of the week. Are you gonna go first? Sure? Okay, yeah, I mean it's not that exciting because, like I said the last time, I don't go anywhere, I don't do anything. And I'm getting to myself once again because I'm the shady person to myself. All right, So a few years ago, you're shady? Yeah, okay, alright, what's up? So a few years ago my assurance changed, which means I didn't have
access to my same dentist. So I kind of have not been to the dentist in like I'm a couple two years or so, it's a few years, like three fo years. So you had like yuck mouth. Well, I take very good care of my mouth. Okay, alright, somebody mouth So no, I mean, in my opinion, no, I didn't have yuck mouth. I take very good care of
my mouth. But I finally was like, and it's so crazy because it's like the shady part is just like not taking time to take care of myself, right, you know, because we um, we make sure we get our eyelashes done, we make sure we get our facials, we get our hair done. And since I didn't have access to my old dentist, like I just it just kind of slipped my mind mine. You know, I didn't get my normal reminder emails and stuff like that to make my appointment stuff.
You know. But I'm always my kids go to the dentist every six months whatever. Um, So finally I went to the dentist and yeah, she had a lot of work to do. So you had yung MOUTHPA didn't know it. I don't want to call it. Don't call it yu mouth, So what do you call it? Um? I just needed some extra some some extra time. They spent a little extra time in there, and I actually found out. So I always thought that, like Invisiligne, was for cosmetic reasons.
So my bottom teeth, um are crowded. I had braces when I was in high school. It clearly didn't wear my retainers like I should have. UM. So she was explaining to me, like, the crowding and my teeth is not allowing me to like you know, clean them or or you know, as good as I should be able to. So like now like probably need to get invisil Ligne. Probably you know, I got it. I got actually got Smile directing Visiligne a little too expensive. I told you all,
I'm the chiefest rich woman y'all ever met. Okay, But anyway, because I grind at night, so I grind my teeth and my teeth started shifting, so I needed to ship them back with um Smile direct and which is a third of the price of a vis align. But same thing, the same thing. What do you mean the same thing but you just don't go to they mail you all of your stuff. You don't go to like a dog our dentist every two weeks or whatever. But anyway, long story show you I have to wear my retainer every
night or still shift back. Okay, yeah, so I'm I'm making my point of mine to just take care of my you know, all of my hygiene, hygiene, my health, all of that good stuff. But by the way, and I can say that today, it's oh wait, I'm sorry. This is why it's really shady. It's like the really shady part. You know, my father's a dentist. Yes, I was, well, I was gonna throw that in there, like one of
the like top black dentists of his time. Right, So it's like you can't even go to family dentist because your father is gonna be looking like Robbins the last time you got those teeth clings. Oh and and today I got my pepsmere and my mamogram done, and just ladies, definitely you want to take care of your mamogram, especially because you just never know, Yes, absolutely, mamograms. What does it every year when after after you turn forty, right, some mammograms and then you know it's so crazy. So
the pep smear thing. Didn't They recently change it from like we used to go every year and then they would be like, oh, now you can go every three years. And I always thought that sounded crazy. So that was another thing. So because they changed it to three years, I was not going to my doctor every year. So my doctor was like, no, you still want to come to the doctor every year. It's just you know, the PEP smear is supposed to be every three years. But
even the doctor like didn't really like that advice. But so for me, I hadn't seen my o B or my kind of collegist in like three years because I'm waiting for my pepoint. You gotta they have to check you out, make sure everything down there is good. Yes, So everyone to care of your bodies, you know, do your annual physicals with your you know, your primary physician, you're guy in of colleges, you're you know, go get your go to your dental appointments every six months. What
else is she doing? I don't know. I don't know if we're just doing it. Okay, anyway, I'm going to tell you about my shady moment of the week. Okay, So my sister, of course we were your sister again, my sister get right, but this is you know, I'm actually bringing this up because I'm very proud of her, But my sister is shady. So she got a knee replacement surgery, okay, okay, I know, and she's doing so well.
