Can you really mix Adidas and Nike? On this episode of the Absolute DMV Podcast, things get personal and hilarious as Ace Boogie, Marc, and Egogh navigate the minefield of fashion etiquette. We kick things off with Marc’s anticipation-filled chatter about his upcoming trip to Armenia and Egogh’s laugh-out-loud gym anecdotes. If you’ve ever wondered about the unwritten rules of gym attire and grooming habits, this episode will have you reflecting on your own choices and probably laughing in agreement.
Ever caught flak for pairing Nike socks with Adidas shoes? We have, and we’re breaking it all down. The conversation takes a fashion-forward turn as we dissect the do’s and don’ts of brand mixing. From luxury cross-brand exceptions to the ultimate faux pas, we dish on how financial status and brand loyalty shape our wardrobe decisions. We each recall our retail adventures, whether at Macy’s or Saks Fifth Avenue, and share why some brand pairings just don’t make the cut.
But it’s not just about what we wear; it’s also about who we date. Wrapping up, we dive into the complexities of interracial dating, peppered with our personal stories and perspectives. Do compatibility and shared interests truly trump racial background? Our reflective, sometimes humorous chat navigates the nuances of relationships shaped by diverse experiences and cultures. Tune in for an episode packed with laughs, relatable moments, and thoughtful discussions on fashion, fitness, and love.

You know, I'm getting tired ofwhere I get ready for summer.
No, it's already summer,technically true true, not true,
true, yeah, I can't.
I can't act like it's justbecause the date didn't come out

Speaker 1 (03:04):
It's 90 degrees outside.
Yeah, it was like 100.
Yeah, no, you're right, it'ssummer.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
It's past Memorial Day, that means the pools are
open.
Yeah, the pools are open.
The pools are definitely open,you're right, so like.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
I'm avoiding the pools At all costs.
Right now, I understand whatyou're going through.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Yeah, exactly, I understand.
I can't keep wearing this XLshit, XL XL.
I mean, it fits well on me, butafter a while.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
I'm sucking it in all the time.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Yo, it's so funny.
So I'm at the gym, right?
Oh man, so back in the day,when you were at the gym, you
knew your gear, you knew what towear, you knew what to rock at
the gym.
You're serious, you're going infor work.
You're not going in there.
Flaunt, you're not going inthere, sure, yeah.
And it's weird to me this dayand age the way that people are
(03:53):
laxing Daisy or pretty muchdon't give a fuck how they carry
themselves.
Even at the gym I saw thishomeboy.
It fucking baffles me.
This dude was walking aroundwith a bonnet oh shit, oh shit,
a bot.
No, a women's bonnet, and I getit, I get it.
I get it.
(04:13):
Like they're it's more of acosmetic thing or not cosmetic,
like they're moisturizing theirdreads or whatever.
Oh yeah, I mean a do rag, likethe same thing, like a do ragrag
, but even a do-rag.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I'm do-rag man.
If I don't have a hat on, Ihave a do-rag on.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Okay, so you got the waves right.
It's for the waves right, yeah,but are you doing that in the
gym?
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Maybe.
So here's a question.
Then, if you're at your girl'sspot and you don't have a clean
do-rag or anything, are youtaking a bonnet?
Definitely, because it soundslike that.
Maybe is a scenario with thisguy where he ran out of options.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Look, look look, I'm not going to knock, I'm not
going to fully knock the bonnetbecause I wouldn't rock the
bonnet.
Oh my God, I mean I figure thatthere's all types of different
head wraps that the red headsand other people would use.
So the actual elastic with theruffles bonnet, I mean, I, I nah
(05:18):
yeah, I mean and I had braidsat one point in my life and even
then did you have braids?
Speaker 3 (05:23):
when you have bonnet?
I never had a bondnet, I neverhad a bonnet.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
It was always stocking cap, do-rag something
of that nature.
The thing about it is I get it.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Okay, if you have long hair you need.
But come on, man, like a bonnetis for a woman, for that long
hair, weave whatever.
It needs to be taken care of.
Sure A man wearing a bonnet.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Hey, I don't know how I feel about a bald head dude
telling people with hair whatthey should be wearing on their
head, and that's okay, becauseyou know why I accepted it, that
I didn't need it.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
What if I had dreads on the side long and I had a
bald head and I wore a bonnet?
Exactly, I mean, just stop thesentence that dreads a bonnet,
that's exactly, I mean just stopthe sentence that dreads on the
side.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Yeah, I think that's already crazy.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I would've yeah, but would it be okay though?
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I would've had a nice laugh at you, but at the same
time I wouldn't have likeknocked you for it.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
For wearing a bonnet.
A grown ass wearing a bonnet.
No, bro, I said I would havelaughed, but I wouldn't have
knocked you.
I didn't sit there and laugh ata dude in front of me.
I mean.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
I go by the I'm sorry , I go by the standards with all
, with everybody.
That it's no judgment, it's alljokes.
Yeah, so anything that you dois subject to some type of joke,
like I grew up, true, and likeI said, I grew up in, you know,
the early 2000s, in one of themost diverse high schools.
Shout out to John F KennedyHigh School in Montgomery County
(06:50):
, the only thing we did wasfight or flame, and when I say
flame, I mean we flamed eachother up.
It was verbal sparring.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Flame is the newer term.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Like we were joning, I mean, yeah, we were, joning,
we're frying them up, yeah, butthat's what I'm saying.
I mean, that's what.
That's what we did.
It was it was verbal sparringor physical sparring, but back,
either way, you were gonna doone or the other clown them up.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
But back in the day it was like you're right.
Especially when it comes tofashion kids, especially in
middle school, they'll makefunny for anything like there
are rules that don't make nosense but everyone somehow knows
them, like when I was a kid ifyou had shorts that went above
your kneecap you get nowadaysit's the opposite if you wear
pants that are below your capit's not in fashion, you look
(07:37):
weird and then on top of that,it's like if you have a brand
like a t-shirt, you got to wearthat matching brand on other
gear because you can't have an
Speaker 1 (07:46):
adidas shoe no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no no no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, nono no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no.
I've seen a lot of kids nowadayswith the Nike Tech and the
(08:07):
Yeezys.
Okay, and in our day that waslike you said.
That's blasphemy.
You know what I'm saying?
Like you were going to getfried up for mixing brands in
that fashion.
Like if you were going to mixbrands, it would have had to
been like a luxury item, likeyou could wear polo with Nikes,
(08:30):
you could wear polo with Jordans, like type thing it would not
like, not to competing brands.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
You can't have an adidas and a Reebok.
You know you couldn't do sport.
You can do fashion in sport,right yes.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
so like fashion and fashion in sport, right, yes?
Or fashion in fashion.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
No, even that's even.
Oh, it depends on what's yourmoney look like True true, true.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
That's another thing, if you got a Gucci shirt and I
guess, Balenciaga shoes, I guessI don't know if people are
going to knock you.
