just I mean,
this is this is like when you go out and
you want something special.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Yeah, this is special, right Yeah, and that's part of
like an experience, like an in dining experience, right right,
He's part of the experience.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
So yeah, I'm going to ask the next guy that
takes me out to take me to Tokyo. Okay, Yes,
and this is why there you go.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Okay, Barton just can make a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Well it, but it only says he's not I thought
when I first was looking at it that he was
making like a million dollars or something. This man is
only making one hundred and fifty thousand.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Dollars oh in Tokyo though, like so's he's into right.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Anywhere from one hundred and fifty to two hundred and
fifty one thousand, which is I mean, that's a great living. Yeah.
But because of the headline. I thought it was just
so much right, right, but I'm here for it.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Yeah, hmmm, yes, okay to say I might be moving
to Spain very soon. Why because Spain became the first
country in Europe. Well, I would say it's probably the
first country anywhere because it definitely don't have it over
(15:35):
here to approve paid menstrual leave, which is like amazing.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
I think that's a problem for you, a problem for me,
and a problem for a lot of women. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
I feel like that is something we should definitely allow
women to have over here, because totally it's for a
lot of women. It can be our menstrual cycle can
be so debilitating, right, So.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Yeah, they give you three days.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
It says the leave generally generally covers up to three
days per month, but in more severe cases it can.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Extend to five. I like that.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Yes, all costs are covered by spain social security system
rather than individual employers.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
That's even better. Love that, right, love that The goal?
Lawmakers say.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
The goal is to recognize menstrual health as a legitimate
medical issue, not something people should push through in silence.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
We should have what's the man? It was over our
health department?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Oh, Robert, Yeah, RFK Robert Kennedy.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Yes, let's tell him about yeah else exactly, do your
one good thing. But this this should be everywhere, this
show everywhere, because.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
I mean, I know how I get taken out with mine,
and I'm always amazed that I don't hear of more
women who are like taking time off for their period.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Well, you do take time off, but you're not paid
for it, like and even even in schools, like my
kids are in school, and you know, like if it's
if it's a bad month, and you'll be like mine's
day three, right, I don't want to get out of bed.
So like it should be from the time that you start, right,
so that's forever your worst days whatever you're I'm talking.
I'm talking about like in high school. Oh yeah, yeah,
(17:13):
like if you can't make it to school or whatever,
to class, then then that should be accommodated. Yes, yes, yes, okay,
I love that. I love that. Spain ladies. First, you
might be gaining a new citizen Spain ladies.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
First, I don't have that issue, but I know you're
so lucky.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Talk to your kids. Okay, what I always forget what what.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Like generation? I am right, so so I'm gen X
gen Z millennial.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
What am I? What am I? Okay, let's see, yeah,
cause I think your gen I saw something. I was like,
this is not the right generation. I'm like on the cusp. Okay, okay,
so our gen X.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
So you're gen X, geneneration between nineteen sixty five and
nineteen eighty.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Oh, I'm gen next two. Okay.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
So gen Z is the generation born between ninety seven
and twenty twelve.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Okay, So your girls are gen Z Yes?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Yes, So I saw a report it says gen Z
is swapping happy hour for a workout.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Oh. Nice.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
So they're saying, like the gen z ers don't drink
as much.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
They don't. They don't. So you're girls set my kids?
Oh no, I'm kidding. My kids do well. I shouldn't
say it because they're not of age great drinks. So
twenty one. Yeah she does drink. Yes, but do you
think it's not as much as like what maybe we
did when we were in college? Agreed? I agree with that. Yes,
(18:47):
I think that they and especially when they get out
of college, right when they're like in the workforce. I
think it's just not that I don't want to say
it's not that important now I'm gonna give an example,
and when the girls were home for Thanksgiving. Before they
got home, they were like, all right, we talked to
all our friends. We going to the club on Wednesday,
(19:09):
on Friday, we're getting together, We're doing blah blah blah.
They didn't do none of it because they just didn't care,
Like it wasn't like a big deal. And I remember
when I came home from college, Oh that was a
big deal. Like we had to hang out, we had
to party, we had to drink, we had to do
all the things. So I just think they.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Just it's not that important. It's different, it's weird. So
it says they're trading in, like they're choosing healthier routines
over traditional nights out. So this generation is drinking less
and prioritize, prioritizing fitness and well being more than ever.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
And let me tell you what. They're also not into
not totally, but they're not into labels. Oh they're not
into Gucci, Louis Prada. They don't. My kids have gone
from there's stuff that I have that they would like
be like, oh can I wear this? And then they
would find out like a door, I had these boots
(20:05):
and she was like, oh, these are Valentino. She's like,
I can't wear this. This is ridiculous, Like what I mean.
I mean she looked it up, saw how much they
cost and was like, I cannot wear this. This is
just no, no, no, like it was a bad taste
in her mouth. Really. Yes. So I one time was
Grace's birthday and I was and I was in the
(20:26):
Louis Vuitton store and I said I was going to
buy her like a little wallet on a chain. I
called the twins and I said which one should I get?
They were like, she don't want that? Why doesn't she
want this? This is? This is It's actually a nice
little gift. They were like, if you get it, mom,
make sure it has no lv's on it. Like they
just don't. Oh wow, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Oh that's so interesting. I find my kids are kind
of divided. Like Corey, if he sees something designer sitting around,
He's going to like put it on, and you know,
but then I'd be like, you're not walking out of
the house with that, Like I just I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
I feel a certain type.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Of way about teenagers wearing designer labels, right, So I'm
like no, but Carter will be like totally not into it.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Yeah, so that's interesting. Maybe when they get old or older,
they might be into it, but they're not that they
if they give me a list of things that they want,
they've never asked me for designer anything. They don't care
about it at all. Oh that's so interesting. Yeah, yeah,
because I would think.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
I know, I got my first Gucci bag when I
was in college.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Okay, I don't think I didn't. I didn't care about
it before then, So maybe they just haven't hit it.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Well they're in college now, but yeah, maybe they just
haven't gotten to that point yet. Yes, I didn't really
care about designer stuff before college.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Yeah I don't. I don't know either, but I'm happy
about it. I'm not complaining.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Yeah that's great, that's great, and I mean, I mean
nowadays everything is just looks nice anyway, Like you can
get cute stuff.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
From Zara and she totally wherever totally and they're fine. Yeah,
I'm a door needed some shoes, some like little black
pat and leather shoes, so I gave her mind. She's like,
mom needs a Prada and I'm like yeah, and she
was like, I can't wear these like like, I'm supposed
to bring these to school and supposed to wear them.
(22:15):
I think it's how other people are going to respond, right, So,
like who you think you are? You? You know, why
are you? You were a teenager walking around with Prada? Yeah? Well,
I mean you know that saved me for going to
the I hadn't warn the shoes. But it's either I'm
giving them to a door or they're going to like
second hand. Yeah, yeah, no, I get that. I get that. Anyway. Okay,
(22:38):
we have stuff to we have stuff to talk about,
we have stuff to read here. Okay, so somebody sent
us what is this? Somebody sent us the questions? Okay,
this is from Amy. How do we know because I know?
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Oh here it is so Amy Cohen, our friend Amy
who's getting married.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Okay, remember Amy?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
She wrote in She says, hello, ladies, I'm listening to
episode two oh four where you guys try to figure
out the seven Continents and you say you should take
a ged ged test. Try taking the US citizenship test.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Yes, thank god, we are already citizens. Yes, yes, yes,
thank god, she said.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
I have included a copy of the updated test that
includes twenty eight additional questions that were added to it
this year. I work at an immigration law firm and
I send this pdf out almost on a daily basis.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Love you girls.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
You're bestie from Annapolis. Amy, And she said, ps, did
you get my weddings saved the date?
Speaker 2 (23:33):
I think we did, Amy, I gotta look for it.
