Um, I gotta be at work tomorrow at 8 o'clock. So I think that's why I'm girl, I've been working eight to fives all this week. I'm not complaining. I am not complaining. This is not a complaint, but it's just like, okay, everything that I need to get done tonight, because I was, you know, Thursday night, sometimes I be going to the movies, baby. I oh, I know.

SPEAKER_09Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_04Um, but yeah, let's get into mental health. Uh, how are you doing today, babe?
SPEAKER_09I am doing great. So I went on a nature walk today. It's a green weight trail that I take. And usually I always have my mom with me, my friend April goes with me, or somebody. But today, everybody was kind of busy. So I was just like, you know what, I'm gonna go. I had that thing on me. I did something new, put on a weighted vest, and I did the damn thing. I burned 675 calories, and my walk was 3.14 miles at about 9,000 steps. No, 8,000 steps. It was amazing. I walked for an hour and five minutes, and after I did my walk, well, I stretched real good. Then I went, I walked because I'm like, okay, I'm gonna have an extra 20 pounds on me, and then I'm gonna have my fanny pack on me with my keys, my weapon, and all that stuff. So I would say I probably had about 22 pounds, 23, 24 pounds on me. Then after that, I did the sauna for 20 minutes, and I just feel so accomplished and proud of myself today. So that feels good. Then I got on the scale this morning and I was lighter than I've been. So that feels great. So mentally I think I'm doing well. Still not working, but I'm still applying, having hope. But I'm in this season of gratitude for where I'm at, even if I don't understand. So I feel good today. You muted, babe. You're muted. Listen, he said, okay, I heard you, and I'm gonna keep talking without muting.
SPEAKER_04He said, I said, I said, I'm so glad. Damn. I nigga, I was talking and talking. I said, oh shit. He said, you're muted, you're muted, you're muted. But no, um, I am so glad that you are you're there.
SPEAKER_05Thank you.
SPEAKER_04I am glad that you're like it's it's like form of clarity, you know what I'm saying? Like, yes, you are not working right now, but you know what you need to do. You know that you are still applying to jobs. Um, we know the job market is shitty, but at the same time, there are, you know, there are still places that are hiring. And like I told you last podcast and podcasters for that, that something is going to happen. It's gonna fall right in your arms.
SPEAKER_05Yes.
SPEAKER_04Um, so yes, it's coming. It's coming, friend. Oh, man. Well, me, I oh God. Swirl opens up next Friday.
SPEAKER_09Um, that's our ribbon cutting.
SPEAKER_04Um, I won't be there in Texas, but I will, I think, once this restaurant, you know, once this brick and mortar does well, because I'm just putting it all up there in the universe. Once this does well, when it does well, when it does well, yes, when it does well, and we start franchising outside of Texas and, you know, in the other states and everything like that, I will definitely have to make some appearances and, you know, make sure I do want to go to the first location. I want to go to the one in McKinney first. Um, and make sure that, you know, it's a smaller location. Like our first location is small, but at the same time, it has enough room for us to do everything that we can and should be able to do. So, yeah. Um, grand opening is actually the 15th with our ribbon, our ribbon cutting is the 14th. So we're excited. We're I mean, I am. I I'm excited. It just feels I don't know.
SPEAKER_09It feels like so when you okay, like for instance, when we said, I've been wanting to do podcasts forever. When we set our asses there in July 24 and we did it, it's one of the things where, okay, it's here. What do I do? All preparation, all these meetings, all it's finally here. So it's like before the storm. And the storm, not necessarily being the bad thing, but all right, you can't turn back. There's no, oh, I don't want to do this. There's no, it's here.
SPEAKER_04It's here, it's here. And it, you know, it's literally tomorrow will be a week away. So, yeah. Um, but yeah, I am the digital strategist for uh the Swirl Network, all of it. So um I'm in, you know, meetings where like we're thinking about branding, thinking about, you know, um, alongside Chips, who is amazing at creating content um for the the franchise. And I just I love her. She's just amazing. And, you know, me and her, and we're working with another group that's going to be um kind of like helping us along along the way with like kind of like the mass content uh on a scale. So it's been good. It's been good. Um, you know, speaking of content, like getting back into, you know, our content with the Feeling Reunion Network and just working a full-time job, it's just had me just like but I'll say this. Um everything that I'm doing now is going to pay off. Um I believe it. I see it. I know I'm going to have days where I'm going to want to throw my fucking phone like at the wall. But I had planned for that. I have, that's why I have a therapist.
SPEAKER_09What do you, outside of therapy, what are some ways that TJ debriefs and kind of decompresses from that? Because, you know, you don't have therapy every day.
SPEAKER_04No, I don't. Um, the way I debrief and, you know, is a lot of times I will sit down in the living room, like lights off, and just think. Just think. Just quietness. You know what I'm saying? Quietness. Meditate. Um, that's one. Uh another, another thing I do is I'll I'll watch some anime. I'll literally watch one of my favorite animes, like X-Men 97. Shout out to the to the Marvel team on that one.
SPEAKER_09Um that one. On that one.
SPEAKER_04Um, but yes, X-Men 97 is so fucking good. Um, shout out to Bo DeMaio. He did the season one to season two before they fired him. Um, so yeah, he um definitely did his his his his big one with those. Um another thing, uh cook. I love cooking. So those are my three things.
SPEAKER_09Like anime, cook, whenever we'll be up on Sunday, he cook his Sunday dinner.
SPEAKER_04Yes. Listen, and the thing about it is, y'all, like I have to change my schedule. Uh, I think I told you about this. So I'll be off on Thursday. I'll be off on certain days, Thursdays and Fridays, and now I have to work Sundays, but that's fine. That is fine. It's just for a season. It's just for a season. Um, but yeah, I'm excited. I'm I'm very excited about the restaurant opening. I'm excited about us. Um episode 97. Um almost to that 100 mark. And we're working with a small product. I do have a little bit more to tell you about the small like production company that we might be working with for our network. So I'm excited about that. Um, but yeah, like I just want to be comfortable. That's it. I don't want to be rich. I don't want to be, you know, wealthy. I want to be comfortable. I want to be able to, for me, you, and the whole team, I want us to be able to go to the fucking grocery store and not blink a fucking eye. Oh when I tell a friend, when I tell you, the fat people always sit up here and say, oh, well, money isn't everything. Bitch, shut the fuck up.
SPEAKER_09Speaking of grocery store, it's so funny you say that. I wanted to show you this one minute and 22 second clip.
SPEAKER_04Not one minute and 22 seconds.
