Speaker 1 (00:00):
Smoke Joe in the morning, Kevin you this weekend, feeling
a little sad as he felt like, where's the music from?

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Is that hold on? That might be my phone?

Speaker 1 (00:16):
Feeling all sad in his feels, as the girls like
to say, because.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
He is all alone at Christmas.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
No, just being single just sucks sometimes like it's amazing
and it has its its beautiful moments, but there are
other times where it's not beautiful. And when you gotta
go grocery shopping by yourself, you gotta come home.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
You gotta put up the groceries by yourself.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
You gotta take the trash out, throw that away, then
refiel the trash bag, then wash the dishes or dish washing,
being clean up after yourself. You gotta cook like it's
just this is not what it's cracked up to be.
When it's come down to use responsibilities. You gotta decorate
by yourself. You gotta hang lights by yourself, build a
Christmas treat by himself, decorated by yourself, go to the

(01:02):
mail room by yourself.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
You just got to do everything alone.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
Necessarily, all alone. You've got your son, You've got your mom,
You've got grandmama.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
I'm talking about I'm talking about household household thing like yes, man,
like my mama not coming over my house, Josiah Thera
when he there, but he's not helping me in his
room playing robots because this weekend he's like.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Dad, it's a full server an update?

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Like do you so you think about this when you
got all the stuff at the holidays and you're like, man,
I gotta get you gotta wife yourself, somebody up.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
I'm not going out.

Speaker 4 (01:36):
Here's my question. I feel like you have a lot
of interested callers. What is preventing you from getting into
a relationship because when we talk, it sounds like you
don't want to be in one.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Really do I give off that impression?

Speaker 4 (01:49):
I literally thought you told me that the other day.
Was that's just not what you're looking for right now.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
I'm not looking for it.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
I'm not reaching my hand out searching for a relationship
at the moment.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
I want to be ready when that happens.

Speaker 3 (02:02):
But while I'm in my waiting period, I can't acknowledge
that this is what's going on right now.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
It sucks the way you're single. Do you feel but like.

Speaker 4 (02:13):
I feel, I feel like you have options and you're
not taking those options.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
No, no, no, just because you have options don't mean
they're for you. I need to be intentional because things are.
Things aren't incorrect, they're incomplete. And I think sometimes when
you try to move too fast, that's when you have
a blessing at first, and then since it's incomplete, it

(02:39):
no longer starts to look like a blessing just because
it's not fool And that's when you start rushing in
other stuff. And I'm not trying to rush into something
because I'm just quote unquote incomplete.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
Right, Okay, yeah, you better by the way, you know
how they always say, don't get into a relationship when
you're just getting over a relationship because you might run
too fast. That is the reason why is because you
don't want to, because you're missing out on certain things.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
You want to just race into something and.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Then next thing you know, you're you know, knee deep
into it, and next thing you know, you're like, what
the hell did I just do?

Speaker 3 (03:09):
And a lot of times too, when you run from
relationships to relationship, like say you got out of a terrible,
terrible relationship. It was a level ten like terrible situation.
You can get to somebody that's just a level eight
and think you've upgraded and it's still like eight is
still terrible.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
But it would be nice to have somebody to help
put you the tree up, put your groceries away.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
I mean the tree was like it was Amazon. I
was just three parts. But still you got to do
all of this stuff.

Speaker 5 (03:33):
It's so interesting because you said something really important though
you said it while I'm in my waiting period, so
you know that this is your quote unquote waiting period
that there is going to eventually be somebody absolutely, so
like I almost want to tell you to look at
it right now. If you are able to do everything
the way you want to do it, m that's a
good one, then you're going to have some lady come

(03:56):
into your life. That's like our Christmas tree is going to.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Be pink matching and not for Amazon.

Speaker 5 (04:05):
And you don't put the dishes away this way, keV,
You do it this way.

Speaker 6 (04:09):
You know?

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Yeah, Kevin, Kevin, why don't you uh you invite friends over?

Speaker 2 (04:16):
No, I'm not good. Do you think you think I
was gonna go down?

Speaker 4 (04:18):
Friends aren't helping you do the dishes.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Have friends come over that like and make it a
make it a thing that where it's fun, like invite
Zach over, so that.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Will help you, I will say lately I have because
I don't know. I like to entertain people, but I
don't like to host people. That makes sense. But I'm
not a come over to the crib y'all, like let's
have fun at my place. Like I'm not that type
of person. But lately I've been inviting the homies to
come over and watch like Thursday night football or Monday
night football.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
Like starting to get more into into that. What's up, Brittany.

Speaker 7 (04:50):
I.

