Yeah, so we're excited exactly, and we want you all to be excited too, all right, Like first and foremost, before we even get to our reasonably shading moment of the week, I've got something that I want to say to you, Robin Dixon, and I just want to make sure we're on on a court. Okay. So Jamie Fox just said, just because they got a podcast, don't make them a philosopher. You got that right, No philosopher. But I was like,
is he coming for us? Do we philosophy? We do quite the opposite. We don't philosophy. But then I was thinking, well, Jamie, damn, I might want to be a philosopher. Which one is it? I mean, listen, I know I under say what he's saying, though, He's like, because I think people you can get a mic, you can get an audience, you can upload the episode, and you can you know, position yourself as some sort of expert or know it all, and we don't do that. No,
well we don't. We're kind of like, yeah, we're not perfect and we don't take life too seriously. And everyone come left, you know, laugh with us, laugh at yourself. Philosopher could be like somebody who's like on a soapbox and like that's their opinion, right, We kind of give our opinions. Um, we give our opinions, but it's not in a way of like this is how you should live. This is true, you know what I mean. This is life and how you should live and how you should be.
This is just like these are my little silly, crazy thoughts. Yes, I'm gonna be philosophying today, y'all. Okay, just to make sure that Jamie Fox, if he was thinking about talking about us, he's not talking about us. He's not talking about it. Okay, We're moving on. Tons of other podcasts that he's talking about are talking about it. Okay. So our reasonably shady moment of the week. Do you have one?
I do have one. I'd like to hear it. Okay, so, um, it's more so this is reflecting back to it last week. I think's last week. I'm getting I'm losing my track some episode we did in the past. Okay, do you know how many emails, d M s, text messages we received talking about your name is spelled wrong, your name is spelled wrong. Oh my gosh, y'all talk about your pet Peeves, but your name is spelled wrong. Someone, I
mean some so some people were an uproar. Some people were very you know, they were they were looking out for us, just looking out, Oh my gosh, your name is Other people were like, how are you going to be talking about your pet Peeve and your name is spelled wrong? Get it together, Like, okay, people, I appreciate the concern. Even my mother. My mother sent it to me and she's like, names misspelled, question mark and I'm like, just on purpose. It was done on purpose. Everyone. She's like, um,
you and Robin's name is spelled rock. I'm like, don't, okay, never mind. So so it was done on purpose. It was like tongue in cheek he he you know, we're talking about pet Peeves, how her names gets spelled wrong quite often, and we're like poking fun at ourselves. I mean, it was actually surprised to me because, um, apparently Taylor are you know, our lovely editor producer and Carly R d o oh, they thought that this was they thought funny, that this was comedy. I don't know if I thought
it was comedy. It was kind of cute, I guess, but I didn't know it's going to be backlash. Names felt wrong, backlash. She's just like people literally taking screenshots and emailing us. Thank you for taking the time to tell us that our name was felt wrong, but it was done on purpose. Yes, so y'all stop being shady, like calm down. Yes, okay, So my shady moment of the week the other day I went to go see Lizzo, Yes, which, by the way, it was a bad bit of clock.
It was bad bitch of clock and thick thirty. Okay, it was all of that. Um is the first time I've ever seen her. She is a performer. Really, she is talented. She's talented. She's a performer. She has stage presents. Not that that you know, a lot of people don't have stage presents. By the way, let's back up, Let's back up. Lotto opened the show. Who everybody says is my little sister. Okay, wait, can I tell you before hold your thoughts. Yeah, I've been meaning to tell you this.
I'm so glad you said this. So I had a family cookout on Labor Day and one of the little kids came in the house. I don't know, he's like sixth grade. He saw this poster, reasonably shady poster, and he says to me, is that Lotto? No way, no way? And I died laughing. I was like, I gotta tell you. So they gets your role. Thanks, I'm a lot of sixth grades. Sixth grade, okay, thanks, okay. So she Grace loves Lotto. By the way, I was with at the little concert with my girls. Um, Grace is and we
didn't know Lotto was the warm up person. Over the first act, Grace goes crazy. She's like screaming on She's going crazy. And I was like, I'm wonderful, I said Grace. I was like, a wonderful Lotto knows that everyone refers to me and her as looking alike. Grace was like, yeah, she knows, so you are mommy. I was like, I really don't think so, but okay, um she was like, yeah she said something about you, and I was like, yeah, I don't think she did that either, but okay whatever,
we love Lotto. She was amazing. She has come a long way. Oh yeah, she's come a long way. Very proud of Lotto and my little sister. Okay, so little comes out. I get to my shady moment. Let me get to my shady moment there. I know. The concert was at Capital one Arena, formerly known as Verizon Center, formerly known as Everything. Okay, so it's now Capital and the person that gave us the tickets gave me a parkas Okay. So the parking garage is called Alexis Garage.
