Speaker 3 (00:51):
Whoa take it away because he's not going to sink.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
Ha ha ha.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
We only do this to piss off the three people
who hate well, that's the only.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
Reason we still do this. It's a commitment to hate.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Yes, absolutely.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
On the mountain.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Hey, everybody, welcome back to the Blackest Show about Nothing.
It's Jaden x D. We have very very special guests.
He is making his annual visit to the show to
let us know that he doesn't hate us like that way.

Speaker 4 (01:58):
My lawyer, you know, you know, you know, you can't
get too litigious because stereo.

Speaker 5 (02:12):
We've missed you, Thank you, thank you. I've been very well.
It's nice to see y'all. I hear you all every week,
but it's cool to see y'all as well. Things are doing,
you know, as do as well as one could be
doing all things considered in this present setting.

Speaker 4 (02:28):
M hm, And how is your your job and stuff
with all of the ever swift changes happen pretty important?

Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yeah, it's weird.

Speaker 5 (02:41):
I'm really I'm in the bubble, which makes it hard
to know what it's like outside the bubble. But what's
up getting too into the details? You know, things are?
You know, I have a technical job, so the machines
don't know any better. So that's nice, but there are
many times when I'm definitely you know, at work hearing

(03:04):
about not just what's happening, but how people are talking
about what's happening, and it's hard not to get frustrated.
And so one of the many reasons why I really
love and appreciate you guys, you know, giving me the
opportunity to be a part of this show, because I
feel like it's also like my like making up for
the fact that I'm also my day job is like

(03:25):
at the Evil Empire.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
Oh well, I'm so glad that we could abes on
the right side of things always.

Speaker 5 (03:33):
I really feel no, no, no, I really feel like
you know, what resonates with me is what is it?
I'm not part of the problem, but I'm not part
of the solution. Yeah, yeah, that's yeah, same.

Speaker 4 (03:46):
It's an honest assessment. I'm trying to be.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
I will I'm trying to be are part of the solution.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
But yeah, me too.

Speaker 5 (03:54):
I'll definitely get out of the way for people who
are willing to help, though, you know, I will not
block them from you know, making this play a better place.

Speaker 4 (04:01):
Will you guard them? Will you ban your arms when
ICE show?

Speaker 5 (04:06):
I mean, honestly, if we're banning our arms, yeah, I
think my elbows will move up automatically.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
All right, Bet, I like to hear that, because that's
what they're doing. If you are, can I just say
this here actually I have news and then we'll go
into how we are. You know, ice, ICE is doing
the most. And if you all happen to encounter them

(04:32):
in your area, because I know they're they're prevalent here.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
They're prevalent.

Speaker 4 (04:35):
I learned in San Diego and San Jose, you know,
places with heavy immigrant populations. But they can only do
so much with manpower. So make sure you all are
stepping don't don't get out of the way if they're coming,
like be in the way, like you have to be
in the way. People are getting snatched up on the street.

(04:57):
It's all kinds of things happening.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
So they have like plain clothes ice officers going to
schools now, especially here in the LA area. So I
don't know how to say, like look out because it's
you know, it's very difficult.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
But I be aware of your surroundings.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Be aware of your surroundings. And I and I'm very
weary of like like gathering and protesting now and I
and I get that's the whole point of this now,
right to like, oh, well, if we're gonna they're gonna
protest and Lava will get them there and then we'll
do whatever and whatever evil ship that they do. But
you know, just like you said, be aware, yeah, be

(05:41):
safe and be aware and resist safely as you can. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (05:44):
Yeah, And there's there's there's power and numbers. So you
know what I'm saying, You gotta you gotta put your
fear to the side and bend with the people who
are around you to make sure that this ship is
as slow as possible because they're evil. Because as we
learn this week, JD. Vance killed the pope.

Speaker 5 (06:07):
Do you think Donald Trump sent him to kill the
pope or he was on his own mission.

Speaker 4 (06:10):
You know, they are two sides of the same evil coin.
You know, I talk about how the right is made
up of a conglomerate of hate. There's the money hate.
There's the capitalism hate, where they're like, yeah, what you do,
what you want, I just want to make sure I'm.

Speaker 3 (06:26):
As rich as possible.

Speaker 4 (06:27):
Then there's the evangelical hate, which is also baseless, which
is rooted in just full white supremacy. It's like not
even just power of money, but it's like, no, we
are the grand and you can't reason with people like that.
And then oh, and then there's the pores. There's the
pors who don't realize that they are standing on the
side of everybody who hates them, and they're still banding

(06:51):
with them. So the Right is made up of just
a band of evil, nasty Some of them are idiots
and some of them are not idiots, and that's the problem.
So you know that we have to do what we
can because they are swiftly moving and pure evil these days.
Actually recently and you know, I haven't done weekly updates

(07:14):
every week, but we definitely have some. Thank god, I
Bisan she's doing all right, and she's our voice on
the ground as they continue to kill journalists in Gaza.
So the last couple of days, thirty kidney patients and
GDZA have died due to their inability to receive dialysis.
The kidney departments are unable to function due to the
lack of fuel, medical equipment and supplies, and blockade in

(07:38):
the blockade imposed on Gods of four. Approximately forty days
now and one month, thirty five one hundred children have
been hospitalized due to malnutrition because of a famine that
is becoming more inevitable and dangerous with every hour that
passes without the crosses being opened. So remember that they're
blocking the aid getting in. They also are are blowing

(08:00):
up and lighting tanks and bulldozers on fire that are
supposed to be used to clear rubble, and they recently
in the last couple of days, after they blew up
a bunch of bulldozers, then dropped pamphlets on the people
of Gaza basically bragging about blowing.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
Up their bulldozers.

Speaker 4 (08:22):
So it's just constant, constant, constant evil that's going on.
Also in Sudan, remember we spoke recently about the RSF
taking control back of Al Fasher. They're continuing they're continuing
to rain terror on them. At least eight civilians have
been killed in the last twenty four hours, twenty injured,

(08:42):
and more than thirty people have been killed in Elfasher
in the last two days alone. So we want to
continue to pay attention to what's going on across the globe.

Speaker 3 (08:51):
And here on our own land.

Speaker 4 (08:53):
They're very much tied, They're very much connected, and I
think solidarity is going to be the only thing that's
going to be to sustain us in any way, shape
form of fashion in all of this.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
Yeah, oh boy, I do have some news. It may
be seem a little light, but it's not we need.
I mentioned this and this.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
I know where you're going.

Speaker 1 (09:22):
No, it's a serious thing. Sea lions are attacking people. Yeah,
so sea lions and like viciously attacking people, like along
the coast of California from the Bay all the way
to down here in LA.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
What did the people attack.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
Well, I'll tell you. So. We have a poisonous algae
problem in the world, and so these sea lions have
been eating the algae and it has been messing with
their brain chemistry, allowing them to become violent.

Speaker 6 (10:09):
California sea lions are in trouble. Many of them have
become extremely aggressive after ingesting algae blooms through the fish
they eat. It's a neurotoxin that chickens them to the
point where the mammals are acting abnormally. Here's ABC News
reporter Andrew dimper So.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
Now, to be fair, when I saw the news, now
I've seen a couple of news.

Speaker 4 (10:32):
Reports, it was like, algae is brown liquors.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Yeah, I've yes, Yes, it's exactly that. Like they are
getting fucked up off of this algae, like toking down.
And I first thought it was funny, and then I
saw the people who are getting attacked. I was like,
Nina need But then I was like, no, wait a minute,
Wait a minute, Wait a minute, wait a minute. Now,
damn it. This goes back to what we talked about

(11:02):
with oceans and how there's a whole bunch of ship
that's in there that we don't know.