Speaker 8 (04:51):
I just was listening in on the show, and I
just wanting to put my input in about like he's
not missing a lot where he wants a housemaid, Oh.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
Help me? Maybe maybe he needs like Molly Maide to come.

Speaker 8 (05:10):
Over decorator, he wants things done for him.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Yeah, well with with me, just with me.

Speaker 5 (05:18):
Was there one thing, like one instance that really made
you feel it?

Speaker 2 (05:22):
Because I feel like all the things.

Speaker 3 (05:24):
You just well it was a culmination but being hungry
and like not wanting to prepare a good meal and
just like like all right, let me just eat up
these Tyson chicken patties and make some popcorn. That's gonna
be dinner because I don't feel like preparing something because
you're not gonna prepare it just for yourself. Yeah, and
it takes time to make something nice.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
What's up, Amy, how you doing. I just wanted to say, Kevin,
welcome to being a woman.

Speaker 6 (05:51):
Yeah, every year, all the time, every day.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
All right, thank you for having me. I appreciate.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
I actually do think that there's a bit of Kevin
that he has been single for a good period of time.
Been a year now. Maybe it is time for you
to find a relationship. Maybe you're ready.

Speaker 5 (06:14):
Don't necessarily find a relationship. I think if you found
somebody that you could just do things with every once
in a while, kind of like easier way back in
it's only been a year.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
This guy was actually not he was about to get married.

Speaker 5 (06:28):
I understand, that's why I'm saying. But it's only been
a year.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
It's dated.

Speaker 5 (06:34):
A year, okay, but you've dated people, You've gone out
with people, you had someone reverse.

Speaker 2 (06:39):

that there have been even posted over the weekend picture
of him, Josiah and Josiah's mom, Jazz.

Saturday was great.

that is pulling the two of you guys closer together.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
And it's not just Josiah.

Speaker 1 (07:05):

I think that you have done it for a long
time without you know, and you've been there both. You
guys have been so good for Josiah. You guys are
getting along better than you did. I bet you back
in the days when you guys made Josiah absolutely, So

Oh my god, nice to meet to Tracy. Hello this topic.
What's going on? Yeah, this is Kevin's dating service.

Speaker 6 (10:38):
Being single sucks. I was married for twenty four years
with him for thirty and around holidays it evens worse.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
It's worse.

Speaker 6 (10:46):
I get Kevin's feelings and doing things by yourself sucks.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Yeah, I could see that.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
You know, we talked with Anna about the same exact
conversation not that long ago. It's tough around the holidays.
The beauty of it.

Speaker 6 (11:00):
Is a few totally change.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
Did y'all have children?

Speaker 6 (11:08):
We have four beautiful children. They're all grown, none of
them live at home.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Would you like to get married again?

Speaker 4 (11:15):
Still? Do it?

Speaker 6 (11:16):
I don't know. I don't know. Twenty four years and
then just be done. I don't know if I could.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
That's amazing.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
That's a long time, twenty four years together and then
not being to get you know, that's I could see
where that would be tough.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
That's odored in Bianca. Would you like to would you
like to get together with Captain Leslie? They're getting not
a bad time.

Speaker 6 (11:36):
Let's go on single dates?

Speaker 2 (11:38):
Okay? Reaching do it? Oh God? All right?

Speaker 1 (11:43):
Crystal wants to make a comment about will keV ever
get together with Josiah's mom?

Speaker 2 (11:47):
Would you want to say, Crystal? I want to say
absolutely not.

Speaker 7 (11:52):
And I say that because if you really wanted to
be with her, you guys would have gotten together by now,
and because I'm not sure exactly what would be holding
you back outside of you just don't want to be together,
and there's nothing wrong with that, and you can still
parent and have a great relationship, which.

Speaker 2 (12:12):
It seems like you guys do, which is great.

Speaker 7 (12:15):
So don't ruin that by trying to force something that's
obviously not happening.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
Well, it happens.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
It has to be right, because remember, you do not
want to mess with Josiah.

Speaker 3 (12:26):
Absolutely and I would never do that. He will always
be the priority. But to your point about me making
it happen, I tried to make it happen before, and
she didn't want to be with me, so it wasn't me.
What is she saying?

Speaker 2 (12:40):
How long ago? Is that? That was years ago?

Speaker 5 (12:43):
What would she say now?

Speaker 2 (12:45):
I don't know. This is a by the way, it's
a plot twist.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
You want to know it's plot twist because I always
thought that keV was just you know, having his fun
with Jasmine. I didn't realize that she turned you away,
which means there's a piece of you it still has.
You can ask her finish the business she fills in
this week. Wait, is that happening?

Speaker 2 (13:05):
Why not? Okay, all right, hold on a second.