I don't know why it's named that, but whatever's new. So I go in there, and you're familiar with this place because I used to play there, right, So I go down into the garage was just like a pit. Like I I told myself, do not park in this garage, but I went down there anyway. So I go down there.
I had to go all the way to because they were like leave me your keys, No, sir, not leave you my keys because I know that's a trick because like they'll put you twelve cars back and when you want to leave, they gotta move about eighteen cars and get your car. So they were like, okay, go down to P two and I said fine. I drove down to P two and um, the guys down there they would like, leave your keys. I said, sirs, that's not what I'm doing because I do not want to be
stuck here all night. I'm leaving before the crowd leaders because I know when I need to go home right. So, um, it was an argument. It was a full fledged argument with the parking attendance. They were like leave your kids, ma'm I said, I'm not leaving the keys. Where do I park? And I don't have to leave keys. They were like you you have to let us park it know the hell I don't. I straight It was a straight up argument, and because my kids were with me,
it didn't get the cussing. But I wanted to cuss so bad because how are you gonna tell me? So I see a spot robbing and I roll up into the spot and it was like, oh no, you gotta you gotta you can't back in. You gotta front end or no, you gotta back in. You can't pull front end, dude. All I had to do is park the damn car, Like you're not gonna tell me which way to park. So it was a brawl. It was a screen fast and at the end of the day, I want you. Yes, I got my way and I did what I knew,
which was we're leaving early, so I don't need this foolishness. Okay, So anyway, that's my shady moment. The parking attendants down on P two at de Lexus Garage leave me alone. It's as I hate that. Yes, next time uber, Well, I was gonna uber, but then I was like, oh, I have to oh. And then by the way, I was like, yeah, I don't tie a v I P because I'm a v I P, but because my parking pass said v I P. Yes, So like, where am I really supposed to go? So usually so we used
to park um the Wizards game. So it's like you come down the hill and then you immediately make a left into the cage. I was not in the cage I thought I was supposed to go into. I should have gone into the cage. Yeah, could you I wonder if you could have gone with the v P. Well, they didn't tell me where to go. There was no It was just like comb a free for all, and I probably should have been in the cage. In the cage sounds that doesn't sound VPP to the people, but
it is, yes, yes, yes, right, oh yes. Anyway, getting to the Lizzo concert, Lizzle is freaking amazing. Really. The reason why I want to talk about it is because two things. One, we we've talked about the show she had when she was finding her backup place, the Big Girls. So I'm like, once The Big Girls came out, I was like so excited because I saw this show and I'm like looking for the ones that I remembered from
the show. So that was like very exciting. The Big Girl's got so much love because that that whole thing was Emmy one and one and Emmy Yeah. So that was also the girls on the show or in her show. Yes, yes. And in the middle of the show, she was like, guys, I got a call from the Library Congress and I took them up on them calling me so earlier that day, Lizzo w Library concret doesn't you tell me? In the middle of the shower phone rang and she answered it, Okay,
I'm gonna stay with me. Now did you get coffee today? Are you with me? Okay? Anyway, so my brain was like, I've never seen that before. Now. She went to the Library Congress before the showy chatted with them and apparently there was a crystal flute. Yes, yes, you hear about the crystal I heard about the crystal Did she play it? The crystal flute is was made in eight dreds, right, so this is the it's old, it's it belongs to the Library Congress. They brought it out during the show
and it was escorted by four people. It was like two people holding the box to put security guards behind them like they were not playing the the the crystal flute came in like an armored car. Okay, so it comes out. They give it to her and she's like with me, guys, bear with me. So she tells us a story about how it's like it was created and I mean it was made in the eighteenth century and nobody has ever played this. And I'm like, how do
you know nobody's ever played this? Like that's weird, Like somebody has played this, right, Yeah, they wuldn't just make it and not use it. She played that. She played that thing they've let her play for approximately seventeen seconds and then she gave it back and then how did it sound? It was, Oh, it sounded beautiful. She played her flu during the show what she calls Sho Sasha flu after Sasha. Very cute and then and the and the flue. Her flu comes up from the floor like
it comes up, it's it's presented um. But this other crystal flute she played for a literally like fifteen seconds, and then she gave it back and then they took it away. But really, yeah, like Lizzo is the bomb? Did she have to like take her lipstick off and stuff? I would think they would be like she would have to put gloves on them take her stick off? Like I don't think so. But this was not a Kim Kardashian Marilyn Monroe dress moment like in which Kim ruined
the dress. Lizzo did not ruin the flu. She did not cool. That's exciting. I felt like I was a part of history by saying it, and my kids were all down for But yes, it's stick thirty and it's bad. Bit alerta. Yes, alright, now, so we love you. Okay, Now, speaking of Lizzo and I just mentioned Kim, we got to talk about the guy that I said we were never talking about again, okay, only because he's made me angry. He did so, Like, I don't really get mad this.
