Hello, welcome back to the SheRoom Podcast.
We're your hosts. She's my introduce yourself race. I don't know what to call myself.
Oh my gosh, we went over there.
Okay, I'm your auntie and I'm yay.
(00:20):
And we're your hosts for today. The SheRoom Podcast. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.
Before we get started, y'all. OK, if I look a little bit uncomfortable, I know I'm cute.
But if I look a little bit uncomfortable because my daughter thinks that I'm
her age or something, y'all got to see this split. Right.
(00:41):
I don't know if you could see it sitting back up a little bit so they can see
this high split that you can't even get on camera.
OK, I'm a picture of it because you have to. I feel like, y'all,
I need one of those mothers of the church to come and lay something across my lap.
(01:02):
I got the split going all up my thighs and things.
Just because she thinks that other people think we're sisters.
So she thinks I should be dressing like her. Y'all know.
Then she said that I can't be buttoning my clothes all up to the neck and stuff.
Well, if you're going for it, the nun look, that's fine.
(01:23):
I told you that's I'm not trying to
be a nut but dang I'm not in my
20s I'm biting it up to the top and I'm definitely not gonna bring it all the
way down there I got a little bit more cleavage than you do I'm just saying
girl have them bad boys anyway so our 12 year old producer is off today.
(01:47):
Y'all, she's been fired. She has not been fired. You cannot fire my baby. I fired her.
You cannot fire my other sister. No, listen.
So she really loves her grandma. So she's visiting her grandma today.
No. Tell the truth. Shame the devil.
She tried to get out of chores and cleaning and stuff. That's all.
(02:12):
And she does love her grandma. That's her best friend. But she's not fired,
y'all. She'll be back for the next episode.
But to fill in, we have Sydney.
She's 15, almost 16, and she's filling in as our producer today. So welcome, Sydney.
Sydney, say hi. You don't have to come on camera. Just say hi.
(02:33):
Okay. All right. So she's going to keep us on track because I told her I'm not
going to be filming all night.
All right. So we have some things we want to talk about today.
Day we won't start but with fun stuff or serious
stuff what we won't start with oh let's go ahead and
start with the serious topics all right so some of the things I want to talk
(02:54):
about this was disturbing me I was watching a news story right and this woman
had a miscarriage she had a late state miscarriage.
I believe she was, I think she was 22 weeks pregnant or 21 weeks pregnant.
I'm going to have to look it up. But anyway, so she had been charged.
(03:19):
She actually was charged, y'all. She went to jail for having a miscarriage.
Can you believe this? Why?
Okay. This is what they said. First of all, in the state, and I don't recall,
Cindy, while we're talking about this, Look it up. See if we can find that story. Find out.
Remind me what state that was in.
But in the state she's in, apparently abortion is against the law now.
(03:43):
And so I guess they felt like that she was intentionally.
Trying to lose her baby, maybe. So this is what I read. And I watched her new story.
So she went to the doctor because she started cramping.
And the doctor let her know at the hospital that she was having a miscarriage
(04:07):
and that there was nothing that they were going to at, going to be able to do to save the baby.
So at this point, she was experiencing some anxiety and different things like that.
So she decided to leave the hospital and go home.
I think she went home. She was at the hospital and she went home a couple of times, right?
(04:30):
Anyway, she ended up having the miscarriage while she was at home.
Remember that the doctors had had said that this was not a viable pregnancy.
That's what they already said. Anyway, at home, she had the miscarriage and
the fetus actually ended up falling into the toilet or whatever.
(04:51):
It wasn't a viable pregnancy.
The fetus was like 21, 22 weeks gestation.
Anyway, so after she had the miscarriage, she went back to the hospital because
she was concerned about hemorrhaging.
So the nurse ended up calling the police on her for not returning for not returning
(05:13):
with the baby now how can she return with the baby that was not a viable pregnancy.
You know, and it's 21, 22 weeks. What was she supposed to do?
Bring in this. It was just a tiny baby.
It wasn't a baby baby. If you've ever seen a size of a 21, 22 week size fetus, it's real small.
(05:40):
Right. And she was already told that the pregnancy was not viable anyway.
There was no way the baby was going to survive. right so
she got charged with this
but what did she do with like what
where is the baby then after that she left the
baby she didn't get the baby out because she was traumatized
(06:01):
it had a lot to do with being traumatized because
and and i'm sure a lot of
people don't put their themselves in their shoes they're just
automatically wanting to jump down somebody's throat
because it sounds horrific horrific you
know the just the situation in general like she
lost the baby but if they they've already
(06:22):
said the pregnancy isn't viable and
all of that um this is
disturbing to me at first i'd say you
know i believe every woman should be able to decide what's right for her right
we can't judge another woman's decision i am very careful about trying to make
(06:46):
those type of judgments because we don't understand where a person is in their life and.
It just concerns me that at this day and age, even though we're in 2024,
y'all, that women could still go to jail and maybe be charged with murder or
(07:07):
manslaughter for having a miscarriage or an abduction.
That is just shocking news. I actually didn't know about this story.
But what are your thoughts about it? We want to know. What are your thoughts? thoughts.
She's so lost to a long story short, she ended up finding this and the charges
(07:28):
were ended up, they, uh, the charges were dropped.
But my concern is if they did that to her, who else might they try this with?
I think we, as women, we have to be careful about who's deciding deciding things about our lives.
(07:49):
I don't want someone who can't even have a baby, meaning men,
to decide what's best for my situation.
That's concerning. Well, again, we want to know your thoughts about this topic.
So drop some comments below. Let me know what you think.
(08:11):
So have y'all washed the handmaids too? I have not, but I've heard that it's good.
You have to watch the Handmaid's Tale. I heard from her that it's good multiple
times. It is a great show. It's scary.
And it is so relevant to today's age. Sydney, have you watched it?
(08:31):
Okay. I've heard of it. Even your dad likes it.
Anyway, you have to look it up. Basically, in the show...
It started off with women having a lot of freedom and opportunities and living their lives.
And then it ends up to a point where these women become servants, basically.
(08:56):
They're not in control of their own bodies or their own decisions.
These handmaids are, I don't give too much away, but these handmaids are forced
to have babies for other people and different things like that.
So look it up you have to watch hulu yes
i believe it is on hulu okay i'll be checking it out
(09:18):
check a couple episodes and then we come back on
the next show let's talk about it okay and see how
relevant it is i'll watch the first couple of episodes yeah
it's scary i mean because
i feel like sometimes i feel like everything scares her though
no it's for real anything that's a
(09:38):
little little bit darker theme like she does
not know like any type of scary what i mean
by that is not a scary show what i mean is the concept because i feel like sometimes
we are so close to perhaps having that type of environment well they say art
(09:58):
imitates reality so yeah and i and And then y'all, I have four daughters.