SPEAKER_00Let's go find out. Two liters of chalky milk was just shot at 15 bucks, and the liter jugs are about nine. The various cracker barrel bags of shredded cheese were all 15 bucks each. Four previously frozen chicken breasts will set you back $42. Case you ever wondered why there's so few fat people up north, it's because the cookies are $13 each. 10-pack iced tea juice boxes will set you back $12.29. Apple juice is even more outrageous at $24 for a 4-liter. Cranberry juice is not much better. $14 for a two. Honestly, the craziest thing out of all of it is that a $24-pack no-name bottled water was $32.5 doing their part combat obesity again. We got $9.49 for a two-liter coke. Moving on to produce, we got $9.49 for a bag of onions, a bag of celery stocks for $11.50. You gotta take out a second mortgage on your house and sell your firstborn for a bag of gelapinos because they're $2019. Nobody's getting their potassium up here because bananas are $9.29. And good luck to all the square couples up here because small pineapples tip the scales at $11.30. Each. And I wasn't about to walk around their store for an hour taking pictures without buying something to support the local community. So I grabbed a fancy lunchable, some banana chips, and a couple apples, throw in a couple reusable grocery bags for a souvenir, and the total on that was $18. I also grabbed a three-piece chicken meal for $2099. All in all, I paid about $40 for some heartburn and a couple farts.
SPEAKER_09That was Coke Key 613. I think that's in Alaska somewhere. A bag of shredded cheese. $15. Now I taught I commented on that video. I said the only thing I would be able to afford is the grocery bag. That's the only thing I'm eating. I'm gonna season that bitch up. Soy sauce and make it fry it, put it in the air fryer. A pack of four chicken breasts, $42.
SPEAKER_04Like how Because Alaska, just like Hawaii, they get everything imported because I mean, the temperature, like you can't, like there's no way to raise chickens or anything up there. So that's why the population, who the fuck wants to live in Alaska?
SPEAKER_09And then you know, you talking about six months of darkness. And Alaska is the one place in the United States like that experiences the most domestic violence because of the temperature of the weather.
SPEAKER_04Yep. Yep. That is crazy. I was like, hold on. I was like, Northmark. I was like, that looks familiar. I was like, gotta be Alaska. It has to be Alaska.
SPEAKER_09You know what's crazy too? I have this weird conspiracy theory about Alaska. Once I learned that, like, I think the number was like 78% of the state of Alaska is uninhibited. Just like Dakota, the Dakotas, because at least with Alaska, it's just so fucking cold. And Alaska is that fucking big. Is that an Artica Alaska too? I mean, but you know, let me let me hush. You're talking too much. You're talking too much.
SPEAKER_04You're talking too much. Let me show you. And by the way, love a tree. Listen, let me tell you something. And I'm gonna tell you on this motherfucking podcast, me and Ashley have never had thoughts of hanging ourselves on a fucking tree. We have never had thoughts of killing ourselves. So I'm gonna make that very plain, very simple.
SPEAKER_09I'm vain, honey. I'm not killing myself. That doesn't hurt.
SPEAKER_04Listen. I left you.
SPEAKER_09I got something different. Okay.
SPEAKER_02What he said, he said that fucking cheese was 15 something, bitch. I said oh credit cheese.
SPEAKER_09Girl, uh uh what I think what really floored me outside of the chicken was this is 24 bottle, 24 pack of bottled water, $32. And hell by and as quiet as it's kept, that's gonna be the next big gold riding in America. Because a lot of these lakes that are full are empty. A lot of these rivers are empty, but we'll say that for another day. But water is solidly creeping up. It used to be you can get a grocery store ran 24 packs of water, 16.9 ounce for three, four, maybe five dollars. But now water is six, seven dollars. Okay, I'm watching you.
SPEAKER_04And it doesn't help that we're putting data centers everywhere and it you is using water. That, see, that Utah, I'm looking at you because they approved that fucking data center and now it's taking all that fucking see, I'm telling you, I'm telling you, you And it's let me I was gonna say something real ugly. I'm gonna say this. I I'm gonna say this and we're gonna move on. We I'm gonna we're gonna get into Ashley Corner after I say this. There was a woman on Instagram, I'm gonna send you the fucking video. She says, Earth has a way of protecting itself.
SPEAKER_08Yeah.
SPEAKER_04It's either the earth or us. And the earth is always gonna choose itself. I don't know why. She said, I don't know why people think this is like some crazy conspiracy or anything like that. Earth is always going to protect itself.
SPEAKER_09I need to see that.
SPEAKER_04When I tell you, people are like, oh my god, we have so many storms. We have so many, this weather is just crazy. Bitch, that's a sign. The earth is telling us something. Stop fucking with me.
SPEAKER_09And it ain't just the earth, baby. You gotta think all these black and brown people y'all have at the bottom of these oceans.
SPEAKER_04Hello.
SPEAKER_09All these cities. But a spiritualist went to Lake Lanier with a spirit box. She says she gave the she gave offerings. She said, My name is so-and-so. I'm, you know, out of respect, I'm just here to talk and see what it was so many spirits trying to talk to her. And you and and some of the things that was coming through on her spirit box was black people speaking Tutanese. And if you don't know what Tutanese is, it's a black American language that black Americans used to spoke to each other. And I'm not finna go into what it is because if it's only on need-to-know basis, and it's only for black American people to practice. However, karma, people were speaking to her. People were saying, hey, I didn't fall in here. I got drowned. Or hey, I was at home cooking something, all in no, I see water because the white people drown them out. So outside of Mother Nature, yes, that is about I would say 50. The other 50% is spiritual. It's spiritual. And we we don't fight against the physical, we fight against the periods of principalities. And like I've been saying, and like TJ told me to hey baby, until retribution is coming. And if you know, you know.
SPEAKER_04Listen, I'm telling you.
SPEAKER_09Chatter, chatter, let me hush.
SPEAKER_04Well, let's get into Ashley's Corner, boo.
SPEAKER_09Okay, so Ashley's Corner, we're we're changing pace. I think this is the first one where it's just gonna be a little it's gonna be sad. So I wanna play you guys two clips. This first clip is from a young man by the name of Mason's Rain Mason Rainforest out of Mississippi, and I want you guys to hear what this young man has to say.
SPEAKER_01I'm probably not gonna get any views on this, but I don't care. This is not my normal content, but my cousin, my stepcousin, needs justice. That black woman that was found hanged. I'm kind of worried about getting this video taken down. But that black woman that was found deceased on Remembrance Road was my stepcousin Tasia. I don't think that they've officially confirmed it yet, but I talked to her mama today and they pretty much have told her that it was her. They just had to officially confirm it. But this was not a self. This was murder. I need anyone who wants justice for anyone to speak up about this, please. I am worried to death that her mama is never gonna get the closure that she deserves. This is disgusting, and nobody deserves that.