Did it pass? It must not have okay, Amy, we comment,
send it again, Yes, send it again. We can look
for it. Okay.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
So there are one hundred and twenty questions on this test. Yeah,
which we're not going to go over all. No, we're
not going to go all over them. This is and
it they cover important topics about American government and history. Yes,
it is an oral test. And the officer will ask
you to twenty out of the onewenty eight questions.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Oh damn it. It's like they just pick. Yes, they
don't and you don't get a heads up. It's to
which one. So you got to study this test, the
whole thing, and you're only gonna get asked twenty of them.
You must answer at least twelve questions correctly to pass
the twenty twenty five tests. Okay, I feel better. And
this is a this is before a judge.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
Right, They just say it's like a citizen an immigration officer.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Okay, so it's an officer. So let's see.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
So, but this is an oral test, it's not multiple choice.
So they they ask you the question, you got to
know to answer.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Oh okay. So, but some of these are a little
like convoluted. For instance, who does a US senator represent
the state that it that they're from? Yes, it says
(25:00):
citizens of their state or people of their state. Okay,
so I guess what did you say? You said the state? Yeah,
so you might have got that wrong. Oh right, okay,
so I'm like, it's you have I'm sure you have
to get it exactly right, right, yeah, so the people
of the state.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Yeah, okay, so you do you know this question? How
many amendents does the US Constitution have?
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Forty six? You just made that up? No, because there's
there's a nineteenth Amendment, there's a fourteenth Amendment. There's not
a twentieth amendment. So maybe nineteen twenty seven. Oh I
was close, you were close. Okay. Who elects members of
the House of Representatives? The people, right, but it's citizens
(25:48):
from their congressional district. Oh so yeah, but you know that? Okay, Yeah,
you know, like if you're like, you can't elect some
another congressman from another from.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Another dis Yeah, but yeah, I guess it's more like
the House of Representatives is that's not a that's a district. Okay,
So it's not like a state. It's not a country. Okay, yeah,
I mean, okay, all right, let's see.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Who signs bills to become laws. The president yes, ding
ding ding ding ding ing Yes, because sometimes people think
it's it's maybe signed in the House or or the Senate,
like you know, it has to all go all the
way to that man that sits in the oul office, right, Okay, okay,
(26:36):
go ahead.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Why is the Declaration of Independence important.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Because it lists like all the things, all the things. Yes,
it lists all the things. Do you want to be
more specific? It lists like the rules and regulations the
governing body? No. Oh.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
It says a America is free from British control. Yes,
it says all people are created equal, they are. It
identifies inherent rights, yes, and it identifies individual freedoms.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
So I'm like, there's four points are doing? Do you
have to get all four of them? I'm sure you do.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Holy moly. Yeah, that is very important. Holy Moly. Okay, okay.
So wait, who is the Vice President of the United States? Now? JD. Vance? Okay,
very good. Okay. Who was the last vice president? Kamala Harris? Okay,
very good. What does the president's cabinet do advise the president? Yes?
(27:41):
Rob An ding Ding Ding ding Ding Robe ad stay here,
I can stay here, okay, yes, women. Who is the
commander in chief of the US military the president? Yes,
the United States? Yes, and normally people think it's the
head of the what do you call it CIA? Not
the military like Colon Powell? Right, yeah, no, it's not. Yeah,
(28:04):
all right? What are That's why I like these Venezuelan
boats that are blowing up. We know who to blame,
right exactly.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Name the three branches of government.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Judicial, executive, legislatives. Oh my goodness, y'all know, I'm gonna
Citi sindh born here. Oh god, that's yes, I did, Yes,
I did.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Okay, I'll just give one more. What part of the
federal government writes laws?
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Rights? The laws? I think that's the Congress, Congressional.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Okay, so there's like three answers here. Okay, it says Congress, Yeah,
it says let us or national legislature in the legislative branch.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Yeah, that's Congress.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Okay, So that's all I wonder if you just say
one of these answers.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
It depends on who's asking. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
So there's nineteen pages of this tests and the questions
get like harder and harder. Yeah, but yes, right, I don't,
I don't.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
It's a lot. Well, but if you knew that you
were going to do the test to study for study, yeah,
you're gonna know the answers you be able to get
that you're going to study for it. Yeah. Who Okay,
So this is from how do you say that is? Jahanna?
Let me say yeh Hannah Hannahhanna. This is from Ihannah
(29:33):
Bains buys Bains buys bays something. First of all, I
love you, Jaseelle, that's what it says. And Robin with
the heart. My question is for Gazelle, whatever happened to
your website? Your website, my website, whatever happened to it?
Did you have a website? I think I might have
had a website for eight minutes. I don't really recall,
(29:55):
but if I did have one, websites are they cost
money to I mean, keep up? I'm writing yeah, you
gotta keep like the domain. Yeah, and I have my domains. Okay,
but why would why do you need why why would
I need a website?
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (30:09):
I feel like you don't need one. You have Instagram.
I have Instagram, I have social media. Yeah, so a
website is dead. Now who has a website? Yeah? What
did you want her to do on her website? Yeah?
And but who has a website? Like, does have a website?
Speaker 1 (30:21):
I feel like people you have a website if you're
like and say, you could be like an influencer, right, yeah,
and it's more so for Okay, So some people have website.
They have recipes on their website, They have.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
Like their little blogs.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
People write blogs and on their blog posts they kind
of tie it to something that they're like selling or
pushing or promoting.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Okay, let me see Beyonce's website. She has a website. Well,
of course you have the website. What else you.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
If you're like a content creator, you could use that
website to attract brands.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Okay, I like that. Yeah, I think I think Beyonce
should have a website because on her site she has
like her homepage, she has her tour, she has shop
like you can buy something. She has her music, her perfume,
Blue Ivy has a little section here. Okay, so yes,
so I get all of that. I don't feel the
need for a website. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
I think that's more for someone who's more so like
doing like blogs and content creating and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Yeah. Yeah, but I don't fair enough one. Yeah, okay,
this is from Adam. Okay, is it High Green Eyed Bandits?
Speaker 1 (31:39):
Just watch the episodes back in Lol at you being
surprised someone from Idaho watching you. R HP is watched
all over the world. You don't even know currently watching
from my homeland. Slovakia in Eastern Europe already for years.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
That's wild slovakiava. I don't even know where that is.
What is that near Europe?
Speaker 1 (32:00):
Up?
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Eastern Europe? So like is eastern Russia? Is it? I
would I say Italy.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
Italy's on the coast, so Italy would be Western Europe,
so Slovakia would be If it's Eastern Europe, I would
think that's closer to Russia like Ukraine. Oh wow, love
all miss Robbin or Archp and Giselle. You make me
laugh every week so hard. Keep doing what you're doing,
and I know your shady asses. Ask if we have
Bravo in Slovakia.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Yah, that's what we just said. Yeah he said nope,
Oh but he's still watching. Okay, so wait, how's he watching?
I don't illegally, he might be watching on Are we
on YouTube? Not? Okay? Definitely reason to be shady? Yes, away,
so about yeah, let's talk about a how you watching
in Slovakia? Right if you don't have Bravo, If you
don't have Bravo or or the equivalent of like hey
(32:50):
you or something like that. But reasonably shady has a
YouTube page? Yes, we do, by the way, subscribe, check
out all the things. And we like our YouTube commentators. Yes,
are YouTube are YouTube audience. You guys are very.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Involved, like you really like get into it. Yes, and
you tell us your opinions on everything we're talking about.
So we appreciate you all we do. Do we need
to give them a name?
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Are YouTubers are reasonably shady tubers? Shady tubers, shubers, reasonably subers,
super I love it. Okay, that's what they are. Yes,
so shoobers we'll see on YouTube and we know and
we appreciate your commentary. Because Robin explained to me, you
(33:38):
guys are actually watching the whole episode as opposed to
like clips on on Instagram on Instagram or TikTok or whatever.