Oh I'm sorry she got any replacement surgery. And she moved in with me so I could take care of her because you know, she needs somebody to like help her get foods. There being a nurse. I'm nurse Betty up in my house. But that's not even a shady part. Okay. So the day before her surgery, she comes over and she like brings like all these bags, and she brings cases of water, and she brings like piles and piles of like toilet paper. Right, So I was like, yo, uh, sis,
I have toilet paper and I have water. And she was like, I don't like your toilet paper. Your toilet paper is cheap. It is actually isn't really you just cheap toilet paper, Okay. So I was like offended. I was like, I'm in toilet paper, just wiping your eyes, Like why does toilet paper need to be like, I don't know, Bentley, I need soft, nice soft toilet paper. Okay, So I absorbed the kind of a I was gonna call her shady. Maybe I'm shading. Haven't cheap like paper?
You got this stuff that but your wiping your boote and your Jane okay, and it's going straight into the toilet and your flashing. Well okay, but just in your sister's defense, that's like some ship I would do, because like you buy like the grocery store water, I buy, you know, like I sent you right. So it's like, you know, if I'm going to be somewhere for a long time, I'm gonna bring my you know, my expensive water, okay, instead of drinking like your you know, don know deer Park.
I'm not. I'm not drinking your dear park water. Okay. Yes she did bring her heavy and I do have my dear part Okay, So she's okay. I don't mind her the water. It was the toilet pap toilet baber that took me out. I was like, I have cheap toilet paper. Really, she was like some people were just stuck in their ways, you know what I'm saying, Like they're like creatures of habit and they're like, no, I want my toilet paper. I want this, I want that.
I need my special lotion, my special soul, right like she probably you know what I mean. Well, I'm not managed. I'm okay, fine. I thought I thought my sister was shady, but apparently it's me and my toilet paper and my cheapness. But whatever, moving on, um speaking of somebody who's not cheap. So this like struck me as like create a little weird and not weird. I don't wanna say weird. It's a man thing. Okay. So I was on the internet, the Twitter or maybe the Instagram, and I saw that
Fat Joe and Kalid DJ Khalid were together. They were in Kalid's about like a thousand pounds in the room, robbing and shady. So they were in DJ Kali's closet. Okay, there could have been and I'm not even exaggerating shoes. Apparently he's like the King of sneakers, right, But like, okay, so let's say these shoes he had like five hundred that were like the same same color or like same shoe, different color. No, that he could have had, like he could have had a hundred Air Force ones that were
wiped the same. Explain to me, and the reason why I'm bringing this up, Robbers, because you live with three boys, well two boys and a man could be a boy, but who who knows. I look that up to you, what is the fascination with these guy durned sneakers and having like every single single sneaker under the sign? And that job was like, man, you're killing it in here, yeah, man, And calib was like, you know, I'm the King and another one and another one. You know, I'm another one
and another one. Like what fascination sneakers? Okay, So I mean, yes, there's a fascination. There's definitely. They're definitely collectibles at this point, you know. I mean, shoot, people, we're literally wearing the same sneakers from like twenty thirty years ago. Really, yes, Jordan's Air Force ones all that. So they haven't changed.
They've been the same pretty much. I mean maybe different color ways, but like literally and it's and it's it's almost like nostalgic, you know, especially for people probably of Kalid's age, fat Joe's age, our age, it's like, oh my gosh, those are the you know, the Jordan's Jens, Like what you're getting the fine? No, so it's like they're collectibles, they're nostalgic. I mean, they're flies. Still, um, Carly got something stuff. This is our director of operations, Carlin.
Yes it is Carlin. She's speaking. Oh so you're coming up. You really couldn't afford like the two hundred dollar Jordan's right, and now you can afford five thousand of them? Right, Okay, I got it right. But now to speak to like why he has so many if you're saying he had how many he could have had, Like I'm not even like he had like rooms. Yeah, I think that's a little excessive. I mean, but you know what I feel like when you live like clearly he's living a huge life.
