Okay, let's get back on track.
Scream you came here with mass what is it?
Speaker 3I have a couple of messages, Okay, I don't know.
Speaker 1Fatherhood is a mess because you're balancing your life, the child's life, your girlfriend, wife's life, your work life, your friend life.
I mean, it throws a real wrench.
Speaker 2Can you still have friends as a new parent?
Speaker 3No?
Speaker 1Not really, you have to combine things.
I'm thankfully employed in a position where I can.
This is French to me, this is friends.
Yes we're productive, but we're friending.
We are friends, but we're associates at the moment, we're business associates.
Speaker 2Which is actually messy.
Speaker 3Colleagues.
Speaker 6It's messy because sometimes right when you blend that, there is no it's real gray, like it's murky, so stuff that I would say to my friend a bit your ass is back, like you can't if we business partner friends.
Speaker 2We can't.
You can't.
Speaker 6Really, I can't touch your elbow like this because HR should get involved, but there's no.
Speaker 2HR and stand there.
Speaker 5It's so hard.
This is the only work where you could say hey, bitch and the person whoever you're talking to.
Speaker 2That is the title of the episode.
Speaker 1Featuring why thank you yours as do yours?
Speaker 7I don't know.
Speaker 1I think that that's good though, Like I would rather have my work be my life and my life be my work.
Speaker 3Yeah, because it's always fun.
Yeah, I think it's a good time at all times.
Speaker 2It's like a it's like a, really, you don't agree you want to be in a cubicle?
No, you don't know.
Speaker 6Well, it's the same feeling how I feel from the work from home.
I got it in the beginning, but now it's like, no, you got to go to your work, and then your home be your home.
Speaker 2The blending of the two.
Speaker 6Is just how do I where's my safe space?
My couch where I used to lay now is in the background of where I'm fucking working.
And now if I'm having a bad meeting, I don't want to go to my couch because I'm like, you got that bad meeting energy on this ship.
Yeah, so it's like, go to work, go home, separate the two.
Speaker 1I've been wanting to do that ever since I had a kid.
I'll get out of the house because now my entire home.
Speaker 3Yeah, there's there's Yeah.
I got to get an office or something.
You got to get out of the house.
I got the old ball and chain at home.
Speaker 6You got to sponsor somebody.
No, somebody needs to sponsor you to have your own work.
Speaker 1On Instagram the other day I said, somebody, please give me a free office.
I got a lot of dms, but they were not good.
And then I was at the coffee shop in my neighborhood the other day and I saw the most unhinged, messiest ship I've ever seen in my life.
It was a flyer that said, Hi, I'm like a freelance creative person looking for any room to rent.
If you have a spare room in your home, I will rent it as my office.
Like this person was looking to move in.
Speaker 2What's the budget?
Speaker 3They won't.
Speaker 2They won't.
Now that would have been messy.
Speaker 5If a I give you four hundred dollars if you let me use this as an office.
Speaker 1Would you let someone rent the spare room in your apartment as their office where they come in from nine to five they have.
Speaker 5A spare I got to go to one of those members only places.
Speaker 2There's so many in the scene.
Speaker 1I I imagine that this person wants to be alone.
They don't want to be in the co working.
They don't want to co work.
Speaker 2What are you doing that you don't want to co work?
Speaker 3I'm talking me about the guy in the coffee shop.
Speaker 5Not Maybe it might be cheaper to just get a hotel for the day.
Speaker 3I don't think so.
Speaker 2You don't think so.
Speaker 3Actually, if you divide your rent by thirty days, don't do it.
Speaker 2Don't do it.
Speaker 3I'm don't do it.
You may as well live in the hotel.
Speaker 6Well, I had to do it because my because I moved into my apartment at the end of the month.
So they had to pro rate my rent next the next month, and I was like, wait, that's how much I'm spending a day.
Speaker 1They're so cheap.
Those bastards are so cheap.
They wouldn't let you move in earls.
Speaker 5No, No, it was me.
I found the place late.
And then they were like, oh you got I'm still paid a whole month, and that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3Next month.