Four. And that scares me to think that they could live in a society like that.
So I wouldn't want any of you, any of the four daughters to really live like that.
So I want you and Sidney to check it out.
(10:20):
I know it's definitely too much for Kara. It might be a little bit too much for Peyton to watch.
But y'all check it out. We'll talk about it in the next episode.
Let me know what you think. All right, producer. So what do we have next?
We have the groundhog did not see its shadow.
Do you believe this? I mean, do you believe in those things?
(10:41):
The groundhog didn't see its shadow.
So wait a minute, wait a minute. Because when I was speaking to my youngest
sister about it, she came home from school and she was talking about how the
groundhog didn't see its shadow.
And I'm like, okay, so that means...
Or no, no, no. She said the groundhog, yeah, didn't see its shadow.
(11:06):
So that means we have more winter.
What, six more weeks of winter? But that's what she said. I was like,
no. She was wrong. It means that spring is coming soon.
Well, let me tell you, Kairos knew for sure. Because I could think Kairos.
That was Kairos. Kairos didn't tell you that?
She told me that we were going to have an early spring.
(11:27):
It was either she got the shadow part wrong or. Okay.
Yeah but anyway so the
idea is if the groundhog doesn't
see its shadow they were supposed to
have an early spring we're in georgia and
here in georgia i can't tell if it's going
to be an early spring or an extended winter winter
(11:49):
because it just depends on the day you
know what i think i got it wrong and the
nine-year-old was right i think because it makes more sense
for him to see his shadow because when it's sunny
you see your shot like like not only
if the ground hope sees its shadow then
that means it's going to be an extended winter producer look
(12:11):
it up see who's right here that's what i'm sure they're right but it just logically
you know what it's more i'm gonna go with the third grader because you haven't
been in a school in so long i'm telling you first of all don't come on here
trying so much because not smarter than the third way.
I'm feeling how you are right now. You got this split all up.
(12:34):
If it doesn't see a shadow, that means spring is on its way.
Yeah, if it doesn't see a shadow, it's going to be an early spring. It doesn't make sense.
Never mind. I guess the light does chase away shadows, but I don't know.
If it's already dull outside, you don't have a shadow. Look at her, y'all.
(12:55):
Just overthink. Anyway, we're going to go with it. I don't know what, why do we even do this?
I'm sure, you know, I probably looked it up at one point. Do you know why we do this, producer?
Just look up real quick. Why do we do these groundhog and shadow things?
And while she's looking that up, let's talk about a few ways that we will be preparing for spring.
(13:20):
One thing that my mom loves to do at her house, she absolutely loves to decorate
every season, especially Christmas,
which it took so long to take down the Christmas decorations this year.
Because she put up like five trees and they were pretty. They were gorgeous,
(13:40):
but it was just a lot, okay?
It was nice, though. It was festive.
But the takedown, though. Yeah.
And nobody told her to put those up. So. Well, I do like to decorate.
And because it makes everything feel new.
And I like to decorate depending upon the season. So I definitely want to do it for spring.
(14:04):
Yes. But the problem is the house is quickly becoming like a home goods store.
Yeah. We have a whole storage full of decor.
Yeah. Yeah. So she has a whole storage, not a closet. It's like a room.
Yeah. And then I just forget what I have. It's like going shopping all over
(14:29):
again. It is like shopping to the storage room.
Because I came over and decorated, helped decorate like different parts for
Thanksgiving and then Christmas.
And I was pulling stuff from her storage room. And she was like,
where did you get this from?
What store did you get this from? I'm like, the store?
(14:50):
Trish. I forgot I even got it, y'all.
See, she'll go ahead and get things early, like when things go on sale, like after the holiday.
And that's a good little tip, too. If you guys want to get more into decorating
during the season, start feeling
a little festive, the best prices are right after that season ends.
(15:13):
I think your earrings are looking kind of springy. Those are cute. I got these forever ago.
See, I'm not really a big jewelry person like that. Yeah, but those are cute.
You don't want to know about Groundhog Day? Yeah, go ahead. Okay, sir.
It is related to the lore that clear weather on the Christian festival of Candlemas
(15:34):
forbodes a prolonged winter.
Okay, can we get an English version?
So what does all that mean? That's Wikipedia.
I thought I talked to you better about technology sources. She's a Wikipedia fan.
I think, long story short, we continue a lot of traditions that we don't even
(15:56):
know why we do it. Y'all, what are your thoughts about the Groundhog Day?
Do you believe in it? So it says that they're related to two other holidays, Halloween and May Day.
Who celebrates May Day now? I don't even know. I haven't heard about that.
I feel like I should know, growing up in the 80s.
(16:19):
I'm just skipping through this, by the way, so you guys might want to do your own research.
But we didn't do any pre-planning. It traces the roots of Groundhog Day to the
same cycle of pre-Christian festivals that gave us those two celebrations.
We're going to have to look more into that because Halloween,
Christianity, I'm not sure. Those two things.
Anyway, y'all know. Leave. Let's talk about it in the comments,
(16:43):
okay? Next topic, producer.
Preparing for spring season. Well, before we do that, is there a certain color
you think is really big for springing 2024?
24 whatever i feel like
wearing i i dress how
i want like you know but some people say
this is gonna be the color for the spring this year and i guess that i mean
(17:08):
i fashion fashion people even really now in that day and age i don't know some
people still believe you can't wear white white after Labor Day, but,
I'm in white Is this after Labor Day or before Labor Day?
It's the beginning of the year, so It's still after Labor Day, last Labor Day.
(17:29):
I forgot to tell you, you didn't respond to my text when I said a viewer watched
us and she said, I'm sure you already know this, but you guys, she's your twin.
She said, meaning you, my twin. Well, I don't think you texted me that.
I did text you that. She does read my texts, yeah.
But anyway, what are your thoughts about that looking like your mama?
(17:53):
Who has thoughts about that when you just heard it your whole life?
It's you just accept it as yes. Yeah, it just is what it is.
And your mama's being, your mama fine, girl.
Ain't no problem with that. Okay, it looks like your mama.
Just don't be all corny. Okay.
Now, next we're going to talk about the importance of living with a good attitude, I think.
(18:15):
I think living with the, your attitude is going to impact your health.