He used to really in a humongous house. And I think that's what people do when they have these big old houses. They fill it up with ship that they don't need that ship ship not they have become ship. Yeah. So it's like it's one of those things that's like he does it because he can, not because he needs to. But but you see a lot of these rappers and like if you look go into their closets, nothing but sneakers,
a million of them. Well yeah, and I mean so my thing is like, okay, if you buy like if you buy new ones and get rid of the old ones that you're not gonna wear anything. There we go in one in one out right? Yes, I like that. Yeah, Like why do they have to keep so because there's only how many days in the year, But how many does wine have? So he I mean he used to have a ton so but one is the type he doesn't like, even though it's closer everywhere right now. He
doesn't like, um, a lot of stuff. So he is the type like he's not just first of all, if they have a stuff on them, they're out of here. You know what I'm saying, Like if my shoes are dog, I need some new shoes, okay whatever. So like he's not wearing like you know, shoes over and over again. But he also doesn't like a lot of stuff. So if he's like literally not wearing something, he will give
them away like his friends would make out. His friends and his brother and cousin would make out like fat cats, like literally, especially when he was in the NBA. He would give them Gucci, Louis Vatton, Saint Laurent, like not a Louis Gus And I think I think we might have talked about this on on the podcast before, because I was like, wait a minute, I can sell that on eBay, not robbing. Let me say, Rob has a legitimate eBay business. That's how she got started with these hats, y'all.
And by the way, these are reasonable shady sweatshirts will be available soon. Yeah probably actually by the time we hear this, we'll have some. You gonna help me follold him? Yes, okay, yes, okay, all right, so anyways, yes, I think the guys they just they collect them because they can. But actually, like, how many shoes are gonna we give him away? Right? Okay? Now I do I do before we change gears too fast? I want to. I do want to talk about this one guy that we actually have not spoken on this
podcast about. Okay, his name would be Ray J. Oh, we haven't. I don't think we've talked about I care to speak about I don't care to. Until the other day impressed me. Really, I felt like I might need to dam Ray J. Like so apparently Ray J apparently has done very well in business. He has some like motor what is it? What is the business? Has motor? And this might be why because this spot he has scooters.
I think he's got some headphones. Maybe, yeah, okay, So ray J was very angry and he did a little post on his little Instagram and he said, look, look here's twenty two. It's twenty two, y'all. Don't schedule a meeting with me and then go get left up the night you know, the night before, and then the next morning. You can't meet your obligations, your business obligations. If we schedule a meeting at eight o'clock, it's at eight o'clock, don't call me at seven talking about are we still
having a meeting at eight o'clock. We scheduled a meeting for eight o'clock. It's at eight o'clock. Don't ask you the night before when we're drinking, are we still having a meeting the next day? And no, we scheduled to meet for eight o'clock, it's at eight o'clock. He said, don't play with my time. He said, don't play with my time. It's two and I'm bout my time and
my business because time is money. Now you know this spoke to me, Robin, because you know, I'm like, don't go with him, because like Giselle, if she scheduled something, she scheduled it, and we're doing a damn it. And I asked me, are we doing it because we scheduled We're doing it like it's no wiggle room here, We're doing it. Okay, okay. So this made me feel like ray J is a real dude, Like I like you, ray J. He's probably a virgo. We need to look
you need to look up ray j'sause he's probably a virgo. Yes, and listen, he's successful, he's intentional. He wants to make his money honey, and he does not have time for people to get You can get drunk the night before you can you can get high, you can do all of your chosen drugs. But when it comes to the meeting the next day, we're gonna have that meeting. I got it. I got it. Mean when I'm the one that's like if someone texts me, I'm like, oh, are
they texting me to say it's canceled? Please tell me it's canceled, Rob, It's not canceling. We're having a day of meeting. Because money is power, and power is money or no, time is money, I don't know, whatever it is. Time is money. Money is power. Yes, So ray J, when you come to town, call me because we're gonna schedule a meeting. I can do some big things together, and we're gonna schedule a meeting and we're gonna follow through me. You're not gonna have to confirm your meetings.
Show up, no confirmation necessary. We're gonna show up. I know we talked about our O G meeting last week. Yeah, I just wish y'all could just guess the timeline of who ar I first? Okay, I can't believe. Okay. So in between for those of y'all don't remember the O G s of the show, Karen Robin, Giselle Ashley decided what's gonna get together for lunch? Karen chose one o'clock, right, so, and she chose the restaurant, and she made the reservation. It was under her name, Hugo Party of four. So
it's at one o'clock and it's a reservation. It's not like we're getting together somewhere and just having like a miscellaneous meeting or is this a zoom call. This is a freaking reservation at a restaurant. And mind you, we have rescheduled this meeting. We have been we were trying to get together before the holidays, but we didn't get together until the middle of January. Okay, that's what, But that's neither here nor there. So guests, who got to
the restaurant for Giselle did? She got there at one oh one because the reservation was at one o'clock. I was a minute late. I had to partner car whatever. Okay. So then I'm sitting there and as soon as I sit down, I get a text, and then Karen gives a text saying I'm running ten minutes late the grand No no, no, no, no, she texted before and she
didn't put minute. She said, I'm running late. There's traffic on Canal Road now, right, Okay, and me Karen have to travel the same road to get to the same restaurant because Karen I lived like five minutes from each other and there was no traffic on Canal Road. Karen, but your grand Dominus, you was just late, right, So of course that text message came and I was like, yes, because Robin hadn't even left house. Ye, okay, it's one o'clock.