Speaker 5They were like, j K, now you pay what you would have to pay next, like last.
Speaker 3Month, did you do the division?
Speaker 2Yeah, you don't want to tell us.
Speaker 5You being cool with you, it's the Devil's number.
Yes, that's not bad than what I said.
Okay, there's a lot of sixes.
Speaker 3Yeah, I don't want to look at I don't want to look at mine.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 5So okay, So so being a dad is messy.
Speaker 3Being a dad is very messy.
I think being a mom is messy here.
Speaker 6Obviously, yeah, because I was going to say, she's doing most of the work.
You're ripping, running, trying to make the bake.
Well, not the bacon for you.
Speaker 3But the bread.
Speaker 5The bread we make the bread, bacon beef beef baker, which is nest turkey baker.
Speaker 2I didn't know beef bacon was the thing.
Speaker 3It's a thing.
Speaker 2They have it in the they have it in the bag.
Yes, is that like slim gym that.
Speaker 5It is giving fin it s felt a slim jym, slim Jimmy.
Speaker 3I just don't get bacon.
I get read.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 5So you're making You're making a lot of money for your family.
Speaker 1Yeah, I'm a provider.
But that's why I don't spend the money for myself.
That's what I'm saying.
So I'm like, do I really need this?
Like I should have the office.
I should be able to afford the office.
Speaker 2Somebody's gonna comp it.
Speaker 6Yeah, don't skip on the things that is most important.
Like I feel like that's the thing about being a dad, but also being a man is like I don't think y'all know how to compartmentalize things.
It's just like it's either like all or nothing.
It's like, well, if I have to, if I have to work and provide and be a man, then like, how what other things can I fit in there?
Speaker 5You can't, but you can because you hire an intern or assistant.
Speaker 2You want an assistant.

Speaker 2You know what I mean that that?
But I need to google this.

Speaker 5I well, m I saw I saw a TikTok of a nurse in the hospital and she the top of the video just said we lost another patient today and it's her crying in the hallway.
And then this guy made a like a spoof of it, and it was like he comes into the room, he sets up the camera, you makes sure it's on, and then he's like.
Speaker 6That's what I don't like the people who set up their camera their animal is dying or has died, and they're holding they're holding their animal, they're fixing the angle.

Speaker 10Think for anyone that's just listening and not watching, I'm coming to you live from the recording.
They brought me to Times Square.
These girls brought me to Times Square to go through their purse and ignore me.
Speaker 2No, I would, I would never, Caleb, I've been locked in.
Speaker 10With They put me in the Christopher Columbus Tier of whites, and then they started going through their bags and now they're sharing products and tips.
Speaker 3I've been mistreated.
Speaker 6But I love that you asked this question because when people ask about me and I'm like, yo, the reason why we have not made it to the top is because we put our friendship first.
Speaker 3Yeah, you can give you a step on each other a little bit.
Speaker 6I'd rather have no money, you know, podcasts just doing okay, then like us, you know, have a million dollar deal and they hate each other million dollars and this will be our last episode.
Speaker 2Yeah yeah, all right, let me head out.
Speaker 3Here we go, get here, we go.
Speaker 7Everything.
Speaker 2I took out the person.
Speaker 5But you know, you know some people who link up and start doing you know, work together and like collaborating and then be duos and they literally hate each other just together because they're making money.
And I said, I rather not make money and be with my.
Speaker 11Saying that is listening.
Yeah, well, you ever have true friendship?
Then the bag I was a friend, I wouldn't, by the way.
Friend by the way, Yeah not me.
I'm different, but God bless I love that.
God bless.
Speaker 10I would sell either one of you out for for a two hundred dollars.
Speaker 2And that's why you win.
The Columbus Teer of what it all comes back?
Speaker 3Y'all know, I'm kidding.
Speaker 5Wait, so Amber, what is your mess?
What did you come to talk to us about?
I have so much mess?
You have some and I have so much.
Speaker 2Lay it down.
Speaker 12So the messiest thing I can think of right now is that I have a friend that is definitely currently in a church cult.
