They were so happy like people. The feedback was awesome. So you know, hopefully we need we we might need to dig that up and read some some feedback. Yes for sure, for sure. All right, it is time for our Reasonably Shady Moment of the week.

I'm first, first, Okay, I'm first, okay, So okay, I have to like paint the picture. Okay, So if you are Bravo talent, I can just speak for Bravo UM. By the way, before I get my reasonably shady moment. I do want to shout out my daughter, Grace Giselle Bryant her birthday. Yeah, her real name is Giselle. Yes, I wanted somebody else to be named Giselle. Her birthday just passed, and I just want to wish her happy birthday. She turned eighteen. Oh my god, I I know it

makes me sad you having to do. And I did tell her. I was like, Grace, you're like, you're old enough now that you can legally leave my house and go be on your own. And she's like, I ain't going nowhere, and you right, She was like, mom, I don't have enough money for that was, no, you do not, So she's going nowhere. Happy birthday, Yes, happy birth So crazy because I just recently saw a clip and they

showed flashbacks to like season one. Yes, they were so little, so okay, seven so she was like eleven maybe yeah when we were filming that, I think she was ten and the twins were eight, so yeah, they were young. They're growing up um in front of everybody's eyes, and it makes me sad, and let's move on. It's to see, all right, So I'm gonna give you my reasonably shading moment of the week. I'm gonna trying to make it as quick as possible because it irritated the f out

of me. So, um, if you're a Bravo talent, right, and let's say they want you to come to New York to work on something or do press or whatever. Um, this is kind of how it goes. Right. There's car service that picks you up from your house, takes you to the airport or the chain station. The car service picks you up from there, takes you to the hotel. The car service the next day, we'll you up and then take you where you need to be. Right, that's a lot of car service, but that's just it is

what it is. So last week there was a Bravo talent who was traveling and it was not me, but the car service had my number for her. So they were calling me telling me that they were at my house to pick me up. Then they were calling me telling me that they were at the airport to take me to my hotel all night long, and I didn't know who was connected to all night long, Like what time this was, like eleven eleven thirty at nine pm pm Because she flew in from this is it was.

I found out it was for Alexia. I was coming in from Miami. Alexei as a housewife on the Housewives in Miami. She was going into New York. I guess she got in like around eleven. I knew her whole schedule because they've been calling me so and and go to bed at eight. I was yes. So the next day they still calling me because of course she's got a go from her hotel to whatever she's gonna do in the city. So um. Finally it's said when they texted me her name and I was like, oh my god,

this is Alexey. I call Alexey. I'm like, girl, you in New York. Yeah, your car services been calling me for two days and I don't appreciate it. We're laughing. So the shady moment is, I think, to the production company who set this up, Yeah, someone clearly got your numbers mixed up, Like, yes, your names aren't even anywhere close. No, No, I mean we we do. We are on this show that we did together. But like it was a good key key but not really because I didn't think it

was funny. She laughed. I didn't think it was funny, okay, and she's probably like in New York wondering like, wow, this car services not calling me because the car services they call you when they're like the cars dispatch or nearly send the text the car has been dispatched, the cars outside the car, and then the driver like because all of that and it's not for you. Yeah, I was angry, frustrated, Alex See. Yeah, I hope you traveled safely. Honey. Yes,

y'all ruin Gizell's beauty sleep. She's ugly today, y'all. I got bags on the eyes and everything is so ugly. All right, what is your shady moment? Okay, so my shady moment? You know, I shared this on my Instagram. I feel like we talked about this all the time because it doesn't stop. But um, you know, okay, So let's first say, the Real Housewives of Time, it gets back on eight o'clock on Sunday. What you're talking about? I know what I'm saying now that we're back on

thing you know, the social media giants? Yes, okay, okay, I thought you were like doing a promo for the show. No, no, y'all know we're back on eight o'clock Sundays. Yes, so yes, So now that the show is on and people are watching, um, you know, we're getting everybody in their mama and their opinions coming at us on social media. And Okay, it's fine. If you don't like me, fine, that's you know, what can I do about it? If you think I was wrong? Fine?