That's okay.
That's okay, what are theygoing to say?
You too rich.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
They make fun of you for being rich.
I don't know, so like.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
I said, that's a different tax bracket.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
I guess so, yeah, I guess, so yeah, one of those
good problems.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
You need to go to Saks See what the we live a hype
.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
True, I'm Ralph.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Lauren Polo all day.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
That's probably the highest brand that I'm going up
on True yeah, what's the mall at, what's the hub?
Speaker 3 (09:24):
I lie, I lie Highs.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
I will every now and then.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Macy's, there was Hex , and then in Friendship Heights
they had the one with NeimanMarcus and Saks, fifth Avenue
and like those ones, it was likeyou'd go in there.
I only went in there like forthe yearly sale they had, and I
was like.
They had like a bunch of stuffwas like 50% off and still $700.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Back in like, yeah, like for a small, I'm gonna give
him big.
Yeah, they had a little mom andpop joint so you can you get
the discounts or whatever.
You go to Ralph Lauren.
That was when you you use theshit and Stomping grounds oh.
Guess guess gene.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Oh yeah, I guess little stomping grounds.
Oh, I mean, I worked out there,yeah, that's why I call it
remember, guess guess jeans.
Oh yeah, I guess but oh, that'sno, no, that's too old, that's
not.
If you want to talk, see.
So we're going.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
I'm not going to do that, I'm not going to do that,
I'm not going to do that anyway.
So like, yeah, so speaking ofmark, like that, like what do
you feel about cross branding ofwearing like nike shoes with
Adidas socks and then wearingsome Reebok shorts?
Like crossing all that shit.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
For me personally.
I'm like you can't do twodifferent footwear brands.
You can't do Adidas shoes withNike socks.
That's off For me.
I always was like, if you gotshirt or shorts or hat, then
that's different because it's,like you know, is not footwear
at that point and it's also likekind of like you know, like how
(10:54):
the expectations are too high,like you gotta the loyalty to
these brands that that havingthat demands.
It's like you gotta go out andbuy mark, you're gonna do deep
no, no, no.
I'm just saying like how are yougonna have only nike stuff for
an outfit and then only adidasstuff for another outfit?
Speaker 3 (11:11):
no, no, no.
So the thing about it is you,the you grew up like for us.
When I grew up, it didn'tmatter.
You will find a way to makeeverything match.
You will find a way, okay.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
How can you make an Adidas and a Nike match?
No, because that's the thing.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
No, we won't.
That wouldn't exist If you werea Nike all or Adidas all.
There's no like wearing Adidasshirt and Nike shoes.
No.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
It would never match.
Don't do that.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
Like you don't do any brands.
If you're going to wear likeNike shoes, Nike socks, you
better have a Nike shirt oroff-brand shirt.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Off-brand, yeah it can't be, it's true.
So you got to be loyal towhatever brand you pick.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
For me when I was in elementary school, every Friday
I had a different Nike fit Iwould wear.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
And it was all Nike.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
And it had to be.
I mean, it just had to be.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
It was expensive.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
That's my point.
It was expensive at the time, Imean, and you had to.
So, like you said, at that timeI had no Reeboks, I had no
other brands.
All I wore was Nike.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
It has to make sense.
You know what I'm saying.
So when you bought shit, eventhough it would be cheaper or
whatever, you already had enoughNike that actually you had to
keep it going.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
That's what it was.
I got one For me.
I have one exception to thatrule what Slides?
If you are wearing slides, ifyou are not putting together
(12:53):
like an, if it don't look likeyou're putting together an
outfit, like you just happen tohave an off-brand shirt, you
have on your Nike sweats and youthrow on your Adidas slides and
you roll out.
I said, if you're trying to puttogether a fit and you start
cross-branding with differentsport brands, you start trying
to wear some Adidas, yeah, someAdidas pants with a Nike hoodie
or something like that.
Now I'm like, all right, bro,you look crazy.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
You look crazy and yeah, so, like that being said,
it's, it doesn't mean because me, being old school, I used to
get fried or like.
I used to get joned likebecause it didn't make sense to
the person who looks at me likehow you cross branding your gear
.
Um then, hmm, damn, I got someshit like get off my chest.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
I love to say he about to get in the therapy
session.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Look at this guy.
He's just one of those realdeep sides.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
He was about to plunge into the abyss of a
conversation.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
And you know this is all at the gym.
I haven't left the gym yet.
This is crazy.
So also Crocs, these kids,crocs in everything.
Working out in Crocs kids,crocs in everything.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Working out in Crocs.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
Playing basketball Crocs yes, it's Croc City.
It's lazy to me.
I get it.
It's comfortable, I get it,it's a fashion to them, but I
feel it's unsafe If you wererunning away from a gunshot.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
It's unsafe that was my thinking too.
You're running away from agunshot and safe.
That's.
That was my thinking too,because, again, I've never owned
a pair of crocs, I've neverworn a pair of crocs I got, so I
don't know how supportive, howattached they are to you, but
from looking at them it's likethey're basically just slides
with a little back strap aroundyour ankle.
So like yeah, you're in, butlike there's no laces, like it's
not a high top, it's one strongkick and then you can kick them
(14:35):
off probably the onlydifference between sport mode
and not sport mode.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
It's sport mode, yeah , it's sport mode.
That's what the kids call themSport mode.
Yeah, I watched a kid playbasketball in Crocs and
literally break a dude's ankles.
And when I say break them down,I mean dude fell, and at that
moment I was like that's when hequestioned his life.
Yeah, I did not.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
I did not question Crocs any longer.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Wait like he fell no, the dude, the dude dribbling
the ball had on Crocs.
The dude who was guarding himdid not have on Crocs.
He had on sneakers, high tops,laced up.
He was ready to play basketballand dude with the Crocs put him
on the ground in some Crocs andI was just like sport mode is a
(15:18):
real thing At that moment.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
I knew sport mode was a real thing.
Maybe it's because the Crocsare just like.
They're just one big piece ofmaterial and they're probably
pretty light in comparison to ashoe which has like leather and
cloth and dummy stuff.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
But, like he just said, safety, he's thinking
about support.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Like you said, it's a slide.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
It's like you're barefoot, almost there's no
support.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
So, how do you do that?
I mean, given that all thebasketball shoes nowadays are
low cuts to me, they kind ofremind me of soccer shoes Pretty
much.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Here's a question, though Was the guy that you saw
who put him on the ground, whowas wearing the Crocs?
Was he just an amazing, likegod at basketball Could be, or
was he just like an averageplayer?
Because if he was amazing andhe did that in Crocs, imagine
what he could do in regularshoes.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
That's the—and I think that's what it might have
been, but just the idea that hedid it in Crocs, yeah that.
Crocs with somebody who waslaced up ready to play it's
crazy.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
He's probably saying these niggas ain't shit.
And it was crazy because helaced up his Crocs.