Speaker 4 (11:07):
It's none of our business either, Like that is really
the main thing.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
It's none of your fucking business.

Speaker 4 (11:15):
That's what I said. They're attacking for a reason. You
see the algae's poison. Why why is algae poison?

Speaker 1 (11:22):
Because we do nuclear testing in the middle of the
Pacific Ocean.

Speaker 5 (11:25):
But why do I feel like there's like somehow orcas
are involved and they're they're getting those sea lions hooked
on that algae because they're like, you know, they're kind
of schemy.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
They're like, uh, they probably are. What it's like the
what is that thing? We watched Jay with that cartoon
with the with all the Disney characters, and they it
was like peer pressure and they got like bugs Bundy.

Speaker 4 (11:48):
Oh All Stars cartoon, I don't think so holds.

Speaker 3 (11:56):
Yeah, it was.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
It was back when when Barbara Bush got the baton
from Nancy Reagan on the no Drug you Know campaign,
and so they had this cartoon All Stars and I
may xd watch it on Patrion and it's essentially every
cartoon you've ever thought of, from Garfield to whoever.

Speaker 3 (12:18):
And this kid who's on this drug trip.

Speaker 4 (12:25):
It was amazing. If you've never watched it. It came out,
I want to say, in the early nineties. It was
very big in school.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
Yeah. I think it came on like a special ABC.

Speaker 4 (12:38):
Yeah, Like it was like a two part situation and it,
like I said, it had the Smurfs, it had Garfield,
they had everybody and this kid is essentially on this
drug trip for an hour and seeing all.

Speaker 3 (12:53):
Of these different characters.

Speaker 4 (12:55):
Let me find this cartoon All Stars, Anti drug.

Speaker 1 (13:02):

longtime listeners, at the dinner party, I had a young
lady who was there, lovely, and she was like, I've

(15:53):
been listening to you all the whole time since you
guys and a girls started I was in high school both,
and she's like, you know, now I'm a grown lady
in my twenties, you know, working and so forth. And
I was like, I was a grown lady in my
twenties when we started this, and now I'm a middle
aged woman.

Speaker 3 (16:12):
Isn't that nuts?

Speaker 1 (16:14):
That's yeah, that's you shape. That's wow.

Thing or you've you've you've must have been quite an influence.

Speaker 1 (16:31):
Yeah, that's loyalty.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
So we're grateful.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
We're very very yeah, yeah, super grateful. It also puts
the perspective how long we've been doing this, like, you know,
from high school to you know, doing the things in
their adult personhood. Like people say that to me too, like, oh,
I used to watch her YouTube videos in high school.
And then I'm like, y'all are in your thirties now,

(16:54):
like that's weird, but it's all appreciative, all the same movie.
This week, we are heading into Reddit stories and I'll
talk about the theme when we get back after these
messages hit it cloud.

Speaker 7 (17:14):
After these messages will be right back.

Speaker 8 (17:20):
This planet is threatened with destruction, and we who live
in it with death the Heaven's reply, the waters below,
the foul children die in infancy, and we and the
world which is our home, and we're black.

Speaker 4 (17:44):
Okay, So before we start these reddest stories, I just
want to share with you all that I watched, hands down,
the worst slavery movie I've ever seen in my forty
years of life.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
Well that's really hard to be like, oh, this is
an amazing slave.

Speaker 4 (18:03):
No, but like you know how so you know how
like with Underground, it was like, you know, obviously the
foundation of all of them is depressing, but at least
like with Underground, don't you start your ship?

Speaker 3 (18:14):
Either, don't you start your ship?

Speaker 1 (18:17):
But with under it's so funny because I had this
argument yesterday about Underground in person.

Speaker 4 (18:23):
It was a well done show and I wanted to see.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
You complained about it being canceled as if we aren't.
The results of the end of the.

Speaker 3 (18:32):
Show anyway were.

Speaker 4 (18:34):
They were results of everybody wants me to get into action,
and they were about to have Harriet Tubman get into
like full action and Underground, and then it got canceled.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Have you never seen Underground?

Speaker 5 (18:44):
No?

Speaker 1 (18:44):
Forgive me I heaven. Okay. So it was Journey TV show,
so it was like Slavery on Avazar, so.

Speaker 5 (18:55):
Limited series it was.

Speaker 3 (18:57):
No, it wasn't supposed to be limited it was.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
It was seasons, so which also, why are we dragging
slavery Slavery season one, season two, season three? And then
at the end of it, Cynthia Revo comes about it
because we was it was not, and and she comes
into like a magic groove and the show, first.

Speaker 4 (19:20):
Of all, you just blend this seven things in a row, character,
Love Care Country, It's all the same show regardless in
all seriousness.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
It's really about slavery, it is. And then she does
play Harriet types.

Speaker 3 (19:33):
Not Cynthia Rivo. Anyway.

Speaker 4 (19:39):
This movie was hands down the worst it was called for.
And then I don't know if it's called forty or
The Haunting, it's one of the others. The only person
who I recognized who it was starring sister Tanya from
Everybody Hates Chris. And it was the most disjointed. It

(20:02):
tried to blend some fantasy. It was Allah that kindred,
but like done really really horribly, so like none of
it was like an Irish man who acted like he
was an ally and then he ended up betraying them,
and he was trapping the souls of the enslaved, and
then it come to find out it was really the mother,
and but she was like supposed to be saving people

(20:24):
and maybe she was Harriet Tubman.

Speaker 3 (20:26):
It was very weird, but it was horrible.

Speaker 4 (20:30):
And I encourage everybody to go watch it because I
don't want.

Speaker 3 (20:33):
To live in my own misery.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
Where were you watching?

Speaker 3 (20:37):
Amazon Prime? I don't watch too. I have more self
respect with that.

Speaker 4 (20:48):
The second thing is that we have to have a
discussion on the documentary Into the Fire.

Speaker 9 (20:55):
She'd been missing twenty one years when they finally found me.
I was only seventeen years old when I put my
daughter for adoption. Throughout my life, she's always in my mind.

Speaker 1 (21:09):
What's that about?

Speaker 3 (21:12):
Typing is cracking me.

Speaker 4 (21:15):
Into the fire. It's about a girl who disappeared. We
don't know if she ran away or was kidnapped, and
the quest to find out what really happened to her.
I'm gonna leave it there because I feel like we
need to have an actual conversation about it and the
twist that it took in the story.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
Nuts.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
We haven't watched any like nuts white people stuff in
a while, so I feel like it's time.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
This is what I was going to tell you about
direct TV on the other things. So like now, ever
since I got cable, I've realized cable has changed in
a way that it really appears to like the Internet,
our appeals in the Internet. Like they have a fail
Army channel. I'm like, what I watched Phil Army on
you Army as a channel. Think America is funny at

(22:05):
home videos but more violently.

Speaker 4 (22:07):
Oh okay violent phil arm Okay, all right, Army.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
It's great to smoke too.

Speaker 4 (22:12):
By the way, Like I know mine always calls me
at the rock.

Speaker 1 (22:20):
Yeah, it threw me off. But they have they have
a whole dateline channel and so and a twenty twenty channel.
So I've been just randomly popping in and I'm like, oh,
I'm locked in so I was watching this. Uh, there's
a lot of social media deaths and things going on,

(22:45):
but then there's this one story that's going around this
one guy on this YouTuber and I watched him. He
like goes on house tours or whatever, but he like
attempted to off his significant.

Speaker 3 (23:01):
Yeah, okay, hold on, let me find the story.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
It was nuts. I was like, YouTuber, he's like a
home tours Yeah, yes, Eric Conover. And it's like we've
all seen him around like going viral because he does,
like on TikTok like he was a he was a
New York real estate.