That's one of the things, right? So if you, first of all, everybody is going
to have a bad day sometimes.
Sometimes I think that's inevitable, whether you're older, younger,
black or white, rich or poor, a man or woman, you're going to have a bad day
(18:38):
and your attitude is going to reflect that bad day.
Sometimes I've met anyone who is just perfect.
You can brag a little bit, mom. I'm next after. Okay.
According to who? Not according to your siblings. Siblings are haters, too.
(18:58):
I think, though, that when a negative thought tries to persist in your mind
for too long, you really have to, what the Bible says, cast those things down.
Because it can really start impacting your long-term goals, your long-term vision,
your health, your appearance, your relationships.
(19:19):
Because who wants to be around somebody who is negative all the time,
right? Thanks, Sydney. Yes.
Because people want to get away from those people. What do you think?
I think that's 100% right. However you choose to start your day is going to
be how you go out into the world and bring your energy out into the world.
(19:41):
And so don't. I like when Tabitha, you know, the vegan woman. Tabitha Brown.
Hey, Tab. So she always says. Because what is the exact phrase?
I'm not sure. But she always says, have a good day.
And if you can't have a good day, don't go messing up somebody else's. You never know.
(20:04):
Somebody else bringing positivity into the world may help the next person.
Yeah, because positivity can be contagious. And so can negativity, too.
So if you're around someone who's negative all the time, then I think that is
contagious. It'll eventually, you're going to be impacted by it.
We still have to understand everybody's going to have a bad day.
(20:26):
But just try to always stay positive.
I think when you're positive, good things will follow after you.
True. All right, Producer Sid, what we got, girl? We're yawning on your job.
A healthy lifestyle, what it means to you.
What does a healthy lifestyle mean to you? Well, that kind of ties into the last topic.
(20:51):
You know, a lot of it starts in the mind. You want to, as we were saying, be positive.
That's how you first want to start your day. But you also want to eat well.
You want to get into more food knowledge about what's harmful to the body and
what could be affecting you that you never even knew.
And also working out is always a good thing.
(21:14):
Even, what do they say, 30 minutes a day? Yeah And Which Is.
It's not really that bad, but sometimes we get so busy, like I know I do,
that we find it difficult to even get that in.
You go out and about on a day-to-day basis.
Park your car far if you have to. Now inside is okay.
(21:37):
And do a little quick step to the entrance of wherever you're going. Right.
Maybe even a light jog. You may be looking a little bit like, what are you running?
But that's one of the things we really want to get into too and maybe you'll
see an episode soon of us at the gym we want to really get our workout on and
(21:57):
just really present a healthier lifestyle on the channel so if you want to follow
us on that journey make sure you're subscribing.

actually do some on the show hmm she can't
do push push-ups though or chin-ups so
i'll have to work my way up to that i can't do any chin-ups let's
be kind remember that let's be kind all right
next sydney who are the biggest
(22:38):
heroes in your life biggest heroes I know
a lot of people try they name celebrities and people
they look up to honestly the heroes in my life
would really just be my family my
family and those who are closest to me because they are the ones who are going
to make the greatest impact on me my mom is one of my heroes too oh don't do
(23:01):
all that but just because I've you know been there like she said I think the first episode,
you talked a little bit about how you had me and my older brother at a younger age.
And so we, you know, were there watching her step into who she is now.
(23:22):
So, yeah, she deserves all those accolades.
Oh, I sure do. Sini, who's your hero? Oh.
My family. Good answer. Okay, I haven't been following. I didn't follow the Trump trial.
But let me tell you what I have been following is the prosecutor assigned to
(23:46):
the Trump trial, Fannie Willis.
Yes, Fannie Willis.
Oh, gosh. So I've been watching this for the last few days.
And in case you don't know, Fannie Willis is the prosecutor out of New York
who was working the Trump trial.
(24:08):
Anyway, come to find out, here's the allegation.
So Fannie Willis was seeing a married lawyer who was, I believe they both were
judges at one point in time too.
Anyway which i guess
is morally wrong but that's another
story but what they're saying is legally
(24:30):
wrong is she brought she then brought
him on the trial with her he's the assistant attorney and so now they're saying
that she did so many illegal things by i guess finances some of the So he's
Donald Trump's assistant.
(24:51):
No, he's the assistant prosecutor.
Yeah, he's working with her.
And they're saying that that's, you know, basically that's her man or she dated him.
And she did date him. Here's where I am really bothered by what she did.
(25:14):
First of all, if you're going after Donald Trump, ex-president,
one of the biggest names out there when it comes to,
you know, we know the type of things he does and you already know that people
are going to come after you because you're going after him.
(25:36):
Why wouldn't you be as clean as possible?
Or, you know, why would you put yourself in a situation where they have something
to come against you with?
Why would you do that? I'm so bothered by
(25:56):
this because I think she puts a
bare light on the community i'm hoping
first of all i'm hoping all goes well with with her
and i'm hoping that what she's saying
about the timeline is accurate and
but there are some things that i just really disagree
with let me ask you this so are they
(26:19):
just mad that they're working together to take him down because what is it like
they would would they feel like I'd be colluding more to give him a sentence
like she doesn't have anybody to she doesn't have to argue against or for something
with like for instance if when the prosecutor is.
(26:39):
Say that they want to recommend this amount of
a sentence or stuff like that is that why well
they're on the same team but i know
but like yeah well i think it's more so first
of all they're looking for anything to overturn the
trial or have a mistrial or have the case thrown out you know what i'm saying
(27:00):
so what they're doing is they're using her situation they're basically saying
she She used some government money maybe to fund this relationship.
Like they took trips together. They did certain things and she gave him money,
allegedly, and things like that.
(27:20):
So even though they normally wouldn't care, but because she went after Trump,
they're looking for any dirt on her to get the case dismissed.
Right. And she gave them, they're basically trying to ruin her credibility.
Exactly. But, you know, she also has other cases going on, too.
(27:42):
I wonder if they would have done this, like, for those, when it came to those
other cases, like the Young Thug trial, the Rico case she has going on.
They wouldn't, but because we already know that when you go after Trump,
there's a loyal fan base.
I said, and I do say fan base, that will adamantly defend him, you know, and...
(28:11):
That's why I don't understand how she could not have known that this would be an issue.
I'm disappointed, honestly, in her decisions and in her behavior,
because she put herself in that situation knowing that this could be an issue.
I don't even know how she could think that they weren't going to dig this up.
(28:34):
Generation X is acting up.
Every generation, ma'am. Speaking of which, my generation has been acting up.