But like this woman literally, Lee literally told me she hoped I die. I want you to read it? Can you read it? I'll read it. It's first of all, people are like, what what what is she saying? Because because she can't even put so this is the funny part, because she's censoring the word bitch right by writing uppercase b h I I so you know who who knows what that is? I don't know, but I'm assuming just giving what she's saying that she's censoring the word bitch right.

So it's like, you are holy enough to not curse at me, right, censor the word bitchy, but then tell me I hope you die and sane right? Insane? Right? So are we giving her name? Okay, what's her name? Her name is Nicki Edwards? Oh my gosh. And then someone comments, so I gotta read it so before before I read it? Huh, someone comment I posted this on my Instagram and someone commented that they grew up with her. Oh lovely, I grew up with her. I cannot believe

that you know whatever? Anyway? So I mean, do you want to read this? Yes? So Nikki Edwards's gonna read this in Nicky's voice? Yes, reading in Nicki's voice said you low down, red, nasty b I you wrong for not inviting Wendy and her kids? What you what do you have against her? Because she dark skinned? And how the hell you gonna as another bit to bring her kids? I hope you die, bitch? How crazy is that? How are you writing that? Who writes that? Who actually? Like?

I just need I need an explanation, right from people who do this, from people who like send hate on Instagram, for people who even like spew negativity, Like why why there's so there's so many questions there? First of all, there's thousands over the time that I ignore. Right, Also, like this is not like oh my god, I got one hate, No, and I'm and I'm upset about it. But when you tell me I hope you die, That's

when I'm like, all right, your ass is going on blast. Okay, I'm like, I got to show the world that this is the crazy ship that I received, you know what I mean, and that I received too. Yeah, And I know you're unfortunately, I know you do, right, but I'm just like, enough is enough? Um? So, question number one? When you watch these shows and so so people out here?

Who are who are listening? Um? You know, if you have these emotional reactions to a reality show and you feel they need to go on social media and you know, go to someone's page and call them out their name and or whatever, or even go on like these sites and just speaking negativity? Um. Question number one, do you realize that when you're watching a show that this stuff has happened months and months and months ago? Right? That's number one? Number one? Number two? Question number two? Are

you not a human? Because what human is perfect? And you don't does what you consider the perfect thing? You are? I'm saying so so for me, she according to your standards? Right, But I'm like, who how do I And I always said, like what are y'all watching? Like? How do you not see people argue? Like literally argue? And who in they write mind turns around to someone they just argued with

and nicely speak to them. I don't know. I don't there any human that can do that, especially if it's someone that like you have like argued with over for over a year and you've never and you have not been friends with for over a year. I'm like, I don't understand, Like, which, what are y'all not comprehending? Like we weren't friends to begin with, we didn't have a good relationship to begin with. Well, we just argued. They

literally didn't show everything. She called me the devil, but whatever, we just argued, and who when they read mind turns around and says, hey, girl, what you're doing next week? I don't get it. You want you want to come to my event? I'm having a little a little get together, a little gathering, right, yeah, no, but anyway, I don't I'm not even here to like explain my point. I'm

just here. I'm just so confused. I'm like, how can something like that get people so upset when you literally just watched us argue to the point where they're they're there, they just had to go on social media, go to your page and tell you that they want you to die insane, right, Which, like so anyway, people who do this, like, can y'all just email us tell us why y'all do this? Do you really want me to die? Like? Do you really want me to die over reality? Like that? Make you? Like?

Would that have made her feel good if I died of a heart attack the next day? I mean, I don't know. I don't know, but I mean, how do you put that energy out there? Right? How do you even put that in your head? Like? What is happening? Okay? So if if you are because somebody said, oh I grew up with her, that's not even a fake page, right,

that's like that's your real page, that's your real thoughts. Yeah, you're real crazy, So I I so we're asking if you have fallen short of the glory of God and sent some hatred via social media, stand up, email us and tell us why why did you do that? Why did you go on social media? You need to tell somebody to die? Jump off a cliff. I hope your house burns, Like, tell us what in you made you do that? You know I've actually received all of that. Yeah, me too, That's how that's how I can run it