Speaker 5 (23:23):
He looks like he's a real estate person. Is this
suit too small?

Speaker 1 (23:29):
M you do that?

Speaker 3 (23:31):
Yeah? Oh quite small.

Speaker 10 (23:34):
So he killed his significant other attempted, attempted, and then
he like makes these like videos like from prison, and
it's like my dieligence will evicerate you.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
And it's just like, oh no, you did that ship
you definitely try to kill somebody, sir. I have everything
right here and it's all and falsified.

Speaker 11 (23:54):
Eric Conover had a lot to say before his arraignment
this afternoon.

Speaker 7 (23:59):
Anyone dares right to test my mental confidence, I will
I will infiserate every single person with my intelligence right now.

Speaker 5 (24:05):
And that's Oh, this is sounding familiar, I think in
a group chat. I mean, my friends were talking about this.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
But I don't know.

Speaker 5 (24:12):
I'm just slowly I feel like as a culturally or
like someone who's like as someone who is somewhat aware
of like online and pop culture. I feel like I'm
an astronaut and like the tether has been severed and
slowly just floating away, and my awareness is shrinking of
whatever is really happening online.

Speaker 4 (24:34):
I'm spotily aware, you know what I mean? It depends
on what it is. Very guilt king with the astronaut
tether to the like I'm that kind of astronaut with
pop culture.

Speaker 5 (24:48):
You go on, you go online for ten minutes and
they say you're a celebrity expert.

Speaker 4 (24:52):
Exactly, no experience required. Fuck science. Oh happy post Earth Day?

Speaker 1 (25:00):
Way? Oh yeah, yes did last night?

Speaker 3 (25:05):
I didn't what happened?

Speaker 5 (25:07):
I'm sorry. I was out in the park for Earth Day.
It was an incredible sunset. It was a very appropriate
Earthday sunset.

Speaker 3 (25:14):
Yeah you said what, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
It was a nice sunset yesterday. It was a nice
because I faced the sunsetting side. It was like it
was like, oh, this is very pretty. It was the
pink sky.

Speaker 4 (25:30):
I actually didn't realize it was Earth Day until about
eight thirty, but every.

Speaker 3 (25:36):
Day is Earth Today for me.

Speaker 4 (25:38):
I recycled trying to snitch on my building for not
having those brown compost bins.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
So oh, yeah, they gotta have him now.

Speaker 4 (25:45):
Oh let me tell you, I'm in my neighborly snitching mode.
Okay again, I called three one one when all of
the commercial vehicles that are parked next to our building.
I was because it was one particular Friday we couldn't
find parking and it was in that moment that I'd
had enough, so I called.

Speaker 5 (26:03):
You know, I think there's also a way you can
make money if you snitch on idle commercial vehicles because
they're not supposed to idle. You're supposed to turn it off.
It's like a hotline where if you report it, I
think you get like I don't know how much, but
apparently get money from the city.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
While they owe me. I don't.

Speaker 4 (26:22):
Yeah, I feel ways about obtaining a check from Eric
Adams for stitching.

Speaker 3 (26:29):
I'm like, no, I'm stitching for free.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
I'm stitching for the That's like a app snitch five
times received.

Speaker 3 (26:40):
Yeah, I hate that. I hate.

Speaker 4 (26:41):
I felt dirty when I had to go into into
First of all, the address is like one NYPD or
something like I had to go into the police building
years ago. Oh yeah, but like the NYPD portion one
Federal Plaza, I think is what the address is. Uh,
and I meet my spirit felt vexed. It felt vexed immediately.

(27:03):
I had to actually talk my employer at the time
out of the project they were attempting to do with
the NYPD.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
It makes you feel like you're in like a like
doctor robotic type of scenario. M h, Like it's real,
it's real creepy over. Yeah. I only had to go
there because I've I've had clients get arrested.

Speaker 4 (27:24):
You know how I was feeling watching those medieval people
and it was giving me like, you know, it was
bringing up KKK stuff. That's it just felt like that,
you know, it didn't feel right when I was in there.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
Oh, j just discovered the origins of racism through amazing.

Speaker 4 (27:39):
Race Because you did anybody put two or two together
that literally because.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
We were watching the Patriot Go subscribe to Patriot if
you guys haven't seen it, so like, so we're watching
they they're having like a Renaissance type of thing, like
they're jousting, and so Jada was like, this looks like
cake like and wizardry. Yeah, and it's in KKK. The

(28:07):
Klan is rooted in like medieval. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (28:10):
Well yeah, because right now with the folk dying, they
have all this picture, all these pictures coming out of
like all the cardinals or whoever, just in that they
have like these weird like black.

Speaker 4 (28:21):
Those are called hold on though, I'll tell you what
they're called.

Speaker 3 (28:24):
Wait a moment, I looked it up.

Speaker 4 (28:27):
Not you, Eric Conover, Okay, hold on, because I just
when we were, not you, hero, it's I can't look.

Speaker 3 (28:34):
On you for anything.

Speaker 4 (28:38):
Oh my god, because I just broke it down for
XD Oh. Here we go, Anti Defamation League.

Speaker 3 (28:44):
All right.

Speaker 4 (28:46):
So, the white robes tend to indicate a rank and
file member, unless all members wear such ropes. Green robes
indicate state leaders. They're called grand dragons pay attention to
the names in many clan groups, while black robes often
indicate nighthawks, a sort of clan security position. The leaders

(29:07):
or imperial wizards of different clan groups have chosen a
variety of different colors of robes to where, including the
red that kind of looks like the pope. So but
those are different sanctions and ranks and what their colors represent.
But notice how all those names lend to some sort
of medieval night hawks, wizards.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
Fast.

Speaker 5 (29:32):
But that makes sense because when they're you know, they're
trying to establish because they don't have a real it's
not like they go back hundreds of years. They're trying
to attach this iconography to things that have been around
to give themselves more like a foundation.

Speaker 4 (29:44):
They can't go back hundreds of years because their origins
are those toothless peasant British people who you know who
wore the little miss muffet hats and shit like that
and I have to sweep. Please give me some more grub, please,
Like those are their origins. They are the poor derelics
of Europe and then they ended up over here and
that's why the poor Floridians. Now, all right, go before

(30:11):
I get us canceled.

Speaker 1 (30:14):
Okay, we're gonna read these posts and we're gonna react
to them. If there's an update, we'll give react to them.
We'll update right after them. Okay, So am I the
asshole for calling my sister a jealous hag because she
got judgy over my husband making me an Easter basket.
My husband and I make Easter baskets for each other

(30:36):
each year, and this year he gave me. He gave
me mine early since I'll be traveling. It had the
usual goodies, dark chocolate, Bunny Starbust, jelly beans, and then
some swifty related stuff from Etsy, a fidget toy, and
to my total surprise, three full bottles of perfume for
my wish list, one hundred silent ways, Bianco Latte, and Oreana.

Speaker 12 (30:58):
Okay, it took me a while for me to get
this freaking bottle, and I get fragrances sent to me
all the way from Italy or France faster than how
long this came to me from New York City. But
I've had it for about a week and a half,
testing it here and there. I think it's even been
about two weeks and I finally have my thoughts on
Orianna from the House of.