So you have, you guys have a larger perspective of
like whatever we're talking about as opposed to and by
the way, the clips speak clipped up like take it out.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
Oh yeah, you're not reading the whole story.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Yes, so we appreciate, are you reasonably? You shapers? Shooss?
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Okay, real quick, did you hear the story? So Leonardo
DiCaprio when he was younger, Yeah, he was getting into
acting and his agent wanted him to change his name
because his name was too like unique, and they wanted
him to change.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
His name to Lenny Williams. It's his real name, Leonardo DiCaprio.
I don't believe that. You believe that. I mean, that's
what That's what I read. I think. So, so he
decided to stick with Leonardo.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
Yep, he decided to stick with his real name. And
I'm just thinking, like if he was Lenny Williams.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
Well Williams is not. I always find like these people
that changed their names, their first and last name are
two first names.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
Yeah, right, So no, this is his Okay, his Leonardo
DiCaprio's full name is Leonardo Wilhelm DiCaprio. Oh, okay, so
that's his real name, but his agent wanted him to
change it to.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
Lenny Lenny Williams. That's not a good change. It's not
a good change. I don't think he would have the
same career if he was Lenny Williams. I think Lenny
Dennis would be great. Really, Yes, why it rolls off
the time? No, see don't.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
I just can't imagine him being Lenny anything but Leonardo DiCaprio,
do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (35:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Like now, Yeah, it just made him like more interesting
or more intriguing. Like you hear that name and you're like,
you pay attention to him a little bit more, And
he looks a little sexier, he looks a little more handsome,
he looks a little more intriguing, okay than Lenny William
Lenny Williams.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Imagine if Rihanna kept her real name, which is what again, Robin, Robin,
Robin what's her middle name, Rihanna? Yes, okay, Robin Rihanna
fenty So like I imagine if she was Robin.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Yes, she would never you don't like Robin. No, okay,
So which would you change your name to? Page? Really yeah,
page Dixon or page brag? Well, I mean I would
have been Paige page brag. That doesn't sound right. I
like page brag. I like page brag better than page Dixon.
(36:20):
Really yeah. Page brag is kind of like sophisticated, like
just the two one syllable yes word page brag. Yeah.
I like yeah, but yeah. Always wanted to be a
page Okay. Wow, I thought I was going to be.
When I was younger. I thought I was a good Laura,
but not now, not Laura. I don't know. For whatever
(36:42):
reason I thought because people were like, oh, if you
change your name, I was like, Laura, I don't listen,
no listen. But my parents had all kinds of names
for me. Really, I think I've discussed this before. No Sunshine, okay, no,
you've not sunshine Sunshine. I don't know where my mother
got that from. My mother's sisting now she's gonna kill me.
(37:02):
My father was in I did tell you this before.
My father, when my mother I think, was getting ready
to go into labor, he was traveling. He was in Tugaloo, Mississippi.
My dad wanted to name me. I promise you. Oh yes, Tugaloo.
They're gonna call me Galuo for sure, or Tugi Tugi togi. Yeah,
(37:27):
so Sunshine they were gonna call me Sonny, which I like, Okay, Yeah,
so I could have handled Sunshine. Yeah, but Tugaloo is wild, yes, like,
why would you do that to a child? Yeah? Yeah, no,
that's crazy. I think Gelle is pacly. You look like
a Jiselle. Yes, I could have looked like a Sonny. Yeah,
I gotta I gotta handled. I gotta pull that off.
(37:48):
But anyway, Dad, love you. But Tugloo would have been wrong. Wrong,
I say he was. My mother had a smack him
day with like, we ain't doing that. He was joking. Yes,
but my mother saw Giselle the and she likes the name,
and so she was like, h name her chisel. Yeah
all right. So this is from thank you. This is
from Rubster v Happy two hundredth episodes. You ladies are amazing,
(38:14):
the only podcast I will never miss. I have been
listening to you, ladies since the beginning. I love you
both so much. I need both of your advice to
find friends. I'm thirty and I am soon to be
a mommy, I realize how I don't have friends. When
my husband and I were planning our gender reveal, I
(38:34):
have no one to invite, not even family. Now I'm
just so sad that I have no one, just my hubby.
Please help advice advise on how to find friendships like yours.
I love you both, Ruby. I like the name Ruby.
By the way. Yes, I'm sorry to hear this is easy.
(38:55):
This is an easy fix. Yeah, yeah, totally sorry to
hear that. And I'm wondering why maybe they moved.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
Yeah, like is there a backstory, like why you don't
have friends?
Speaker 2 (39:05):
Now?
Speaker 1 (39:05):
Did you not have friends growing up? And then a
lot of times right, Like so when I think about
my friends growing up, they all have moved away, Like
all my friends that I grew up with live in
a different state. Okay, so then now I have you
know I made friends in college? Yes, I made friends.
(39:27):
So I think where you might want to go with
this or where we're going with this is you said
you're you're having a child, so that's like the perfect
place to perfect friends. Whether you go to like the
mommy and me classes tofly do mommy and me?
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Yes, yes?
Speaker 1 (39:43):
Or if you put your child in activities, whether it's
I don't know if it's a girl or a boy.
But if you have, you know, put your girl in
dance classes and make friends with the dance moms. If
you put your boy, if you're if you put them
in sports, you can make friends with the sports moms.
You can make friends with the school moms if you
want to get involved in But.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
That's that's down the road. School moms are down the road.
Yeah yeah, I think now mommy and me is like perfect, yeah, yeah,
but only talk to the moms that like you feel
like they want you to talk to them, because a
lot of people talk to me and I didn't want
to talk because I just was tired. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (40:15):
So but there that's the room, right Yeah, yeah, definitely
says the room, because there are like you'll find people
who are eager to meet other moms totally, even like
at the my kids preschool day daycare, the mom's there too,
Like I'm you know, no one became friendly with. So
there's some that are like eager to meet other moms
because you guys share something in common. You have a
(40:36):
child that's the same age, y'all live in the same
a going through the same thing, right, sleep deprive yep.
So you're gonna start meeting a lot of friends there.
I mean, I can honestly say, like Corey's the football
moms that I that Corey grew up, you know, when
Corey grew up playing football, all the football moms. I'm
actually gonna get together with them this Friday. Oh nice, Yeah,
(40:57):
like I love that. So they we've all and formed
a nice little friendship. And so I think you'll have
plenty of opportunities to build friendships. My cousin she met
a group of girls in her Mommy and Me class,
and her kids are now twenty five, twenty seven years old,
and she's still friends with these ladies.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
So you know, just be excited because I think you
have an opportunity to meet some good people. But also
don't be offended if there are people who are kind
of like distant, because you know.
Speaker 2 (41:26):
They might they might have it's not personal, right, they
might have a full life. They might have, you know,
a busy schedule and all the friends that they can handle.
And so you know, you'll know the ones that are
looking for friendship and the ones that are kind of
like not Yeah, I'm just here for the playtime, right.
And I remember when I started the gym that I
go to now, like the gym had just opened, so
(41:48):
like everybody was new. So with those ladies, like we
would go to lunch, they would they help me a lot.
They have no idea how much they would help me,
because these were like the Jewish mafia moms, like they
knew everything everything, your hair, your botogs, your doctors, doctors,
you're pediatrician, you're like if you want like a new
(42:09):
nutrition something something, they just knew everybody. If I needed
a landscape or anybody, I would call them and they'd
be like, oh and they would send me like three people.
They would like, choose this one, so make some friends. Yeah, yes,
you'll be all right. Be out there and grats on
the baby. Congrats on the baby. Oh I'm sorry, Last,
but not least, feel free to name the baby either
(42:29):
either Robin or Giselle, preferably Giselle. All right, if it's
a boy. If it's a boy, Oh, Robin, are you
about to read that? You did you have one? No?