SPEAKER_07A black woman was found hanging from a tree in Mississippi. Let's get into it. So Jackson police officers discovered the unidentified woman's body on the evening of August 3rd, and it was in the backyard of a vacant home. All right, and this occurred in Mississippi. Now, they were responding to a call just after 9 p.m., and authorities said they located the victim, but have not yet released her name, and they have not said whether they suspect foul play is involved here. Now, Hines County coroner Jeremiah Howard confirmed that the woman was hanging from a tree and that her body is now being transferred to the Mississippi State Medical Examiner's office for a full autopsy. The autopsy will determine the official cause and manner of death, but for now, investigators are not saying much with no additional details released to the public as of this news report. Now, this is not the first incident either. Less than a year ago in September 2025, 21-year-old Delta State University student Trey Reid was found hanging from a tree on campus. Now, state officials ruled his death a suicide, but his family are pushing back, saying that they're not buying it and they're still fighting for transparency. Around the same time, another man named Corey was found hanging in Vicksburg, and authorities also ruled that case a suicide as well. For now, Jackson police and the coroner's office are treating this latest discovery as an active investigation with the autopsy results expected to shed more light on what happened to this woman. This is Bonique with the Black Belt Daily signing out.
SPEAKER_09That was permanent Black Belt Babe. Um, and then there was another incident that we have to discuss.
SPEAKER_08Um I'm going to scream it from the rooftops until people start fucking listening to me. I just saw a tweet and it was a video of a little black girl going to a slumber party with white girls, and they know she's epileptic. They know that she has mental health issues, they get her black out drunk, black out drunk, and start filming her, making fun of her, bullying her, beating her. And there was no evidence of this until these girls started to decided to post that. And I know the reason they decided to post it was to make fun of this girl, but instead it gave evidence for this fucking case. And I say this to say, all this to say, my mom was always right when she told me not to hang out with that many white girls. She was right. She was protecting me. She is a white woman, she knows how it goes. She knows how it goes. And I keep saying the same thing over and over again because we have to protect our little black children, black girls and black boys. With the Nolan Wells. Case. It's both of the like we, I know, I know, I know, and it's not victim blaming. It's not, it's that you have to have discernment. You have, you have to. And I've I know I've said this so many fucking times, but watch I could not get through that video. I could not finish that video.
SPEAKER_09So here we are, yet again, another day, another case, another black life. And the I don't know where the incident of the young black girl happened, but like at this point, no, you cannot be the only black person, and you are not finna go. I'm not sending my child, I'm not sending nobody's black child to where they're gonna be one of the only. That had that shit has to stop. It's it's it's getting to be too much, and it's just like, what else do y'all need to see? I uh uh and it's just like have we forgot our roots? Like, I know listening to my parents talk, especially like my dad and older, older members of my family, white people weren't even allowed in their house. So again, you know, I'm not saying that there's nothing wrong with being friends with a white person, but as far as in traveling, going, being the only, no. If you want to go eat a little egg roll at chilies with your white friend, cue. If you want to go to the gym with your white friend, that's cute. But as far as in going on a trip and you're the only Negro out of the side, no. And stop sending your fucking children. No. And then this incident with this young black girl who was found hanging in the back of a fucking vacant house in Mississippi, in the Mississippi. I'm I'm I have so many thoughts. I just, I really don't know where to begin and how to articulate myself, so I'm gonna leave it alone for now. But I need my black people in Mississippi to be very fucking careful. Y'all need to stay vigilant. It is clear they are hunting us for sport down there. Um, y'all need to use a buddy system. More than two people need to have y'all location. I don't know. I I don't know what to say. Like, I don't know what to say.
SPEAKER_04It's real crazy that, you know, in a state like Mississippi, where Jackson, Mississippi is predominantly black.
SPEAKER_09First of all, let's be clear. It's not just Jackson. Per capita, Mississippi is one of the blackest states outside of North Carolina. Mississippi is a majority black state, but white powered. Okay?
SPEAKER_04That part. Um, because it's been redlined, it's been, it's been taken hostage by, again, what you said, white power. They have um every time there's an election, the polls get changed, the polls get closed, the, you know, the it it it is it is a technique that they have been using with states like Mississippi and Alabama for year in Louisiana for years, years and years. Decades, decades. Um but for Mississippi, and I'm only speaking about Mississippi, black people, y'all have got to be aware. You have got to be aware of your surroundings. Mississippi, again, is a predominantly black state. You have to be with your you gotta be with your people. You have got to be with your people. The level of it should come to no surprise. When you get that inkling in your soul, in your head, in your mind, in your body, that means it's time to fucking go. I am telling you, because I've had that. I have had that many times. I've told Ashley about there several times where I was like, oh bitch, I got to go. I gotta get out of here.
SPEAKER_09Yeah.
SPEAKER_04And as far as going on trips, no. With them, it's a fuck no. The last trip because here's the thing. Every time I have been on a trip, it is always a fucking problem. It is always something, it's something that shifts. Not that first day, but that second and third day, it's it's something something shifts. The energy shifts. And black people, you have to understand that might be your white best friend always. I don't want to hear none of that bullshit. I really don't. Because at the end of the day, and I know a lot of people are gonna hate this and what I say about this, whatever, at the end of the day, you are still black. When they get drunk, when they get coked out, or whatever the fuck they be doing, they don't think about you. They don't have empathy, they don't have they all they see is a nigga. That's it. I'm sorry. Because, you know, and they think that shit is funny. They think it's funny. So, you know, for all the people out there, like, oh, my friends would never do that to me. Okay, well. You sure? You I'm I'm just saying, sure about that? You're sure about that? Um, it's always a coon in the bunch, you know? So at the end of the day, black people, Mississippi, Georgia, Louisiana, here in Tennessee, um, Georgia, um, protect yourself. When you feel that energy is off, baby, it's time to fucking go. It's time to get up, it's time to get in your car and get the fuck out of Dodge. Because that's exactly what the fuck I did.
SPEAKER_09That's it.
SPEAKER_04All right. Um, you have anything else for Ash's Corner, babe?
SPEAKER_09No, that was it.
SPEAKER_04I know, it's just it's it's at this point, parents have got to start being fucking parents. I would never, I would never let my niece, my nephews, oh, what is it going to wait a minute. Hold on. You d you the only one? Oh fuck no. I'm calling my brother immediately. Immediately. Hey, I don't think it's a good idea. Especially, you know, black little boys, black little girls, but especially black little girls, when I tell you that shit, that video, I actually couldn't even watch the whole thing.
SPEAKER_09I she refuses. I refuse. I I can't I I get so tired of seeing black trauma. And then 70% of the time that I witness black trauma, if I'm not consuming it in media that I choose to watch, which that's very delicate for me, I don't even get a choice to say whether I want to see it or not. Because people get off on seeing black people. And to me, that's a form of energy hard energy harvesting. Like not, I don't want to see that shit.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Yeah. They get off. There, there is a majority of um the I'm saying but sorry, God, Jesus.