Speaker 2A church cult like our vacation Bible School.
Speaker 5No no, no, no, like maybe it started there and went left.
No no, no, no, Now don't you do that to vacation Bible School.
Vacation Bible School.
It was lit and it's not cult at all for me, like a member of the I said, And first of all, where her long jeans.
Car.
Speaker 2First of all, is football.
Okay, we were not wearing jeans, y'all.
Speaker 5Were wearing the dinner splitting directly location Bible school jean skirt jeans.
Speaker 2Sir, we were not wearing vacation but oh I thought I was with the patchword.
I was tight.
Oh see, mine wasn't tight.
Mom was giving bail.
Oh my was tight, and I was like, my mama, let me wear a tight one.
She was like, get this one, it's cute.
I was like, this is too big.
All my stuff was oversight.
Speaker 6It was a lot of my stuff was hand me downs for my cousins and whatnot.
So nothing was fitting me right, even my shoes.
Okay, so your friend you think she's in a cult?
Speaker 2You think or I don't think I know?
Speaker 12You know, for her, I know and metter fact, I don't think she I know she's in a call because she don't.
Speaker 2Know she's in a calt and that's how you in a car.
Yeah.
Speaker 12So okay, So, first of all, she started going to this new church and we was like, okay, she's always been in the church.
Speaker 2Not always.
Speaker 12She reformed herself.
Shout out to you, girl.
I don't know what name you're using now, but.
Speaker 2She's on the run.
Speaker 12She's on the run, so enough, so okay, we're gonna call her j Yeah, we gonna call her Jaylo.
So Jaylo was always in a church, reformed her life.
Speaker 5She started, wait, Joe, this is we can't use Jaylo because so Jennifer my.
Speaker 12Girl, me me, I'm gonna called me mean my girl memi.
She joined this, she joined the church, and then she changed churches and we're like, okay, like cool whatever.
Speaker 5So then she was like, oh I love this church.
So then it started to be like the hour she was at church.
So I'm like, wait, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and I thought it was Wednesday and Sunday.
Speaker 12I can I can do Wednesday and Sunday.
But I was like, okay, it's Thursday.
You at the sanctuary eight o'clock.
It's Friday.
Why are you at the church.
So then it was like, okay, now I'm seeing you with the people who run the church.
On your Instagram, you're not posting anything else but being at the church.
And then it was oh, I haven't been around because I they bought me an apartment in Dubai.
Speaker 2Whoa bought an apartment in Dubai.
Now how many times?
Speaker 8Now?
Speaker 2Dump on your chest for the Lord.
Hold on, where is this church?
Speaker 12Would love to sign up the churches in Maryland if you want to sign up, they are taking by Remember my homes in Dubai.
Speaker 2That's crazy in Maryland.
I need to know.
I need to know what is going on now.
Speaker 12That's the information I got that she had an apartment in Dubai.
That's why she hadn't been around.
But did she go Do you know she was in Dubai?
She was, I mean, she had videos in Dubai.
Would one day she's at the church and then we saw her covered up.
I said, okay, you're living.
So at first we were like, okay, they're taking you to Dubai.
Speaker 3What they doing there?
Speaker 6She was like, Oh, they're recruiting me.
I was like, but wait, what kind of denomination is this?
It's not Muslim?
Speaker 2No, So what they're doing in Dubai, I think, Hey, I don't know what would be the mecca for Christianity.
I gets to them.
Oh, I was gonna.
Speaker 7I don't know why.
Speaker 2I was going to say maybe New York City or LA I don't know, I don't know.
I don't know what Jesus laying at the end.
I want to said, Jerusalem, that jean skirt on.
Speaker 12In BBS and you were They had me in the play.
Speaker 2And everything with the show.
Speaker 5In New York was the mecca where the spirit the most.
Yeah, not me having lived in Mississippi before, Yes, that's where they loved the Lord down there.
Speaker 2What Dubai good bye?
Are you sure?
Speaker 4Why?
Speaker 2But that's what I think, so listen.