(42:50):
I thought that was okay? Yeah, sure, oh okay, oh okay,
sure one more really quick? Okay, Hi, Robin and Jaelle
This is from Jessica. Absolutely love the pod.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
You cracked me up. Big fan of y'all's dynamic and friendship.
I was doing a rewatch of rhop and stumbled upon
the famous Karen press conference episode which she discussed raised
tax wos.
Speaker 2 (43:10):
What season was that? Three? Season three? Three? Okay, those
were the good old days. We talk about it all
the time, so funny, like something happened and oh the
when it was a windy moment that she just got
annihilated and she was like, oh, those were the good
old days. I'm like, yeah, we can look back on
it now. At the time, it wasn't the good old days,
right right? We didn't know it then.
Speaker 1 (43:32):
My question is for Jiselle, where and how did you
come up with the free Uncle Ben T shirt idea?
Did you make the T shirt in your home with
a circuit? I don't know what that means lol. That moment,
that moment is TV gold. Hashtag free uncle Ben, hashtag
tax reform, hashtag free Karen, hashtag God Bless the Hugerts.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
That's regards. Why did I do that? Is the question? Well,
you had some help, yes, yeah, I don't think it
was my It was not my idea. It was my idea.
Speaker 1 (44:03):
It was not my idea, okay, it was it was
someone else's idea.
Speaker 2 (44:07):
Yes, and you ran with it, and I was like, Giselle,
do not do that. Do not. Robin did not want
me to do that as all. I think they were
trying to make us both wear a T shirt and
I was like, oh no, that's for her. Yeah, And
Robin did not want to participate in any in any
any of it. So then I decided I was gonna
go in nice. That's why I didn't like have it on.
(44:29):
I had the jacket on, but then Karen didn't answer
no questions, so I did to jacket off. But like,
had I known then that that teacher would be like
such a hit a hit end quotes iconic, I'll say
in the Bravo verse, I would have kept it. You
didn't keep it. I threw that away. Well, let mean
I don't okay, I don't want to say I threw
it away. I'm saying I don't know where that thing is.
Speaker 1 (44:51):
Oh my god, you probably donated it and someone somebody
should have it and like put it up for auction.
Speaker 2 (44:58):
But people come to Bravo and they've made their own
which is so crazy, which I love, Thanks guys, But
I could I could have sold that for like a
whole lot of money. Yes, so anyway, you didn't keep it?
I did not. I have no idea where it is.
And I've been asked a million times about that shirt,
like from the upper from the upper would have kept?
Speaker 1 (45:18):
I kept because they probably asked for it for to
display it at Bravo con.
Speaker 2 (45:22):
Totally. I kept when Karen gave me like the list
of etiquette. Did it that was season one? I have that?
But did we stopped doing all of these things things
like gay Yeah yeah, and pranks and whatnot. So yeah,
we're going to get back to that. I wonder if
I still have my pizza outfit? Ah, the pizza. Yeah,
(45:44):
you should have those dad pants, those dad jeans. You
had dad jeans? Did you have a wig on? I
had a oh go tea? Yeah, I had a go tea,
a mustache and some glasses. I don't know what my
wolverine wig had. Iry whose idea was that that was?
I feel like that was our idea. Yeah, yeah, that
(46:06):
was our idea. We had to convince them to let
us do it. Uh huh, yeah, they did not the
producers did not want us to do that. They thought
we won't get shot. I don't know, y'all are just
rolling up to Karen's house unannounced in the middle of
the night in Virginia. Karen lived in Virginia with its
like now, hell no, we are not taking an l

to New York. I was on a train. Have you
been on a next Gin train? No? Okay? So next
Gen is a train service or trains that Amtrak came
up with that are like, I guess upgraded a Sella's right. Okay,
I can't stand it.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Really, what you know what I saw reviews about it? Okay,
I'm gonna tell you what I read. The seats are uncomfortable,
seats are uncomfortable. Okay, lighting is off. Y'all know, anybody
who knows me knows lighting is huge for me. Like
the lighting looks like Walmart lighting. Oh it's a problem.
Can't stand it.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Okay. The doors start beeping, like so when the door's
open and close at the station and beep ba ba
be beat, you think a bomb is getting ready to
go off. Oh my god. And then the door's open,
and I think the doors, from what I understand, are problematic,
Like our train started late because they couldn't open the doors.
Oh wow. And then when the door's closed, it's bab
bab baby again.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Okay, I don't like it. So what is what's supposed
to be special about it?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Is it faster? Might be? It might be a little faster.
It's just like upgraded, you know the restroom. I mean,
the restroom is clean and nice and upgraded, but like, oh,
in the restroom, I couldn't find a toilet paper. Oh
now there was a sign that said toilet paper, but
(03:36):
it was like underneath I couldn't find a toilet paper.
I like the old stuff. If it ain't broke, don't
fix it.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
So they're just trying to make it like sleek and
modern and minimal, and it's like too much.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
And they miss the mark.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
But people don't like change until they get used to
it totally and then you'll be fine with it.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
I mean, I don't have a choice, right, but I
just don't the light. The lighting really killed me. And
when you go on that, you're gonna know exactly what
it's real, stark or real. It's that bright white. Yeah. Yeah,
nobody needs the bright white. No, not on a train.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
No. You want to be like comfortable and like relax,
relax with the relaxed light.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
I want the torn up seats. I want to know
you don't want that. I want the curtains that are weird.
Those curtains on the on the all trends are weird,
Like why is this curtain here because it's a fabric curtain. Ye,
it's weird. They're all broken. I want that, Okay, bringing
that back? Yeah, So I have an issue. So Amtrak,
y'all missed the mark on the next gin and it's shady. Okay, Yeah,
(04:41):
what about you?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Well, yeah me, I had I had another traveling issue
shady moment, real quick. I was on an airplane coming
home on Southwest my favorite air one.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Yes, and wait minute, so have they given you a
seat number? Yeah, okay, not yet yet.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
And it's so crazy because when I was I always
forget how much I hate that, that thing, like the
you know, the what's it called the open seating. Yeah,
I always forget it until I'm like there at the
airport and I'm like, oh, now I remember why I
said I'm not flying Southwest because I'm sick of this.
I'm so sick of it. So anyway, that wasn't the issue.
(05:20):
We you know, got our seats whatever, We're fine. But
on the flight coming home from Dallas was just like
a three hour flight. There's a lady and she has
like two little kids with her, two little girls. I
don't know, the little girls might have been.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Four or five whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
The entire flight, this lady is having story time with
the kids, and she's like ten rows behind me.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Ten what do you mean story time? Like?
Speaker 3 (05:51):
And though, and the dull baby went flying in the air.
Oh no, And and then there goes the dogie walking
down the streets.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
I mean the whole time on the flight, she's so
freaking loud. She's ten rolls away from me, and I
hear everything, and then the little girls are like, yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
So because she's loud. The girls are loud. What happened
to their devices? Where is their iPad? Oh gosh? Giving
my iPad and a headphone? Why this cannot be real?
The whole light and I'm like looking around and I'm
like making eye contact with people, are like making my
eyes really big, like like do you hear what I hear? Right?
Speaker 1 (06:41):
So?
Speaker 2 (06:41):
But where are your headphones? Can't you hear this? Woman?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
I don't use headphone. I don't Okay, so Corey took
my AirPods. I don't use them anyway.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
I just never travel with headphones. I don't know why,
but I need to now. I need to just get
them just for the noise canceling.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Yes, because you don't want to hear these people and
they're stupid conversation. Oh my god. Yes, it was crazy.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
It was like I just I couldn't believe it. It
was the entire flight.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
She did not shut up, like yeah, that would have
annoyed me. And it's like, aren't you you know. I'm
gonna give a shout out to moms because it's hard
being a mom. It's hard acting like that you care
about cartoons, right, because no one does. I didn't care
about a cartoon. I mean I didn't care about Door
the Explorer. No, I didn't care about nine of it.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I was impressed, and I was like, I bet she's
one of those moms that is against devices.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Probably obviously.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Yeah, but there's a time and a place.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
And the plane is the is the test and the player.