I mean look at me.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
He laced up his Crocs .
Oh, he put on his Crocs.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
He came out in his Crocs, that's the new Crocs
coming out next year with laces.
He put on his Crocs came out inhis Crocs.
Yeah, laces.
That's the new Crocs coming outnext year with Laces.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
He put on his Crocs came out.
I was baffled when he keptsaying that shit he put on his
Crocs, came out and I looked athim and I was like young boy,
you really going to play in someCrocs?
Because little stuff like thatto me is in our day.
We consider that disrespectfulBecause it's like that's
(16:58):
different difference.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Yeah, we looking at you and and you don't feel like
it's serious enough to, butyou're not taking the time to
put on real shoes.
Yeah, to play, you don't thinkthat the person you're playing
is worth it.
And bro, you know, and thenhe's, and then he did that, and
then he did that.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
That is impressive and then he did that and at that
moment I was like you know whatsport mode is?
A real thing, um, um, I won'tdoubt it anymore I mean, I put,
I put on some Crocs, I put onsome Crocs, bro, and they
weren't in for me.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Yeah, see.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
But for this kid those were as good as some
Jordans, I'm going to have totrack Crocs next time I go to
the shoe store.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
I'm going to just put them on and walk them around,
go check them out.
Go check them out.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Try that, go check them out.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
All right, is this like ego?
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Let me cook, let me cook.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Let me cook.
I got something else to say ohdamn, go ahead, I got something
else to say?
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Go ahead.
Are we still at the gym?
Speaker 2 (17:41):
No, we moved on.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Okay, cool, all right .
So now I pretty much said, allright, this is not my error, I'm
good, I'm going to keep itmoving.
I left the gym and you know,next day I'm still thinking
about it.
And then I start thinking aboutthe way the fashion is nowadays
.
I'm walking around campus andyou know my campus.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
This guy was on an edible or something because he
just was mad introspective.
What was you on, bro?
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Get out of my face.
What was you on?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Anywho, anywho, so what would you want, bro?
Speaker 2 (18:13):
get out my face.
What?
Speaker 3 (18:14):
would you want, tell me any who any who so when I'm
walking around looking at howpeople carry themselves, this,
this new thing, like there's alot of like I don't know if it's
the jeans cut or the way likewomen wear their clothes.
Everybody in, everybody isthick, doesn't matter what race
(18:39):
it is, doesn't matter how theycarry themselves I was like and
maybe it's my eyes and maybe Ican't see anymore maybe I need
to change my prescription.
Maybe I'm like bald and blindand blind, but everything.
Well, actually I'm probablyseeing more.
Like I see, I've seen allangles and what did y'all think
(19:01):
like, how do y'all feel about,like this day and age, like how
they carry themselves, like allraces, like the races of any,
like woman wearing jeans,wearing uh spandex or is, I
think, like you were talkingabout that.
It's like the idea that, likegym clothes like you know what
used to be, we can go in a gymclothes that shit's like nothing
(19:22):
.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Oh yeah, like the rise of Lululemon, you know, and
like popular is like Fableticsand you know Zella and all these
, like companies that makebasically Lululemon sort of like
.
You know, tight sweatpants andit's like guys and girls wear
them and they're tight and it'slike gym clothes but they make
them so they're like everydayclothes too and they, I think,
(19:44):
like everybody wears them now aslike uh you know, some of them
are like office clothes too.
so, uh, that I guess has been arise, and maybe the tight
clothes is not just skinny jeans, but, like you know,
Everything's fitted.
Everything's fitted,everything's tight.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Yeah, we went through a situation or an era I should
say situation an era whereeverything was baggy and then it
changed really fast, it seemedlike, to where everything got
European, cut and skinny, andthat's for the men.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
That's not even for the women.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Skinny shorts, skinny jeans, skinny, whatever I
remember when I was in sixth andseventh grade.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
it was like the big baggy pants, like the skater
pants, Like if you had jeans.
That almost engulfed your shoesand you couldn't even see what
shoes you were wearing.
That was the cool thing at thetime.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Was that Jenko's?
Yeah, jenko's.
They were big all those joints.
Yeah, like uh, like you know,like the back in the day, like
onyx, yeah like uh, naughty bynature when you wore jeans and
then you tucked them in likeyour boot.
But then it was baggy as hell,right, and then and then also
skater fit like a skater, yeahskater fit and then also in the
hip hop realm.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
You know when Nelly was doing, you know his bandaid
sort of routine.
He had the massive Like XL,like that was a big thing in the
early 2000s.
It was like Like triple, youknow XL.
You know t-shirts and all thatstuff it was across the board
and in a lot of demographicsthere.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
No, but the seam of my t-shirt Would come down to
about here.
Instead of sitting on myshoulder, it would be down here
and I felt like I was the man.
I felt like I was wearingsomething that fit.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
It's interesting too, because guys' clothes like
there's a new thing where it'slike you wear skinny jeans and
then a big oversized shirt, Likeoversized shirts, are making a
big comeback and some of themwill have like fitted torso and
then big oversized sleeves.
That don't you know they'remade to not fit with your arms
so it's a japanese cut.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
There's a lot of.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
There's honestly a lot of baggy baggy pants coming
back out yeah I'm noticing that,like flared out ankles and
things like that.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
I mean thank you.
Yeah, like the 70s, bellbottoms are making a comeback
for women too.
Why are you doing that?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
I'm just saying they're around, People are
buying them.
They're bringing all of it back.
I mean because to these kidsit's all that 70s.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
That's a new trend.
It's an ancient time 50 yearsold.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
It's like kids nowadays buying music will often
buy it tape, cassettes becauseit's an.
It's like an old analog thingthat's historic and prehistoric
to them and they, you know theyget the digital download but
it's a cool little thing thatthey can put on their desk and
their shelves and stuff I saw avideo one time where these kids
saw a tape cassette oh, yeah, inthe car, yeah, and they were
(22:31):
like oh cool, it's an iphoneholder yeah, or the kid looking
at the old, uh like nokia phoneand he's like how come it has a
hashtag on here and it doesn'teven have a full screen, like,
how are you going to do that?
Well, you can't even download.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Tick tock hashtag, that's correct I know right
hashtag pound tag all righthashtag, that's crazy so like
yeah, so we're talking about,like the way women wearing their
stuff.
So what do y'all think aboutdifferent races carrying?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
themselves.
No, I mean from what you weresaying is the gym culture has
actually gotten big.
That's why I feel like thelegging culture has gotten big.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Women wearing leggings has gotten big Pretty
much.
The booty is always going to beenhanced.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
As it should.
As it should, is it motivating?
Speaker 2 (23:24):
I just like the way that he started that sentence.
He tried to sound an intercutand say the booty.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
The booty.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I just love that interjection right there to
start a sentence.
The booty meat.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
But yeah, that's what it is.