Speaker 12So then she was like, oh, you know, they're they're wonderful, blah blah.
So then it started to be she slowly stopped talking to people, but no, they would come back and she wouldn't see her family no more.
So she's coming back.
So we're like, okay, you're not in Dubai, you're gonna go see your.
Speaker 2Mom, And she would say no.
Speaker 3She was just like, oh, I'm so busy.
Speaker 2I'm so busy, I'm so busy.
Speaker 12So then we noticed that, like she's now at these people's house all the time, not at the church.
She's at their house, in their home, and I'm like, this is weird.
So then she's calling the wife of the pastor her spiritual mother.
Then it became she's like my mom, my second mom, and second mom, I was like, how old is this woman?
Speaker 2She was like, oh, she's three years older than this girl.
Three years.
They're part in three years.
Speaker 12Also, the suit the man is wearing a horrible they are What does the pastor look like?
Speaker 2Is it's Steve Harvey?
Is it Steve Harvey?
So no, he's not giving Steve Harvey.
He is giving.
Speaker 12So first of all, I don't know where he's from.
He's giving dreads, red suit.
Speaker 6Hold on, hold on, hold away in church.
Now I thought I thought this pastor was white.
Speaker 2No, it's a black man.
Speaker 5Well when we heard red suit, we knew it wasn't a white with a black wife.
Speaker 12A black wife who said that she is a prophet because they slept together and now she can see what God has for them.
Speaker 6I'm scared because can you can you even be a prophet and have sex?
Speaker 7What?
Speaker 12Apparently they can?
They have a whole, they have two kids, of a house.
Apparently were they married?
They're married now the spiritual mother.
Speaker 5Okay, okay, can you be a prophet and have sex?
As Wow, that's a good question.
Speaker 2No, why can't you have sex?
If you could see things?
I don't know.
Can you could see that?
If you could see so much.
Why you need to have sex?
Speaker 5Because as I know, it's gonna be good.
Speaker 12Once you have sex, you can't see no more.
That's what it is, you saying.
The prophecies get a little different.
Yes, no, this is not just my story.
Okay, I know people have this journey.
Okay, yeah, yeah, it was it.
It's called digmatized.
Speaker 2Yes.
Can I show the guy?
Can I show y'all the guy?
Speaker 5Yeah?
Speaker 2Please?
Oh why do it look like love and hip hop?
Speaker 12When I say it looks like love and hip hop?
Up in that church, here's my girl.
So it's a mega church.
They have, like an mega church?
How many people mega church?
I would say five hundred, six hundred.
Speaker 2That's not a mega church.
Speaker 5I'll tell the megachurch if they don't want to dubai.
If the church has an escalator inside?
Okay, there we go about to say.
Let me see the family.
Speaker 2This is the spiritual mother.
Now she's a batti.
The tea with this woman?
Speaker 12Is that every video I see her in looking at my friends, she looks disgusted at me.
Speaker 5He has so many followers, yes, megachurch?
Oh no, but she did pay for it.
You're right, she paid for a yeah, is a two thousand.
Speaker 2That's what I said.
Speaker 5I said, there's no way.
Maybe they got a few members in Dubai.
No, I went to Hillsong.
Hillsong was a mega church.
Thousands of people were there at one time.
Yes, oh god, they were in theaters.
They had to be in theaters.
But a megachurch if there's an escalator in it and a balcony, a mezzanine, there is a.
Speaker 12There's an exculator and a balcony and they're selling couches.
Wait wait now, wait now it's pops.
It's Bob so CEV two for the Lord.
Shout out to BOBX furniture.
So when they do a blessing on a chair, they will then try to sell it to the congregation and say, God has moved me and told me that somebody needs to buy this for ten thousand dollars and thousand dollars.
Speaker 5It's drugs.
It has to be diving.
Close the doors, closed the doors, the door.
Speaker 6This is wild that you brought this up, because I watched the documentary on that pastor Jim Jones.
Speaker 2How all those people go to Guyana?
He was he yes, he was?
And is that the kool aid man.