The guy that we're talking about is Kanye. I don't really get mad at Kanye when he goes on rants, and I don't get even I don't even get mad at Kanye when he wears socks and flip flops. I don't even get mad at him about that with Ryan Stones on with Ryan Stones, I don't even get mad at maybe they were diamonds because I don't know who knows it was. It was gregious though it was wrong. Um, but Kanye publicly said he does not read books. No, he didn't say he does not read a book. Didn't
say he's never read a book. Yes, So let's like break that all the way down, which I'm gonna say he's lying. First of all, First of all, you're lying. Second of all, why would you say that? That's not even cool or funny to say? No, Donda, your mother was rolling over in her grave. She was an educator. His mother. I think she was an English teacher, so like and wait a minute, and he opened a school in California and Los Angeles whatever, No in Chicago, No, no,
it's in California. I don't know where the school is. But he's open to school. He opened a school called Donda A Cadam. Yes, what, you're full of books? So well do we know? Maybe they're not, maybe they're not. Who knows, Kanye, that was not cut. It was you can't be First of all, you can't be the leader of a school and talk about you've never read a book and you don't read. Second of all, like what
adults like that? You have four children? So sorry, there you're gonna like what kind of example are you setting? And I believe, like, for instance, you can tell well and I don't people and you're lying. You don't go twelve years of grade school and not read a book. I'm sorry. You probably read Romeo and Juliet in high school. Probably maybe Huckleberry Finn like right, I thought you had a whole gospel album. Didn't you read the Bible at some point in time? Did you read the Bible Corinthians
one through ten? Something? Stop it and and don't because there's so many people that hang on his every word, like, don't do that kind of such a bad influence. Yes, I'm at the point in my life where I'm like, I've want to read more books, you know what I mean, because I want to like learn more, I want to be more well rounded. I want to just you know, maybe even just check you know, check out from social
media and TV and all that type of stuff. Like that's what he should be saying, That's what he should be saying, but he didn't because his name is Kanye. But we're gonna, we're gonna move on. And he thinks he's a know it all, but he realized that he's not because his deals with you know whatever, Gap and Adidas they're all falling apart. And Swaye told him, yep, Swaye told him do it yourself. Yes, And he was like, shut up, Swaye, what you talk about, sway You don't
know what you're saying, sway Right, what deals do you have? Swaye? Like, and now and he's probably still like talking or something, yeah, you know, but like still, how many years later he's like, yes, Way you were right. Hello. Swaye was right. I should have just done it myself. Sway should told him years ago, don't wear socks and flip flops. Maybe we wouldn't have seen. Well, maybe Sway is the one that needs sell him everything, and he'll listen this way because he realized weight new
little something. Yes, yes he did. You know. I mean if Kanye's businesses, business deals with the Gap and Adidas um failed or you know, weren't a success in his eyes, I'm sure they were a learning experience for him. So I'm sure, yeah he can walk away with that, with the learning experience. And again, Kanye, do it yourself right, and and you got the money for it, right, so do it yourself. Okay. So I was coming across I was going through that social media. I was scrolling, scrolling,
came across Drake. There was a post okay, do you follow him? I do not follow Drakes. This was posted on actually the shade wrong, okay, and it is Drake's uh d I mean social and Drake put out a post that says you should slide through and get your back Broke, Drake. He posted that. Drake posted that with the picture of him. Let me see, maybe they put the picture of him up. But Champagne Poppy is that him? That's sound right? You you're not break backing worthy, Like
that's not you, sir, Like you're not breaking anyway? What back have you breathed? No, he's not like this is an embarrassment, but those are like it's he So he's like one of those men that like brags about himself clearly, like I don't know that's that's but anytime a man does this, we all know, Yeah, you're not working. That is so cringe. Why don't he do that? Yeah, and you know I'm not necessarious, but I'm sure. But do you wonder how many d ms did he receive or