Speaker 1 (31:18):
Parfums de Marley. That's a huge splurge. Does not in
this one though, That's a huge splurge, and I was
over the moon. I posted a pick to my insert
stories the next day. My sister came over. I left
the basket on the table and she grabbed a few
jelly beans and started poking around. Then she asked, did

(31:41):
your husband cheat or something? Is he trying to make
it up to you? I was stunned. I said, no,
of course not. Why would she say that? She replied,
why else would he go out all like this? Must
be nice to have money to blow when everyone else
is struggling. Must be nice to have a picture of
perfect marriage. I asked her what her problem was, and

(32:02):
she said, most women I know can't even get their
husbands to fill a Christmas stocking, and here you are
bragging and rubbing it in everyone's faces. She said she's
lucky if she even gets a birthday card. I told
her to stop blaming me because she chose to marry
a thoughtless man, that she had every opportunity to marry
someone kind and thoughtful, and she settled for someone who

(32:24):
doesn't buy her flowers or help her in the house.
I told her not to be a pissy, jealous hag
because she settled. That set her off. She argued backstag,
I was messed up for calling her a jealous hag,
and that there's nothing to be jealous of, and that
it's embarrassing that I'm acting like it's a rom com
into In twenty twenty four, she even said the fact

(32:46):
that I listened to Taylor Swift proves that was my
first thought. I told her to get out and double
down on her being a pissy, jealous hag. Now I'm
across the country for work, and I'm wondering if if
I went too far. You're just jealous. It's one of
those annoying comebacks ever, and I used it to my
own sister. She usually texts me throughout the day, but

(33:07):
I haven't heard a word since, so yeah, she's still pissed.

Speaker 3 (33:10):
Am I the asshole? You both are? You're both assholes.

Speaker 4 (33:16):
Your asshole for being a thirty five year old tailist
with fan and like that's insane.

Speaker 5 (33:24):
I feel like, I guess, I don't know. I don't Jade,
you're married. Do you give each other Easter baskets?

Speaker 4 (33:31):
We don't give each other Valentine's Day gifts. We don't
give each other.

Speaker 3 (33:36):
We barely give.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
Each other, Like.

Speaker 5 (33:39):
This doesn't seem like one of those big gifts, Like
I don't think of Easter as a couple gift giving holiday.
So that for me is already kind of weird that
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (33:48):
I didn't give happy.

Speaker 5 (33:50):
Can't hate on them liking each other.

Speaker 1 (33:52):
No, Yeah, here's the thing. It's like, whatever people do
in a relationship, that's it. That's what they like it,
they like of it. But here comes jealous because a witch.

Speaker 3 (34:05):
She was projecting her miserable life.

Speaker 5 (34:10):
Yeah exactly. Sounds like she's got a shitty husband.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
Yeah she does.

Speaker 1 (34:15):
Sound like, Yeah, don't project that ship on me. It's
not my You have the nerve to eat my jella beans,
give me. I hope they were the sour kind.

Speaker 4 (34:24):
Those are the only appropriate jelly beans, or the ones
where the flavors flavorings.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
Yes, I'm into nerd clusters. They are so delicious.

Speaker 8 (34:33):
Oh.

Speaker 5 (34:33):
I keep seeing those, and they're really tempting.

Speaker 4 (34:35):
I'm gonna be honest with you. I just just give
me nerds. I like regular nerds.

Speaker 1 (34:41):
I've said that to Frank.

Speaker 3 (34:42):
I've had the cluster. I have had. The clusters is.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
A cluster like if you chopped up a nerds rope.

Speaker 4 (34:49):
Yes, it's like a cluster of nerds on the rope.

Speaker 3 (34:53):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (34:54):
So like I think the dummy element throws me off
because I'm just happy with the small crunch.

Speaker 3 (35:01):
Now I want some nerds.

Speaker 5 (35:03):
You guys know about twin snakes. No, twin snakes. I
know harrow Boat fucked up company. But they have the
double gummy Bears where one gummy bear is sweet and

Oh, I love a balance. Wait, Haribos a fucked up company.

Speaker 5 (35:28):
Yeah, we can get into you guys can get into
that another episode.

Speaker 3 (35:32):
You know what we should do that. Actually, that's a good.
That's a good.

Speaker 4 (35:37):
Okay, fucked up.

Speaker 3 (35:42):

Speaker 1 (35:45):
Okay, you want to take the next one?

Speaker 13 (35:49):

Yes, all right?

Speaker 5 (35:52):
Oh no update from the jealousy.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
Oh yeah no there's yeah, no, there's no update.

Speaker 4 (35:57):
Okay they made up of but the one sister's miserable.

Speaker 1 (36:02):
I'm sure. And again, don't project your misery on other people,
like just.

Speaker 5 (36:10):
Just leave your man and find someone who will get
you an easter basket exactly.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (36:15):
Stud, A stud will get you an easter basket. A
Saint Patrick's Day basket, a Groundhog's Day basket, Earth Day basket,
like you'll be taken care of across. Yeah, you know
what I'm saying. Everything flagged. We're singing your praises, all right. Yes,

(36:39):
my twenty four year old female what oh, she's twenty
four and the boyfriend's thirty two. Okay, my boyfriend told
me he was a doctor. I walked in on him
behind the counter at Taco bell.

Speaker 1 (36:55):
Okay, these are themed. These are themed around things we've
spoken about on the show over the last eleven years.
So the one before that, you know, bitches be jealous
and projecting, and this one people be lying.

Speaker 3 (37:15):
Do not these generic as themes don't.

Speaker 1 (37:21):
Lie on Taco bells.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
Out of the story, but don't be got egregiously expensive
but and their Mexican pizza does not hit the same.
But anyway, all right, let me read this. I met
my boyfriend three months ago on a dating app. He
told me he was a doctor and that he did
his undergrad at an Ivy League school. Everything was going well.
He was super romantic, the sex was amazing, though he

(37:45):
wasn't big on spending money on me.

Speaker 3 (37:47):
Last night, I randomly.

Speaker 4 (37:48):
Walked into a Taco Bell and he was working there
behind the counter. We made eye contact. I walked up
placed in order without saying a word, then left and
went home to process what I just saw. I've tried
calling him today, but he won't answer. I'm in shock.
How could he light at me like that? Do men
do this often? I don't know if I should forgive
him and move forward or break these off. If I'm honest,

(38:10):
I probably would have even given him a chance if
i'd known he worked a Taco Bell.

Speaker 3 (38:14):
But I am in love with him. Now. What do
I do when I finally talk to him again?

Speaker 5 (38:21):
That part's tricky because she just admitted if he had
been honest, she wouldn't have fucked with him.

Speaker 4 (38:25):
She did, but now she loves him. Yeah, I'm curious
a win, right. You know what I would I would
test to see how long he worked there, because I
used to eat this baja chicken chalupa and it's no
longer on the menu, but if you know how to
make it. I know you've been working at Taco Bell
for a while, so I think I would just want
to kind of gauge to.

Speaker 3 (38:46):
See how knew this job was.

Speaker 4 (38:50):
Not how do you don't up order a Baja Blast
and like you all don't utter a single word to
one another outside of what your order.

Speaker 1 (38:57):
Is, right, I that's got it. There's no update for
this one either, But that's kinda be like, how do
you come back from that? You just don't like? This
is this is when ghosting is okay.

Speaker 5 (39:13):
Yeah, he shouldn't be wearing a doctor's coat at the
Taco Bell at least the white jacket or the white
whatever it's called, or some scrubs.

Speaker 3 (39:25):
Actually probably like.

Speaker 10 (39:28):
You know what I'm saying, he.

Speaker 14 (39:31):
Comes home and the scrubs all messed up, but it's
just Taco Bell, scope and sauce fire sauce.

Speaker 4 (39:45):
I mean, he couldn't even like he couldn't even say
he worked at Auto Zone or like I'm not even
being classiest and egregious. He could If you're gonna lie,
youn lie on bar with what you like, you can't lie, no.