Yes, that's the kool aid man.
Speaker 5And he went there and it was over nine hundred and something people who died from suicide or murder.
But while watching the documentary, this is my mess is that every time I watch a documentary, I try to find the funny in it.
And I got to stop because it's that it's sad.
But what happened was when it was the day of you know, everybody's supposed to commit suicide, right, every everybody does die.
But there was an older lady who stayed in her cot.
She fell asleep.
She missed it, so she came out and everybody is good was dead.
Speaker 2And I said, that's me, that would be Maybe she's a prophet that I would love.
Speaker 12I would love to oversleep a mass murder or suicide.
Speaker 2And she said, no, it was I don't think they thought they were gonna die?
Did they know?
They did?
They knew.
I think they knew.
He said we going to going together.
He let them know.
He gave them cerary.
Where did they think they were going?
I guess to heaven?
Speaker 6Yeah, yeah, the broom.
Yeah, they put and it wasn't even kool aid.
It was called flavor aid.
Speaker 5So it wasn't and so it was if I was kool Aid, I would I would sue for deformation because now.
Speaker 2When they all did because they drink the kol Aid, don'tdrink the kool Aid.
Speaker 5Yeah, but it was flavor Aid flavor Aid, so he really he had the discount.
Yes, the Kirkling, the Kirkling kool Aid, the Kroger's kool Aid.
Speaker 12They had to buy a bunch.
So that's probably why he had to get the discount.
Speaker 5And it's not one hundred people for he said, okay, the discount.
Speaker 2He didn't have a Costco card and I can't.
I can't leader that.
Don't have no Costco card because what because in the Costco it's so messed up.
Speaker 6But yeah, there was there was people who did survive out of that, and out of all the people who did, I resonated so much with this older.
Speaker 2Lady and she came out and she was like, what was going on?
I was like, that's me.
Speaker 5She didn't know what time it was with that, and it was like everybody at everybody gone, Yeah.
But if she knew that there was all the suicide was scheduled.
I'm sure there was a cup you know what?
Speaker 2She was probably like, okay, y'all, just wake me up.
Speaker 5Yeah, but I'm saying, like, I'm sure she could have been.
Speaker 2Like, let me just get let me, let me just get a little bit, let me do mine.
Speaker 12But maybe suicide in a group when you're doing about yourself not as fun.
Speaker 2Right, You can't if you listening to this.
Speaker 5Sorry, So first of all, this might be a little bit triggering, but you do a deal with nine hundred others.
Speaker 2I love I love that in a red suit.
Yeah no, there was no red suits.
Speaker 5You know.
Speaker 2I'm saying.
He had the glasses.
Yeah, but the guy was odd.
But he wasn't even athletic.
So does he need to be athletic to be a cold?
So what I'm saying, Okay, So what I'm saying is, if.
Speaker 12You are a prophet, right and you want me to get you to follow you somewhere, or you're telling me we're gonna do this altogether, you can't eve run a mile.
Speaker 2You can't be physically inferior and telling me that I can go follow you.
You see what I'm saying, to follow you?
Speaker 5And that's why I think Harriet Tubman had to be the bad she had to be the best to get all them people to go follow her underground railroad, especially the men.
Oh she was told in the wagon.
You know, now I'm going too far with it, but I know she was.
Also you think people don't try.
I agree, like, well they won't.
They They're like, okay, if I follow her, maybe she'd give me someone.
I feel like, for sure, Harriet Tubman must have had a fatty like she original bbl body, Harriet.
Speaker 2Is it a Sarah Bartman?
No, not that, not that, Okay, that Harriet Tubman had this small waist.
Yes, because then she had that.
Speaker 12The dress that was right running down the back and they could see that.
Okay, right, ok the biggest the back.
Speaker 2I can see that.
Speaker 5I can say that it's easier to get people to follow you if you got a big movie, if you got a big movie.
But and I think that's why I'm that's why nobody'sollow me.
Speaker 2That's what it is.
How you turned around smallering, I thought.
Speaker 7And they were talking.
Speaker 2About your ass for sure.