Kids need to use a device on traveling. Yes, traveling
is the time and the place. Yes. Not the dinner table, no,
I don't. And I don't even think like really at nighttime, no, yes,
but traveling, yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yes, it was so and I can't believe like everyone
around her just let it go on the entire flight,
and I'm.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Just like, because they had that half all so when
I got hit a ship, yes, so it was like lady, hey,
what so?
Speaker 1 (08:02):
And I guess maybe you know when you're on the plane,
like it's loud, like you, I think people talk louder
because of those all of the noise, and so it
was just that much louder.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
And it was just it just carried like all the
way up to where I was. I would have been
dying laughing, like you can't be serious the whole flight
and the energy that it takes for her to do that, Like, lady,
don't you want to drink and conk out right?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
You know, she kept them entertained. And then to add
on top of it and this you can't really help it.
Then there come a crying baby every twenty minute, and
that's fine, right kind of, but it was like every
twenty minute.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Okay, you can't do anything about that, but shut up,
stop talking. Okay. I do have a question for you, Robin,
because we're getting okay, we're getting down to the wire
of this is very important because I know that you
are on top of this. Hold on, let me find
it it boom boom boom. Okay. So it is the
(09:05):
final hour for you to eighteen t customers. They have
two winks left plane up to seventy five hundred dollars
in data breach settlement. Oh yeah, so have you filled
out your former absolutely as frequently time I ask you this,
I'm thinking that you're really gonna be like, nah, does
I ain't get that one that I'm going to be like,
(09:26):
oh this is new to me. Yeah, No, AP's a
freaking lottle. Okay. So when were you supposed to fill
this out? How long ago? Did you feel a while ago? Yeah,
it's been a year. No no, no, no, no, probably like
four months. Do you think you're going to get seventy five? No? Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Now now that they're reminding people, when I saw that,
I saw that a post.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
You was made. Yes, I'm like, can please stop reminding people?
Cut it out because then you get they just split
it up amongst people.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Yeah, this is less depends on how many people are
in the in the settlement class, and please stop reminding them.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Okay, So because this and this is this is relevant
for us because we live in this DMV area. Yeah, DC, Maryland, Virginia.
They're saying that over eight thousand residents in the PG
in PG County have HIV. Over eight thousand, over eight
thousand residents in PG have HIV. Now the lady, what's
(10:25):
the percent I need the percentage? Okay, So I'm going
to say that that Baltimore was carrying the torch for
the most but for the first time, it's not going
to PG County. Oh, this doesn't out of you. Okay,
that's right, You're you're married out of me.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Okay, I'm here in the dating world, right, I mean,
but that's not a high percentage.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
I don't know. I wonder what the percentage is. Eight
thousand people okay in one county, but you have to okay,
so it's eight thousand. So let's say there's one hundred
thousand people in the county. Some of them are children,
they're out. Okay. Some of them are elderly, they're out.
I'm just talking about my dating. Oh okay, okay. Some
of them are women, they're out. They're just talking about
(11:07):
the men. Yeah, ages thirty five to sixty.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Yeah, I mean, no, it is. It is definitely scary
for anybody.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Yeah, but I mean, I will say there are people living,
you know, I I know people living with it, and
they're like super healthy, like you can be you can
live with HIV for a very very very long time.
And well Mattie Johnson for one that we know, yeah,
Charlie Sheen, Yeah yeah, yeah, okay, all right, fine.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
But that still, you know, I mean, so you might
just want to like make sure you have your protection.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yes, of course, all the things. Don't get all the things. Okay,
So now when you okay, yeah, go ahead. When you
do get to a.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Point with someone that you're like super serious, are you
going through all like have you been tested type of questions?
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Or when when's your I have and I have zis,
I've done both. Okay, yeah, sometimes it just slips my mind.
He shouldn't slip my mind. But yes, yeah, some guys
I know that they have to get regularly screened and
tested based off of their life insurance policy. I know
that sounds crazy, but yeah, so I haven't. I haven't. Okay, yeah, no,
(12:20):
do you just take the work now? Oh yeah? Body right?
Oh do I just take the word for you or
do I see? Likee So, one guy years ago showed
me his test that he was all clean and clean
and fresh and and he just like volunteered it, and
I was like, okay, thanks player. I don't know. I
just felt like because of the way he did it,
(12:42):
I just felt like, did he is He's just fabricated,
like you had this too readiness. So that just has
kind of led me to be like, Okay, I'm just
gonna believe in Jesus. Jesus spare me. But it was
just like he just like whipped that thing out. I said,
this is straight. Didn't wouldn't have like antennas like red flash. Yeah. Right.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
I would definitely be like, okay, you know what you're
doing here?
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Right? Sounds like photoshopped this, like or did you change
your name? I mean it's just it was just two
yeah yeah two yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Any area out here, well, yes, just for everyone. Yes,
please put your protection.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yes, yes, protect yourself. Okay. So in Tokyo, Yeah, there's
a man that is the highest paid bartender that's in Tokyo. Right.
So I saw the little headlines. So I was like,
let me check this man out and see what he's doing, right,
cutting ice. He has blocks of ice. He is cutting
them up into diamond shapes or hectagons or whatever. He's
putting it in a little glass. So you know how
(13:45):
sometimes you get a drink and it has like a
big rock in it. He is mixing it up. He's
doing the things. He might put gold in it, and
the way he serves it to you. He's gonna put
it in front of you, he's gonna spin the glass around.
You're here for it. I'm gonna pay him more. I'm
I'm musa line at the hospital, right, I'm flu of Tokyo.
I find this man I want.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
To take so they need to bring him over here
for like an appearance or something.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Yes, yes, they have to. And he doesn't have to
say a word. He just needs to do Look at this,
Look at this. He just needs an artist, yeah, Ortie,
some of the drinks light up. I don't I think
he's he's putting it on something. It's just I mean,
this is this is like when you go out and
you want something special.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Yeah, this is special, right Yeah, and that's part of
like an experience, like an in dining experience, right right,
He's part of the experience.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
So yeah, I'm going to ask the next guy that
takes me out to take me to Tokyo. Okay, Yes,
and this is why there you go.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Okay, Barton just can make a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Well it, but it only says he's not I thought
when I first was looking at it that he was
making like a million dollars or something. This man is
only making one hundred and fifty thousand.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Dollars oh in Tokyo though, like so's he's into right.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Anywhere from one hundred and fifty to two hundred and
fifty one thousand, which is I mean, that's a great living. Yeah.
But because of the headline. I thought it was just
so much right, right, but I'm here for it.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Yeah, hmmm, yes, okay to say I might be moving
to Spain very soon. Why because Spain became the first
country in Europe. Well, I would say it's probably the
first country anywhere because it definitely don't have it over
(15:35):
here to approve paid menstrual leave, which is like amazing.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
I think that's a problem for you, a problem for me,
and a problem for a lot of women. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
I feel like that is something we should definitely allow
women to have over here, because totally it's for a
lot of women. It can be our menstrual cycle can
be so debilitating, right, So.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Yeah, they give you three days.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
It says the leave generally generally covers up to three
days per month, but in more severe cases it can.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Extend to five. I like that.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Yes, all costs are covered by spain social security system
rather than individual employers.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
That's even better. Love that, right, love that The goal?
Lawmakers say.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
The goal is to recognize menstrual health as a legitimate
medical issue, not something people should push through in silence.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
We should have what's the man? It was over our
health department?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Oh, Robert, Yeah, RFK Robert Kennedy.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Yes, let's tell him about yeah else exactly, do your
one good thing. But this this should be everywhere, this
show everywhere, because.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
I mean, I know how I get taken out with mine,
and I'm always amazed that I don't hear of more
women who are like taking time off for their period.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Well, you do take time off, but you're not paid
for it, like and even even in schools, like my
kids are in school, and you know, like if it's
if it's a bad month, and you'll be like mine's
day three, right, I don't want to get out of bed.