Speaker 1 (39:56):
And if you're gonna lie, don't have a front facing job.
If you if you work stock at Taco Bell, then
maybe you could make a lie like that because you
don't have to be taking orders and ship.

Speaker 3 (40:08):
Also, where the fuck do you all live?

Speaker 1 (40:11):
Taco Bell is a very local thing, like you know
what I mean, Like I'm not going I'm not leaving
my house to go to San Diego to go to
Taco Bell. You know what I mean? There's one by
my house. So this means that he works near her,
in her neighborhood. So why again would you try to
be with somebody and you lie about your occupation.

Speaker 5 (40:36):
I feel like once he's once he lied to her,
which was from when they met. It was a matter
of time, and then I wonder if throughout their dating
she would ever drop hints like, you know, I love
Taco Bell. Why don't we go to Taco Bell? Do
you want to go to Taco Bell? And he would
have to deflect, Oh.

Speaker 4 (40:54):
Because he was there, because he worked there and his
coworkers would recognize him.

Speaker 1 (40:58):
Yeah, you know, it.

Speaker 3 (41:00):
Took me interested in ten years. It took us ten years.

Speaker 4 (41:03):
Actually, it took us thirteen years of being together before
we ate Taco Bell together.

Speaker 3 (41:08):
And that's only because I was.

Speaker 5 (41:11):
A thirteenth anniversary.

Speaker 4 (41:15):
No, but it wasn't far off, but it was like
two weeks before I'm gonna tell you why. The circumstances
we were in Maryland, Abe, you know, Maryland. Well, I
find that if you're not you, if you're in the
middle of the suburbs, you know, the food selections are minimal,

(41:37):
and they're of the chain variety for the most part.
So it was a particular hour and location and we
didn't have very many options. It was like Wendy's or
Taco Bell. And I was like, you know what I
haven't had in a long time a Mexican pizza. And
he's like, what's a Mexican pizza? So I explained it
to him and he was like, okay, bet let's get it.

(41:58):
And we ordered the Taco Bell and it was just
awful and expensive. I was like, when did Mexican? I
feel like I used to spend three four dollars on
Mexican pizza, not his whole menu. Between the two of us,
I think we spent thirty dollars at Taco Bell.

Speaker 1 (42:13):
Damn.

Speaker 5 (42:14):
Maybe they charge you more because you're coming from out
of town. And they could tell I.

Speaker 4 (42:17):
Know right, They were like, this bitch doesn't eat here regularly.
She's not one of our usuals like him. I mean,
she was classes and egregious, but he shouldn't have lied
that way. And you can't lie all the way up
like that. You cannot lie that far. The PUGULMB can't
swing that far in your lives from the truth.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
That's crazy exactly.

Speaker 5 (42:39):
Yeah, he was doing There was only a matter of time.
If she didn't find him, eventually it would come out
somehow or just like it would just come out that
he's not a doctor.

Speaker 4 (42:47):
Well, somebody would have been dying in their presence, and
then it would been with is there a doctor in
the house.

Speaker 3 (42:51):
It would have been one of those situations, and then.

Speaker 4 (42:54):
You know, it would all come out that he knows nothing,
and that person would have still die.

Speaker 5 (42:59):
For you were duck, drove anything anything at all.

Speaker 3 (43:02):
I do currently hold a PhD.

Speaker 4 (43:05):
In what I don't feel comfortable with disclosing because that
is not the issue here.

Speaker 3 (43:10):
Issue now is accusations.

Speaker 5 (43:13):
He would have read it, he would have had to
fake it and instead of like doing CPR, he would
have just been like folding the burrito on some of
the shts in the air.

Speaker 4 (43:25):
Can you imagine dying at the hands of somebody who
lied about being a doctor.

Speaker 5 (43:32):
Oh, my gosh, that's the case. It's just this episode,
but that's that's the case.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
Hey, path for you is jumping out is jumping out.

Speaker 5 (43:43):
I've been working at this corporation for too long.

Speaker 1 (43:48):
Let's take a break and we'll be back with more
Reddit stories.

Speaker 7 (43:52):
Edit Claude after these messages, will be right back.

Speaker 6 (44:00):
Hot sauce.

Speaker 15 (44:01):
That's what the man who spent five days trapped in
snow says kept him alive. Those little packets of taco
bell hot sauce. The man and his dog got stuck
outside Bend, Oregon, and those sauce packets, they sure came
in handing.

Speaker 1 (44:21):
And we're black. We're doing Reddit stories here with Jada.
Nextd Abe is in the building. Hello, we are celebrating
eleven years of.

Speaker 14 (44:35):
J x d H.

Speaker 3 (44:37):
Ready for the next one? Wait, yeah, all right.

Speaker 4 (44:43):
My boyfriend, a thirty four year old man mill has
a sexual history with my parents forty nine year old
forty seven year old female. Can our relationship survive this
posting form?

Speaker 3 (44:59):
It did not say how.

Speaker 4 (45:00):
Oh wait, hold on, yes, she's a twenty three boyfriend
is thirty four twenty three?

Speaker 3 (45:07):
Oh okay, the parents are forty nine and forty seven posting.

Speaker 1 (45:11):
There's a huge age gap here. A lot of times
with these men and women, these sister gendered head relationships
like there's like a seven to ten year.

Speaker 3 (45:22):
Gap because niggas are gross.

Speaker 5 (45:26):
Well, now that's true, but that's not the all non
hetero relationships are just people who are only a few
years of part in age.

Speaker 3 (45:37):
Hey, what are you fighting for right now?

Speaker 1 (45:40):
I don't know. I just don't think at twenty three
she need to be with nobody's thirty.

Speaker 5 (45:48):
Nothing that's true. I'm not, I'm not I'm not fighting
for that. I'm just also saying that, like that's not
just the head of thing.

Speaker 3 (45:54):
No, it's not, it's not.

Speaker 4 (45:55):
I find that anybody who is significantly older than their.

Speaker 3 (46:01):
A lot of people.

Speaker 4 (46:02):
Let me not say anybody, because I know that there
are caveats, but most people who are significantly older than
their significant other there's some sort of control issue, some
sort of weird grooming.

Speaker 5 (46:18):
That's also I feel like a lot of times like
it's a lack of not always, of course, but there's
like a I see I think of it, like when
I hear these stories where it's like this older guy
got with this young woman or mostly who doesn't who
seem sort of like unaware that like your partner isn't
doesn't have to be this like scummy person because you

(46:39):
haven't been long you've been around long enough to realize like.

Speaker 3 (46:42):
Yeah, such things.

Speaker 4 (46:43):
Yeah, unfortunately they don't know when they're being groomed a
lot of times. And then also sis hetero men oftentimes
have an issue a skewed perception of like what they
think they're supposed to be in a relationship with. So
I saw this video today and this man. So this girl,
this grown daughter caught her father on Tinder. He had

(47:07):
been married to her mother for twenty five years. Caught
him on Tender because she was scrolling and saw her
father which means her father's age range.

Speaker 1 (47:19):
Oh yeah, she.

Speaker 5 (47:20):
Was within that was this the one where they were
on family vacation and she's doing the updates? Oh I
started that like, oh there was one where this woman
who's a daughter on a family vacation, was like, I
saw my dad on Tender on family vacation.

Speaker 1 (47:35):
Just told mom.

Speaker 5 (47:36):
And it's like like when you go through the stories,
like each one gets worse and worse.

Speaker 3 (47:39):
Are they screaming? And her mother's like, okay, this is
a second time.

Speaker 4 (47:42):
Okay, I must have saw it all together, but yes,
that was I was like, like.