down because I get it all. Yeah, I mean, I get it all, um, but yes, let us know why the hatred is spewing on social media that you contributed to. If you didn't do it, or don't Asia, I'm telling you right now, don't don't send us an email talking about well, one of my girlfriends told me she did this. No, no, no, no,

it has to be you. You did it and you want to But if somebody has insight, if they can say I don't do it, but my my cousin does, like if they have inside, I'm because I'm because I'm baffled. I am. I amuddled, like perplexes, like I just don't understand, Like people trust me when I tell you, releasing negative and toxic energy from your life is so freeing. It's so free. And the part that I hate this is what I really hate. So Like, I want to go

on my Instagram and enjoy my Instagram, right. I want to look at my Instagram and my feed and the people that I want to look at I want to receive, you know, I want to communicate with the positive people on my page. I don't want to have to filter through the nasty, toxic stuff that I don't even care to not I don't I don't care if you don't like me, so I don't even care to know about that. So I limit Now I have to limit my comments. So I'm only right now and it's said that I

have to do this, so I limit my comments. So the only people that can comment on my page are people that I follow or that follow me. Okay, okay, same thing. So and I've also limited my mentions, so the only people that can at me in a in another post or a story are people that I follow. Okay, I like that, but so I've had so now I've had to restrict my access to the public right or the public access to me, because I don't necessarily want this negative stuff, this negative energy in my in my world.

So then you have the people that go in your in my d M s and saying bitch, now, how you gonna turn your comments off? You know you was wrong? So how you go throw your comments off? Like? What the what the what part of I don't want to talk to you? Do you not understand? I don't understand these see what I hear are crazy and it's really saying and it's crazy. I said on the show, I don't give up if you think I'm horrible. Yes, I'm petty. I'm I don't give up. I don't need you to

call to my paget. I don't need a hundred people to come from page and tell me I was wrong. Okay, now I do. I do like how garcell has handled some things. Garcella's on the Real Housewives. She's got more um class than look. Just just a tad, just a tad, not much garcell anyway. So, so there was an incident Beverly Hills. It had to do with UM, Garcella's son, and Garcella felt like Diana, who was another cast mate, had bought box to target Garcelle and Garcella's son, which

I don't think she went to that extent. I think Diana did. But I'm just gonna mind my business, Okay, so Garcelle. So there was an investigation, So Diana said, I'm hiring lawyers because these people got a whole lot of money to spend on some lawyers. Because I would have been like, but Diana's like, I'm listening. I'm rich. I'm a rich bitch. So I'm I got some lawyers on retainer. And they did an investigation and they found the person that UM I guess disseminated the box or whatever.

I don't know. Anyway, I don't even know if they said that that was the person that disseminated the box. It was just a person that a person, Okay, I don't know, so Garcella. They asked Garsela like, well, how do you feel about Diana's investigation? And Garcella with her, you know, very classy self. She was like, what who Garza Diana. Oh, yeah, I have my own investigation going. Don't really care about that one, you know. I was like, yes, Garcelle, yes,

but even further what I appreciated that Garcela did. And I have felt this way. I haven't done it, but I have felt this way. So their season is now over, they have gotten through the reunion. It's over there on hiatus until they start, you know, filming again. And she said, she tweeted, guys seasons over. I appreciate you all watching. I'm done with y'all right, and I'm taking a breath,

taking a break. And I appreciate that something and and and I want to say if she has been pushed to the point via social media that she feels like she needs to take a break, y'all leave alone. Just leave Hallel alone, yes, robbing alone, right, leave us alone. Like we're here, we're we're on a show about our lives, about our real lives, about our real interactions with real people, and we go through ups and downs as we're here for you're also you know, you hope to be entertained

by it. But it what I think a lot of the fans don't realize is they're gonna harass us to the point where we're just gonna sit there and braid each other's hair. Okay, that's not happening. I'm on. Well, I'm just saying but that I feel like that. I feel like you can watch some of the shows and you or some of the people on some of the shows and see that that's what's going on. Do you know what I mean? Like they like people are are afraid to really say how they feel or how they

what they're really thinking. They don't want to push buttons. You know, that's when they get called on hot mics, and you know, they say how they really feel on a hot mic because they're not they're too chicken to say it on air, on in front of a camera. But people are about to get their wish of all going bye bye and the people as Elon Musk because you now, oh yeah, yeah, I want to have people

who have a check verified check on Twitter. You want them to pay monthly right first of its twenty dollars and eight dollars. Listen, take my check and take me off right. I mean, if you want me to pay to be on Twitter, you out of your mind that when's the last time you sent a tweet? Not recently exactly? So I'm like, you know me, I'm like, good, get me. Actually, you know what, let me let me. I don't mind just going to I don't I never go on Twitter.