Gym culture's gotten really big, so a lot of stuff that women
wear are from the gym and thingsof that nature.
And not to mention these gymcompanies.
You see them.
They wear the leggings.
They make the leggings with thelittle shadows on the butts or
under the butts to make thebutts look better.
Enhanced, enhanced, yes, and itworks.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
So I guess that I keep wearing them, ladies, and
that's the same thing.
But they transfer that over tojeans now, too, that's what I'm
wearing, oh yeah, even jeans.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Yeah, so the jeans are specially fit.
I mean, jeans aren't reallylike all denim anymore, they're
like stretchy.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
Yeah, they're stretchy with the skinny jean
era because you can't wear realdenim.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Sergio Valente's.
Thank you, ladies.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
I remember those.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Remember that era.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
I'm trying to hold, I'm hitting a vapor.
I'm like yo, I'm trying to holdit in this guy.
No, no, no, no.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
That's funny.
You got to understand that.
That's that, parasuco sergiovalente.
Era was a special era for, for,for young men, for young women,
everybody.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
It was a a special, special era I will say you know
what I think that has gone away,which I haven't seen a lot is
like the, you know the, the pumaor you know the, the one suit
where you have a top and abottom and it's kind of like the
velvet material, kind of likethe uma thurman kill bill sort
of uh, yeah, the track suits,yeah the valor, but yeah like
(25:09):
it's not like a track seat likeyou work out in, it's like a
relax no, they got, they gotpeople doing that yeah, but
that's like high end, like ifyou do, yeah, like the.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
I think there's a Puma with Supreme, oh, Supreme.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
They'll sell you a stapler with Supreme written on
it for $700.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Exactly these motherfuckers Like yo.
But it's, I kind of want, it, Ikind of want it.
Wow, because the thing about itis not, everybody has it.
It's the same time you see atracksuit with, like a louis
tracksuit.
No, no, there's no way I'm forthat shit.
No, I mean, don't get ittwisted they.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Everything is like we said gym culture is big, so
everything is athleisure yeah soif, even if you are wearing
this for casual, you can stillgo work out true, you know what
I'm saying.
So I guess velour is one ofthose things where it's not
moisture wicking.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
So if you were to go work out in a velour sweatsuit.
It's going to be shut up to youyeah.
You're going to ruin it, yeah,or you're going to have a bad
experience.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Yeah, you might as well go work out in a leather
suit.
True, it's just good to go.
But yeah, speaking, speaking,but yeah, speaking of all the
cultures in the gym andeverything like that, like you
were just saying with thedifferent races.
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Different races, different cultures, whatever.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
As gentlemen I know to put our personal business out
there we are all gentlemen whodate outside of our race.
I need to ask you, gentlemen,was that ever?
Was that something that y'alldid consciously, or is that
something that just kind ofhappened for y'all?
I mean because I know, mark,your wife is Brazilian, yeah,
ego.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
I have a Polish wife.
I mean girlfriend wife.
Wow, yeah, I got to say it.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Hey, to say it, hey, hey shut up.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
So so the thing about me like, like for this topic
it's weird.
Like I was never like putmyself in a box to date, only
one race.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
I date people who like me I date people I worked
with me I like.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
So again, I dated, uh , black, I did it white, I did
it asian, I dated indian, I didanything that actually made
sense for me because, again, I'mall about no headache, sure, I
don't give a fuck who it is,what color you are, whatever, if
it works for me, it works forme.
But most of my friends probablywas like if you look at your
(27:35):
statistics, if you look at yournumbers, you have more white in
you than you dated.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
I mean you.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
I care about You're.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
African bro.
You're African, of course.
You're going to want a whitewoman.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
No, that's not true.
My mom will tell you the thingabout.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
It is like African men, when they come to America,
they're going to get a whitewoman.
That's not true, Bro.
I'm Liberian.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
I know, I've had my share of white women, but again,
the majority of all Liberians.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Oh, no, no I mean we're going to get back to what
we love.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Exactly.
So again me was not the typicalNigerian.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
And that's why you don't get a white woman.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Yeah, but you're saying all.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
Africans no, the majority of African men are
going to dabble in white women.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
So that could go both .
It could go a way ofopportunity, I think most likely
that this situation is moreopportunity.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Call it what you want , call it what you want.
So it's not like a Call it whatyou want, bro, so it's not a
preference that you have acertain personality, a certain
cultural sort of conversationsort of thing that attracts you.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
It's just the Again at the time.
Like I said, it made sense ifit worked for me and we both
meshed, it worked.
Okay, that's it.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Yeah, I personally can say at a certain point in my
life it was intentional Iactually did stop dating black
women.
Okay, and that was because,well, I was just in a stupid
point in my life and I'll justleave it at that.
But I actually just hit a pointwhere I was like you know what
(29:25):
I want to just expand.
I dated a lot of.
I was black women, white women,things like that.
But then I was just like, letme just see what else is out
there and I wanted to dateHispanic women.
I've always found Hispanicwomen attractive.
I wanted to date hispanic women.
I've always found hispanicwomen attractive.
Um, I wanted to date asianwomen.
Haven't had the opportunity todate an asian woman.
(29:46):
I want to date an indian woman.
Oh, like, I just wanted to date.
So the full rainbow opportunity.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Uh no it was.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
I was hitting a point where I looked at it and I felt
like black men, this is weird.
I felt like black men weren'tvery desirable amongst other
races.
So I was like, if I can youknow, I don't know if I can get
into every culture somehow, someway, this is gonna improve,
(30:18):
like this is gonna improve yeah,like this is gonna improve
racism.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
No, but like, yeah, he's, like I'm gonna give it to
the community I was on somestupid shit.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
I ain't like I can't properly as I think about it now
.
I was like I can't properlyarticulate it and I and I know
that I was on some stupid shitand I was probably just a young,
horny young man.
You know what I'm saying.
Like I said, it didn't matter,yeah, but I and I know that I
was on some stupid shit and Iwas probably just a young, horny
, young man, you know I'm sayinglike I said, it didn't matter
yeah, but I, I just wanted todate outside of my race, like it
didn't it and it wasn't and toa certain extent it wasn't
(30:50):
actually anything personalagainst white black women.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
Yes, it was just.
I was just trying to dateoutside my race, it didn't.
You didn't get hurt by a blackwoman numerous times that you
had to convert over.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
No, okay, that's fine .
No, I love black women.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
Okay, I love black women, mark.
What about you?
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Yeah, so my wife, we just celebrated our two-year
anniversary.
Congratulations.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
And we've been together.
Yeah, thank you thank you.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Yeah, you mentioned she's from Brazil.
You know she's black, so she'sAfro-Brazilian.
So yeah, it's.
You know I actually yeah, I amintentionally too.
I sort of intentionally did notdate white girls.
I just found again for mepersonally growing up in
(31:34):
Bethesda there's a lot of youknow know suburban Potomac sort
of kids here and it was verypreppy and no knocking anyone.