SPEAKER_09I didn't even drink soda today. I'm sorry, y'all.
SPEAKER_04That was just No, you but that was that was good. Um, but no, it it it is a form of energy harvesting, and you know, people was like, oh my god, black people can be racist. No, we can't. Black people, black people don't black people don't have that type of power. We don't have that type of power. So, yeah. Um, it's just watching that video and just it it's weird. It's it's fucking weird.
SPEAKER_09To say you're gonna kill this child.
SPEAKER_04Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER_09Like you said earlier, that's demonic as hell.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Yeah. That's that's I'm telling you, majority of them think like that. And that's why I said niggas, niggas gotta be on P's and Q's all the time. All the fucking time. Um but yeah. Let's move on, boo.
SPEAKER_09I'm gonna let you take this, cuz baby, we gotta talk politics.
SPEAKER_04Let me see.
SPEAKER_09Let me cue my book.
SPEAKER_04So let's talk politics. Um Michigan Senate primary results uh Abdul El Saeed. I hope that said that right. I hope I said it right.
SPEAKER_05That sounds good.
SPEAKER_04Um, he won the Democratic primary for Michigan.
unknownWoo!
SPEAKER_04He beat out, unless this is crazy, he beat out Haley Stevens, who APAC spent almost 70 million dollars. 70 million dollars for him to beat like Gotcha, nigga. This is the same woman, this is the same woman, guys, that said she has dreams about Israel, about giving money to Israel.
SPEAKER_09Well, you could dream your ass over there because you ain't win shit. Bye.
SPEAKER_04The fact that we are sitting here, the fact that we are sitting here and people are like, have y'all not woke up yet? Have y'all not woke up? Because common sense would tell anybody, why the fuck is the United States of America giving money to another country that has a universal healthcare system and we don't? That's one that's all I need. That's all I need. I don't give a shit about anything else. I don't give a shit. Yes. Palestinians, all of that, they need they need to have their own, they need to get their land back. But what I'm saying right now is y'all y'all sit up here voting, voting for these people that take APAC money. Aren't you ashamed of yourself? 727,000 people voted for Haley Stevens.
SPEAKER_09Crazy work.
SPEAKER_04Crazy work and still came up short, bitch. Still came up short. And they scared of him because he was actually born here. So that means he can run for president.
SPEAKER_05Uh oh. I'm just I'm looking out.
SPEAKER_04See, they were upset with Madonna, but see, Madani wasn't born here. So that means, you know, he can't, you know, run for president. But this one right here, El Said. He can run for president, baby.
SPEAKER_09El Said gonna muck around and be like this on their ass.
SPEAKER_02I ain't gonna have no motherfucker.
SPEAKER_05Take mine.
SPEAKER_09Please. And I won't.
SPEAKER_04But uh yeah, um, he won.
SPEAKER_09It's best to leave. If Madame come on, he will win.
SPEAKER_05Oh yeah, most definitely.
SPEAKER_09The millennial vote, and just the Democratic vote. And honestly, like I said, I don't align myself with any political party, but I tend to vote more left-leaning just because I'm a nigga. But no, just mostly just because I just feel like it aligns with what I need because you know, the Republicans promised a good economy. This is the best economy ever's been. And motherfuckers spending 40, spending $500 to $600 in a grocery store and not even getting two bulls, but two bags worth full of stuff. TJ said the realest thing to me today. He said, I don't want to be rich. I want to be comfortable. I want it so that me and my team go to the grocery store and not have to sweat, not have to add shit up. And I said, you know, goddamn what that is the realest shit you ever said.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. I want to make sure that anybody that I am working with that we are working together, I never, never want to see them go to a fucking grocery store and have to blink a fucking eye. I want to make sure they shit is paid for. Um Yeah. Um, so that was in that was in Michigan um here in the Democratic primaries. Um Marquita Brasshaw won. Um Marquita! Yeah, she's she from where?

First of all, and I'm significantly older than them, but like I say, big of them all the time because I'm so proud of just this lane that they curated in to see two black content creators with that magnitude together. That's that when you think of streaming, you think of them too, plus a few others, but they're the big part of the big three, okay?
SPEAKER_05Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_09I love the fact that they still could collab with each other because I've seen their other ones just like their other little promos or whatever, but it's been a long time coming. They're reuniting after a few months, and you know, Kai has his streamers university, and he's doing big things in his fashion. Then you got Speed, who's like a world traveler at this point. See it. And I'm so proud of the Miyam Black Men.

SPEAKER_09Um and you know, they finna get paid a bag of oh yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_04And the fact and the fact that they teamed up, you know, two of the biggest streamers in the world, really. Um that's crazy. Two black men. Two black men. Oh.
SPEAKER_05Well.
SPEAKER_04But shout out to Costa Net and I show Speed uh for everything, and you know, congratulations to Casa Net on Streamer University and uh Speed for his um I would say visionary and traveling the world and all the African countries. Um so yeah, shout out to Speed and uh Casa Net. Uh speaking of just in the forefront, right? This is you know, take it how you ever like take it how you want to take it. But um how should I introduce this?
SPEAKER_09Say it was on the card. Because I literally, when I heard the news of this story, and I'm gonna explain my stance as to why.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, go ahead, boo.
SPEAKER_09Okay, I'm about to go get a cloud matcha.
SPEAKER_04So Perez Hilton, um, here, I'm gonna I'm gonna pull it up. Um, this is from NBC News, a source.
SPEAKER_09Um You make me so sick, I swear.
SPEAKER_04So Perez Hilton hospitalized after reports he live streamed. Self-harm, sheriff's officials say um the blogger returned to his native Miami, to his native Miami home, I guess, after leaving, living in Las Vegas. Um, I'm gonna read a little bit of this. Perez Hilton was receiving medical care Wednesday. The celebrity blogger and podcaster's team and family said after police responded to his Miami area home following reports that he appeared to engage in self-harm during the live stream. A spokesperson for the Miami Day Sheriff's Office told NBC News that deputies responded to reports Tuesday night of someone who was live streaming acts of self-harm on social media. So here's the thing. Here's my stance on it. Perez Hilton has been probably one of the most diabolical um people in media. I remember when he was using his fucking platform in the other in the early 2000s and was sending new pictures and of certain celebrities and you know trying, I mean, it got so bad. He was always talking about Brendy Spears, he was always talking about, you know, just things that celebrities wanted to keep under wrap. This person stayed in their business.