I'm sure I'm sure are full? How many people are like yes, yes, but doesn't be They have a song that says, it's not your face, is your money your money? Yeah, she's talking about jay Z. That's stop she is. She hasn't talking about her husband, that's what she said. What it's all right? I think she's okay. I think she's poking fun at that because that's always been the thing, like we beyont with him, not because his face, because
because it's because it's money. Oh okay, or like anyone that would have been with jay Z, like, you're not. We're going to move on since we love Jay. We love Jay, but he knows that he's not the most handsome man in the world. He knows that. Okay, I'm gonna move on because I have decided to open up a very large savings account for my Beyonce. Do you think I don't think okay? Do we think it's necessary. I've never been to a Beyonce councert and been like,
oh my god, these tickets are too expensive. Okay, but do we think the tickets are going to be okay? So let's let's just let the folks know Beyonce. It's rumored summer of she's going to be going on tour. Yeah, what day you want to go? So well, we have to get the tour dates. Yeah, because I'm going. Okay, Robin's not going. I am. Because you're a Beyonce hater, I'm not. I said I wasn't going at first, but now I'm going. You're you have every right to change
your mind because I know what's going to happen. What's going to happen if I say if I don't go, if I don't get a ticket, and then it's like the week of the concert, I'm going to be like, oh my god, I want I'm gonna be We're calling every hook up by note for a Beyonce. Yeah, okay, and there will be no hook ups, So so that means robbing. We're going to get our tickets as soon as they drop, okay. Are you okay with that? And the tickets might be very expensive? Are you okay with that?
What's the limit? There is no limit again, did you? I started this by saying I'm opening up a savings account, but for my bet tickets. Okay, So you're willing to so the money you weren't willing to spend for Adele you are willing to spend for Yes, Beyonce. It's just like, of course you're gonna spend the money, although I don't
think they'll cost that much. You think they're going to be cheaper than the day Adele's was upwards, Well, I believe that Beyonce will Probably the reason why it's gonna be in the summer it is because Beyonce wants to be in the stadiums of course, So no, the tickets are not going to be because it's okay, got you got, you got you? Okay, we need prime seats, Robin, so our seats probably going to be the most expensive in the stadium. Okay, okay, just get you, just get your
coins together. You got the coins? Okay? Do I have to convince you? And then we have to buy our tickets for the other concert, the Rihanna concert the super Bowl. You mean we're just going for the concert. We're just
going for the halftime show. They should actually super Bowl should actually do that, right, They should actually just sell tickets for the halftime that is, yes, put people in a certain section on the floor, on the what's it called the floor, what's it called the field field, and kicked them out after Okay, wait, where is the super Bowl this year? Okay, do we know that it's Arizona? Arizona? Yes, I've first. Have you ever been to a super Bowl? Yes, you have? I want to go the one in Miami.
It's a lot, it's a lot going on. But alright, so Rihanna. There was an announcement, Yes, Rihanna is going to be the halftime performer at the super Bowl, which I think is amazing. It's very exciting. Yes, but I have like questions, I have so many questions and this this Okay, go ahead, what's the question? First of all, she has not performed in a very long time, and I've have you ever seen it perform? I have not, I have. She's not a performer, right, Like I've never been, Um,
I've never wanted to see her perform. I've never gone. Jesus Christ, Robin is a hard, hard one over. Yeah. I mean I was never like, like, I like her music, but I was never a fan. Like I was never like, oh I gotta go to the Rihanna show, you know what I mean? So um, but I believe you she's not a performer. She's not like if we were to compare her, not that we're going to compare it to Beyonce, but if you did compare to Beyonce, it's like Beyonce
is a performer period. Rihanna is. She's not that, but she's great. I mean, we love Rihanna. So that leads me to believe jay Z is going to be there performing with her. Drake is going to be there performing with her like she is going to pull out like every single person she's ever done a collap with. So do we do we bring out a SAP just because that's your baby, daddy. Because a SAP you can stay home.