But I'm just not into like thelacrosse sort of you know prep
sort of stuff it's not, it'sjust yeah it just didn't mesh
with me and it's not like a, youknow, like a.
It's not really a race orattraction thing, it's just the
(31:55):
personality though that was withthe culture culture thing, and
again, it's just this pocket oflocation growing up in this part
of moco.
This, you know, was the sort ofgeneral overview and it's just.
It just wasn't me.
So I was rolling with differentcrowds, uh, you know which,
just sort of fit where I was atand uh, yeah, just kind of I
mean I played a part too mything, maybe with me.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
I dated a white girl one time that said that she
couldn't have a white man on topof her because she couldn't
deal with all that pastiness.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
That's some self-hate right there.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
I was looking at her like you aren't tan, but hey,
shout out to her.
You know what I'm saying.
To a certain extent I canunderstand what you're saying
because of people like her,where it's just hey, man, you
know it's no knock, but I justkind of like this and that's
(32:49):
kind of how I am.
I don't ego, like you said, Iagree with you.
I date who likes me.
Yeah, I date who likes me.
Yeah, I date who likes me.
So if a black woman likes me, Iwill probably date a black
woman.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
No, I date it all.
Like I said, it didn't matterwhat it is.
So, like I said, you can get itPow, pow, pow pow.

I'm getting my fitness, I'mgetting a little fat.
I'm a little fat and trying tolose that weight.
You know, I'm getting tired ofwhere I get ready for summer.
No, it's already summer,technically true true, not true,
true, yeah, I can't.
I can't act like it's justbecause the date didn't come out
.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
It's 90 degrees outside.
Yeah, it was like 100.
Yeah, no, you're right, it'ssummer.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
It's past Memorial Day, that means the pools are
open.
Yeah, the pools are open.
The pools are definitely open,you're right, so like.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
I'm avoiding the pools At all costs.
Right now, I understand whatyou're going through.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Yeah, exactly, I understand.
I can't keep wearing this XLshit, XL XL.
I mean, it fits well on me, butafter a while.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
I'm sucking it in all the time.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Yo, it's so funny.
So I'm at the gym, right?
Oh man, so back in the day,when you were at the gym, you
knew your gear, you knew what towear, you knew what to rock at
the gym.
You're serious, you're going infor work.
You're not going in there.
Flaunt, you're not going inthere, sure, yeah.
And it's weird to me this dayand age the way that people are
(03:53):
laxing Daisy or pretty muchdon't give a fuck how they carry
themselves.
Even at the gym I saw thishomeboy.
It fucking baffles me.
This dude was walking aroundwith a bonnet oh shit, oh shit,
a bot.
No, a women's bonnet, and I getit, I get it.
I get it.
(04:13):
Like they're it's more of acosmetic thing or not cosmetic,
like they're moisturizing theirdreads or whatever.
Oh yeah, I mean a do rag, likethe same thing, like a do ragrag
, but even a do-rag.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I'm do-rag man.
If I don't have a hat on, Ihave a do-rag on.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Okay, so you got the waves right.
It's for the waves right, yeah,but are you doing that in the
gym?
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Maybe.
So here's a question.
Then, if you're at your girl'sspot and you don't have a clean
do-rag or anything, are youtaking a bonnet?
Definitely, because it soundslike that.
Maybe is a scenario with thisguy where he ran out of options.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Look, look look, I'm not going to knock, I'm not
going to fully knock the bonnetbecause I wouldn't rock the
bonnet.
Oh my God, I mean I figure thatthere's all types of different
head wraps that the red headsand other people would use.
So the actual elastic with theruffles bonnet, I mean, I, I nah
(05:18):
yeah, I mean and I had braidsat one point in my life and even
then did you have braids?
Speaker 3 (05:23):
when you have bonnet?
I never had a bondnet, I neverhad a bonnet.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
It was always stocking cap, do-rag something
of that nature.
The thing about it is I get it.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Okay, if you have long hair you need.
But come on, man, like a bonnetis for a woman, for that long
hair, weave whatever.
It needs to be taken care of.
Sure A man wearing a bonnet.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Hey, I don't know how I feel about a bald head dude
telling people with hair whatthey should be wearing on their
head, and that's okay, becauseyou know why I accepted it, that
I didn't need it.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
What if I had dreads on the side long and I had a
bald head and I wore a bonnet?
Exactly, I mean, just stop thesentence that dreads a bonnet,
that's exactly, I mean just stopthe sentence that dreads on the
side.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Yeah, I think that's already crazy.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I would've yeah, but would it be okay though?
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I would've had a nice laugh at you, but at the same
time I wouldn't have likeknocked you for it.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
For wearing a bonnet.
A grown ass wearing a bonnet.
No, bro, I said I would havelaughed, but I wouldn't have
knocked you.
I didn't sit there and laugh ata dude in front of me.
I mean.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
I go by the I'm sorry , I go by the standards with all
, with everybody.
That it's no judgment, it's alljokes.
Yeah, so anything that you dois subject to some type of joke,
like I grew up, true, and likeI said, I grew up in, you know,
the early 2000s, in one of themost diverse high schools.
Shout out to John F KennedyHigh School in Montgomery County
(06:50):
, the only thing we did wasfight or flame, and when I say
flame, I mean we flamed eachother up.
It was verbal sparring.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Flame is the newer term.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Like we were joning, I mean, yeah, we were, joning,
we're frying them up, yeah, butthat's what I'm saying.
I mean, that's what.
That's what we did.
It was it was verbal sparringor physical sparring, but back,
either way, you were gonna doone or the other clown them up.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
But back in the day it was like you're right.
Especially when it comes tofashion kids, especially in
middle school, they'll makefunny for anything like there
are rules that don't make nosense but everyone somehow knows
them, like when I was a kid ifyou had shorts that went above
your kneecap you get nowadaysit's the opposite if you wear
pants that are below your capit's not in fashion, you look
(07:37):
weird and then on top of that,it's like if you have a brand
like a t-shirt, you got to wearthat matching brand on other
gear because you can't have an
Speaker 1 (07:46):
adidas shoe no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, nono no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no.
I've seen a lot of kids nowadayswith the Nike Tech and the
(08:07):
Yeezys.
Okay, and in our day that waslike you said.
That's blasphemy.
You know what I'm saying?
Like you were going to getfried up for mixing brands in
that fashion.
Like if you were going to mixbrands, it would have had to
been like a luxury item, likeyou could wear polo with Nikes,
(08:30):
you could wear polo with Jordans, like type thing it would not
like, not to competing brands.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
You can't have an adidas and a Reebok.
You know you couldn't do sport.
You can do fashion in sport,right yes.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
so like fashion and fashion in sport, right, yes?
Or fashion in fashion.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
No, even that's even.
Oh, it depends on what's yourmoney look like True true, true.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
That's another thing, if you got a Gucci shirt and I
guess, Balenciaga shoes, I guessI don't know if people are
going to knock you.