Well if if so, but I want I want a the rationale behind this, Like he says that Twitter's in the hole and he needs to make some money. No, okay, and just why did he buy it? Why did you buy it? And so if because I had thought about it and I was like, okay, So so when we became Housewives Bravo or whatever, our pr are marketing verified us and we all we all got to check which, by the way, who gives you about this check? But whatever? I think, well I think it. Lets like the people

who are looking for you or your page. They know, like, okay, this is really her. Okay, so are they gonna They're gonna uh sen bravo and invoice for this eight dollars a month. That don't want to charge me, I guess because he was not paying any money, not paying eight cents. I'm not paying a g to because this is a vehicle that trashes me. So I want to pay to stay and get trash. No thank you, no, no thank you. I know. And I'm like, how is this going to work?

I mean, I don't know. We'll see if that actually happens. Um which but which is so crazy also about Twitter, Like I'm hearing that the employees are literally working like NonStop round the clock, sleeping and sleeping mags on the floor in the office because because he, I don't know, they are like he took over and now there's like so much that he's demanding to be done. And and then I think people are hoping that they don't get fired. Apparently he's you know, going to get rid of a

bunch of people. So I don't know, it's a whole mask. Ellen Musk reportedly plans to eliminate about thirty d jobs at Twitter. Amounting to half of the company's workforce. So that's according to various reports here this morning. Most aims to make the announcement in an effort to bring down costs following his four billion dollar acquisition. You know what, honestly, when we get off this pod, yeah, I might just delete my Twitter page. I mean, but like I said,

don't make a difference to me. I don't even don't delete it. But there's somebody that's unemployed that he can't hire, who needs a job. His name is Kanye, So just go elon, call your boy. Yeah, he needs a job. Kanye got what he wanted, which is what to be broke. He wanted to be released from Adidas, and he was released, Yes, but I don't think he wanted the rest of the

bank to kick him out. Letsiaga gap um Now. Now Kim looks at him and she says, nanny, nanny boo boo, Like you know what I mean, he doesn't want all that. Chris Jenner is like, it's about damn time. But anyway, I feel like if we talk about Kanye right now, like by the time this podcast airs is going to be like a whole different story. So it's like there's no point and even talk about hell no, no, no, we don't need to talk about Okay, I do want to talk about take Off? Oh my god? Yeah, who

is the third of the me goes? It's Offset Quavo and take Off? Who was shot by random bullet? I believe they're not intended for him? How do how do we get this to in? It's like really sad because I was like at a bowling alley, a bowling alley. We can't you can't even go to a bowling alley. I mean, and I know, you know, the investigation is still going on. We're still getting the details of what happened.

Apparently there was some words exchange, but like a bowling alley, a bowling alley, And it's like, why do we need to carry around guns? Right? Why do we need to do that? Right? Why do we need to kill like so because somebody said something, you don't like you want to kill him? I don't. It's just like in a like who were the shots intended for? Too? Like that's that's a good question, you know what I mean, like

you really intended to kill this person? Because I I've seen videos where like it's like a group of people, and they're around and they're you know, just kind of talking, and it's so weird. It's like, how do we go How do we skip the the fist part? No one fights anymore like their fists that doesn't happen how anymore? How do you literally go from words? They weren't even screaming like they weren't. It didn't sound like an argument

to me. It was just kind of like some like hey man, get on out here with that, you know, stuff like that. How do you go from that? Two gunshots? Right? Like where's the fist? The cut? The pulling out of hair to kicking or something something? If you really are are you know that upset? I just I just it's just gotta end. We gotta do better. There's no reason for people to be walking around with these guns. Everybody is strapped up. Why. I don't know. Can we just