SPEAKER_09And again, that's every media personality, but he just was detestable. To sit up here, first of all, y'all for for the babies that are listening, anybody under the age of 25 who's like who's Perez Hilton, Perez Hilton is a big snuff of love kids looking ass bitch. He's skinny as hell now. But he used to be a real big snuff of luffy kids, grimace looking motherfucker that was fucking evil. He was around, I remember him when I was in like middle school, elementary to middle school. I was off to e-news and shit. Anybody like a white girl star on the ass. I remember when Amy Winehouse died, he was crafting jokes about her funeral. When Heath Ledger died, he literally used that same fucking platform to make t-shirts and sell t-shirts that say why it couldn't have been Britney Spears. When Misha Barton was going through a drug, um, she was going, she was addicted to drugs at the time.
SPEAKER_05Yeah.
SPEAKER_09And I don't remember what it was. I just remember because I used to watch the OC and I was like, oh, that's my girl Misha. And she was going through. And he was like, you know, that's why she's ugly and skinny, and the bitch needs to die. He used to wish death on a lot of people. So now that's visiting your front door. Those are those demons and those seeds that you sold almost 20 fucking years ago. And you think because the bitch done got skinny. I see, as a fat woman, I'm gonna say this. You fat motherfuckers who was evil when y'all was fat, just because you're skinny, that shit is gonna go away. You wish death on a lot of people and you laughed at a lot of people. So I don't give a fuck. The only people that I give a fuck about were, I think he has like a lot of adopted children. I pray to God they didn't see that because that's traumatic. But when it came to him, beautiful gowns. Now I'm not I talk, I'm a lot of things. I talk a lot of shit. I have never wished death on a celebrity or talking about somebody when they're down, as far as in drugs or life circumstances or mental breakdowns. And it's like, bitch, you have mental health problems. He will talk about Britney Spears so fucking bad when she was having her mental health crisis.
SPEAKER_05Right.
SPEAKER_09Now it's one thing to talk about you doing some bullshit or some, you know, you're a criminal, you're a pedophile, or you just and you just say in fool. But talk about somebody when they're literally addicted to drugs, when they're dying, like if I'm not mistaken, I no, that was Neil Patrick Harris who made that annual wine house cake when she died. That's why I don't fuck with his ass either. But you were an evil bitch. This is just your chickens coming home to roost. And again, I don't wish nothing bad on you. I you know, I I pray you heal, but the North never forgets. So beautiful gowns.
SPEAKER_04And with that, um Because when I saw this, I was like, okay, like, is this a stunt? Because at the end of the day, that's what when I saw this, I was like, it's Perez Hilton. Like, you know, he like we know. Millennials, older millennials know Perez Hilton was a nasty piece of shit.
SPEAKER_09He was.
SPEAKER_04He was a nasty piece of shit. People, he would get sued and sued and sued, and he would just keep on and keep on. And it's just like.
SPEAKER_09I remember the shit. He, matter of fact, and I don't really remember him ever talking about black celebrities like that, but the shit he was saying about Rihanna when the whole incident happened.
SPEAKER_05Yep.
SPEAKER_09No, the incident was fucking wild.
SPEAKER_04Yep.
SPEAKER_09He I remember reading something on like media takeout that he said about, oh, he should have got the other eye. Just a bitch. Just like catch me outside. Like when I see you, bitch, is me.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, and you and you can't expect people to feel sorry. Like, you know what I'm saying? I don't want anything, you know. I don't wish death. I don't wish, like, I don't, I don't wish death on, you know, people, right? Um actually, fuck that. I think I have. Here's the thing. People like Perez Hilton, karma will always get you. That tongue is very strong. Very strong. What you put out into the motherfucking world is what you get back.
SPEAKER_09Monis, sorry. When you do clownery, the clown can bite.
SPEAKER_04And that's exactly what it did. So I hope, I hope. At the end of the day, actually I don't. Um, it it's just at this point, I hope the doctors help them. Um, but probably after this, since it it looks like it was a psychotic or mental breakdown, um, you probably need to go get some help. You know, all that shit that you was talking about everybody else. Yeah, you need to go, you need to go into a plat, you need to go into a place like that. How about that? Since you were talking so much shit about Britney Spears and her psychotic and mental um status.
SPEAKER_09I mean, he talked about Paris Hilton, Nicole Ritchie. Mm-hmm. I remember shit he was saying about Amanda Bonds.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_09My girl Lizzie Lohan, like.
SPEAKER_04It's everybody. Every every celebrity that you could have think uh could you that you could have thought of in the the early mid-2000s, he has said something about. He has used. Yeah.
SPEAKER_09Am I remembering that correctly?
SPEAKER_04I think he tr I think he, I don't know if it was Miley Cyrus, but I know it was something. It was it was a celebrity. Yeah. Let's, yeah. Oh my god.
SPEAKER_09I feel like maybe my mind is making that up, but let me see. Uh yeah. Gossip gossip blogger Prince Hilton and Mile Cyrus share a contentious history headlined by a major 2010 controversy when she was 17 years old, where the blogger posted a provocative photo of the singer drawing severe backlash and public condemnation for Cyrus. Yeah. She was 17 years old, she was a fucking child.
SPEAKER_04Beautiful gowns.
SPEAKER_09I knew I remembered that.
SPEAKER_04Beautiful gowns. That's all I gotta say. Nope. At that point, no. Bitch, fuck you. Beautiful gowns. Get the help that you need, that you have always talked about other people. Like at that point, like, what? We're done. We're done. Like, we gotta stop. Like, he's like, well, but he did at the end of the day, the shit that he has done to people, you don't think that shit's gonna come back to you? That's why I be telling people, you out here doing, you out here living your life being evil to people, and you don't think that shit's gonna come back one day on you? You don't think that's gonna come back? You just don't know the time, but it's gonna come back. It's going to come back and centerfold.
SPEAKER_09And sometimes it don't even come back to you. We can come back to people who have nothing to do with the incident like you.
SPEAKER_04It can come back to your children, come back to your mom, your dad, your cut, your siblings.
SPEAKER_09Yeah.
SPEAKER_04So you have to be careful how you treat people.
SPEAKER_09I swear to people. It's the universe. Life and death.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. So again, beautiful gowns, like Ashley said. Um, let's move on.