I don't I don't even know. Okay, for the record, I cannot tell the difference between ASAP, Racky Rocky and Travis Scott. I don't know they're between their music. I don't know who is who. I did see the meme or the video of of ASAP recently. I think I posted my story ASAP Rocky um crowd surfing at a concert and he looked like he was scared. He was terrified, get me up out of here, like that's the only thing I know. But I don't know that. I don't know their music, Like I don't know whose song is.
You're gonna know what at the super Bowl, Okay, because I'm sure she's gonna bring out him just to give him some love. Okay whatever, that's okay. But but jay Z and Drake better come out. I don't think Jay's coming out. Why not? Because he didn't come out? Did he come out for bed? Was he was he? But remember he was like on his like um his protests kind of of the NFL. Now he runs it. But now al right, they're doing so so Rihanna had the same standpoint years ago where she was like, I'll never
perform for the Super Bowl. She said that because of how they were treating Colin Kaepernick. Well what happened, I don't know, But that's why I think jay Z might have, you know, because now he's running all that, he might be like, you know what, it's time for me to come out, you think, yes, okay, all right, so he might come. Do you think I think Umbrella that she got to do the Umbrella Ella Ella run this world? Okay, Kanye, Okay, we can bring out a little you know, like Carell.
Yeah with the Yeah. Yeah, she's from what I understand, she is there. She has a list of fifty artists she's going through to decide, like who's coming, who's not fifty fifth? That's what they said. That's what the people say in the streets. I don't know what's the what's the ron pond? The replay? Sean she kinta? Maybe bring that dude out? What's his name, Sean Paul? Oh? Sean? Is that that? Yeah? Okay? Yeah, that's like her first song. That's the song that put her on the map. What
what song was on the replay? I thought Umbrella was the first song, Oh my God, what okay? Guys? Umbrella was the song that took her like to another level, so she cut her hair another level. Pond the replay was like her first song that we like when that was like mainstream where she she looked like a little girl. I don't have a pond replay the d d D okay and a dance woman and Emma, okay, don't. I don't know. I have no idea. What about now? Are
you bringing out like a Cardi B? Are you bringing out You're only bring out people you've done music, you've done songs with. Okay, I don't unders like I don't know. I don't even know what the relation would be between her and Cardi B. Have they done a song together? No? They have not. But okay, well, last time Rihanna had a song Cardi B didn't exist. Cardi B? What's still on? Love and hip hop? Talk about can you play my
right thing? And then so I'm like a little worried about like what this show I want to look like it's gonna be great. Okay, it's gonna be great. But you said you've seen her in concern and she's not great? Well because but she doesn't necessarily have to be. This is not a drop. It like a side dance performance. It's it's not that it's very excited because we haven't seen it. And she shouldn't even attempt to dance. She should just like walk around looking like a bad bit. Yes,
because that's a matter of fact, she should. Okay, this is what if it were me, this is what I would do. I'll put a QR code for all the fenty beauty and then after that's over, another q QR code for the savage. Okay, I get your lodger um and then I would sing a song or two them be out like yeah, she's she's got to promote her other things. By the way, do you know her real name is Robin? Why? You guys are twins? Were? And she has like don't you light us? Yeah? She has
led up you guys are twins? Okay, I want to talk about this new Pepsi. Okay, So Pepsi's coming out with a soda that tastes like schmores and they're only allowing two thousand of their fans to try it. Right, I don't know four people that want to drink a Shmores pepsi. PEPs That sounds ridiculous. I need more information. What do they mean by that? And we're exactly that then, because this is a new limited edition collection, two thousand fans are going to try the schmoresh pepsi. But I
don't even know what mean. So you're exactly So you're telling me it's going to have Graham cracker, Yeah, marshmallow, marshmallow, chocolate and chocolate and pepsi and it's gonna be a it's gonna be carbonated. Yes, that that that? So? Wait, does it have the original pepsi in it too? That's a good question. That's a good question. But okay, but this this made me think of like things that like first Oreo, every oh but the new one it's too much. So but I buy them all. If I see one
that I haven't tried before it's new, I buy it. Okay, So tell me this, which do you like any of those special players because I'm I'm like, no, Just give me my plain old double stuff Oreo and call it a day. They had a crimbal a one. I like that. They had a triple decker. They had a triple decker. It was like decker. It was like it was like the regular cream, and then it was like cookie doll cream, and then it was like a chocolate. Oh that was that was serious. Then they have why do I know?