I told you about the comedians out there, the 50-plus comedians out there who
are doing social media battles.
You know, bad-mouthing each other. There's a whole lot of going on.
(28:55):
With Monique and, you know, it started with Cat Williams.
And then Monique and D.L. Hughley
got into it. And then they're going back and forth on social media.
It's just yeah i wonder y'all
out there i'm first of all i'm not 50
yet so don't put me in there i'm not usually for the drama
(29:15):
but i've been kind of enjoying it because generation x always has so much to
say about millennials and now look at you now yeah because yeah i and you know
i'm big on that because i i do think millennials and gen z or whatever they
call themselves are drama filk Look,
but how can I be in the oven?
(29:36):
Oh, I'll be back. And I'm back.
Right. Yeah. But yeah, I've been enjoying it because I'm like all this talking
that y'all have about millennials, this and millennials that.
But you know what else get on my nerves? Look at y'all. Look who's making the price right now.
(29:57):
It is kind of embarrassing. First of all, I'm not in the 50 plus club yet.
So don't throw me in there with them.
But I did watch them, you know, and I'm like.
I grew with them. So, yeah, I wish they would just calm down a little bit.
Because I think there should be, at some point when you're 50 plus,
(30:18):
there should be a level of wisdom and maturity that comes with that.
Fanny, Monique, all y'all other comedians out there who's been giving us entertainment,
you know, can't we all just get along?
Alone or can y'all calm down just a little bit
because y'all really giving us 40 plus euros
(30:39):
a bad light right now i'm just saying can we calm down just a little bit it's
called reparations now next topic next topic you know i saw a video just yesterday
of and i i love kelly roland i I think she's so pretty and talented, too.
And she was rocking her natural hair. She had a bog.
(31:02):
And it was just really cute. And it just reminded me, too, about the natural
hair movement with Black women.
Where are we now with the natural hair movement and Black women?
I know you, you started where your natural, well, you, at least you stopped
getting relaxers many, many moons ago. Yeah, I never really cared for them.
(31:26):
But you grew up during a time where everybody got relaxers. Yeah, it was a big thing.
And then I grew up in my teenage years where it was starting to be a thing where everybody stopped.
And I didn't, you know, for a while, it was just kind of like,
like my hair did start breaking off and stuff.
(31:47):
It took a while to reverse the damage. but I'm
so happy that I did stop getting those because
now well and you you started seeing
it back then too but for the longest time all
of these articles and you know lawsuits
now about women possibly getting
(32:08):
cancer from it and stuff like that and it's
like black women we don't need that we don't need
i our hair is beautiful and not
only that it's very versatile as well because i don't have a relaxer i've been
natural now since i had my youngest daughter who is nine so i've been natural
for nine years but i you can see it straightened out right now because i just
(32:30):
blow dry it out you use a flat iron if i wanted to wear straight which normally
i don't by the way Normally,
and she can attest to this, I wear my hair in its natural state, which is curly afro.
If we want to put a ponytail on, we can do that. We can get some braids.
I'm not even against weaves if we want to do that.
Whatever we want to do. But I am against, you know, hair relaxers because I
(32:55):
just think it's unnecessary and it can be dangerous.
And my daughters won't be getting anything.
And amen. But so kudos to you, Kelly Rowland, for rocking your natural hair.
I think more celebrity, if more celebrities did that, it could really be a great thing.
You know, she, Kelly Rowland, she also has, I think it's a movie.
(33:19):
Yeah, she has a movie coming out. It's called Mia Coppa. Is that how you pronounce it?
I don't know the name of it, but I am looking forward to seeing it.
Yeah, I know I'm going to see it. I haven't seen anything like necessarily about it.
But the other day I just saw that she had it. And I'm like, oh,
of course, I'm going to go see it.
But another thing about Kelly Rowland, I don't know if you guys have seen.
(33:41):
I don't know if you've seen.
But recently, Kelly Rowland was supposed to host with Hoda and Jenna.
Did you see that? And what happened? I did not see that.
So apparently, what they're saying is that there was some type of mess up where
they're trying to say that she ended up walking out at the last minute because
(34:05):
she wanted a different dressing room.
And I think they're trying to spin a story like that.
I haven't read too many details right now. But then she had gone on.
I just saw it today, but she went on another talk show.
And oh the hoda
and jenna show they had to have rita
(34:25):
or step in at the last minute and i think that that's
another picture they're trying to paint like that they constantly try to add
on to a black woman's image that they're difficult or you know aggressive or
hard to work with but there are plenty of people asking would they do that same
(34:46):
thing with taylor swift Swift.
So true. You know, I'm surprised by this because I, in all the years that I
was following Destiny's Child and then Kelly Rowland,
and I've never heard of any issue like that with Kelly Rowland.
I've never heard her to be a conflict person or to give anyone trouble.
(35:10):
So maybe it It was just a real genuine ask that they could have easily provided to her.
She went on the Sherry Shepard show.
And she was just speaking with her and giving her her accolades.
And so she didn't even go on to mention, like, you know, all this stuff.
(35:31):
But she was just giving Sherry Shepard
her accolades and saying that she's grateful for a space like this.
And she handled herself with so much grace.
We really want to know what you guys think about
this as well yeah because because kelly
roland is not a problematic person we've never seen her
(35:54):
you know in the media for wilding out
or yeah i mean there was many things that she could have been problematic about
but she never was you know like she could have given some tea about destiny
shout you know i'm sure she got some but she She didn't do that. So, oh, no.
(36:15):
Yo, Jess, what's going on? Let us know what you think about all the topics we discussed today.
Our inspirational person of the week is none other than Queen B herself, Beyonce.
And I wanted to just talk briefly about her crossover to country music as well.
(36:36):
Well, so she recently topped hot R&B and hip slash hip hop songs and hot country
songs on the Billboard charts. With the same song?
I don't know if it's the same song, but I'm sure it's different songs.
But she's on top with both the songs.
(36:59):
I think that's an amazing feat, especially being a Black artist.
Oftentimes now there are other black
country music artists and they don't really get
recognition like that because they can
often be classified you know put into one category or
told they they don't sound authentically
(37:20):
country but you know there is
a whole history behind country music and maybe we'll
get a little bit into that the next time but for
now Beyonce is our inspirational person in
a bit weak and yeah i really like her song yeah her country song so i want you
guys to stay tuned and follow us hit that subscribe button and comment what
(37:46):
topics you want to hear about next week yeah we'll see you next week thanks for tuning in.