So like it should be from the time that you start, right,
so that's forever your worst days whatever you're I'm talking.
I'm talking about like in high school. Oh yeah, yeah,
(17:13):
like if you can't make it to school or whatever,
to class, then then that should be accommodated. Yes, yes, yes, okay,
I love that. I love that. Spain ladies. First, you
might be gaining a new citizen Spain ladies.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
First, I don't have that issue, but I know you're
so lucky.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Talk to your kids. Okay, what I always forget what what.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Like generation? I am right, so so I'm gen X
gen Z millennial.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
What am I? What am I? Okay, let's see, yeah,
cause I think your gen I saw something. I was like,
this is not the right generation. I'm like on the cusp. Okay, okay,
so our gen X.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
So you're gen X, geneneration between nineteen sixty five and
nineteen eighty.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Oh, I'm gen next two. Okay.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
So gen Z is the generation born between ninety seven
and twenty twelve.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Okay, So your girls are gen Z Yes?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Yes, So I saw a report it says gen Z
is swapping happy hour for a workout.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Oh. Nice.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
So they're saying, like the gen z ers don't drink
as much.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
They don't. They don't. So you're girls set my kids?
Oh no, I'm kidding. My kids do well. I shouldn't
say it because they're not of age great drinks. So
twenty one. Yeah she does drink. Yes, but do you
think it's not as much as like what maybe we
did when we were in college? Agreed? I agree with that. Yes,
(18:47):
I think that they and especially when they get out
of college, right when they're like in the workforce. I
think it's just not that I don't want to say
it's not that important now I'm gonna give an example,
and when the girls were home for Thanksgiving. Before they
got home, they were like, all right, we talked to
all our friends. We going to the club on Wednesday,
(19:09):
on Friday, we're getting together, We're doing blah blah blah.
They didn't do none of it because they just didn't care,
Like it wasn't like a big deal. And I remember
when I came home from college, Oh that was a
big deal. Like we had to hang out, we had
to party, we had to drink, we had to do
all the things. So I just think they.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Just it's not that important. It's different, it's weird. So
it says they're trading in, like they're choosing healthier routines
over traditional nights out. So this generation is drinking less
and prioritize, prioritizing fitness and well being more than ever.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
And let me tell you what. They're also not into
not totally, but they're not into labels. Oh they're not
into Gucci, Louis Prada. They don't. My kids have gone
from there's stuff that I have that they would like
be like, oh can I wear this? And then they
would find out like a door, I had these boots
(20:05):
and she was like, oh, these are Valentino. She's like,
I can't wear this. This is ridiculous, Like what I mean.
I mean she looked it up, saw how much they
cost and was like, I cannot wear this. This is
just no, no, no, like it was a bad taste
in her mouth. Really. Yes. So I one time was
Grace's birthday and I was and I was in the
(20:26):
Louis Vuitton store and I said I was going to
buy her like a little wallet on a chain. I
called the twins and I said which one should I get?
They were like, she don't want that? Why doesn't she
want this? This is? This is It's actually a nice
little gift. They were like, if you get it, mom,
make sure it has no lv's on it. Like they
just don't. Oh wow, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Oh that's so interesting. I find my kids are kind
of divided. Like Corey, if he sees something designer sitting around,
He's going to like put it on, and you know,
but then I'd be like, you're not walking out of
the house with that, Like I just I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
I feel a certain type.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Of way about teenagers wearing designer labels, right, So I'm
like no, but Carter will be like totally not into it.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Yeah, so that's interesting. Maybe when they get old or older,
they might be into it, but they're not that they
if they give me a list of things that they want,
they've never asked me for designer anything. They don't care
about it at all. Oh that's so interesting. Yeah, yeah,
because I would think.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
I know, I got my first Gucci bag when I
was in college.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Okay, I don't think I didn't. I didn't care about
it before then, So maybe they just haven't hit it.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Well they're in college now, but yeah, maybe they just
haven't gotten to that point yet. Yes, I didn't really
care about designer stuff before college.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Yeah I don't. I don't know either, but I'm happy
about it. I'm not complaining.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Yeah that's great, that's great, and I mean, I mean
nowadays everything is just looks nice anyway, Like you can
get cute stuff.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
From Zara and she totally wherever totally and they're fine. Yeah,
I'm a door needed some shoes, some like little black
pat and leather shoes, so I gave her mind. She's like,
mom needs a Prada and I'm like yeah, and she
was like, I can't wear these like like, I'm supposed
to bring these to school and supposed to wear them.
(22:15):
I think it's how other people are going to respond, right, So,
like who you think you are? You? You know, why
are you? You were a teenager walking around with Prada? Yeah? Well,
I mean you know that saved me for going to
the I hadn't warn the shoes. But it's either I'm
giving them to a door or they're going to like
second hand. Yeah, yeah, no, I get that. I get that. Anyway. Okay,
(22:38):
we have stuff to we have stuff to talk about,
we have stuff to read here. Okay, so somebody sent
us what is this? Somebody sent us the questions? Okay,
this is from Amy. How do we know because I know?
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Oh here it is so Amy Cohen, our friend Amy
who's getting married.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Okay, remember Amy?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
She wrote in She says, hello, ladies, I'm listening to
episode two oh four where you guys try to figure
out the seven Continents and you say you should take
a ged ged test. Try taking the US citizenship test.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Yes, thank god, we are already citizens. Yes, yes, yes,
thank god, she said.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
I have included a copy of the updated test that
includes twenty eight additional questions that were added to it
this year. I work at an immigration law firm and
I send this pdf out almost on a daily basis.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Love you girls.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
You're bestie from Annapolis. Amy, And she said, ps, did
you get my weddings saved the date?
Speaker 2 (23:33):
I think we did, Amy, I gotta look for it.
Did it pass? It must not have okay, Amy, we comment,
send it again, Yes, send it again. We can look
for it. Okay.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
So there are one hundred and twenty questions on this test. Yeah,
which we're not going to go over all. No, we're
not going to go all over them. This is and
it they cover important topics about American government and history. Yes,
it is an oral test. And the officer will ask
you to twenty out of the onewenty eight questions.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Oh damn it. It's like they just pick. Yes, they
don't and you don't get a heads up. It's to
which one. So you got to study this test, the
whole thing, and you're only gonna get asked twenty of them.
You must answer at least twelve questions correctly to pass
the twenty twenty five tests. Okay, I feel better. And
this is a this is before a judge.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
Right, They just say it's like a citizen an immigration officer.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Okay, so it's an officer. So let's see.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
So, but this is an oral test, it's not multiple choice.
So they they ask you the question, you got to
know to answer.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Oh okay. So, but some of these are a little
like convoluted. For instance, who does a US senator represent
the state that it that they're from? Yes, it says
(25:00):
citizens of their state or people of their state. Okay,
so I guess what did you say? You said the state? Yeah,
so you might have got that wrong. Oh right, okay,
so I'm like, it's you have I'm sure you have
to get it exactly right, right, yeah, so the people
of the state.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Yeah, okay, so you do you know this question? How
many amendents does the US Constitution have?
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Forty six? You just made that up? No, because there's
there's a nineteenth Amendment, there's a fourteenth Amendment. There's not
a twentieth amendment. So maybe nineteen twenty seven. Oh I

it lists all the things. Do you want to be
more specific? It lists like the rules and regulations the
governing body? No. Oh.

Judicial, executive, legislatives. Oh my goodness, y'all know, I'm gonna
Citi sindh born here. Oh god, that's yes, I did, Yes,

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Okay, I'll just give one more. What part of the
federal government writes laws?