I'm like scared. The thing is it's like it's like you want to taste it, but I don't want to buy the whole thing, because like what if I don't like it, buy the whole thing. I taste to and throw that away, Okay, because in sometimes I feel like they're like too sweet, you know what I mean. So there's a Neapolitan one which is like strawberry chocolate vanilla. Um. That one was really good. Yes, um, yeah, it doesn't end. Sorry. What did I see recently? Oh? No, Lady Gaga had one.
I think I think hers was like red velvet maybe. See. I don't trust red velvet anything unless it's like what do you mean red velvet is? Like I don't I don't trust red velvet trustworthy. No no, No. I like red velvet cake, yeah right, from from someone who can really bake, you know, but I don't want a red velvet ice cream. I don't want a red velvet oreo. I don't want a red velvet pudding like it's not gonna taste, but it's supposed to taste. Okay, alright, you
know what I mean? Fair Enough Sprinkles has the best red velvet cupcake for the record. They do you think? Okay? Yeah, I just feel like Oreo stop it. They're not going to stop. This has been This has been going on for like ages where it's like every day you go into the market and it's a different Oreo flavor. So so yeah, so my I love double stuff. And then I also like a thin meant one. Oh I like that the meant one, but it has to be the thin.
But this has caused other companies to like think that this is okay, like us and gone not lets ladies, y'all and gone crazy. There's like chili potato chips, like pickle pickle. There's like macaroni and cheese. How do you make a macaroni and cheese potato dug and bun chip? Like, No, I do like the crab chips though, oh yes, crab chips are great. The obe ones are like outside of that, no, pa yes, And then like bacon chips stop it, I mean, And then consumers people like, what do we putting in
our bodies? Nastiness. Preservatives. I mean, you're literally gonna drink a soda in the flavor of s'mores. Like, just think about this. Yes, what preservatives and artificial coloring and all that that nonsense. How much sugar, isn't it? Yes, I mean PEPSI won't be advertising with us anytimes. No, they were not. Sorry Pepsi, Okay, but we gotta talk about the scandal, yes, which one MANI okay, No, the scandal of the black Twitter scandal, which was the knee alone.
And I never say her boyfriend's name, rightfriend. His name is Emay Udoka. Emay. He's Nigerian. He um actually like a man, nice looking man. One actually played with him in Portland, so they were teammates Um Portland Traiblazer just I think it was like just one season that they
played together. So when the ESPN I I subscribe to like ESPN alerts, and it popped up on my phone email Udoka facing suspension for an affair with a Celtic stafford, and my first thought was, oh shit, this is gonna be all over social media, not because anybody cares about email and the Boston Celtics, but because of who his fiance is Nia Long right? Yes? Because I mean if this was some other head basketball coach, like whatever, this is not getting well. If it was another head basketball
coach this, he would not be suspended, I believe. Yeah. And that's I mean, that's a whole another case, a whole another Yes, it's it's a lot to try to figure out what they Okay, so I said it. I said, oh my gosh, this is gonna be all over the place just because people are going to be like, oh my god, how dare you cheat on Nia Long? Because Black America loves Nia Long like she's so beautiful, she's so timeless, she's old, classic and long. Behold. I opened up my phone and it was just, I mean, you
couldn't get away from it. It was cheat. I mean, hey, a man with a dick, y'all. Okay, I'm just gonna tell you this. I don't care who you're married to, who you right, who you're with. He is a man, and I'll tell you like, okay, So one person I really respect their comments. Shock He someone asked him to comment on that, and Shock was like, you know what, I can't even comment on this because I was a serial cheater when I played in the NBA, so I'm
not even I have no room to talk. But that's because he just knows in you know, number one, he's a man, but number two in that industry, and I've said this multiple times, it is quite rampant. So it doesn't matter who it is, who they're dating, who they're married to, it happens. But we were thinking maybe he was because he's now a coach and he you know, it's not necessarily a player and he Lord, we just thought he grew up. So you know, it's so funny.