Hello, welcome back to the SheRoom Podcast.
We're your hosts. She's my introduce yourself race. I don't know what to call myself.
Oh my gosh, we went over there.
Okay, I'm your auntie and I'm yay.
(00:20):
And we're your hosts for today. The SheRoom Podcast. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.
Before we get started, y'all. OK, if I look a little bit uncomfortable, I know I'm cute.
But if I look a little bit uncomfortable because my daughter thinks that I'm
her age or something, y'all got to see this split. Right.
(00:41):
I don't know if you could see it sitting back up a little bit so they can see
this high split that you can't even get on camera.
OK, I'm a picture of it because you have to. I feel like, y'all,
I need one of those mothers of the church to come and lay something across my lap.
(01:02):
I got the split going all up my thighs and things.
Just because she thinks that other people think we're sisters.
So she thinks I should be dressing like her. Y'all know.
Then she said that I can't be buttoning my clothes all up to the neck and stuff.
Well, if you're going for it, the nun look, that's fine.
(01:23):
I told you that's I'm not trying to
be a nut but dang I'm not in my
20s I'm biting it up to the top and I'm definitely not gonna bring it all the
way down there I got a little bit more cleavage than you do I'm just saying
girl have them bad boys anyway so our 12 year old producer is off today.
(01:47):
Y'all, she's been fired. She has not been fired. You cannot fire my baby. I fired her.
You cannot fire my other sister. No, listen.
So she really loves her grandma. So she's visiting her grandma today.
No. Tell the truth. Shame the devil.
She tried to get out of chores and cleaning and stuff. That's all.
(02:12):
And she does love her grandma. That's her best friend. But she's not fired,
y'all. She'll be back for the next episode.
But to fill in, we have Sydney.
She's 15, almost 16, and she's filling in as our producer today. So welcome, Sydney.
Sydney, say hi. You don't have to come on camera. Just say hi.
(02:33):
Okay. All right. So she's going to keep us on track because I told her I'm not
going to be filming all night.
All right. So we have some things we want to talk about today.
Day we won't start but with fun stuff or serious
stuff what we won't start with oh let's go ahead and
start with the serious topics all right so some of the things I want to talk
(02:54):
about this was disturbing me I was watching a news story right and this woman
had a miscarriage she had a late state miscarriage.
I believe she was, I think she was 22 weeks pregnant or 21 weeks pregnant.
I'm going to have to look it up. But anyway, so she had been charged.
(03:19):
She actually was charged, y'all. She went to jail for having a miscarriage.
Can you believe this? Why?
Okay. This is what they said. First of all, in the state, and I don't recall,
Cindy, while we're talking about this, Look it up. See if we can find that story. Find out.
Remind me what state that was in.
But in the state she's in, apparently abortion is against the law now.
(03:43):
And so I guess they felt like that she was intentionally.
Trying to lose her baby, maybe. So this is what I read. And I watched her new story.
So she went to the doctor because she started cramping.
And the doctor let her know at the hospital that she was having a miscarriage
(04:07):
and that there was nothing that they were going to at, going to be able to do to save the baby.
So at this point, she was experiencing some anxiety and different things like that.
So she decided to leave the hospital and go home.
I think she went home. She was at the hospital and she went home a couple of times, right?
(04:30):
Anyway, she ended up having the miscarriage while she was at home.
Remember that the doctors had had said that this was not a viable pregnancy.
That's what they already said. Anyway, at home, she had the miscarriage and
the fetus actually ended up falling into the toilet or whatever.
(04:51):
It wasn't a viable pregnancy.
The fetus was like 21, 22 weeks gestation.
Anyway, so after she had the miscarriage, she went back to the hospital because
she was concerned about hemorrhaging.
So the nurse ended up calling the police on her for not returning for not returning
(05:13):
with the baby now how can she return with the baby that was not a viable pregnancy.
You know, and it's 21, 22 weeks. What was she supposed to do?
Bring in this. It was just a tiny baby.
It wasn't a baby baby. If you've ever seen a size of a 21, 22 week size fetus, it's real small.
(05:40):
Right. And she was already told that the pregnancy was not viable anyway.
There was no way the baby was going to survive. right so
she got charged with this
but what did she do with like what
where is the baby then after that she left the
baby she didn't get the baby out because she was traumatized
(06:01):
it had a lot to do with being traumatized because
and and i'm sure a lot of
people don't put their themselves in their shoes they're just
automatically wanting to jump down somebody's throat
because it sounds horrific horrific you
know the just the situation in general like she
lost the baby but if they they've already
(06:22):
said the pregnancy isn't viable and
all of that um this is
disturbing to me at first i'd say you
know i believe every woman should be able to decide what's right for her right
we can't judge another woman's decision i am very careful about trying to make
(06:46):
those type of judgments because we don't understand where a person is in their life and.
It just concerns me that at this day and age, even though we're in 2024,
y'all, that women could still go to jail and maybe be charged with murder or
(07:07):
manslaughter for having a miscarriage or an abduction.
That is just shocking news. I actually didn't know about this story.
But what are your thoughts about it? We want to know. What are your thoughts? thoughts.
She's so lost to a long story short, she ended up finding this and the charges
(07:28):
were ended up, they, uh, the charges were dropped.
But my concern is if they did that to her, who else might they try this with?
I think we, as women, we have to be careful about who's deciding deciding things about our lives.
(07:49):
I don't want someone who can't even have a baby, meaning men,
to decide what's best for my situation.
That's concerning. Well, again, we want to know your thoughts about this topic.
So drop some comments below. Let me know what you think.
(08:11):
So have y'all washed the handmaids too? I have not, but I've heard that it's good.
You have to watch the Handmaid's Tale. I heard from her that it's good multiple
times. It is a great show. It's scary.
And it is so relevant to today's age. Sydney, have you watched it?
(08:31):
Okay. I've heard of it. Even your dad likes it.
Anyway, you have to look it up. Basically, in the show...
It started off with women having a lot of freedom and opportunities and living their lives.
And then it ends up to a point where these women become servants, basically.
(08:56):
They're not in control of their own bodies or their own decisions.
These handmaids are, I don't give too much away, but these handmaids are forced
to have babies for other people and different things like that.
So look it up you have to watch hulu yes
i believe it is on hulu okay i'll be checking it out
(09:18):
check a couple episodes and then we come back on
the next show let's talk about it okay and see how
relevant it is i'll watch the first couple of episodes yeah
it's scary i mean because
i feel like sometimes i feel like everything scares her though
no it's for real anything that's a
(09:38):
little little bit darker theme like she does
not know like any type of scary what i mean
by that is not a scary show what i mean is the concept because i feel like sometimes
we are so close to perhaps having that type of environment well they say art
(09:58):
imitates reality so yeah and i and And then y'all, I have four daughters.