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Rights? The laws? I think that's the Congress, Congressional.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Okay, so there's like three answers here. Okay, it says Congress, Yeah,
it says let us or national legislature in the legislative branch.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Yeah, that's Congress.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Okay, So that's all I wonder if you just say
one of these answers.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
It depends on who's asking. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
So there's nineteen pages of this tests and the questions
get like harder and harder. Yeah, but yes, right, I don't,
I don't.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
It's a lot. Well, but if you knew that you
were going to do the test to study for study, yeah,
you're gonna know the answers you be able to get
that you're going to study for it. Yeah. Who Okay,
So this is from how do you say that is? Jahanna?
Let me say yeh Hannah Hannahhanna. This is from Ihannah
(29:33):
Bains buys Bains buys bays something. First of all, I
love you, Jaseelle, that's what it says. And Robin with
the heart. My question is for Gazelle, whatever happened to
your website? Your website, my website, whatever happened to it?
Did you have a website? I think I might have
had a website for eight minutes. I don't really recall,
(29:55):
but if I did have one, websites are they cost
money to I mean, keep up? I'm writing yeah, you
gotta keep like the domain. Yeah, and I have my domains. Okay,
but why would why do you need why why would
I need a website?
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (30:09):
I feel like you don't need one. You have Instagram.
I have Instagram, I have social media. Yeah, so a
website is dead. Now who has a website? Yeah? What
did you want her to do on her website? Yeah?
And but who has a website? Like, does have a website?
Speaker 1 (30:21):
I feel like people you have a website if you're
like and say, you could be like an influencer, right, yeah,
and it's more so for Okay, So some people have website.
They have recipes on their website, They have.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
Like their little blogs.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
People write blogs and on their blog posts they kind
of tie it to something that they're like selling or
pushing or promoting.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Okay, let me see Beyonce's website. She has a website. Well,
of course you have the website. What else you.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
If you're like a content creator, you could use that
website to attract brands.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Okay, I like that. Yeah, I think I think Beyonce
should have a website because on her site she has
like her homepage, she has her tour, she has shop
like you can buy something. She has her music, her perfume,
Blue Ivy has a little section here. Okay, so yes,
so I get all of that. I don't feel the
need for a website. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
I think that's more for someone who's more so like
doing like blogs and content creating and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Yeah. Yeah, but I don't fair enough one. Yeah, okay,
this is from Adam. Okay, is it High Green Eyed Bandits?
Speaker 1 (31:39):
Just watch the episodes back in Lol at you being
surprised someone from Idaho watching you. R HP is watched
all over the world. You don't even know currently watching
from my homeland. Slovakia in Eastern Europe already for years.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
That's wild slovakiava. I don't even know where that is.
What is that near Europe?
Speaker 1 (32:00):
Up?
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Eastern Europe? So like is eastern Russia? Is it? I
would I say Italy.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
Italy's on the coast, so Italy would be Western Europe,
so Slovakia would be If it's Eastern Europe, I would
think that's closer to Russia like Ukraine. Oh wow, love
all miss Robbin or Archp and Giselle. You make me
laugh every week so hard. Keep doing what you're doing,
and I know your shady asses. Ask if we have
Bravo in Slovakia.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Yah, that's what we just said. Yeah he said nope,
Oh but he's still watching. Okay, so wait, how's he watching?
I don't illegally, he might be watching on Are we
on YouTube? Not? Okay? Definitely reason to be shady? Yes, away,
so about yeah, let's talk about a how you watching
in Slovakia? Right if you don't have Bravo, If you
don't have Bravo or or the equivalent of like hey
(32:50):
you or something like that. But reasonably shady has a
YouTube page? Yes, we do, by the way, subscribe, check
out all the things. And we like our YouTube commentators. Yes,
are YouTube are YouTube audience. You guys are very.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Involved, like you really like get into it. Yes, and
you tell us your opinions on everything we're talking about.
So we appreciate you all we do. Do we need
to give them a name?
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Are YouTubers are reasonably shady tubers? Shady tubers, shubers, reasonably subers,
super I love it. Okay, that's what they are. Yes,
so shoobers we'll see on YouTube and we know and
we appreciate your commentary. Because Robin explained to me, you
(33:38):
guys are actually watching the whole episode as opposed to
like clips on on Instagram on Instagram or TikTok or whatever.
So you have, you guys have a larger perspective of
like whatever we're talking about as opposed to and by
the way, the clips speak clipped up like take it out.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
Oh yeah, you're not reading the whole story.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Yes, so we appreciate, are you reasonably? You shapers? Shooss?
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Okay, real quick, did you hear the story? So Leonardo
DiCaprio when he was younger, Yeah, he was getting into
acting and his agent wanted him to change his name
because his name was too like unique, and they wanted
him to change.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
His name to Lenny Williams. It's his real name, Leonardo DiCaprio.
I don't believe that. You believe that. I mean, that's
what That's what I read. I think. So, so he
decided to stick with Leonardo.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
Yep, he decided to stick with his real name. And
I'm just thinking, like if he was Lenny Williams.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
Well Williams is not. I always find like these people
that changed their names, their first and last name are
two first names.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
Yeah, right, So no, this is his Okay, his Leonardo
DiCaprio's full name is Leonardo Wilhelm DiCaprio. Oh, okay, so
that's his real name, but his agent wanted him to
change it to.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
Lenny Lenny Williams. That's not a good change. It's not
a good change. I don't think he would have the
same career if he was Lenny Williams. I think Lenny
Dennis would be great. Really, Yes, why it rolls off
the time? No, see don't.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
I just can't imagine him being Lenny anything but Leonardo DiCaprio,
do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (35:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Like now, Yeah, it just made him like more interesting
or more intriguing. Like you hear that name and you're like,
you pay attention to him a little bit more, And
he looks a little sexier, he looks a little more handsome,
he looks a little more intriguing, okay than Lenny William
Lenny Williams.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Imagine if Rihanna kept her real name, which is what again, Robin, Robin,
Robin what's her middle name, Rihanna? Yes, okay, Robin Rihanna
fenty So like I imagine if she was Robin.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Yes, she would never you don't like Robin. No, okay,
So which would you change your name to? Page? Really yeah,
page Dixon or page brag? Well, I mean I would
have been Paige page brag. That doesn't sound right. I
like page brag. I like page brag better than page Dixon.
(36:20):
Really yeah. Page brag is kind of like sophisticated, like
just the two one syllable yes word page brag. Yeah.
I like yeah, but yeah. Always wanted to be a
page Okay. Wow, I thought I was going to be.
When I was younger. I thought I was a good Laura,
but not now, not Laura. I don't know. For whatever
(36:42):
reason I thought because people were like, oh, if you
change your name, I was like, Laura, I don't listen,
no listen. But my parents had all kinds of names
for me. Really, I think I've discussed this before. No Sunshine, okay, no,
you've not sunshine Sunshine. I don't know where my mother
got that from. My mother's sisting now she's gonna kill me.
(37:02):
My father was in I did tell you this before.
My father, when my mother I think, was getting ready
to go into labor, he was traveling. He was in Tugaloo, Mississippi.
My dad wanted to name me. I promise you. Oh yes, Tugaloo.
They're gonna call me Galuo for sure, or Tugi Tugi togi. Yeah,
(37:27):
so Sunshine they were gonna call me Sonny, which I like, Okay, Yeah,
so I could have handled Sunshine. Yeah, but Tugaloo is wild, yes, like,
why would you do that to a child? Yeah? Yeah, no,
that's crazy. I think Gelle is pacly. You look like
a Jiselle. Yes, I could have looked like a Sonny. Yeah,
I gotta I gotta handled. I gotta pull that off.