There are times when, like you know, there's certain teammates where you'll look at them or certain players and you're like, hmmm, he doesn't look like one of them, Like you know, you you look at like, oh, Grant Hill. No, Grand Hill is not out there doing crazy ship or you know what you know, I don't. I don't know, not that I know, but like, okay, number one, I don't put anything past anyone. No, but there may be like different degrees, like you know how much people are doing.
And Grant Hill was one where I was like, I just you look at him and you don't put him in the same whatever realm with the other guys um and for me, like Emay was one of them, like because he was very like he was just very kind of quiet. He seemed, you know, I don't know, real to himself. And so I never looked at Emay and thought, oh he when they on the road, he out there doing his thing. Do you know what I mean for knee along? You know, like I just never put him
in that box with those guys. But I mean, it's just I don't know, Okay. Then they said this, this particular woman who she agreed to this, this is not like you know, it's a consensual affair with the Celtics staffer. She was she was doing the travel for Nia. That's where it gets like girl, a little girl. Okay. And then okay, My theory is the reason two things. One, the reason why this all came out and they suspended
him is because obviously somebody wants his job. Okay, So whoever they filled that job with, we need to be looking at them side I. And number two, she had she this girl in question was married or is married, but there's somebody else had to find office that she's having sex with. This is allegedly, this is my thought, this is your theory and that man found out and got mad and decided to expose it. M I don't I don't think that's true. I don't think I know
your theory. But but I'm saying, so apparently this issue, okay, um, because they're all doing it. They're all doing it, right. So did you see Matt Barnes comments. Well, first he Matt reject Matt took his comments back exactly and you heard why no why So Matt initially was like, you know,
how why are they suspending him? Like you know, this happens, like you know, the guys they you know, they cheat on the road, they cheat whatever, you know, they cheat with people within the organization because they're so close and blah blah blah blah. This say nothing new, blah blah blah. Let's just let's just say Matt Barns was he did play in the league. He has a podcast now on
Black Effect. Yeah. Okay, okay, okay, go ahead. Um So anyway, so Matt Barns playing in the league, so he knows like the behind the scenes and and honestly, when when I told one, he may but he may, you know, getting suspended for this. He's like like like that happens all the time. But that's the response of the guy eyes, like especially the guys in like in the industry on the inside that no, like, yeah, I ain't surprised this happens,
right exactly. I mean I can tell you that I know if people, you know, when in organizations that want played in like where uh you know, people on the staff were messing with each other or whatever player you know what I mean, It just happens all the time. So Matt Barnes then came and retracted his statement where he was upset about them suspending it because he said, I talked to somebody on the inside and it's a hundred times deeper than what I imagined. Oh why what happened?
I don't know? So he give me the team, right, I don't know. So, I mean he was just like, it's just way worse. Then then you can imagine it's it's really deep, it's really messy. It's a hundred times is this woman pregnant? Well what could be? I don't know, what could be deeper? Don't know. And he was like, you know, he's like I'm not going to speak and it's not my place to to speak on it on what I know, but I'm sure it'll come out and
do time so right. And so even the fact that like this staffer was, um, you know I know that position, that person that's the one like Okay, when you join a team, they there's there's usually a female that is like, okay, I'm going to help. This is you know, the area you should live in and there are some real estate age and she should like that's like the I can't remember their titles, like some concierge or whatever, Like the concierge person that's like, okay, you want to private personal
chef here, here's some numbers here. You know. They're always like hooking you up with like um, you know, just getting you acclimated to the team and stuff. So they are kind of close to not only the player or the coach, but also their spouse or or girlfriend or partner. Like they're dealing with the wives a lot too, because we're the ones that's like, you know, we're finding the house while the guys are at practice, we're over here,
you know, all that type of stuff. So I don't know that it's just because it was her, um, and she's so close to you know, dealing with the wives and stuff. That is what's making it messy. But I can't. I feel like it has to be something more like that's I'm telling you she is also dating someone. Okay,
who who would be? But the Celtics launching like they literally this the other part then launch an investigation for what so so apparently the Celtics heard about this like two months ago, right, but this news didn't come out until last week, right, um, which, by the way, I believe that they put it out and they didn't need to. Yeah, but how do you explain your coaches suspended for the year.