Four. And that scares me to think that they could live in a society like that.
So I wouldn't want any of you, any of the four daughters to really live like that.
So I want you and Sidney to check it out.
(10:20):
I know it's definitely too much for Kara. It might be a little bit too much for Peyton to watch.
But y'all check it out. We'll talk about it in the next episode.
Let me know what you think. All right, producer. So what do we have next?
We have the groundhog did not see its shadow.
Do you believe this? I mean, do you believe in those things?
(10:41):
The groundhog didn't see its shadow.
So wait a minute, wait a minute. Because when I was speaking to my youngest
sister about it, she came home from school and she was talking about how the
groundhog didn't see its shadow.
And I'm like, okay, so that means...
Or no, no, no. She said the groundhog, yeah, didn't see its shadow.
(11:06):
So that means we have more winter.
What, six more weeks of winter? But that's what she said. I was like,
no. She was wrong. It means that spring is coming soon.
Well, let me tell you, Kairos knew for sure. Because I could think Kairos.
That was Kairos. Kairos didn't tell you that?
She told me that we were going to have an early spring.
(11:27):
It was either she got the shadow part wrong or. Okay.
Yeah but anyway so the
idea is if the groundhog doesn't
see its shadow they were supposed to
have an early spring we're in georgia and
here in georgia i can't tell if it's going
to be an early spring or an extended winter winter
(11:49):
because it just depends on the day you
know what i think i got it wrong and the
nine-year-old was right i think because it makes more sense
for him to see his shadow because when it's sunny
you see your shot like like not only
if the ground hope sees its shadow then
that means it's going to be an extended winter producer look
(12:11):
it up see who's right here that's what i'm sure they're right but it just logically
you know what it's more i'm gonna go with the third grader because you haven't
been in a school in so long i'm telling you first of all don't come on here
trying so much because not smarter than the third way.
I'm feeling how you are right now. You got this split all up.
(12:34):
If it doesn't see a shadow, that means spring is on its way.
Yeah, if it doesn't see a shadow, it's going to be an early spring. It doesn't make sense.
Never mind. I guess the light does chase away shadows, but I don't know.
If it's already dull outside, you don't have a shadow. Look at her, y'all.
(12:55):
Just overthink. Anyway, we're going to go with it. I don't know what, why do we even do this?
I'm sure, you know, I probably looked it up at one point. Do you know why we do this, producer?
Just look up real quick. Why do we do these groundhog and shadow things?
And while she's looking that up, let's talk about a few ways that we will be preparing for spring.
(13:20):
One thing that my mom loves to do at her house, she absolutely loves to decorate
every season, especially Christmas,
which it took so long to take down the Christmas decorations this year.
Because she put up like five trees and they were pretty. They were gorgeous,
(13:40):
but it was just a lot, okay?
It was nice, though. It was festive.
But the takedown, though. Yeah.
And nobody told her to put those up. So. Well, I do like to decorate.
And because it makes everything feel new.
And I like to decorate depending upon the season. So I definitely want to do it for spring.
(14:04):
Yes. But the problem is the house is quickly becoming like a home goods store.
Yeah. We have a whole storage full of decor.
Yeah. Yeah. So she has a whole storage, not a closet. It's like a room.
Yeah. And then I just forget what I have. It's like going shopping all over
(14:29):
again. It is like shopping to the storage room.
Because I came over and decorated, helped decorate like different parts for
Thanksgiving and then Christmas.
And I was pulling stuff from her storage room. And she was like,
where did you get this from?
What store did you get this from? I'm like, the store?
(14:50):
Trish. I forgot I even got it, y'all.
See, she'll go ahead and get things early, like when things go on sale, like after the holiday.
And that's a good little tip, too. If you guys want to get more into decorating
during the season, start feeling
a little festive, the best prices are right after that season ends.
(15:13):
I think your earrings are looking kind of springy. Those are cute. I got these forever ago.
See, I'm not really a big jewelry person like that. Yeah, but those are cute.
You don't want to know about Groundhog Day? Yeah, go ahead. Okay, sir.
It is related to the lore that clear weather on the Christian festival of Candlemas
(15:34):
forbodes a prolonged winter.
Okay, can we get an English version?
So what does all that mean? That's Wikipedia.
I thought I talked to you better about technology sources. She's a Wikipedia fan.
I think, long story short, we continue a lot of traditions that we don't even
(15:56):
know why we do it. Y'all, what are your thoughts about the Groundhog Day?
Do you believe in it? So it says that they're related to two other holidays, Halloween and May Day.
Who celebrates May Day now? I don't even know. I haven't heard about that.
I feel like I should know, growing up in the 80s.
(16:19):
I'm just skipping through this, by the way, so you guys might want to do your own research.
But we didn't do any pre-planning. It traces the roots of Groundhog Day to the
same cycle of pre-Christian festivals that gave us those two celebrations.
We're going to have to look more into that because Halloween,
Christianity, I'm not sure. Those two things.
Anyway, y'all know. Leave. Let's talk about it in the comments,
(16:43):
okay? Next topic, producer.
Preparing for spring season. Well, before we do that, is there a certain color
you think is really big for springing 2024?
24 whatever i feel like
wearing i i dress how
i want like you know but some people say
this is gonna be the color for the spring this year and i guess that i mean
(17:08):
i fashion fashion people even really now in that day and age i don't know some
people still believe you can't wear white white after Labor Day, but,
I'm in white Is this after Labor Day or before Labor Day?
It's the beginning of the year, so It's still after Labor Day, last Labor Day.
(17:29):
I forgot to tell you, you didn't respond to my text when I said a viewer watched
us and she said, I'm sure you already know this, but you guys, she's your twin.
She said, meaning you, my twin. Well, I don't think you texted me that.
I did text you that. She does read my texts, yeah.
But anyway, what are your thoughts about that looking like your mama?
(17:53):
Who has thoughts about that when you just heard it your whole life?
It's you just accept it as yes. Yeah, it just is what it is.
And your mama's being, your mama fine, girl.
Ain't no problem with that. Okay, it looks like your mama.
Just don't be all corny. Okay.
Now, next we're going to talk about the importance of living with a good attitude, I think.
(18:15):
I think living with the, your attitude is going to impact your health.