SPEAKER_09To another you know. I'm gonna read the article and then I'm gonna hear thoughts, and then I'm gonna get it.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_09Okay, I'm getting this from Fox Five Atlanta. Reality TV Sydney Starr arrested for child sex assault in Georgia, and this was um from August the 3rd, 2026. Reality television personalities. Did you hear that beep? Okay, it was like a test beep. I'm sorry. Sorry, guys. Reality television personality Sydney Starr was arrested in Hakeville on Sunday following allegations of sexual assault involvement in minor. Authorities booked the transgender model into Fulton County jail on multiple severe felony charges, including aggregated child molestation. And I'm gonna say this. This does not give y'all the guys to be homophobic or transphobic because the fact that she's transgender, this is why I hate Fox, but this was the most detailed news report. Her being transgender has nothing to do, but this is just the angle that Republican or right-leaning media is gonna use because heterosexuals rape and molest children all the fucking time. So let's be clear. In the churches, your dads, your cousins. Let's not do that. It's not because she was transgender that she did it. She's just a fucking sick off. And she's not a he, she's a she, okay? Hayville police confirmed the case has been handed over to district prosecutors while additional details remain withheld to protect the minor. I read that right. Okay. Sidney Favors, who also goes by Sydney Starr, was taken into custody following an incident at NBC Suites in the 3400 block of International Boulevard. Police charge Favors with sodomy, sexual battery against a child under the age of 16, and aggravated child molestation as a result of the investigation. Favors remain held at the Fulton County Jail as authorities move forward with the case. Her next court appearance is August 25th in Fulton County Superior Court. According to law enforcement, the invest the investigation has officially been turned over to the Fulton County District Attorney's Office for Prosecution. Specific details surrounding the allegations have not been made public by law enforcement. Because this case involves a juvenile, no additional information will be released from our agency. The Hateville Police Department said in this statement to Fox Found Atlanta. Favors is a transgender model who built a notable career in entertainment according to TMZ. The television personality has appeared on several programs, including Baddies, Baddies ATL, Star Empire. And yeah, that was the end of the article. Also, it says here that Sydney Favors will not be getting any bond. So before I share my thoughts, what are your thoughts?
SPEAKER_04Um my thoughts are um She need she needs to stay in there. I mean, there there's no doubt about it. If this is report is true and accurate and everything like that, it's disgusting. It's disgusting. It's it's it's a point of you're you're grown as fuck. You are grown as fuck. You are a fucking adult. You know exactly what you did, what you are doing. There is no excuse. No motherfucking excuse. Keep her motherfucking ass in there. If the reports are true, keep her motherfucking ass in there. That's it. There's no there's no, well, you know, no, I don't give a fuck about drugs, I don't give a fuck about nothing. You had that already in your mind. You had that in your mind what you was gonna do. And that's for anybody. That's for anybody that sits there and thinks that texting or FaceTiming a fucking child and talking sex, like it's just oh, the thing that kills me is they if they choose to go the angle of, oh, she didn't, bitch, yes, you did.
SPEAKER_09I can listen to somebody talking about, oh, he's 20. Oh, she's 30. You know when somebody opens their mouth and that when they speak, that's a child or not. You knew.
SPEAKER_04So I got this from um Why Entertainment, which is Yahoo Entertainment, um, is new details. Sydney Star remains in custody after Georgia authorities, see, and you fucked around to play it in Georgia too, arrested the reality TV.
SPEAKER_09They don't play about nothing. Okay.
SPEAKER_04They don't play about shit.
SPEAKER_09Nothing.
SPEAKER_04Um, authorities arrested the reality TV personality on serious criminal charges. Newly released police records provide more details. Police said an open condom fell from Star's pocket during a pat down after her arrest.
SPEAKER_09Jesus Devontae Christ.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Yeah, she's gonna be in there. Yeah.
SPEAKER_09Especially if there's DN oh my God.
SPEAKER_04According to police, the victim was younger than 16 years old. Oh, yeah, bitch. You yeah, you in there. You in there. This ain't got nothing. Let me tell you something. This ain't got nothing to do with trans or anything like that. You're a grown-ass adult. You are grown as fuck, and you knew what you were fucking doing.
SPEAKER_09And then I just feel like you did, and then it's just like, and this isn't trying to like justify anything, even though you're not an A-list or I would say influencer at the very most. Let's spill tea. When Baddies first became a thing, that first fucking season, when Judy, even though y'all don't fucking like Judy, Judy says she was a weirdo back then when she exposed herself to her. Cause Sydney Starr, you know, her being transgender, she's one of the trans sisters that has her penis still. And Judy said, I am uncomfortable. Well, I well, no, she's not. I think Darius McCurry paid for that's not a voice, I don't think she had it. But at the time, she had it. Judy was like, hey, I'm uncomfortable. Natalie thought the shit was funny. Sydney thought the shit was funny. Everybody, ha ha ha because they don't like Judy, and oh, you know, then bitch, you could leave. But even before that, when you sit out there and lie on Cheeky and destroy somebody's fucking career, who've been a fucking weirdo and a liar. You've been weird, Sydney. So yeah, if you if you, you know, you're innocent to proven guilty, but it's solid evidence is stacking up against you, bitch. Put our put her under the jail, throw away the key. Throw away, swallow that fucking key.
SPEAKER_04And I love how people sit up here and, you know, they'll they'll talk about like, it's, and I know some people are listening, like, they don't ever talk about, you know, no, no, we talk about every fucking thing. We talk about every fucking thing on this podcast, whether it has to do with politics, whether it has to do with celebrities, whether it has to do with just blackness in general. Because we have to, at the end of the day, as black people, we have got to hold our black people and black people of all types accountable for what the fuck they're doing. And that one right there, like you said, Judy said she was a fucking weirdo. I thought, when I when I first, when I first got introduced to Sydney Star, I think we might have been Love and Hip Hop. I I thought she was weird. I thought she was weird. I I really did. I thought she was weird. Um even when I Sydney Starr, TV personality, live love and hip hop accused. Yeah, love and hip hop, yep. Um yeah, 37 years old.
SPEAKER_09Um I mean it's just so I've been knowing Sydney Starr for a very long time. I knew her as Alicia Keys asked her in the underground in the ballroom scene. Because I used to watch different ballrooms and shit. Like I I used to watch her and I used to watch Amaya Scott. And a lot of the times, like, you know, I will watch, you know, the whole like, oh, fish, she's fish, she looked. But I used to love just to watch how they walk, the looks, the action. And a lot, and and let's be clear, I really want to go to one in person, but a lot of people don't understand you get put onto a lot of dope ass music at the bottom of the scene. A lot of shit that's underbranded.
SPEAKER_04Of course, yes.
SPEAKER_09So she used to go by Alicia Key's escada. I've been knowing Sydney Starr for a very long time. When she came back to the scene, I think I saw her in Empire. No, no, no, no. Or was it Star?
SPEAKER_04It might have been Star.
SPEAKER_09Okay. But I remember, yeah, Love Hip Hop. So around maybe like eight to nine years ago when I saw her in the okay. But I remember watching her as like middle high school because I used to watch the bottom online all the time or find clips. Because even when I um watched polls, I was like, Dominique Jackson, what about she used to go by Tyra Alore. So it's like I know these things, you know what I'm saying? But Sydney Starr has been around for a very, very, very long time. But it's just like, girl, you're close to the 40. You know better. You fucking know better.