Robin has not left her house and she leaves the furthest Okay, So Karen is like, twenty minutes late, but it's okay because I'm sitting there and typically I save like emails and stuff because I know I'm gonn waiting for people by myself, So I like was going through my emails all that posting on Instagram. Don't want to do Karen gets there a guess who got there next? Well? No? So then so Karen texted, and then Ashley was like, I'm ten minutes late. Yes, Now that was the lie, Ashley.
You were lying mind you actually lived ten minutes from the restaurant, She says she was running ten minutes late. Ashley, you didn't get there to one forty Ashley. Now I know you a new mom and it's probably hard for you to get out of the house. But Ashley, you were getting your makeup done, Okay, that's why you were late. Okay, because she's trying out a new makeup artist. Yes, I'm
telling her for her TikTok dancers. Yes, okay, And then guess it was legitimately an hour later, Robin comes at Like, Robin comes in the restaurant at one forty six, end up parking the garage. You see you gotta you park? I saw your car. You were like right across the street from the restaurant, so I was like five steps. I had to park in the garage, find my way to the spot, find my way out of the garage, go up the elevator. Turn, Oh where do I go now?
So okay, this is why I get annoyed because I'm sitting there with Karen and we're talking and she's like, oh, no, I want to say. I'm gonna say something, but I have to wait for all the girls to get here. So I'm like okay. And then we keep talking and she's like on another subject and she's like, oh no, I'm not gonna give it to you yet. Just we've
got to wait for all the girls. So then Ashley gets there and she starts talking about stuff with Ashley, and she's like, wait, wait, wait, we've got to wait for Robin before I tell you things. I've got to tell you because I mean, I'm not gonna say it four times, I'm just gonna say it once. And why didn't you even tell us Karen had nothing to say your really, Jeff, Karen has no tea, no story, no nothing, But we have to wait for whatever. How she gotta
tell us. Actually, no, she wanted to tell us that Ray misses us. Oh yes, that's one of the things. The other things I can't say in this podcast, but one of the things is Ray misses us. But yes, Robin, you're like Ray Jay and I want you to be on top. Okay, all right, gosh, oh I would be so scared. Okay, I'll be early if I had a meetim at rage Ange. Oh lord, we have a new segment guys that we uh premiered last week. Are you reasonable? Are you sad? Yes? And we've got so many submissions,
keep them coming. Email your questions to us or your scenarios to us at What's up at reasonably Shady dot com. Um, But I'm just gonna go through a couple more. Yeah, we have a couple more and then and then I want to talk about are you a good mate? Oh? Yes? Okay, Well, well these are actually like perfect for that that topic. Okay, So Jessica, she says, On New Year's Day, my living boyfriend went out to the garage to work on his
car while I did some stuff inside the house. Okay, I had texted him to let him know I was done. When I didn't hear back from him. I walked out to the garage and the door was locked. You know where this is going. I got a sinking feeling as I was walking back inside the house to open the garage doors with the remote. Oh so she's so she took a She said, okay, well I can't get into the garage from the house. I'm gonna go outside and opened the garage with the remarks because I didn't see
what's going on? What are you doing? Right? Oh wow? Okay, good thinging, Jessica. Okay, so I walked back into the house to open the garage with the remote. He came out and told me he was talking to a male friend named Shane. I never heard of shame. Something did instant, right, So I kept pressing. He finally acknowledged that he had
started talking to a female co former co worker. He swore up and down the conversation wasn't anything inappropriate, But I am stuck on the unusual behavior of him locking the door to have an innocent phone call. He quickly got defensive and said he locked the door because he didn't want me to get mad that he was on the phone instead of working on his car and has essentially refused to talk about it since dismissing my concerns. Ladies, please help me. This is indeed shady, isn't it. First