That's one of the things, right? So if you, first of all, everybody is going
to have a bad day sometimes.
Sometimes I think that's inevitable, whether you're older, younger,
black or white, rich or poor, a man or woman, you're going to have a bad day
(18:38):
and your attitude is going to reflect that bad day.
Sometimes I've met anyone who is just perfect.
You can brag a little bit, mom. I'm next after. Okay.
According to who? Not according to your siblings. Siblings are haters, too.
(18:58):
I think, though, that when a negative thought tries to persist in your mind
for too long, you really have to, what the Bible says, cast those things down.
Because it can really start impacting your long-term goals, your long-term vision,
your health, your appearance, your relationships.
(19:19):
Because who wants to be around somebody who is negative all the time,
right? Thanks, Sydney. Yes.
Because people want to get away from those people. What do you think?
I think that's 100% right. However you choose to start your day is going to
be how you go out into the world and bring your energy out into the world.
(19:41):
And so don't. I like when Tabitha, you know, the vegan woman. Tabitha Brown.
Hey, Tab. So she always says. Because what is the exact phrase?
I'm not sure. But she always says, have a good day.
And if you can't have a good day, don't go messing up somebody else's. You never know.
(20:04):
Somebody else bringing positivity into the world may help the next person.
Yeah, because positivity can be contagious. And so can negativity, too.
So if you're around someone who's negative all the time, then I think that is
contagious. It'll eventually, you're going to be impacted by it.
We still have to understand everybody's going to have a bad day.
(20:26):
But just try to always stay positive.
I think when you're positive, good things will follow after you.
True. All right, Producer Sid, what we got, girl? We're yawning on your job.
A healthy lifestyle, what it means to you.
What does a healthy lifestyle mean to you? Well, that kind of ties into the last topic.
(20:51):
You know, a lot of it starts in the mind. You want to, as we were saying, be positive.
That's how you first want to start your day. But you also want to eat well.
You want to get into more food knowledge about what's harmful to the body and
what could be affecting you that you never even knew.
And also working out is always a good thing.
(21:14):
Even, what do they say, 30 minutes a day? Yeah And Which Is.
It's not really that bad, but sometimes we get so busy, like I know I do,
that we find it difficult to even get that in.
You go out and about on a day-to-day basis.
Park your car far if you have to. Now inside is okay.
(21:37):
And do a little quick step to the entrance of wherever you're going. Right.
Maybe even a light jog. You may be looking a little bit like, what are you running?
But that's one of the things we really want to get into too and maybe you'll
see an episode soon of us at the gym we want to really get our workout on and
(21:57):
just really present a healthier lifestyle on the channel so if you want to follow
us on that journey make sure you're subscribing.
Liking leave a comment and let us know that you're

actually do some on the show hmm she can't
do push push-ups though or chin-ups so
i'll have to work my way up to that i can't do any chin-ups let's
be kind remember that let's be kind all right
next sydney who are the biggest
(22:38):
heroes in your life biggest heroes I know
a lot of people try they name celebrities and people
they look up to honestly the heroes in my life
would really just be my family my
family and those who are closest to me because they are the ones who are going
to make the greatest impact on me my mom is one of my heroes too oh don't do
(23:01):
all that but just because I've you know been there like she said I think the first episode,
you talked a little bit about how you had me and my older brother at a younger age.
And so we, you know, were there watching her step into who she is now.
(23:22):
So, yeah, she deserves all those accolades.
Oh, I sure do. Sini, who's your hero? Oh.
My family. Good answer. Okay, I haven't been following. I didn't follow the Trump trial.
But let me tell you what I have been following is the prosecutor assigned to
(23:46):
the Trump trial, Fannie Willis.
Yes, Fannie Willis.
Oh, gosh. So I've been watching this for the last few days.
And in case you don't know, Fannie Willis is the prosecutor out of New York
who was working the Trump trial.
(24:08):
Anyway, come to find out, here's the allegation.
So Fannie Willis was seeing a married lawyer who was, I believe they both were
judges at one point in time too.
Anyway which i guess
is morally wrong but that's another
story but what they're saying is legally
(24:30):
wrong is she brought she then brought
him on the trial with her he's the assistant attorney and so now they're saying
that she did so many illegal things by i guess finances some of the So he's
Donald Trump's assistant.
(24:51):
No, he's the assistant prosecutor.
Yeah, he's working with her.
And they're saying that that's, you know, basically that's her man or she dated him.
And she did date him. Here's where I am really bothered by what she did.
(25:14):
First of all, if you're going after Donald Trump, ex-president,
one of the biggest names out there when it comes to,
you know, we know the type of things he does and you already know that people
are going to come after you because you're going after him.
(25:36):
Why wouldn't you be as clean as possible?
Or, you know, why would you put yourself in a situation where they have something
to come against you with?
Why would you do that? I'm so bothered by
(25:56):
this because I think she puts a
bare light on the community i'm hoping
first of all i'm hoping all goes well with with her
and i'm hoping that what she's saying
about the timeline is accurate and
but there are some things that i just really disagree
with let me ask you this so are they
(26:19):
just mad that they're working together to take him down because what is it like
they would would they feel like I'd be colluding more to give him a sentence
like she doesn't have anybody to she doesn't have to argue against or for something
with like for instance if when the prosecutor is.
(26:39):
Say that they want to recommend this amount of
a sentence or stuff like that is that why well
they're on the same team but i know
but like yeah well i think it's more so first
of all they're looking for anything to overturn the
trial or have a mistrial or have the case thrown out you know what i'm saying
(27:00):
so what they're doing is they're using her situation they're basically saying
she She used some government money maybe to fund this relationship.
Like they took trips together. They did certain things and she gave him money,
allegedly, and things like that.
(27:20):
So even though they normally wouldn't care, but because she went after Trump,
they're looking for any dirt on her to get the case dismissed.
Right. And she gave them, they're basically trying to ruin her credibility.
Exactly. But, you know, she also has other cases going on, too.
(27:42):
I wonder if they would have done this, like, for those, when it came to those
other cases, like the Young Thug trial, the Rico case she has going on.
They wouldn't, but because we already know that when you go after Trump,
there's a loyal fan base.
I said, and I do say fan base, that will adamantly defend him, you know, and...
(28:11):
That's why I don't understand how she could not have known that this would be an issue.
I'm disappointed, honestly, in her decisions and in her behavior,
because she put herself in that situation knowing that this could be an issue.
I don't even know how she could think that they weren't going to dig this up.
(28:34):
Generation X is acting up.