SPEAKER_04I would say this. Um, when I found out about Sydney Starr from Love and Hip Hop, they were like, oh, that's that's the that's the that's that's the lady that lied on Chingis. Lied on Chingy. Oh shit. That's her. I was like, okay, no, it made it.
SPEAKER_09When serious first became a thing, and you could listen to radio stations that's not local to you.
SPEAKER_05Yeah.
SPEAKER_09I remember listening to that.
SPEAKER_04Oh boy. So I tell you. Well, at the end of the day, just like we said with Perez Hilton, beautiful gowns. In the words of Aretha Franklin, beautiful gowns. Because I I don't know what more to say, Ashley.
SPEAKER_09I just cannot stop thinking about Jennifer Lewis. Okay, Retha. Okay, Reef. But you know, it's Rhea. Okay, Reeth. Look. You know. I didn't know what was the time, but I knew I knew what the fuck she was talking about. That was probably one of the that's probably one of my favorite interviews that T.S. Madison did with that whole interview is just you couldn't turn away from it. It was amazing.
SPEAKER_04Because she is so like, Jennifer Lewis is such an icon, like, and the fact that she she just don't take no shit. And I want to be like that, like when we grow up. Like, I just want to be like, and you know what that motherfucker said to me.
SPEAKER_09I remember the first time I remember seeing Jennifer Lewis, I saw her. One of my first earliest roles, too, is two roles. When she played Melvin Blue's mom in the two miniseries, but also when she played Lucky's Mom Poet of Justice, Lucky, put the fucking cigarette out. Love her down.
SPEAKER_04We love you, Jennifer Lewis. And if you ever hear us talking on a podcast, listen, you are more than welcome, more than motherfucking welcome to come on the black paradigm. Because we're gonna have a fucking good time.
SPEAKER_09Absolutely.
SPEAKER_04Have them flowers ready, baby.
SPEAKER_09Um a whole pasture.
SPEAKER_04A whole past. Um, this is all you, baby. Uh Quiet on the Creek.
SPEAKER_09This whole new quiet on the, and I'm I'm switched back into serious mode, and I'm talking to young, but I've been seeing adults doing this shit too. But this quiet on the creek trend shit is going to get you guys killed. I seen a video that disturbed me two days ago. This young lady lives in an apartment complex. You see a young man coming down steps and then another young man falling behind you. They do a fist bump together. And you hear the song Quiet on the Creek playing in the background in the video. But the next second, he gives like a he hits the other dude's ass in a loving, fucking type of way. But you outed this boy. And through my research and through our, because one of the boys you can visibly see, the other one who, and I talked to one of my other gay home boys. He was like, oh, he's clearly on the DL because you can't see his face on a wing camera, but people can probably associate who it is because of who the other guy was, but he was completely hidden. So you outed this man, and supposedly he has a living girlfriend, children, and he's on the DL. And I don't like outing people just is not I I don't understand from muff people are DL for a reason. Niggas will literally kill you, and y'all know how big that culture is in the black culture specifically. Stop fucking doing it. And again, that wasn't your business to tell. Yep. I mean, you and and I feel bad because and whatever you sneaking, geeking, and freaking and doing, that is your business. I have no, I do feel bad if, and again, we don't know if he's on the DL. He probably just could have been covered up that day. Because again, we don't know everything. But as an onlooker, you post a video of these two people that you don't know, and you just shh quiet on the creek. Like that shit is gonna get y'all popped. It's not cute. Mind y'all's business.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, y'all gotta mind y'all's motherfucking business because there are certain people.
SPEAKER_09It was um um, it was the little boy, and I think he's a kid. And baby, listen to your auntie. Like, just don't do that. Take it down. He posted video of these two foot two football players, I guess, in his high school. It was like behind the lockers, like end of the day, kissing and shit, and said, I couldn't find it, so I think the video did get taken down.
SPEAKER_04But like, I'm just like Y'all gonna get y'all motherfucking asses whooped. Like, I don't listen. Yeah, and and you know what? That that goes to a place that I just wanted to talk about too. Um, y'all streaming outside in the public, this kick or whatever y'all talking about, what y'all stream on, people running around here saying what the fuck they want to uh talk about, talking about, oh, you're just a nigga or you're you're a fag and all of this bullshit. It's going to get y'all killed. There is this dude, he calls himself the Mexican Chuck the Builder. Walking around downtown. I don't know what city he's in. I know it's not Nashville, but he is walking around town just causing chaos, right? One video, he was, you know, talking to these, I think it's Austin. I think the city that he's in is Austin. But he was running around downtown calling people niggas and, you know, uh the other racial slurs and the other groups or whatever, um, talking about you ain't gonna do nothing, everything like that. We live, we live in a culture right now where everybody wants clout. Everybody wants some type of clout. Everybody wants to be famous, everybody wants to be in the spotlight. What do you think is going to happen when you get into the spotlight? Everything and everybody is going to know everything about you. So, do you want to be in the spotlight for doing something fucking stupid, or do you want to be in the spotlight for doing something that's actually worth doing? Because I just feel like this culture is just a I don't know, man. It it's at this point we really gotta look deeper because it's it's really mental. It's really mental. You got certain people that are running around with their phones, with cameramen, right? With their homies, streaming live, walking from bar to bar, walking across the street, causing chaos. It's gonna be a day where You people, streamers, people that are on kick, and it's I've I've only seen it a lot on kick, but I think that's the major platform that y'all stream on or whatever. But y'all gotta protect y'all selves. You can't go around saying whatever the fuck you want to say and not getting your ass whooped. I mean, it's ridiculous. At this point, it's disgusting. And if you want to end up like Chud the Fairy, I'm sorry, Chud the Builder, um. I mean, go ahead. Because every time y'all stream, when y'all get on kick, that shit is saved to a fucking cloud, my nigga. That shit. When it's on the end, that's how, that's how listen, listen. That's how people gonna get caught. That's how people gonna get caught. When they wanna come get you, all they gotta do is bust down your fucking door. When you don't want to cooperate, bitch, it's time. You're going to jail. You're going to prison.

And he asking the question, talking about why what why are you doing this? Chill, bro, chill. It's always chill, bro, when you do something evil, and they just they're just reciprocating. They're just they're just giving it back to you.

SPEAKER_05Oh. Look, what is he ever saying?
SPEAKER_04Oh, but yeah, that's all I gotta say about y'all kick motherfuckers. Like, y'all stay in the house. Stay in the house because you're gonna get your ass whooped. Like, you're gonna get your ass whooped. You're gonna run across the wrong or multiple wrong motherfuckers one day. It is not gonna be pretty. So if you're gonna stream, just be in the vicinity of your house. Um speaking of streaming and uh want to become famous, um tick TikTok closes the Nashville offices. TikTok.