That's okay.
That's okay, what are theygoing to say?
You too rich.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
They make fun of you for being rich.
I don't know, so like.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
I said, that's a different tax bracket.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
I guess so, yeah, I guess, so yeah, one of those
good problems.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
You need to go to Saks See what the we live a hype
.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
True, I'm Ralph.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Lauren Polo all day.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
That's probably the highest brand that I'm going up
on True yeah, what's the mall at, what's the hub?
Speaker 3 (09:24):
I lie, I lie Highs.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
I will every now and then.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Macy's, there was Hex , and then in Friendship Heights
they had the one with NeimanMarcus and Saks, fifth Avenue
and like those ones, it was likeyou'd go in there.
I only went in there like forthe yearly sale they had, and I
was like.
They had like a bunch of stuffwas like 50% off and still $700.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Back in like, yeah, like for a small, I'm gonna give
him big.
Yeah, they had a little mom andpop joint so you can you get
the discounts or whatever.
You go to Ralph Lauren.
That was when you you use theshit and Stomping grounds oh.
Guess guess gene.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Oh yeah, I guess little stomping grounds.
Oh, I mean, I worked out there,yeah, that's why I call it
remember, guess guess jeans.
Oh yeah, I guess but oh, that'sno, no, that's too old, that's
not.
If you want to talk, see.
So we're going.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
I'm not going to do that, I'm not going to do that,
I'm not going to do that anyway.
So like, yeah, so speaking ofmark, like that, like what do
you feel about cross branding ofwearing like nike shoes with
Adidas socks and then wearingsome Reebok shorts?
Like crossing all that shit.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
For me personally.
I'm like you can't do twodifferent footwear brands.
You can't do Adidas shoes withNike socks.
That's off For me.
I always was like, if you gotshirt or shorts or hat, then
that's different because it's,like you know, is not footwear
at that point and it's also likekind of like you know, like how
(10:54):
the expectations are too high,like you gotta the loyalty to
these brands that that havingthat demands.
It's like you gotta go out andbuy mark, you're gonna do deep
no, no, no.
I'm just saying like how are yougonna have only nike stuff for
an outfit and then only adidasstuff for another outfit?
Speaker 3 (11:11):
no, no, no.
So the thing about it is you,the you grew up like for us.
When I grew up, it didn'tmatter.
You will find a way to makeeverything match.
You will find a way, okay.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
How can you make an Adidas and a Nike match?
No, because that's the thing.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
No, we won't.
That wouldn't exist If you werea Nike all or Adidas all.
There's no like wearing Adidasshirt and Nike shoes.
No.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
It would never match.
Don't do that.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
Like you don't do any brands.
If you're going to wear likeNike shoes, Nike socks, you
better have a Nike shirt oroff-brand shirt.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Off-brand, yeah it can't be, it's true.
So you got to be loyal towhatever brand you pick.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
For me when I was in elementary school, every Friday
I had a different Nike fit Iwould wear.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
And it was all Nike.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
And it had to be.
I mean, it just had to be.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
It was expensive.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
That's my point.
It was expensive at the time, Imean, and you had to.
So, like you said, at that timeI had no Reeboks, I had no
other brands.
All I wore was Nike.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
It has to make sense.
You know what I'm saying.
So when you bought shit, eventhough it would be cheaper or
whatever, you already had enoughNike that actually you had to
keep it going.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
That's what it was.
I got one For me.
I have one exception to thatrule what Slides?
If you are wearing slides, ifyou are not putting together
(12:53):
like an, if it don't look likeyou're putting together an
outfit, like you just happen tohave an off-brand shirt, you
have on your Nike sweats and youthrow on your Adidas slides and
you roll out.
I said, if you're trying to puttogether a fit and you start
cross-branding with differentsport brands, you start trying
to wear some Adidas, yeah, someAdidas pants with a Nike hoodie
or something like that.
Now I'm like, all right, bro,you look crazy.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
You look crazy and yeah, so, like that being said,
it's, it doesn't mean because me, being old school, I used to
get fried or like.
I used to get joned likebecause it didn't make sense to
the person who looks at me likehow you cross branding your gear
.
Um then, hmm, damn, I got someshit like get off my chest.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
I love to say he about to get in the therapy
session.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Look at this guy.
He's just one of those realdeep sides.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
He was about to plunge into the abyss of a
conversation.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
And you know this is all at the gym.
I haven't left the gym yet.
This is crazy.
So also Crocs, these kids,crocs in everything.
Working out in Crocs kids,crocs in everything.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Working out in Crocs.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
Playing basketball Crocs yes, it's Croc City.
It's lazy to me.
I get it.
It's comfortable, I get it,it's a fashion to them, but I
feel it's unsafe If you wererunning away from a gunshot.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
It's unsafe that was my thinking too.
You're running away from agunshot and safe.
That's.
That was my thinking too,because, again, I've never owned
a pair of crocs, I've neverworn a pair of crocs I got, so I
don't know how supportive, howattached they are to you, but
from looking at them it's likethey're basically just slides
with a little back strap aroundyour ankle.
So like yeah, you're in, butlike there's no laces, like it's
not a high top, it's one strongkick and then you can kick them
(14:35):
off probably the onlydifference between sport mode
and not sport mode.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
It's sport mode, yeah , it's sport mode.
That's what the kids call themSport mode.
Yeah, I watched a kid playbasketball in Crocs and
literally break a dude's ankles.
And when I say break them down,I mean dude fell, and at that
moment I was like that's when hequestioned his life.
Yeah, I did not.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
I did not question Crocs any longer.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Wait like he fell no, the dude, the dude dribbling
the ball had on Crocs.
The dude who was guarding himdid not have on Crocs.
He had on sneakers, high tops,laced up.
He was ready to play basketballand dude with the Crocs put him
on the ground in some Crocs andI was just like sport mode is a
(15:18):
real thing At that moment.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
I knew sport mode was a real thing.
Maybe it's because the Crocsare just like.
They're just one big piece ofmaterial and they're probably
pretty light in comparison to ashoe which has like leather and
cloth and dummy stuff.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
But, like he just said, safety, he's thinking
about support.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Like you said, it's a slide.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
It's like you're barefoot, almost there's no
support.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
So, how do you do that?
I mean, given that all thebasketball shoes nowadays are
low cuts to me, they kind ofremind me of soccer shoes Pretty
much.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Here's a question, though Was the guy that you saw
who put him on the ground, whowas wearing the Crocs?
Was he just an amazing, likegod at basketball Could be, or
was he just like an averageplayer?
Because if he was amazing andhe did that in Crocs, imagine
what he could do in regularshoes.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
That's the—and I think that's what it might have
been, but just the idea that hedid it in Crocs, yeah that.
Crocs with somebody who waslaced up ready to play it's
crazy.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
He's probably saying these niggas ain't shit.