Every generation, ma'am. Speaking of which, my generation has been acting up.
I told you about the comedians out there, the 50-plus comedians out there who
are doing social media battles.
You know, bad-mouthing each other. There's a whole lot of going on.
(28:55):
With Monique and, you know, it started with Cat Williams.
And then Monique and D.L. Hughley
got into it. And then they're going back and forth on social media.
It's just yeah i wonder y'all
out there i'm first of all i'm not 50
yet so don't put me in there i'm not usually for the drama
(29:15):
but i've been kind of enjoying it because generation x always has so much to
say about millennials and now look at you now yeah because yeah i and you know
i'm big on that because i i do think millennials and gen z or whatever they
call themselves are drama filk Look,
but how can I be in the oven?
(29:36):
Oh, I'll be back. And I'm back.
Right. Yeah. But yeah, I've been enjoying it because I'm like all this talking
that y'all have about millennials, this and millennials that.
But you know what else get on my nerves? Look at y'all. Look who's making the price right now.
(29:57):
It is kind of embarrassing. First of all, I'm not in the 50 plus club yet.
So don't throw me in there with them.
But I did watch them, you know, and I'm like.
I grew with them. So, yeah, I wish they would just calm down a little bit.
Because I think there should be, at some point when you're 50 plus,
(30:18):
there should be a level of wisdom and maturity that comes with that.
Fanny, Monique, all y'all other comedians out there who's been giving us entertainment,
you know, can't we all just get along?
Alone or can y'all calm down just a little bit
because y'all really giving us 40 plus euros
(30:39):
a bad light right now i'm just saying can we calm down just a little bit it's
called reparations now next topic next topic you know i saw a video just yesterday
of and i i love kelly roland i I think she's so pretty and talented, too.
And she was rocking her natural hair. She had a bog.
(31:02):
And it was just really cute. And it just reminded me, too, about the natural
hair movement with Black women.
Where are we now with the natural hair movement and Black women?
I know you, you started where your natural, well, you, at least you stopped
getting relaxers many, many moons ago. Yeah, I never really cared for them.
(31:26):
But you grew up during a time where everybody got relaxers. Yeah, it was a big thing.
And then I grew up in my teenage years where it was starting to be a thing where everybody stopped.
And I didn't, you know, for a while, it was just kind of like,
like my hair did start breaking off and stuff.
(31:47):
It took a while to reverse the damage. but I'm
so happy that I did stop getting those because
now well and you you started seeing
it back then too but for the longest time all
of these articles and you know lawsuits
now about women possibly getting
(32:08):
cancer from it and stuff like that and it's
like black women we don't need that we don't need
i our hair is beautiful and not
only that it's very versatile as well because i don't have a relaxer i've been
natural now since i had my youngest daughter who is nine so i've been natural
for nine years but i you can see it straightened out right now because i just
(32:30):
blow dry it out you use a flat iron if i wanted to wear straight which normally
i don't by the way Normally,
and she can attest to this, I wear my hair in its natural state, which is curly afro.
If we want to put a ponytail on, we can do that. We can get some braids.
I'm not even against weaves if we want to do that.
Whatever we want to do. But I am against, you know, hair relaxers because I
(32:55):
just think it's unnecessary and it can be dangerous.
And my daughters won't be getting anything.
And amen. But so kudos to you, Kelly Rowland, for rocking your natural hair.
I think more celebrity, if more celebrities did that, it could really be a great thing.
You know, she, Kelly Rowland, she also has, I think it's a movie.
(33:19):
Yeah, she has a movie coming out. It's called Mia Coppa. Is that how you pronounce it?
I don't know the name of it, but I am looking forward to seeing it.
Yeah, I know I'm going to see it. I haven't seen anything like necessarily about it.
But the other day I just saw that she had it. And I'm like, oh,
of course, I'm going to go see it.
But another thing about Kelly Rowland, I don't know if you guys have seen.
(33:41):
I don't know if you've seen.
But recently, Kelly Rowland was supposed to host with Hoda and Jenna.
Did you see that? And what happened? I did not see that.
So apparently, what they're saying is that there was some type of mess up where
they're trying to say that she ended up walking out at the last minute because
(34:05):
she wanted a different dressing room.
And I think they're trying to spin a story like that.
I haven't read too many details right now. But then she had gone on.
I just saw it today, but she went on another talk show.
And oh the hoda
and jenna show they had to have rita
(34:25):
or step in at the last minute and i think that that's
another picture they're trying to paint like that they constantly try to add
on to a black woman's image that they're difficult or you know aggressive or
hard to work with but there are plenty of people asking would they do that same
(34:46):
thing with taylor swift Swift.
So true. You know, I'm surprised by this because I, in all the years that I
was following Destiny's Child and then Kelly Rowland,
and I've never heard of any issue like that with Kelly Rowland.
I've never heard her to be a conflict person or to give anyone trouble.
(35:10):
So maybe it It was just a real genuine ask that they could have easily provided to her.
She went on the Sherry Shepard show.
And she was just speaking with her and giving her her accolades.
And so she didn't even go on to mention, like, you know, all this stuff.
(35:31):
But she was just giving Sherry Shepard
her accolades and saying that she's grateful for a space like this.
And she handled herself with so much grace.
We really want to know what you guys think about
this as well yeah because because kelly
roland is not a problematic person we've never seen her
(35:54):
you know in the media for wilding out
or yeah i mean there was many things that she could have been problematic about
but she never was you know like she could have given some tea about destiny
shout you know i'm sure she got some but she She didn't do that. So, oh, no.
(36:15):
Yo, Jess, what's going on? Let us know what you think about all the topics we discussed today.
Our inspirational person of the week is none other than Queen B herself, Beyonce.
And I wanted to just talk briefly about her crossover to country music as well.
(36:36):
Well, so she recently topped hot R&B and hip slash hip hop songs and hot country
songs on the Billboard charts. With the same song?
I don't know if it's the same song, but I'm sure it's different songs.
But she's on top with both the songs.
(36:59):
I think that's an amazing feat, especially being a Black artist.
Oftentimes now there are other black
country music artists and they don't really get
recognition like that because they can
often be classified you know put into one category or
told they they don't sound authentically
(37:20):
country but you know there is
a whole history behind country music and maybe we'll
get a little bit into that the next time but for
now Beyonce is our inspirational person in
a bit weak and yeah i really like her song yeah her country song so i want you
guys to stay tuned and follow us hit that subscribe button and comment what
(37:46):
topics you want to hear about next week yeah we'll see you next week thanks for tuning in.