go back to living our lives peacefully? Yeah? I don't know. I know one thing. Like the more of the stuff happens. I feel sorry for my kids because they're not going to have anywhere near a childhood or you know, like memories like I had, you know what I mean? There, their father is not letting them go anywhere. I know that for sure. Okay, you know what I mean. Let let the boys leave the house a little bit. It's scary though. It's scary, but you know, honestly, my kids

probably don't want to leave the house. They see the stuff and they and they don't. They want no parts. Yes, And on top of that, shoot Lebron James Son was in Maryland recently playing a basketball games, like a high school exhibition game, and folks started running because apparently there was a gun. I don't know, I don't know if it's there or whatever, but you know, someone saw it. Someone saw the gun and people start running like that's scary. It was a two day tournament and they had to

cancel the whole thing for two days. So like, you don't even give these boys apportunity to play do something that they love to do because people have guns and they potentially might shoot somebody. Like this is a mess. Everybody stopped. Yeah. I've literally been in a youth basketball game. I think this was my kids were in. I think

Corey was in fourth grade. We were at a tournament, local tournament and it brought like a lot of teams from all over New York, New Jersey, you know, Georgia, Virginia, whatever, And literally one of the coaches gets into it with um a spectator and pulls the gun out the coach. The coaches strapped out. Yes, it was like an assistant coach pulls a gun out. What yes, where was this? This was right down in jessip and that it was a big, huge basketball tournament. The people playing it was

fourth graders on the court playing. Okay, that's insane because at a basketball game, nothing is that that stressful or upsetting that you need to end it with a gunshot. But imagine so much happens, like with referees, Like people get mad at referees and the referees and then shoot the referee might go to their car and get their guns. Like it's just it's horrible. I just I don't understand. I wish it would stop. But you know, my condolences to take off his family and friends and everyone in

the music industry morning this. It's like, but I don't want to hear it. I just I don't want to hear this anymore. No, it's it's got to stop. But okay, but on another note with offset, because right before this happened, I was actually intrigued with Offset and just I don't think I've ever heard him talk, right, I know, you know, and it kitden't like all of that. I know the songs, right, I knew one word out of that whole lyric, but

I wanted to hear him talk. So I was scrolling through HBO and he has a show called The Hype, Carli, have you seen the Hype? I haven't seen it? Okay, So The Hype is similar to Project Runway, and it's a competition show in which kids are not kids, but

like designers are making streetwear. Okay. Now I didn't know street where it was the thing, right, Okay, but streetwear, I mean I knew streetwear it was the thing, but I didn't know it was like a thing like think thing, Like we got competitions over who has the best streetwear. Streetwearing my mind is like baggy cargo paints and a hoodie? Right yeah, so what is streetwear exactly? So you need

to watch. So Offset is one of the judges. It's actually I think his show Marnie who Martie Stopped Something isr is Beyonce. I can't pronounce her last name, and I love this woman. Hi My name is Martie Santa Fonte. I'm a stylist and costume designer. She is Beyonce stylist, and Martie is the one that always has like a top knot, white lady blonde hair, top knot. And I'm talking about that was stalin Michelle Obama years ago. Um, I don't know how you go from Michelle Obama to Beyonce.

I mean she did the whole homecoming white lady was I know Michelle Obama had heard style. This was a white lady, blonde hair with top knot. She's not Michelle Obama's vibe, but I can be then, yes, they can switch off. But she did the whole Coachella thing, the whole that whole thing anyway. Um, and and another girl who I don't I don't know who she is anyway, long story short, Offset is smart artick you lit. I mean he does say the word um yeah, man, that's

real hard. Yeah, that's that's that's fire. Yeah. I mean he does a lot of that. But like, I am very impressed with him, and I see now why him and CARDI are married. Yeah, oh really I do, because I was like, Okay, he got some swag with him he's cleaned himself up. He's a nice looking guy and I see it. Yeah. Yeah. And and you know Marnie, I like her too, so you know she's also intriguing for the whole show. Okay, Yeah, I don't know a lot about the Mean Goes either, but outside of their music. So,