And it was crazy because helaced up his Crocs.
I mean look at me.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
He laced up his Crocs .
Oh, he put on his Crocs.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
He came out in his Crocs, that's the new Crocs
coming out next year with laces.
He put on his Crocs came out inhis Crocs.
Yeah, laces.
That's the new Crocs coming outnext year with Laces.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
He put on his Crocs came out.
I was baffled when he keptsaying that shit he put on his
Crocs, came out and I looked athim and I was like young boy,
you really going to play in someCrocs?
Because little stuff like thatto me is in our day.
We consider that disrespectfulBecause it's like that's
(16:58):
different difference.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Yeah, we looking at you and and you don't feel like
it's serious enough to, butyou're not taking the time to
put on real shoes.
Yeah, to play, you don't thinkthat the person you're playing
is worth it.
And bro, you know, and thenhe's, and then he did that, and
then he did that.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
That is impressive and then he did that and at that
moment I was like you know whatsport mode is?
A real thing, um, um, I won'tdoubt it anymore I mean, I put,
I put on some Crocs, I put onsome Crocs, bro, and they
weren't in for me.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Yeah, see.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
But for this kid those were as good as some
Jordans, I'm going to have totrack Crocs next time I go to
the shoe store.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
I'm going to just put them on and walk them around,
go check them out.
Go check them out.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Try that, go check them out.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
All right, is this like ego?
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Let me cook, let me cook.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Let me cook.
I got something else to say ohdamn, go ahead, I got something
else to say?
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Go ahead.
Are we still at the gym?
Speaker 2 (17:41):
No, we moved on.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Okay, cool, all right .
So now I pretty much said, allright, this is not my error, I'm
good, I'm going to keep itmoving.
I left the gym and you know,next day I'm still thinking
about it.
And then I start thinking aboutthe way the fashion is nowadays
.
I'm walking around campus andyou know my campus.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
This guy was on an edible or something because he
just was mad introspective.
What was you on, bro?
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Get out of my face.
What was you on?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Anywho, anywho, so what would you want, bro?
Speaker 2 (18:13):
get out my face.
What?
Speaker 3 (18:14):
would you want, tell me any who any who so when I'm
walking around looking at howpeople carry themselves, this,
this new thing, like there's alot of like I don't know if it's
the jeans cut or the way likewomen wear their clothes.
Everybody in, everybody isthick, doesn't matter what race
(18:39):
it is, doesn't matter how theycarry themselves I was like and
maybe it's my eyes and maybe Ican't see anymore maybe I need
to change my prescription.
Maybe I'm like bald and blindand blind, but everything.
Well, actually I'm probablyseeing more.
Like I see, I've seen allangles and what did y'all think
(19:01):
like, how do y'all feel about,like this day and age, like how
they carry themselves, like allraces, like the races of any,
like woman wearing jeans,wearing uh spandex or is, I
think, like you were talkingabout that.
It's like the idea that, likegym clothes like you know what
used to be, we can go in a gymclothes that shit's like nothing
(19:22):
.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Oh yeah, like the rise of Lululemon, you know, and
like popular is like Fableticsand you know Zella and all these
, like companies that makebasically Lululemon sort of like
.
You know, tight sweatpants andit's like guys and girls wear
them and they're tight and it'slike gym clothes but they make
them so they're like everydayclothes too and they, I think,
(19:44):
like everybody wears them now aslike uh you know, some of them
are like office clothes too.
so, uh, that I guess has been arise, and maybe the tight
clothes is not just skinny jeans, but, like you know,
Everything's fitted.
Everything's fitted,everything's tight.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Yeah, we went through a situation or an era I should
say situation an era whereeverything was baggy and then it
changed really fast, it seemedlike, to where everything got
European, cut and skinny, andthat's for the men.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
That's not even for the women.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Skinny shorts, skinny jeans, skinny, whatever I
remember when I was in sixth andseventh grade.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
it was like the big baggy pants, like the skater
pants, Like if you had jeans.
That almost engulfed your shoesand you couldn't even see what
shoes you were wearing.
That was the cool thing at thetime.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Was that Jenko's?
Yeah, jenko's.
They were big all those joints.
Yeah, like uh, like you know,like the back in the day, like
onyx, yeah like uh, naughty bynature when you wore jeans and
then you tucked them in likeyour boot.
But then it was baggy as hell,right, and then and then also
skater fit like a skater, yeahskater fit and then also in the
hip hop realm.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
You know when Nelly was doing, you know his bandaid
sort of routine.
He had the massive Like XL,like that was a big thing in the
early 2000s.
It was like Like triple, youknow XL.
You know t-shirts and all thatstuff it was across the board
and in a lot of demographicsthere.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
No, but the seam of my t-shirt Would come down to
about here.
Instead of sitting on myshoulder, it would be down here
and I felt like I was the man.
I felt like I was wearingsomething that fit.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
It's interesting too, because guys' clothes like
there's a new thing where it'slike you wear skinny jeans and
then a big oversized shirt, Likeoversized shirts, are making a
big comeback and some of themwill have like fitted torso and
then big oversized sleeves.
That don't you know they'remade to not fit with your arms
so it's a japanese cut.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
There's a lot of.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
There's honestly a lot of baggy baggy pants coming
back out yeah I'm noticing that,like flared out ankles and
things like that.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
I mean thank you.
Yeah, like the 70s, bellbottoms are making a comeback
for women too.
Why are you doing that?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
I'm just saying they're around, People are
buying them.
They're bringing all of it back.
I mean because to these kidsit's all that 70s.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
That's a new trend.
It's an ancient time 50 yearsold.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
It's like kids nowadays buying music will often
buy it tape, cassettes becauseit's an.
It's like an old analog thingthat's historic and prehistoric
to them and they, you know theyget the digital download but
it's a cool little thing thatthey can put on their desk and
their shelves and stuff I saw avideo one time where these kids
saw a tape cassette oh, yeah, inthe car, yeah, and they were
(22:31):
like oh cool, it's an iphoneholder yeah, or the kid looking
at the old, uh like nokia phoneand he's like how come it has a
hashtag on here and it doesn'teven have a full screen, like,
how are you going to do that?
Well, you can't even download.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Tick tock hashtag, that's correct I know right
hashtag pound tag all righthashtag, that's crazy so like
yeah, so we're talking about,like the way women wearing their
stuff.
So what do y'all think aboutdifferent races carrying?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
themselves.
No, I mean from what you weresaying is the gym culture has
actually gotten big.
That's why I feel like thelegging culture has gotten big.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Women wearing leggings has gotten big Pretty
much.
The booty is always going to beenhanced.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
As it should.
As it should, is it motivating?
Speaker 2 (23:24):
I just like the way that he started that sentence.
He tried to sound an intercutand say the booty.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
The booty.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I just love that interjection right there to
start a sentence.
The booty meat.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
But yeah, that's what it is.