You can come up with anything, like you can come up with anything to say when Housewives are fired, they come up with all kinds of reasons why they're not coming back to the show, and Bravo doesn't say a word. They just allow them to run with the nonsen that's I mean, that's different, but like, and they have to give a reason why the coach is on a pretty technically a leave of absence for the entire he's on
the leave of absence medical issues. The media that's out they're going could he could say, what do you call it? Personal matters? Personal? The media is gonna dig, dig, dig dig. They're not gonna let up. They're not like in that town, the Celtics media. They're going to get to the bottom of it. Okay, I mean, can I just say I was just never mind, I was gonna say something that never mind. Okay, I just edited myself and y'all should say thank you, Jill. I never edit myself. Thank you.
I'm talking about the world, just like thank you. Okay. Anyway, So, so what was I saying? I was saying, oh so, yeah, So they knew about this two months ago, and they launched a and then they hired a lawyer to investigate, to really yes, to investigate the whole situation. And then that's why last week, at the conclusion of the investigation, this was the recommended, you know, of course of action
to suspend him. Here I'm calling I'm calling Matt. But in that time frame to apparently two weeks ago, Nia Long has been in communication with that woman to say what to mo to like help her help them find a house, to arrange her travel and help her find out. Let me tell you something. I'm calling Mat boss. What I'm calling I know, I was like one, So of course I was like one. You heard what Thor said. I'm like, okay, so who can you call? Right? Wan? Bit us t wan and don'ty y'all get the like
you know you still know somebody. It's been a while, but you okay, alright, so we have we now want to uh start a segment. We're gonna this is gonna be a reoccurring segment. Rob We look, y'all, we have new reaccurring segments. Yes, I know, okay, So here it is, and it's called do you prefer that's the name of the segment? Do you prefer? Yes? Okay? For instance, we'll start off with the first. This is a softball. Do
you prefer Jimmy Kimmel or Fallon? You probably don't even have an answer to that because you're in bed by eight o'clock exactly. I watched neither, So I prefer Jimmy Kimmel. Okay, why anytime? Right here? Jimmy Fallon? Come on. It's like nails on a chalkboard and I have to like, I'm like, like, I run for the remote control and I have to turn like I don't know what it is, but if I just love Jimmy Kimmel's um dry humor, Like I just think he's so funny, but not in a try
hard way. I feel like Jimmy Fallon is a try hard Okay, So I'm sorry, NBC. So you know what I'm saying, Like I feel like like and you know, some people might like Fallon's you know, the way that he does his show, like Jimmy Kimmel was just more like dry to the point but like funny. Um, okay, so your Kimmel like, okay, all right, so we're gonna we're gonna bring back NBC into this Today Show or Good Morning America. I'm a Today Show. You're Today Show. Yes,
I'm a Today Show girl. Now you know, I might switch over to the Morning America just because you know, Mr straight Hand is there. You know, I like like a little straight hand every now and again. But yeah, I'm Today's Show. So I've I want to say, I've been a flip flopper. So like years ago, I was
like hardcore Today's Show. And honestly, I think when them like this is like years ago, like I don't know why, Like once Meredith Viera was gone, I kind of stopped watching and then um, definitely when Matt Loward was gone, I can't stop stopped watching, so so I went hardcore good Morning America. Okay, so now I love Good Morning America. And but good Morning America here goes off at nine am. Okay, And and then Nails on the Chalkboard come on again with Hoda and at nine am The Nit on ABC.
I'm just not going to be invited to a lot of these shows. Nails on the Chalkboard comes on, who's that Kelly Ripper and Ryan Secret? I like him? I cannot, I don't. I guess I don't like and see I feel like their show is along the lines of like Fallon. It's just like has this little like cheesy music and all that stuff right, Like I just I can't take it. It's like and I run, I literally run. Actually set all my my TVs to like change to the Today
Show at nine o'clock. Oh wow, that's impressive, yes, because I cannot if I hear On Depressed, I hear Kelly Ripple or one of my TVs, I'm like, okay, so I'm Good Morning America until it goes off at nine. And then at nine o'clock I turned into Today Show and then I watched the I'm just gonna keep going because I watched today's show at nine. This is not this is not in the pose. I watched the nine o'clock hour, I watched their ten o'clock hour, and then
at eleven I watched the View. Oh yeah, we love the View. And then at twelve, I'm so excited because NBC now has a daytime news show at twelve.

It was a lot of people there, so I see Sunny, and I was like so excited, like Sunny, so I'm like hugging her, She's hugging me. Um, I said, I