Speaker 5 (47:47):
Him and his son are like chilling by the pickup
truck that he's packed all his bags and yes, that's.

Speaker 2 (47:56):
I don't know what you're talking about.

Speaker 3 (48:03):
Yes that's what.

Speaker 4 (48:05):
And everybody was like, oh, the daughter's a messy bitch
for this, and I said, ah, not that. The daughter
is not a messy bitch for this, The father is
a messy bitch. Excuse me, all right, sorry, back to
this posting from a throwaway because my original post hit
the character. Okay, anyway, this is disgusting, but both my
parents have told me it's quote unquote not a big

(48:26):
deal since we're all adults. My boyfriend, Sam, a thirty
four year old male, and I, twenty three year old female,
have been together for over a year. Everything was going
fine until he came over to meet my parents for dinner.
About an hour into the evening, my mom pulled me
aside and told me that she and my dad already
knew Sam. I was confused, they had just introduced themselves.

(48:49):
That's when mom told me that ten years ago she
and my dad had a threesome with Sam, and apparently
it wasn't a one time thing.

Speaker 3 (48:57):
They were having a big loop of section.

Speaker 4 (49:01):
They had sex multiple times. Find out which color that is?
Xt you look up the colors. I didn't take it well.
I ran out of the house and called an uber
after I'd walked for enough to collect myself. I've been
home for a few hours now and Sam has called
me literally hundreds of times. I haven't picked up. I
didn't answer a call from my parents. They told me
to calm down and act like an adult. My mom

(49:23):
called me immature for being so upset and said if
I want to be in an adult relationship, I need
to deal with this appropriately. I do love Sam, I
really do, but I never imagine my parents will be
part of our history. Can we survive this or is
it just too much? There's no update.

Speaker 1 (49:45):
You can't survive that. It's good that it happened because
it's like years old.

Speaker 4 (49:55):
Hello, hello, Yeah, and clearly Sam.

Speaker 3 (49:58):
Has lived so oh clearly.

Speaker 1 (50:04):
Okay. So I'm at the Lufa Colors meeting right. So,
if you are unaware, a Lufa is what they do
down in Florida, is what they do in the villages.
It is a famous apartment complex in Florida.

Speaker 3 (50:17):
It's like a pink of blue where the old folks.

Speaker 1 (50:21):
You know, the old folks, get freaky sneaky, and they
put these lufahs in their cars on the rear view
thing imagiggers to let people know what time it is
that there are So if you put this in your
what do o people drive like a Buick saber?

Speaker 3 (50:40):
Oh yeah, rendezvous?

Speaker 1 (50:44):
Oh yes, yes, yes yes. If it's white, that means
their novices or their beginners. If it's purple, that means
they're voyeur and they like people who and people who
like to watch. So you know, Pink means a soft swap,

(51:11):
people who like to do it with others in the
in the room. So if you so, yeah, so couples
we together, but you could we could switch, but we
all in conference room being you know what I mean.
And then blue the lowest level of full swap, those

(51:32):
who could play well with others. So I'm assuming.

Speaker 3 (51:37):
You know, down or whatever, get down.

Speaker 1 (51:41):
To limit. Blue means yeah. In my head, blue means black, Okay.

Speaker 4 (51:49):
I was thinking like a pin situation. Yellow means you
like the pepe.

Speaker 1 (51:55):
Right, Yellow means well that's gay. Yellow mid level swat
for those who want to have fun but are still nervous.

Speaker 4 (52:06):
Oh so what so what's the difference between yellow and white?

Speaker 3 (52:09):
Because white means you a beginner.

Speaker 1 (52:13):
White means you know.

Speaker 5 (52:16):
Oh no, isn't it because white is regardless of like partner.
But then these other colors are about what kind of
relations you would be open to having with other people
alongside your partner.

Speaker 1 (52:28):
Yes, correct, white is white? Is I just came here
to dance for you all that? Oh? Okay, Yellow means.

Speaker 4 (52:34):
I want to do it, but I'm probably not going
to approach you.

Speaker 1 (52:37):
Yeah, like I could do the tricks with the grapes,
however it'll be that's what I'm glad.

Speaker 3 (52:47):
Okay, and the black ones again.

Speaker 1 (52:48):
And then there's both Yeah, those who say what the
hell and let it go all down. So that's that's
what this.

Speaker 5 (52:56):
Has to do with, like trading partners more than anything else.

Speaker 1 (52:59):
I think.

Speaker 5 (52:59):
I think this it's like, are you down? Like you
can make out with my wife? But that's it. Yes, Yes,
it seems like a lot of this has to do
with because it's a contained environment, being aware of just
how much the couple the other couples are open to
experimenting with each other and where their limits are as

(53:21):
far as their relationship.

Speaker 1 (53:23):
Yeah, oh well there's one more helpu Oh there's teal
Oh tropical bisexual. Okay for those who that wanted to
increase their dating chances.

Speaker 3 (53:35):
So all right, you guys, that's it.

Speaker 3 (53:42):
If you need to know more about the loof of
Lore of the.

Speaker 4 (53:47):
Villages, you can find some information here and online of course, because.

Speaker 1 (53:53):
I'm assuming everything was go up to anal which is black,
and then chills like we could do some gay shit too,
which I already thought we entered gay shit at like
level of yellow, but apparently not so well, like yellow
and a teal. Hmm, there could be. I don't know

(54:13):
that doesn't they don't say that here in under readit.

Speaker 4 (54:18):
What if you just moved there and you didn't know
any of this and you got yourself like a purple
and yellow just because you were a Lakers fan or something.

Speaker 1 (54:27):
That's true, but it's also why are you putting a
loofer in yours?

Speaker 4 (54:30):
Because everybody else they were like, oh, like, it's a
community thing, so let me put my loofs in.

Speaker 3 (54:35):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (54:38):
Let's take it and come back with what one or
two more?

Speaker 7 (54:45):
Yeah, hit a claude after these messages, will be right back.

Speaker 5 (54:55):
Yeah, it's like the gated communities where all the older
people live, and there they be like hooking up and
rereading my guest tds to each other.

Speaker 1 (55:02):
I wanted to do a reality show. They don't want to.
They don't want it there, but I performed there at
the villages. Yes, and they have.

Speaker 6 (55:08):
It's like.

Speaker 1 (55:17):
Ed, we're talking. No, we have not, We're back talking
with Abe read its stories.

Speaker 3 (55:27):
Well, there's some outtakes for you.

Speaker 1 (55:28):
We have some juicy ones. Yeah, we have. We have
some juicy ones. Do you want the really long one
or do you want me to take the really long one?

Speaker 4 (55:41):
Oh, it doesn't matter, it's up to you.

Speaker 1 (55:45):
Okay, I'll take the long Okay, I'll do it first
because that's sorry, and we could do that because the
second one is very fun. Hmm my, I'm thirty six sheep,
thirty six year old female husband forty one year old
male got a fire for harassing a coworker and won't

(56:06):
talk to me about it. This is a pretty long one,
so sit in. There are trigger warnings here. I was like,
but oh my god, but there is there is a
reason why I'm reading the story. This is quintessential Jada.

(56:27):
Next year, there is a trigger warning though. Yes, sexual harassment, stalking,
and threats. Now, we don't condone those things, but when
you read the story, when you hear the story, okay,
my channel. So, my husband Charlie and I have been

(56:48):
together for ten years Mary for six. We've had our
ups and downs, but we're in a good place. Couple
say that. That's where I go to.

Speaker 3 (57:00):
And it's him because if she cheated, they wouldn't be
together anymore.