Gym culture's gotten really big, so a lot of stuff that women
wear are from the gym and thingsof that nature.
And not to mention these gymcompanies.
You see them.
They wear the leggings.
They make the leggings with thelittle shadows on the butts or
under the butts to make thebutts look better.
Enhanced, enhanced, yes, and itworks.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
So I guess that I keep wearing them, ladies, and
that's the same thing.
But they transfer that over tojeans now, too, that's what I'm
wearing, oh yeah, even jeans.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Yeah, so the jeans are specially fit.
I mean, jeans aren't reallylike all denim anymore, they're
like stretchy.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
Yeah, they're stretchy with the skinny jean
era because you can't wear realdenim.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Sergio Valente's.
Thank you, ladies.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
I remember those.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Remember that era.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
I'm trying to hold, I'm hitting a vapor.
I'm like yo, I'm trying to holdit in this guy.
No, no, no, no.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
That's funny.
You got to understand that.
That's that, parasuco sergiovalente.
Era was a special era for, for,for young men, for young women,
everybody.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
It was a a special, special era I will say you know
what I think that has gone away,which I haven't seen a lot is
like the, you know the, the pumaor you know the, the one suit
where you have a top and abottom and it's kind of like the
velvet material, kind of likethe uma thurman kill bill sort
of uh, yeah, the track suits,yeah the valor, but yeah like
(25:09):
it's not like a track seat likeyou work out in, it's like a
relax no, they got, they gotpeople doing that yeah, but
that's like high end, like ifyou do, yeah, like the.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
I think there's a Puma with Supreme, oh, Supreme.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
They'll sell you a stapler with Supreme written on
it for $700.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Exactly these motherfuckers Like yo.
But it's, I kind of want, it, Ikind of want it.
Wow, because the thing about itis not, everybody has it.
It's the same time you see atracksuit with, like a louis
tracksuit.
No, no, there's no way I'm forthat shit.
No, I mean, don't get ittwisted they.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Everything is like we said gym culture is big, so
everything is athleisure yeah soif, even if you are wearing
this for casual, you can stillgo work out true, you know what
I'm saying.
So I guess velour is one ofthose things where it's not
moisture wicking.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
So if you were to go work out in a velour sweatsuit.
It's going to be shut up to youyeah.
You're going to ruin it, yeah,or you're going to have a bad
experience.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Yeah, you might as well go work out in a leather
suit.
True, it's just good to go.
But yeah, speaking, speaking,but yeah, speaking of all the
cultures in the gym andeverything like that, like you
were just saying with thedifferent races.
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Different races, different cultures, whatever.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
As gentlemen I know to put our personal business out
there we are all gentlemen whodate outside of our race.
I need to ask you, gentlemen,was that ever?
Was that something that y'alldid consciously, or is that
something that just kind ofhappened for y'all?
I mean because I know, mark,your wife is Brazilian, yeah,
ego.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
I have a Polish wife.
I mean girlfriend wife.
Wow, yeah, I got to say it.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Hey, to say it, hey, hey shut up.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
So so the thing about me like, like for this topic
it's weird.
Like I was never like putmyself in a box to date, only
one race.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
I date people who like me I date people I worked
with me I like.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
So again, I dated, uh , black, I did it white, I did
it asian, I dated indian, I didanything that actually made
sense for me because, again, I'mall about no headache, sure, I
don't give a fuck who it is,what color you are, whatever, if
it works for me, it works forme.
But most of my friends probablywas like if you look at your
(27:35):
statistics, if you look at yournumbers, you have more white in
you than you dated.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
I mean you.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
I care about You're.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
African bro.
You're African, of course.
You're going to want a whitewoman.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
No, that's not true.
My mom will tell you the thingabout.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
It is like African men, when they come to America,
they're going to get a whitewoman.
That's not true, Bro.
I'm Liberian.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
I know, I've had my share of white women, but again,
the majority of all Liberians.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Oh, no, no I mean we're going to get back to what
we love.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Exactly.
So again me was not the typicalNigerian.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
And that's why you don't get a white woman.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Yeah, but you're saying all.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
Africans no, the majority of African men are
going to dabble in white women.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
So that could go both .
It could go a way ofopportunity, I think most likely
that this situation is moreopportunity.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Call it what you want , call it what you want.
So it's not like a Call it whatyou want, bro, so it's not a
preference that you have acertain personality, a certain
cultural sort of conversationsort of thing that attracts you.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
It's just the Again at the time.
Like I said, it made sense ifit worked for me and we both
meshed, it worked.
Okay, that's it.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Yeah, I personally can say at a certain point in my
life it was intentional Iactually did stop dating black
women.
Okay, and that was because,well, I was just in a stupid
point in my life and I'll justleave it at that.
But I actually just hit a pointwhere I was like you know what
(29:25):
I want to just expand.
I dated a lot of.
I was black women, white women,things like that.

I was hitting a point where I looked at it and I felt
like black men, this is weird.
I felt like black men weren'tvery desirable amongst other
races.
So I was like, if I can youknow, I don't know if I can get
into every culture somehow, someway, this is gonna improve,

racism.

the community I was on somestupid shit.
Speaker 1 (30:28):

.
I was like I can't properlyarticulate it and I and I know
that I was on some stupid shitand I was probably just a young,
horny young man.
You know what I'm saying.
Like I said, it didn't matter,yeah, but I and I know that I
was on some stupid shit and Iwas probably just a young, horny
, young man, you know I'm sayinglike I said, it didn't matter
yeah, but I, I just wanted todate outside of my race, like it
didn't it and it wasn't and toa certain extent it wasn't
(30:50):

Speaker 3 (30:52):

I sort of intentionally did notdate white girls.
I just found again for mepersonally growing up in
(31:34):
Bethesda there's a lot of youknow know suburban Potomac sort
of kids here and it was verypreppy and no knocking anyone.
But I'm just not into like thelacrosse sort of you know prep
sort of stuff it's not, it'sjust yeah it just didn't mesh
with me and it's not like a, youknow, like a.
It's not really a race orattraction thing, it's just the
(31:55):
personality though that was withthe culture culture thing, and
again, it's just this pocket oflocation growing up in this part
of moco.
This, you know, was the sort ofgeneral overview and it's just.
It just wasn't me.
So I was rolling with differentcrowds, uh, you know which,
just sort of fit where I was atand uh, yeah, just kind of I
mean I played a part too mything, maybe with me.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
I dated a white girl one time that said that she
couldn't have a white man on topof her because she couldn't
deal with all that pastiness.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
That's some self-hate right there.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
I was looking at her like you aren't tan, but hey,
shout out to her.
You know what I'm saying.
To a certain extent I canunderstand what you're saying
because of people like her,where it's just hey, man, you
know it's no knock, but I justkind of like this and that's
(32:49):
kind of how I am.
I don't ego, like you said, Iagree with you.