(37:48):
But anyway, Dad, love you. But Tugloo would have been wrong. Wrong,
I say he was. My mother had a smack him
day with like, we ain't doing that. He was joking. Yes,
but my mother saw Giselle the and she likes the name,
and so she was like, h name her chisel. Yeah
all right. So this is from thank you. This is
from Rubster v Happy two hundredth episodes. You ladies are amazing,
(38:14):
the only podcast I will never miss. I have been
listening to you, ladies since the beginning. I love you
both so much. I need both of your advice to
find friends. I'm thirty and I am soon to be
a mommy, I realize how I don't have friends. When
my husband and I were planning our gender reveal, I
(38:34):
have no one to invite, not even family. Now I'm
just so sad that I have no one, just my hubby.
Please help advice advise on how to find friendships like yours.
I love you both, Ruby. I like the name Ruby.
By the way. Yes, I'm sorry to hear this is easy.
(38:55):
This is an easy fix. Yeah, yeah, totally sorry to
hear that. And I'm wondering why maybe they moved.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
Yeah, like is there a backstory, like why you don't
have friends?
Speaker 2 (39:05):
Now?
Speaker 1 (39:05):
Did you not have friends growing up? And then a
lot of times right, Like so when I think about
my friends growing up, they all have moved away, Like
all my friends that I grew up with live in
a different state. Okay, so then now I have you
know I made friends in college? Yes, I made friends.
(39:27):
So I think where you might want to go with
this or where we're going with this is you said
you're you're having a child, so that's like the perfect
place to perfect friends. Whether you go to like the
mommy and me classes tofly do mommy and me?
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Yes, yes?
Speaker 1 (39:43):
Or if you put your child in activities, whether it's
I don't know if it's a girl or a boy.
But if you have, you know, put your girl in
dance classes and make friends with the dance moms. If
you put your boy, if you're if you put them
in sports, you can make friends with the sports moms.
You can make friends with the school moms if you
want to get involved in But.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
That's that's down the road. School moms are down the road.
Yeah yeah, I think now mommy and me is like perfect, yeah, yeah,
but only talk to the moms that like you feel
like they want you to talk to them, because a
lot of people talk to me and I didn't want
to talk because I just was tired. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (40:15):
So but there that's the room, right Yeah, yeah, definitely
says the room, because there are like you'll find people
who are eager to meet other moms totally, even like
at the my kids preschool day daycare, the mom's there too,
Like I'm you know, no one became friendly with. So
there's some that are like eager to meet other moms
because you guys share something in common. You have a
(40:36):
child that's the same age, y'all live in the same
a going through the same thing, right, sleep deprive yep.
So you're gonna start meeting a lot of friends there.
I mean, I can honestly say, like Corey's the football
moms that I that Corey grew up, you know, when
Corey grew up playing football, all the football moms. I'm
actually gonna get together with them this Friday. Oh nice, Yeah,
(40:57):
like I love that. So they we've all and formed
a nice little friendship. And so I think you'll have
plenty of opportunities to build friendships. My cousin she met
a group of girls in her Mommy and Me class,
and her kids are now twenty five, twenty seven years old,
and she's still friends with these ladies.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (41:16):
So you know, just be excited because I think you
have an opportunity to meet some good people. But also
don't be offended if there are people who are kind
of like distant, because you know.
Speaker 2 (41:26):
They might they might have it's not personal, right, they
might have a full life. They might have, you know,
a busy schedule and all the friends that they can handle.
And so you know, you'll know the ones that are
looking for friendship and the ones that are kind of
like not Yeah, I'm just here for the playtime, right.
And I remember when I started the gym that I
go to now, like the gym had just opened, so
(41:48):
like everybody was new. So with those ladies, like we
would go to lunch, they would they help me a lot.
They have no idea how much they would help me,
because these were like the Jewish mafia moms, like they
knew everything everything, your hair, your botogs, your doctors, doctors,
you're pediatrician, you're like if you want like a new
(42:09):
nutrition something something, they just knew everybody. If I needed
a landscape or anybody, I would call them and they'd
be like, oh and they would send me like three people.
They would like, choose this one, so make some friends. Yeah, yes,
you'll be all right. Be out there and grats on
the baby. Congrats on the baby. Oh I'm sorry, Last,
but not least, feel free to name the baby either
(42:29):
either Robin or Giselle, preferably Giselle. All right, if it's
a boy. If it's a boy, Oh, Robin, are you
about to read that? You did you have one? No?
(42:50):
I thought that was okay? Yeah, sure, oh okay, oh okay,
sure one more really quick? Okay, Hi, Robin and Jaelle
This is from Jessica. Absolutely love the pod.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
You cracked me up. Big fan of y'all's dynamic and friendship.
I was doing a rewatch of rhop and stumbled upon
the famous Karen press conference episode which she discussed raised
tax wos.
Speaker 2 (43:10):
What season was that? Three? Season three? Three? Okay, those
were the good old days. We talk about it all
the time, so funny, like something happened and oh the
when it was a windy moment that she just got
annihilated and she was like, oh, those were the good
old days. I'm like, yeah, we can look back on
it now. At the time, it wasn't the good old days,
right right? We didn't know it then.
Speaker 1 (43:32):
My question is for Jiselle, where and how did you
come up with the free Uncle Ben T shirt idea?
Did you make the T shirt in your home with
a circuit? I don't know what that means lol. That moment,
that moment is TV gold. Hashtag free uncle Ben, hashtag
tax reform, hashtag free Karen, hashtag God Bless the Hugerts.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
That's regards. Why did I do that? Is the question? Well,
you had some help, yes, yeah, I don't think it
was my It was not my idea. It was my idea.
Speaker 1 (44:03):
It was not my idea, okay, it was it was
someone else's idea.
Speaker 2 (44:07):
Yes, and you ran with it, and I was like, Giselle,
do not do that. Do not. Robin did not want
me to do that as all. I think they were
trying to make us both wear a T shirt and
I was like, oh no, that's for her. Yeah, And
Robin did not want to participate in any in any
any of it. So then I decided I was gonna
go in nice. That's why I didn't like have it on.
(44:29):
I had the jacket on, but then Karen didn't answer
no questions, so I did to jacket off. But like,
had I known then that that teacher would be like
such a hit a hit end quotes iconic, I'll say
in the Bravo verse, I would have kept it. You
didn't keep it. I threw that away. Well, let mean
I don't okay, I don't want to say I threw
it away. I'm saying I don't know where that thing is.
Speaker 1 (44:51):
Oh my god, you probably donated it and someone somebody
should have it and like put it up for auction.
Speaker 2 (44:58):
But people come to Bravo and they've made their own
which is so crazy, which I love, Thanks guys, But
I could I could have sold that for like a
whole lot of money. Yes, so anyway, you didn't keep it?
I did not. I have no idea where it is.
And I've been asked a million times about that shirt,
like from the upper from the upper would have kept?
Speaker 1 (45:18):
I kept because they probably asked for it for to
display it at Bravo con.
Speaker 2 (45:22):
Totally. I kept when Karen gave me like the list
of etiquette. Did it that was season one? I have that?
But did we stopped doing all of these things things
like gay Yeah yeah, and pranks and whatnot. So yeah,
we're going to get back to that. I wonder if
I still have my pizza outfit? Ah, the pizza. Yeah,
(45:44):
you should have those dad pants, those dad jeans. You
had dad jeans? Did you have a wig on? I
had a oh go tea? Yeah, I had a go tea,
a mustache and some glasses. I don't know what my
wolverine wig had. Iry whose idea was that that was?
I feel like that was our idea. Yeah, yeah, that
(46:06):
was our idea. We had to convince them to let
us do it. Uh huh, yeah, they did not the
producers did not want us to do that. They thought
we won't get shot. I don't know, y'all are just
rolling up to Karen's house unannounced in the middle of
the night in Virginia. Karen lived in Virginia with its
like now, hell no, we are not taking an l
on this. Y'all want to get totally like the someone's