but but I'm sure they're all extremely intelligent. I feel like anyone to be First of all, can you can you rap? Like? You know what I'm saying, Like I just try to in the kitchen, right, that's not it's that actually requires a lot of not just talent, but intelligence, yes, to be able to wrap. Um, and I think people don't give them credit for that. Um. So I'm sure they are all quite intelligent. But um, it's good to see them do like see him doing something other things. Yeah,

and they're on I think season two now. Um, I just I started watching it. I started from the beginning season one. I'm actually loving the designers. They're all pretty young. They're on their grind, you know. It's it's nice to see that they they're honing their craft, like they know how to sew all that. Okay, so what is streetwear? Yeah, I'm still confused as to what exactly streetwear is, but it consists of some sort of hoodie, a a baggy pant.

For the girls, you might get a hoodie that's like cropped, or you might get a tank top. Situation, um, you know, when they have challenges or whatever. But it's I'm enjoying it. So it's more just okay, street where actually a category of clothing or are we just saying it's just it is? Okay, Carly, So it is. Yes, it's most definitely, and you have to be like relevant, you know, sometimes they have to

like rep for their um where they're from. One girl who's from Kentucky, she decided to make a band a red bandana jacket there in l A. Well, no, no, you got sent home as soon as she made it. I was like, you're going home? Yes, first of all, girl, you're from Kentucky, Like, how does it make no sense? But anyway, I'm enjoying it. Thank you. Offset. I totally appreciate who and what he is. And Marnie, anytime you want to, like give me a Beyonce styling of the day,

feel free Okay, yes, all right, I'm gonna look her up. Yeah, she's a bad one, so Julia Roberts posted something the other day and she said, and I'm gonna read what she posted. Are you ready? She revealed that the late Martin Luther King Jr. And his wife Coreti Scott King. But we love paid the hospital bill for her birth when her parents couldn't afford it. So I said to myself, But I had so many questions. First of all, how old is Julia Roberts? When was she born? Ji, I

don't know. Carl is gonna tell us? Okay, what's what's the story on this? Okay, No, I'm she I don't know. For whatever reason, she decided to tell this to us. Now, Julia Roberts and pretty Woman was twenty years ago. You didn't want to lead with that when you first came into relevance. You didn't want to say, hey, by the way, the great Martin Luther King and Coreti Scott King paid for me to be born. Basically, you didn't want to

lead with that. That that is so interesting. It's random. Yes, it's very random, so interesting, and I want to know, like, Okay, where were she born? I guess it's Mississippi. Is something I don't know. And the question is who was how did that happen? Like is it was that Corretta and Martin's like uma? Was that their their charity that they were in hospitals helping out new newborn moms. It was a charity. Okay. So we just got the story from Carl.

If y'a couldn't here, we're gonna tell you I'm a story. Okay. So Julia Roberts mother had a theater school and she would let Martin and Coretta Scott King's children participate in the theater school. So in order I guess to pay this, maybe they couldn't. Maybe the black kids couldn't go to theater school because they were black. Okay. So when she was pregnant with Julia and this was a giftback, So Martin Luther King decided, Okay, I'm gonna give back because

you helped me. You you allowed my kids to go to theater school and they're black, and I'm gonna help you by paying for Julie Roberts birth. That's insane, it's amazing, it is beyond amazing. Yes, but like, why, Julia Roberts did you save this story? Why didn't I know this a long time? She might have said it before and when she didn't, she did not say this it's new information. This is t okay. She spilled the tea and we know who paid for her to be brought into this world. Wow,

is special. She is like, she's like a treasure. She's like, yeah, a U s treasure. Yes. So, if if any white actors actresses have any tidbits of information about Martin Luther King, tell us now, don't let me wait twenty years for this, okay and the end. That's awesome to know that like Martin Luther King, you know, he was a black man

fighting for equality for black people. But they also, you know, just because Julie Roberts parents were white, they weren't like, oh no, we're not gonna you know, so they were just you know, I feel like he lived by the principles by which he preached. Yes, injustice anywhere is justice, injustice everywhere? That it injustice somewhere is injustice everywhere? Yeah, okay, so black girls and black boys, yes, a little white girls. What? I don't know what? So we have I have a