of all, what's the name Jessica? Jessica? He's cheating on you? Okay, So I'm surprised he didn't have like a girl in the car with him in the garage. That's what I thought this was gonna. I mean, that's really bold, Like
that's really super duper bold. Okay, Um, but he clearly I think I I my sense, my gut tells me, yes, he was cheating on you because he wanted to talk to her, because he just left her house, right, because I mean, whether or not you or maybe because it's New Year's Day and he's not you know, what are you doing your New Years Day? You're at home? Right, So for him to leave the house on New Year's Day, he would have to have an excuse or a reason like and what do you mean You're you're going to
go eat while I'm going with you? Since Jessica, Right, So like it's New Year's Day and he trying to talk to his boom and honestly, I don't even know if this is a former coworker. I don't even I don't even believe that this is a former coworker, Like if it was, like, why does he There's nothing innocent about this. This is somebody that he's in a relationship with and he is trying to give her some time and attention. So he goes to his car and I'm just not I'm just happy he's not having sex with
her in the in the trunk. He was kind of stupid for a lock on the door, though, Why would you because because he should have like left the door unlocked, been on the phone, and then if the girlfriend comes open the door, then he should have been like, all right, man, I'll talk to you later. You know what I'm saying, Like, is this her husband or her boyfriend? Her boyfriend? Yeah, Jessica, break up with him. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. He's shady and break up with him and it sucks because
they they lived together. Kick his ass out? Whose name is on the least? Kick his ass out? I was on that Instagram the other day and there was a scenario of are you a good mate? Right? Because this woman said it then when her man comes home from the strip club at three am, if he wants to stay, she hops up out of the bed and cooks him. Mistake. Oh she's stripping. Well, god damn. So that makes a good mate. That so the question game, would you do this for your dude? And are you a good mate?
I'm if this is the criteria, I'm a horrible Oh no, that's not happening. I want to see. I feel like when I hear stuff like that, she's gotta be like twenty two, she's gotta be like you know, I just feel like at my age. Oh no, right, but I know one wakes you up in the middle of the night, Yeah, to like tell me that his feet itch or something, you know what I mean. Like, but I'm saying, like I have made in my relationships disclaimers, don't wake me
up after it's it's quite frustrating. Yes, it's infuriating. Actually, um like he talks to me because he'll play the video game. He'll come upstairs three in the morning and just like talk to me, like I have a regular conversation and I'm like it in the morning. Us. Yeah, I can't even put a sentence together, but anyway, um so, but no, but this is why I'm like this person has to be young and and probably has no kids. Okay, but do you feel like you're a good mate, Robbin? Yes,
I know, I know I'm a great mate. I just think I think it evolves. I think I do think when you're in a young relationship, it's an early relationship. Of course. You know that if it's a male female relationship, the woman is always been in over backwards so she can keep a man. Oh, he went to the strip club. Yeah, but you know he can't get it anywhere better than here.
You know those women at the ship. Let's fine, you can go to strip club, baby, but I'm gonna treat you great when you come home, you know, all that type of stuff. I think women really just bend over backwards sometimes to keep a man. And I'm sorry that is not a reasonable thing to do for three or four in the morning. It's it's first of all, it's selfish on the the man's behalf, Like, you literally want your woman to get out of bed to cook your steak.
First of all, you fat. You shouldn't be eating at three in the morning anyway, And dam I'm sure not a steak, okay, right? That the hell why I got to be a fat. I'm sorry because it just like as I like, see just what happens when I start getting like when I started really processing something, I'm like, wait a minute, yeah, listen, I'm not even making you a peanut butter and jelly sandwich your three o'clock in the morning. Okay, I'm doing nothing. Four ball of stereal.