SPEAKER_09Sorry now.
SPEAKER_04Fuck this. She said, fuck this. She said, I don't even want to hear about this shit. TikTok closes Nashville offices after two years. Um exclusively.
SPEAKER_09After they made such a big fucking deal about shit.
SPEAKER_04So, um, what is it? I don't want to sign up for this. Leave me alone, please. Um Damn. You know what? I, you know, Tennessee. No, I don't want to sign up for nothing. Leave me the fuck alone. Okay, TikTok to close Nashville office, lay off all staff. The company is shuttling the office two years after launching its Midtown location in the city. Um, and this is from Billboard. Uh, TikTok is set to close this Nashville office uh in Midtown's Moore building and lay off all of its Nashville staff. Billboard has confirmed. Um, describe now. Y'all always want some money. Damn, just give me the report. Hold on, maybe NBC. TikTok closing this national office on laying off all the steps. Okay, cool. We have decided to close our national office to streamline our operations and better align our teams for long-term growth. We remain fully committed to providing secure, safe, and positive experiences for the 200 million Americans that create, discover, and connect with what they love on TikTok, a company spokesperson said in a statement. I'm gonna be real with y'all. Ever since TikTok got bought by Oracle, shit ain't been the same. Shit has not been the same ever since this administration has took over. TikTok has not been the same. They are, I want to believe, I don't know this for sure, but I believe that TikTok is losing subscribers. Because I I don't have TikTok anymore. Now you might be able to find me in my old videos and stuff like that, but I'm not on TikTok. I delete, like I literally deleted my account. Ever since I seen that when TikTok was gonna get bought by Oracle, Oracle was planning to buy like 80% of TikTok. I said, bitch, buy. I'm done. I'm done. You can't have no free reign. TikTok was probably the only app that had free reign to talk about whatever you want to talk about, to say whatever you wanted to say. And when this administration, this pussy ass administration came in, they was like, oh, we can't do that. We can't have that. We gotta have someone to buy it. Because it's gonna affect us, it's gonna affect our elections. Because people were telling the truth. So no, I'm not on TikTok. Um, I think Ashley still has, you still have it uh TikTok, right? Yeah. But it's just not the same. Um, and I know that TikTok is like, we gotta do done, we gotta cut, we gotta cut back, we gotta cut back, we gotta cut back. And Nashville, you know, those of words on the app.
SPEAKER_09Like, why do I have to say great instead of rape? I just like, you know, fucking, I'm gonna say the real words because that just that's part of the wanting to do.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. So yeah, TikTok offices in Midtown um in Nashville are being shuttered. Um, I hope those people, um, the ones that lost their jobs, I hope you guys find other employment elsewhere. Um, I never want to sit there and be like, that's what y'all get. No, y'all work for a company that, you know, just shuttered its operation. So um I hope you guys find jobs um elsewhere, and I hope, you know, very quickly. So that's enough about uh fucking TikTok. Um I'll put this in here because let me tell you something. I have a black therapist. I'm a black man that has a black man as a therapist.
SPEAKER_09Um my friend is a hundred percent right. Therapy does not work if your ass is lying. Go ahead, baby.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. If you are sitting there lying to your therapist, and um you know, I sat there, I've been in, I think like maybe 12 or 14 sessions, 12, 13, 14 sessions now. And my therapist literally told me, he said, listen, are we gonna be telling the truth or we're not gonna be telling the truth? Because I'm we we all in. This is it, you know. And that really resonated with me. And I said, you know what, you're right. Therapy doesn't work if you're lying. Therapy does not work. Your therapist cannot figure out or tell you the solution or try to help you with your issues if you are not telling them the full and honest, transparent truth. And I feel like a lot of niggas are in therapy just to say they went to therapy. I do. Because a motherfucker can go to therapy and just sit there and lie all day. And the and the bad part about it is, the sad and the bad part about it is your therapist know you're lying. Your therapist knows you're lying. That's why he said, mm-hmm. Uh mm-hmm. Okay. Well, when you're ready, when they say when you're ready to talk about it, or when you're ready to fully open up, then you know, we'll have another session.
SPEAKER_09I mean, one time I had a white therapist when I was in college, and she actually was the mom. She was older. She said, okay, well, when you're ready to um face everything, I said, Oh, oh, this bitch ate me up. I said, Well, let me sit my stupid ass down. So, because I ain't finna tell you the truth no time, so let me sit my stupid ass.
SPEAKER_04I think it was like our third or fourth, he was like, Okay, and I said, What do you mean? And he goes, there's more to the story.
SPEAKER_02I said, I said, well, damn nigga.
SPEAKER_04I said, damn nigga, don't I said, you just, I said, well, damn, you just come in for me. He said, because you're not telling the truth. I said, you know what? You right. You right. So just um before we move on to black business one-on-one, I just want to say that to all the niggas out there that are in therapy, you have to tell your therapist the truth of what's going on. You can't be afraid. You have to open up and you have to deal with the issues that you are going through. Because if you don't deal with it, you'll be stuck. So that's just me. That is that that that's my um my whole stance on if you have a therapist, be truthful. Now, moving on to Black Business 101. What is your black business, baby?
SPEAKER_09Yeah, so I'm on my little wellness journey. My little snack was I've been eating 10 fit. Ooh, excuse me. So my skin is looking great. But due to this wellness journey, I had to revisit uh the pharmacy and I had to revisit Black Girl Vitamins because, honey, taking those cholera oils, that collagen, your zinc, your elderberries, your um black seed oil, which is something that I take normally in my routine, is everything. So why not support black people that are doing it the right way? That's making these supplements particularly for us. So shout out to Pharmacy for Life, which is owned by Styles P, his beautiful wife Audwa, and uh Black Girl Vitamins. They even have vitamins for PCOS, sleeping, prenatal.

We can discuss some shit because I just feel like the rollout, ever since COVID happened, right? Ever since Avengers Endgame, I just feel like we should have taken maybe a two-year hiatus from the Marvel. Like the cinematic. Yeah, because y'all kept on trying to release shit, and I know it was COVID. They wanted, you know, y'all could have just released the series on TV. Y'all didn't have to release all these fucking movies and shit like that. It wasn't time. It wasn't time. Y'all didn't have enough time to build. Now we are at this point now where y'all are building again, but it didn't have to be this way.

They could have made Blade. He came out and said that. He said, I was under contract, and he was like, Y'all could have made Blade.
SPEAKER_09And y'all, and I think what really pisses me off too, and I really hope this isn't the case, but this young lady was in his comment section. I think he liked the comment. But why you had this man under contract for how, like maybe that I think it was 18 or 19 it was announced.