diep up on our I have a dream. Yes, we got, we got, We're gonna do some homework. Wait, wait minute, we'll be ready for February black January, we'll be ready for quotes in January. Oh my god, speaking of so, first of all, y'all like elections, Yes, let's not forget to talk about that. No, we're not. Okay, all right, If you haven't voted early yet, then like, um, time is running out and the big day is tomorrow tomorrow, yes, big days tomorrow, November eight. Please vote. There's no reason

for you not to vote. Why are you not going to vote? Right? I saw a woman on TV talking about she wasn't want to vote. This was Oh my god, it was. It was DC. They were talking about the mayor, um, the election for the new mayor, whatever's going on in DC. And they're like, you know, what are your issues with DC? And she's like the crime. You know, everyone is like the crime, the crime, the crime. And she's and they're like, well, are you going to vote? She's like, I'm not going

to vote. I'm not going to vote because it never changes, nothing changes. Okay, I just want to let y'all know. I just Bryant took her daughter, Grace Bryant, to vote, so we did early voting. It was Grace's first time that she was capable and able to vote, and um, it was a celebration up in there. They were so excited that it was Grace's first time. They gave her a standing ovation and everybody was super happy. I did have to have poor with her ballot, but that's not

the point. She You know, she felt like she contributed. She felt like a person. Yeah, I feel like I remember the first time I voted, and it was definitely significant and I felt, you know, like I was doing something right. But that's nice that they acknowledged that they did. They were they were so excited, and um, we have a significant governoratorial governor ratep goobernatorial race here in the

state of Maryland, and we are pulling for Westmore. So when I see west when he wins, because he's going to, I'm gonna tell him that Grace's first vote was for him. Oh yes, that's really nice. Yeah I think so. Yes, yes, So with that being said, if you're in Maryland, please vote for Westmore. Okay. He's an amazing, amazing, amazing person, you know, I mean, and I know we need more than just an amazing person to run our state. Um, but I know that he's super qualified and capable to

do it, and he has great people around him. So please vote for Westmore. It's very important. And I know a lot of people are like, oh, yeah, what's this going to get it? What's this going to get it? Like, you know, it's want to take cannot take it for granted, because I really I felt like years ago we took it for granted that Hillary Clinton was going to win. And we all, you know, we all the Democrats received the shock of our lives when Trump won. So so

let's not take it for granted. And please show up and vote for Westmore, um if you want to sport the Democrats. And and a little bit on that note, and I I hate to bring this up, but we have to bring this up because we can't stick our heads in the sand. Speaking of Trump, one of these Trumpers decided to go to Nancy Pelosi's house in San Francisco. She was not there, but her husband was, and this man beat Peter Pelosi with a hammer practice skull. I

think um injured his torso horrible. This has got to stop. Just because you have different political views than somebody else does not mean that they should be harmed. We have to respect each other's different views the end, it's disgusting. It's beyond disgusting, disgusting. Yeah, and I can't. I would

hate to think. And you know, I'm gonna speak for my children, my um for us, or for our children to fee feel like they're going to be hurt physically because I have different political views than the next person. Like that should never happen like that, That's not what America is about. No, that's not what our country is about. That's what other countries are about. Like, that's not what That's not what this country is about. It just so

it's heartbreaking. It's heartbreaking to see where we are. It's so crazy. You I I know when I was like younger, maybe in high school, and when I thought about the future, I didn't envision this. I didn't envision our country being like I feel like we're we've gone so far backwards. And I did not picture that as an adult I would be seeing times like this in America. Now. It's it's it's bad. Okay. So on another note, happier note, Robin, We've got to talk about our toxic traits. It's a

people pull a question. And if you have a toxic trade, please send us a little email as to what it is, because they're typically very funny. Is your toxic trade? So, so what is your toxic trait? Okay? So, but like what might be toxic to someone else, right, might not be toxic. Okay. For instance, you probably hate the fact that I'm like energetic and happy like most of the time. No, that's yes, that's not toxic. No, okay, So I don't have any toxic traits. No, I'm just going to tell you,