Speaker 1 (57:03):
But consient, you vo, He's never done anything like this before,
so I'm completely shocked and at a loss. Charlie is
a computer programmer and was a senior engineer at his
now former company, where he'd worked for four years. He
never had any issues with coworkers, and we're both friendly
with a few of them, mostly other men and their wives.

(57:26):
Last Friday, he came home around eleven in the morning
and he told me he'd been fired. He was really
upset and agitated. He didn't want to push I didn't
want to push him at first, but he told me
he was fired for harassing a co worker. I was stunned.

Speaker 3 (57:41):
Do you mean you don't want to push it?

Speaker 1 (57:42):
Here's all I've managed, right, Here's what I managed to
get out of him. The coworker's name is Beth. She's
a junior engineer. He's never mentioned her before. He said,
and I quote, she's terrible at her job. Beth had
slept with another senior engineer that we know, Darren. We're

(58:03):
friendly with Darren. He wasn't involved in the situation and
wasn't fired. Company lawyers were present when Charlie was fired.
They told him Beth could have pressed charges, but chose
not to. There was something involving Beth's car. He won't
say what it was. His exact words were, there was
something with her car. He was thence escorted and off

(58:32):
the premises and wasn't allowed back in the building. He
has to arrange to pick up his things after business
hours through security. That's it. That's all I know. He
refuses to give any other details. He said that he
sent her some emails, but won't say what they said.
He's also not interested in seeing a lawyer. He insists

(58:53):
that everything is legal. I don't know if Beth's relationship
with Darren has anything to do with this, but the
fact that charge even mention it makes me suspicious that
it's connected. For what it's worth, Darren is a nice guy.
He's single, late twenties and about the same age as Beth.
My mind is spinning. Charlie has been withdrawn and depressed

(59:13):
all weekend. He barely talks to me. I work remotely,
so I've been home with him this whole time. He's
been playing video games don stop and went to bed
at six at night. The fact that he won't talk
to me and won't call a lawyer makes me think
this is really bad, and maybe everything they said is true.
Maybe it's not a misunderstanding or something small that got

(59:36):
blown out of proportion. He's never acted flirtatious towards other women.
He's never spoken poorly about the other women engineers he
works with. Nothing about this adds up to the person
I thought I married. I don't know what to do.
My instinct is to be supportive of my husband, but
what exactly would I be supporting. I don't want to

(59:57):
go behind his back and ask our mutual friends at
his job. That feels inappropriate. We know them from get
togethers in bars, but I wouldn't say I'm close with
any of them. Right now, I'm just trying to figure
out how to support someone who's clearly depressed, but won't
open up at all.

Speaker 5 (01:00:13):
She has a text Darren immediately.

Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
Right, yeah, right.

Speaker 3 (01:00:23):
Darien, quick questions.

Speaker 1 (01:00:28):
Oh, like because if it's wild for somebody to just
accept the feat after they got fired in that type
of you know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (01:00:38):
Like even it's wild for your spouse to be accused
of things like there's levels to this ship the first accusation,
I got questions, Nigga, you do not get to give
me these these passive ass like you cannot give me
these dismissive responses. I need details, I need I need

(01:00:59):
receipt I need to understand what's happening here?

Speaker 3 (01:01:02):
Are you a fucking creep? What we want?

Speaker 4 (01:01:20):
We're watching Mob Wives and Renee as as irritating as
she is, She told Carla that her man was being inappropriate.

Speaker 2 (01:01:32):
And Carla knew and said, nah, well it's he's just playing.
That's sick.

Speaker 3 (01:01:39):
You need to understand or you're just as complicit.

Speaker 1 (01:01:44):
Yeah, your thoughts.

Speaker 5 (01:01:46):
I feel like there's no way they can move forward
and have a healthy marriage if they don't figure this out,
or if he's not honest with her about it, if
it's not a big deal. Also, like he says he
should just tell her like he's not telling her anymore.
He's making it a bigger deal, even though it sounds
like it's already a pretty big deal. And to get
fired yeah and be like, eh, that's that's a pretty
big red flag. He's probably making good money if he's

(01:02:09):
a software engineer, right.

Speaker 1 (01:02:11):
Oh yeah, I'm not going down easy making six figures.

Speaker 3 (01:02:16):
You don't get a severance.

Speaker 5 (01:02:17):
Yeah, and unless you know, like it's not worth it,
I don't know, like, yeah, not getting a lawyer. It
feels very much like he fucked up and did some
weird ship. Yeah, it's trying to play cool.

Speaker 10 (01:02:31):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, So there's an update.

Speaker 3 (01:02:36):
Yes, we need one for this one. We have to do,
we do.

Speaker 1 (01:02:47):
My original thread was locked before I could respond to
any of the comments, but I was able to read
through them this morning. I really appreciate the advice let's
go get ready, because this is rough. I got up
at five thirty am to go to the gym before work,
and my husband was still away playing video games. I

(01:03:08):
presented him with a suggestion someone made. If he couldn't
talk to me face to face, he could at least
email me the details. I told him. It wasn't okay
to keep shutting me out because this affects me too.
His response, and I quote the PaperWorks in my car.
Go get it if you want to read it. I
asked if he could get it so we could go

(01:03:29):
through it together, and he snapped, you're gonna believe what
you want anyway. All of this is completely out of
character for our marriage. I've always considered myself pretty patient,
but this felt like a wall I couldn't get through.
We ended up going out to the car together. He
got in, he handed me the papers, and then just left.

(01:03:51):
For about two hours, I was panicked. I didn't know
where he was, if he was okay, or if he
was thinking of hurting himself. His mother texted me around
nine am to say he was at their house. She
asked what happened and if everything was okay. His parents
live about fifteen minutes away. Apparently he told her he
was going to stay there so the paperwork. According to

(01:04:16):
the documents that his company gave him, he sent several
multiple harassing emails to his coworker Beth from anonymous email accounts.
The emails were printed out and included in the file.
He did all of this while at work, and the
company had been monitoring his account for three months. The

(01:04:41):
emails were not sexual or romantic. They were cruel. They
said things like, you're terrible at your job. You only
had this position because you're a woman. You should quit
before you get fired. In the office hates you.

Speaker 3 (01:05:02):
Oh, your husband's a bully. He created.

Speaker 1 (01:05:06):
Fake users accounts for his company's product, which he works on,
and submitted bad reviews targeted for her. Also done well
longed it at work, he haudonymously emailed her boss claiming
she was sleeping with the senior engineer from another project, Aaron.
He left a gun catalog on the wheeled shield of

(01:05:28):
her call. I don't even know what that gesture means,
but I understand it was meant to be threatening. Inside
the catalog was a subscription card with his name and
address already filled in auto filtered by the company. She
also reported being harassed on Twitter for about the same
time period three months. They could prove one account belonged

(01:05:50):
to him, as he was locked into it at work,
and the account told her she should quit her shop.

Speaker 5 (01:05:56):
So the real ruse for this woman isn't that not
just that she was married to a creep? But she
was married to a dumb ass this whole time.

Speaker 3 (01:06:03):
It a bully and a misogynistead of.

Speaker 1 (01:06:08):
Like, oh my god, I laughed because I was like,
say no to coworkers, right, because I'm like, he is
he hates her so fucking much that he was like
this isn't even sexual or anything like fucking I hate you.
You suck at your job. That's funny to me for

(01:06:29):
him being a misogynist pig is awful.

Speaker 3 (01:06:33):
I don't know if that's I don't know what's worse.

Speaker 1 (01:06:39):
The funny thing is his audacity. He's just he's just like,
you know, this.