Like the most I'm gonna do is make sure the groceries are stacked, Like, stop, are you kidding me? I'm like, right, I feel like I used to get mad. I think I've said this like a million times. Like Jamal used to wake me up in the middle of the night too, because he would be packing, and he used to be like, just does this shirt match this? Does this shirt mash? This time matches? Jacket? Boy? I can't even see because you didn't popped up all the light. I'm my vision
is blurry. But he used to do He used do that all the time. He's driving me crazy. I hate that, but like he knew better than to ask me to make him a damn thing. Right, it will actually ever, but it's definitely not. Nobody's doing that. So I had to question myself and ask myself, am I a good mate, Would I be a good mate? Yeah? No, I mean I know there's certain things you're not doing, But I also think I just think when that stuff, that stuff
gets old. Yes, those new relationships you've been over backwards especially, I think a lot it's like a lot more young girls doing it because as we grow immature, we have our boundaries, we know our worth. And the only way I would say that's okay is if that same man it's been and over backwards for me. So if I come home from the club and he's gonna cook me, I don't want to stick at three in the morning.
But you know what I'm saying, Like, if he would do the same, that's the only way I would do that. If if I know that he would be doing the same or something equivalent, something something equivalent, like are you rubbing my feet after I've been wearing heels all day working like at an appearance or something? Right? Yeah, Like okay,
all right, I like that. Yeah. So Jessica, your boyfriend sting, Yeah, you get you getting cheated on sis and just figure out whether or not you want to deal with it, because if if it was me, he'd be gone because he's going he's going to the other part of the house to talk to his whole on the side. So listen, that's a mess. Yeah, don't. I hate it because he's he doesn't want to talk about it because he can't wiggle his way out of it. Just when you let
it go? Um, So really, jessicaes up to you. Are you letting it go? Or are you just letting him go like what you want? Are we doing? Okay? All right? So Karen, Okay, this is a new one, yes, says Okay. Here's here's my question. My sister is getting married in the next few months and her fiance is an absolute bride zilla. It's a lesbian wedding. Her fiance is demanding that bride'smaids where this horrible, corporate looking navy pants suit
or they can pick any navy pants suit. I'm the maid of honor and I have been fighting with my sister about this because the pants suits are awful and I just want to look good at my sister's wedding. I went shopping for a navy pant suit and look so bad and literally everything, and my mom agreed. My sister has now said I can wear a navy dress nice, but I cannot stand at the front under the chip a thing. It's called a chippa. This is a Jewish wedding choppa. Um, I think that's fair, But my mom
is like w t F. Blood is thicker than water. Allah, Caroline Manzo, you know she said that on housewaves in New Jersey. Blood is thicker than water. Yes, So do you think my sister is being being reasonable or shady? Her fiance is shady as for wanting everyone to look horrible at her wedding? What do you think? So that would be a note like? Okay, why is the fiance able to determine what the rides maids are wearing? Like? I think it's I think it's reasonable. You think it's
reasonable to brides means to wear a pants suit. If you're in my wedding, you're gonna wear whatever I ask you to wear. I don't care if it's pantsuit. I don't care if it's a crop top, booty shorts in a halt to top. I don't care what it is. Like you're in my wedding, You're going to wear what I ask you to wear. If you say yes, If I ask you be in my wedding, you say then you know what the deal is? Where would I say? Okay,
but it's weird. It's like she's putting it on the fiance as the bridezilla so like so so she's so she wants to know her sity. Okay, is her sister being reasonable or shady? I think both the people getting married, the lesbians getting married, both of them. And keep in mind these two women, so they're both bridezilla at this point, right, Okay, both of the bridezilla's are very reasonable really because it's
their wedding, because it's their like their wedding, their way. Yes, and it's if it's it's a blue pant suit, you can guess what you now have a blue pant suit you can wear to work. If you can wear to work one now it's a twopa one. Use some of those bridesmaised dresses I've worn. You'll never ever wear you will never wear that bridesmaids dress again. Okay, but you can wear a pantsuit again. Okay, So then this is what we say to Karen. Okay, yes, I I see
your point is out. It is and and I'm so surprised at you, to be honest, like nothing's ever reasonable for you um, so I'm surprised because I'm like, my first thought was, like with the a pants suit at a wedding, like that's just that's just corny, like that's but hey, if that's their wedding, if that's what they want to see in their pictures and they were other people to look like, fine, and if you agree to
be in their wedding, fine. Now if you if it's something where people feel like they look horrible because they're not happy with like, you know, the skin showing, well, you know a lot of times in like some dresses, they're they're too revealing. They just you know, they don't like the way their body looks. But a pant suit, it's like something you can get it cut right. So my advice to Karen, because this is your sister and you want to be next to your sister. You are
the maid of honor. You should be next to your sister. Girl.