like sounds perfect, you don't have any? Yeah, okay. So so first, also funny, somebody commented on one of my um on Instagram posts. It's like not related to the post, but it was like, by the way, Wan's toxic traite is walking away from difficult conversations. Oh and I'm like, you're absolutely right, Like that's that's what he does. Like when he doesn't want to talk about something, he just walks away. He walks away. That would irritate the heck. So they said that because they saw him do it

on the show. They actually we've seen him do a multiple time, maybe four over the seven seasons. Yes, okay, so wait, so I have a question that wait, has have you all had a conversation. He was walking away and you got up and you jumped on his back. You will not leave, and you tackle him and you throw him on the ground and you head to him. You're a bad less than to me, No, because I know how to so, so I know how to deal with it, right, how do you deal with it? So

the way I deal with it, I let him walk away. Yeah, I let him stew in his thoughts and his feelings, and then I just wait, how wait? How long we wait? Rob like days? It could be it could be the next day, it could be it could be that, you know, hours later, it could be the next day, because I know he's always going to come back around. Oh, and then we like so you know when you said and I can't believe you. You know what I'm saying. So he always brings it back up. You don't have to

bring it back up. I just ignore it. Wow, that is okay. So my toxic trade is I would be like, oh hey, oh no, you ain't walking away, right, and we're gonna talk about this right now. That's my toxic right. Yeah. Yeah, Like I know how to do like the reverse psychology where I'm just and then I just wait and then come back. So what so what happens in the reverse? What if he says something to you that you don't

want to talk about. Um, I don't, Yeah, I don't. Um, I don't walk away like I try to like talk it out. I try to talk it out. But another toxic trade of his is he cuts me off all

the time. So like you know, even if I'm talking and then he cuts me off, and I'm like, you're cutting me off, and then and then I try to talk again and I'm like, you're cutting me off and then and so he walks away and then he walks So he does do things wrong, okay, and that's what Like I cannot stand being cut off, Like no, like when I feel like I'm I'm trying to that I'm trying to have a civil conversation, like I'm literally just trying to explain what's going on, and then I get

cut off in the person like they cut you off because they don't want to hear what you have to say, that because you're gonna hear what I have to say, right wow? So so yeah, So anyway, so I thought that was funny that it was like um on stocks, I'm like you're so right. It is. Um, I think my toxic traite and I think you kind of have a same similar trait is like is it's weird. It's like, um, it's like good and bad. It's like good for us, but it can be bad for the people in the

receiving end. Like I literally just don't care, like I say, I say the words I don't care often because I really like, like I don't care about what someone thinks of me, or I don't care you know, okay, like if you call me, you know, fifty million whatever words up my name, like I don't really care. But is that a toxic traite? No, that's like survival, that's like

how we handle the bullshit. But for me, I think it gets toxic when, like say I do have a disagreement with someone because I don't care, like my I become emotionally detached. So maybe the maybe the toxic trait is that I am capable of becoming emotionally detached. Yes, and I that's my toxic trait and I love it, right,

I think it's amazing. Right, It's like it's great, And that's the thing I'm like, I wish I tell people I'm like I wish you could like have this toxic trait because then you won't like stew and like stress over things all the time. You're not gonna sit around you know why she say that? Why does she do that? Why do you do that? Blah blah blah. Like I'm literally type like I can emotionally detach and like I would never have to speak to you again in my life.

I never see your face. Yeah, Like I don't need the explanation. I don't know you said what she said? What? Okay? Bye? We can okay, like in the story By and good. But I think that becomes that can be toxic because the person on the receiving end who may care and they want to see that you care. It's like you make it worse because you don't care because you literally just cut them off and act like they never existed, you know what I mean. I think it's better just

to cut them off, act like they didn't exist. That's yes, I like that. It's been working for me very well. No, right, right, but I just but I do think that that it works. But then you have to like think about I don't know, just to a degree, like you gotta show some sort of emotions somehow. Okay, We're only gonna show emotions to our reasonably shady listeners. We absolutely love you guys. We

think y'all are amazing. That is actually our show. I don't ever figet to live your life either reasonable or should you or both? Is it both or both? Bye? Bye?