Speaker 5 (01:06:45):
Feels like yeah, very childlike behavior and just very like
I feel, I don't know, it feels very projecting too,
like what's the deal? Like this feels like it has
nothing to do with Beth.

Speaker 4 (01:07:00):
No, no, no, not at all. Either she wouldn't suck
his stick or or.

Speaker 1 (01:07:06):
I don't even think it was just hate her.

Speaker 4 (01:07:08):
Yeah, he might just be he might hate her, and
he might I don't know if if like it just
he took drag too far.

Speaker 3 (01:07:15):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:07:16):
If like, don't get me wrong, I have hated somebody
at work like I have hated this day, Like if
if if this was the purge and I had the opportunity,
oh best to motherfucking believe I would take the opportunity.

Speaker 3 (01:07:31):
At the knees.

Speaker 1 (01:07:32):
I just yeah, I just you know, we're not at that.
We're not that's not gonna happen. So you have to
like swallow that a little bit.

Speaker 5 (01:07:42):
Yeah, he totally fell into the trap of being mad
about it, and he sucked up his old life.

Speaker 4 (01:07:48):
Yeah, because now your now your wife has no respect
for you.

Speaker 3 (01:07:51):
I know I would lose full respect.

Speaker 4 (01:07:53):
For for a partner who did all of this, Like
hold on a nigga, like you could have been taking
me on dates and doing and you were her asking
a young lady like talib quality on Twitter.

Speaker 5 (01:08:05):
Well, we didn't get her an easter basket.

Speaker 3 (01:08:07):
I definitely didn't get not even a lottery card.

Speaker 4 (01:08:16):
Oh that is uh, that is disturbing to find out
about a partner. I wish this nigga would go when
I tell you he is doing his runs for the
summer and he's like stands right in front of my
fucking window with this song plague. I wish he was
like my uncle who played al Green from his ice
cream truck.

Speaker 3 (01:08:36):
But here we are, all.

Speaker 4 (01:08:38):
Right, we'll do one more and then we're going to
let abe go and be done. We'll do our final
I hope she divorces him.

Speaker 3 (01:08:47):
I really do.

Speaker 10 (01:08:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah you must.

Speaker 3 (01:08:53):
You'll never have her.

Speaker 5 (01:08:54):
Yeah, she can't be She can't be married to that
dude anymore because now that's like, now that she knows
that's on her now, like, can't be associated with that.

Speaker 3 (01:09:03):
No, Like, what would you do to me?

Speaker 1 (01:09:05):
Associated with loser behavior?

Speaker 3 (01:09:07):
Loser? You're an online bully.

Speaker 4 (01:09:13):
You create a multiple profile and a stupid one, and
create multiple profiles to harass somebody.

Speaker 1 (01:09:18):
And and don't get me wrong, I'm not above telling
somebody on the internet how fucking stupid they like, I'm
not above that. However, you had work dog like you're
not bright and I give it your coworker.

Speaker 4 (01:09:38):
Yeah, we fully believe it with you.

Speaker 3 (01:09:41):
It took drag. Yeah you took it too far.

Speaker 4 (01:09:47):
Yeah all right, our last one of the of the eve.
Am I the asshole for taking all the leftovers home
after a work party.

Speaker 3 (01:09:56):
I've been in my company for three years. I've been
at my company.

Speaker 4 (01:10:03):
For three years, and my work anniversary fell on the
same day my partner proposed to me and I got promoted.
I guess I expected at least a small celebration from
my co workers. Nothing fancy, but a little party or
a card maybe, but nothing just verbal congratulations. I cried
to my fiance about it, and he ended up reaching

(01:10:24):
out to one of my coworkers who's also going to
be reporting to me soon. She took it to my
manager and they pulled together a quick breakroom buffet. It
wasn't much veggie plattered chips, dips, sweets like cookies and brownies.

Speaker 1 (01:10:36):
You know.

Speaker 4 (01:10:36):
They had that ranch dip with the sour cream, some decorations,
but it meant a lot. At the end of the day,
I took the leftovers home and the containers they were
served on the next day, that same coworker texted asking
if I took the suite she made along with the platters.
I said yes, and she got really hostile. She says
she wanted to leave the food for those who couldn't attend,

(01:10:57):
and that she needed the serving platter back to make
a burg their cake for her niece. She claimed she
never said it was all for me. My fiance and
I both think she overreacted. It was my celebration. If
I wanted the leftovers, I had a right to them.
He does think I should apologize just to keep the peace,
but I don't see the point. If I didn't do
anything wrong. Update stop saying I forced my fiance to

(01:11:20):
contact my coworker.

Speaker 3 (01:11:22):
He did that on his own.

Speaker 4 (01:11:24):
Also, I only used the tubleware because I didn't have
anything else to carry the leftovers in. I always try
to celebrate my employees and make them feel valued. Maybe
I expected the same from my team and that was
a mistake.

Speaker 11 (01:11:35):
Okay. A lot of people get real comfortable at the
workplace and thinking like their coworkers is their bff, Like,
oh my god, this all right. I know there's occasions
where it's like, okay, you can make a friend at
work and stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (01:11:52):
You are the asshole.

Speaker 1 (01:11:55):
I have been in this situation before, where coworkers have
a weird entitlement thing about like what other coworkers should
be celebrated or doing things for them, Like I don't
ever want to be like the person. Like it may
seem like I'm an asshole at work and I believe
having a fun work environment, but like this is not

(01:12:19):
like no one's obligated to do those things for you, Like,
we're still at work, there's still a place of business.
We're lucky we could even do any of this shit
at all, you.

Speaker 14 (01:12:30):
Know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (01:12:31):
Like you can be disappointed and too and to give
that half of her tumbleware back, it's not. If you'll
take the food, fine, you know what I mean, And
food arguable, but give that later her tumblewear back.

Speaker 4 (01:12:46):
Also, how much of a loser are you that you've
got to take some cherry tomatoes, a fucking Lays ranch
sour cream dip, and some some ripple chips or whatever
these shits are called.

Speaker 1 (01:12:56):
And also I'm not taking home stuff from a company
pot luck because it's everything that I been.

Speaker 13 (01:13:04):
Touched exactly exactly. This is a lot that's weird. Also,
like I don't know this woman. This person seems to
have an interesting idea of yet what your work relationships
are supposed to be. Like this is like I cannot

(01:13:25):
relate at all. I'm glad that these two people that
seem to be awful found each other because they seem
to like they enjoy being like obnoxious with each other.
That's cool, But yeah, this is so weird to me
that the entitlement of expecting a party from your coworkers
because you got engaged not even married.

Speaker 3 (01:13:44):
And I don't even think wait.

Speaker 4 (01:13:46):
I don't even think it was about the I think
it was the work anniversary and the promotion that she
felt like they should regardless. Also, I have never put
my spouse up to contacting my coworkers for anything.

Speaker 5 (01:14:02):
Yeah, that's really weird. That's relationship.

Speaker 3 (01:14:06):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 4 (01:14:07):
I know what color hat this lady wears. I can
tell you that right now by the way she talks.

Speaker 1 (01:14:13):
And like I just I there's like people who we
talk about people chronically online. There are people who are
chronically at work who know they don't have any friends,
and they live and breathe through company culture yea, and
they think and think like this ship is okay and appropriate.
That's true.

Speaker 5 (01:14:34):
Why when they celebrated, that's not your family.

Speaker 4 (01:14:37):
It's not exactly, it's not even your chosen family, bitch.

Speaker 1 (01:14:41):
Like, uh, that's why I hate companies to be like,
you know, we're a family.

Speaker 3 (01:14:45):
No, the we're not. We're not. What we need to
be is a union solely corporate family.

Speaker 1 (01:14:57):