Get you a bad makeup artist, get you some pretty jewelry, get you, you know, do something amazing to your hair to make you feel great, because when you are trying on these suits, you're probably going in with no makeup, no hair, and it probably is you're probably looking like I look really boring a plain, but just picture yourself with the suit on, with some heat, some pretty maybe some beautiful heels if you have the freedom of picking your own shoes, some pretty sparkly heels, you know, So
figure out how to like really yes, jig it up. Make that pants suit look bomb on you, you know, get you know, figure out what your look is gonna be. And I'm pretty sure you're gonna look beautiful. And fix your face, put a smile on your face, and be there for your sister because it's not about you. It's about your sister and the beautiful bride Chee is marrying. Yeah. So, although Giselle says there being reasonable, I think it's kind of shady. But hey, it's their wedding, you know, do
what they ask for you to do. I do think you should be there next to your sister, you know, and not you know, outside the chipper. I hope I'm saying it right. But get inside that you inside that chip and get your makeup done, your hair done, put on some pretty heels, and feel really good about yourself. Yes, yes, the end. Take one for the team. Take one for the team, because guess what, one day you're gonna ask
her to take one for you. Okay, So that's that on that Now, I know we have some old school news school. This actually might be a new segment because we got some We did it one way and they do it a different way. Right, Well, I mean I just came across this list um on bus feed. Busfeed is great for for some topic starters and for reminiscent so it's funny. It's a list about boomers. I guess we're are we boomers? You're definitely a boomer. I'm definitely
a boom. Is your boomer? What are we? My parents are boomers? What are we? Generation X? Listen, I'm just zelle. Don't be putting me in a box a boomer? Okay, I'm back in the day, are you? I don't know what we are generation? So there's I think we're Generation X? Are we? Okay? I'll take that all right? Whatever, So people are sharing so boomers Generation X, like old school people like us are sharing things that Generation zers and
millennials will never understand. Right, So, like, is that twenty you know, it's probably twenty five and younger, or maybe thirty and younger. Probably thirty and younger. There's not thinking. All right, let's see, like the internet came about in like nine so many years ago that like what see, I can't do math? Okay, so let's just say younger, y'a don't understand this, but it's but it's so funny.
This is like so okay. So do you remember calling the movie theater to hear the recording with the movie times on it? Yes? Yes, and you had to like sit, oh wait wait, get a sit with a pad and a pencil and right down the times of the movies and the name of the movies, right, and then you had to actually go to the movie theater and stand in line and buy your ticket instead of buying it
online ahead of time. Right, right, Well I still don't do that, right, I mean right, you can still buy your ticket, but it's like you at least know online whether the show was sold out or not, you know, So going to the movies was a whole different thing, right, going so calling but it makes me remember I remember getting dressed and calling the weather man in the morning, calling the time, So weather was was that three nine three six one to one too? That was the weather huh?
And time was um eight four four one too? Once I remember that, yes, And it's so crazy because like back then we didn't even remember. We didn't even have like area codes and stuff. And then oh yeah, then air Hills came out and the area codes came out because it was like so many numbers they needed area codes so crazy. So in d C the area code
is two oh two. I just heard the other day that there that they ran out of two o two area codes and there it's now going to be like five or it's gonna be something from And everybody's like, hell no, I want to keep my two o two right exactly. You know. It would be funny though. I want to get a phone and like just put it by my kids and just see if they even like know what to do with it, like an old school phone when you pick up yeah, right, or a rotary phone.
Oh yes, you don't remember that roll so like it's like a circle. And if you were and if let's say that the number was eight to nine, because our numbers was eight to nine, four, five, nine, six, So the eight, you have to press the eight and take it all the way around to the front and then let it going and then get the to bring it in. Let it go listen. We were struggling back in the day.
Struggle lane, Oh my gosh, you have a good okay. Um, So because we didn't always have cell phones, people could not always get ahold of you, and it was a good thing. Like you could literally like go on about your day and you people would would have to wait to talk to you when you got home and check your answer machine. Yes that was a box, but literally you could everyone around could hear right, and you press it right, they could hear the message I used to get.
I used to make sure I didn't get busted. Like so if I came home with the dude, I was not checking that answering machine because then he could hear what the answer, But all the my messages were right right? Or how about our phone? So if you want to talk tobout, we didn't have a cell phone, so you had to talk on the phone in the house. Yes, but anyone could pick up a phone in another room and listen listen to the conversation you were talking about.
So there was there was a technique to pick up picking up the phone in another room couldn't hear you, so they couldn't hear that somebody else got on the phone. You would have to like slide the phone off, holding down hold the little and then gently pull your finger off of the little. Let me tell you something. We were sneaky back in, so sneaky and you can hear everything. I remember, Oh my gosh, I remember one time I
was on the phone with the boy. I swear I was a little fast, and I think it was in like fourth grade, of course, robbing fast, hot in the pains, And I think I remember I was on the phone with this boy and I said something about ok sorrible. Okay, robbing is laughing. She can't even get it out. I can't wait to know what she said to the fourth grader. I said something about wanting to see his nuts. You said, I want to see your nuts something like that, Okay.
And my father happened to be listening on the phone on No No, not Mr brag and I think he just like all of a sudden interjected. It was like, oh, I think it's time for you to get off the phone now, Oh my god, Okay, speaking of nuts. Okay, so is it me? Is the person that's now dressing Steve Harvey has him in all of these nuts, scrunching pants. I mean the past and two tights I crotch watched
and saw that his nuts are screaming for dear life. Okay, they're like, please, I have to say, whenever I see a picture of Steve Harvey, I quickly scrolled past it. I'm like, I can't look at another picture of Steve Harvey dressed like this. Well, I mean, we love you, Steve, but your pants are too tight, sir, and they're scrunching up your nuts. Okay, and Marjorie wants your nuts to be free the end. Okay, So moving on, do we
have another one? Okay, yeah, we got plenty. I mean, okay, oh gosh, needing to do a report on a topic in school and actually like having to go to the library. I remember when I was in college and I had to go to the library. Yes, yes, absolutely, go to the library and look it up. Look the Dewey decimal system. Yes, you're looking at those cards, Okay, this is where the Okay, I'm looking for this book? Yes, okay, is that dot
nine dot five? Like so then so then you had to go around the library and find that number that was connected to that book, right, And like, how the hell did we figure that out. They taught it in school, just like they taught curs and then I would always like run and get the goddamn library because I was like, I can't figure this out, right, can you? Can you
find this book for me? So what's so funny? So the Internet kind of started, I want to say, I remember the Internet being announced or you know whatever, coming out when I was like maybe a senior in high school, but it was still something that was like what is Yeah, Well, by the time I was a senior in college, that internet was on and popping because I would just purchase my papers online. Okay, now all the time, I just okay, it's just one time. It's just one time to a degree.
I think. I think the statute of limitations is past. You cannot take my degree away from me. But I do recall calling my dad and saying, Dad, I think I was a senior. I was I heard you talk about nuts. Yes, I said, Dad, Can I use your credit card? I gotta buy a paper online because I don't care about this class and I need to I need to finish. Please, thank you. He's probably like, yes, take it, because I want you to get out of college.
At that point, I was literally like, m, how many classes can I take next semester so I don't have to graduate, because you know, like I didn't want to graduate and get a real job, like you know, I think I like two classes. I was taking two classes left in the just the winter whatever, the false and master. So I was. So I was in college for four and a half years, so I think, take this damn card, pay for that paper, yes, and good on up out
of there. I had my mother doctor a funeral program as well, Oh and my coin to get in trouble for Listen, listen, this podcast is over because Robin is telling on herself and it's just team to care. I'm forty two. I don't care. Okay, So my mom like owns a printing company, right so she can, like she she printed the funeral program and her aunt had passed away recently, you know. And I had a paper. I was in this awful international economics class and I had to write a paper. I had an exam and I

Can you just addit it and change the day. And and I'm taking to the teacher. Okay, Grace Angel and the doors children, I will never be ain'ting the date of a cousin or auntie that dad, so you can get out of a test. I'm just saying that. Now, isn't that great,
It's insane. Okay. On that note, people, we're out of here. Okay, do not forget to live your life, either reasonable or shady. And don't all these people that aren't chalenged right now listen. We'll see they can't get away with it now because now they have all these like okay, like buying papers online, like I think the teachers they're somewhere the teachers can like find out put the paper in.