Speaker 5Yeah, because the people think that I'm taller than I.
Speaker 12You feel tall on line, and yet you feel tall mine.
Yeah, I feel like, but you have tall proportions too, like you have long legs, and long arms.
Speaker 2Oh okayyeh the army.
Yeah yeah sure, yeah.
You know, like if if somebody took a picture of you legs and was like how tall this person?
I would play like five seven five show is quite short, that's good.
Speaker 5Look at that starter call.
Speaker 2All you need is a room.
Speaker 12Really, I guess a lady you actually maybe he has a lot of energy.
Speaker 2I don't know, know you.
Speaker 6What it is is you have to have people who have nothing to look forward to.
Speaker 2And it's true.
Speaker 6When when I was my saddest and lowest, that's when I went to hill Song.
Speaker 5I was going through a relapse with alcohol.
I'll say hills Song pulls you in a different way.
The pastors got on all saints to leaveless vests.
Speaker 2They tad it You're like live, church is lit.
Speaker 6But in order for me to even step into that building, I was at my lowest.
Speaker 12So this is a quote said by my friend.
I'm so sorry.
If you watched this also, you need to hear this.
My one friend did say she was like, well, if any of us gotten a cult, it would have been her.
I said, mmm, she it did?
She have like sheep mentality, not sheep mentality, But I feel like she has had the roughest time and had to do the most as far as like emotionally like with her.
You know, she raised her sister all these things.
So I feel like when she met somebody that was.
Speaker 5Like take a break, come in here, she was like, great, somebody else can be in charge.
Speaker 2Wonderful.
And then it was a cult.
But now, when's the last time you saw her?
Probably two or three years.
We haven't seen her.
Nobody's seen her in years.
Speaker 12That's what happens when you're in a they crazy thing is she would starting to be isolated.
Speaker 5We would see her posting.
She doesn't post anymore.
And now she goes by Sarah.
Speaker 2Sarah's Now that's that's her.
That's her cult name.
Speaker 12That's her cult name.
She goes by Sarah.
Sorry, girl, I'm sorry, girl, I have to say her name.
Speaker 2Her name is.
Speaker 5Oh, we're bleeping that out.
They said, we're bleeping that out amber.
We're not keeping that.
They said, we you are messed.
You're Usually people don't say the names.
Speaker 7Girl.
Speaker 12I would have said her last name to you.
I would have said her last name, because my thing.
Speaker 5Is girl stopped like literally, she can't.
She's in a cold so how do we get somebody out of a cult.
Speaker 12But that's okay.
So we tried.
We tried to go on with a sleeper cell and was like, you go to the church and see.
But she said I had to leave.
They was too inviting.
Speaker 2She said it was I could see why somebody would get stuck.
So had to leave.
Yeah, she said, I gotta go.
I can't keep going to this where you gotta go?
Are they cooking oxtails?
Speaker 12Like I think they'd be cooking and they a big old house.
They'd be cooking oxtails and stuff they do.
Speaker 6Because if you put a good plate in front of me, you got a nice couch.
Speaker 5But ten thousand dollar couch that you're gonna buy.
It wasn't a love sack either.
I'm not buying a couch.
Speaker 6Yeah I don't have Yeah, No, I don't have them.
Speaker 12They be having parties at their house.
What kind of parties, I don't know.
Look like a colt party to me.
I feel like he is making a gang of women to follow him.
Speaker 2It was a lot of women.
It's a lot of women, mostly women.
Speaker 6Most That was the thing about the Jim Jones guy.
It was mainly women who were in this.
Speaker 5Colt, which is weird because I feel like men it can they get caught up in Like so men are in cults too, but they don't know that they're cold men.
Colts is like fantasy foot Yeah, Thursday night.
Speaker 2They're not flying them to Dubai.
Speaker 13No.
Speaker 12I feel like when you're a woman, you can get flown out all these things.
Speaker 2You can't tell the man we're about to go to Dubai.
What we gonna do?
Yeah, what we're gonna do when we get there?
Twelve sixty men?
What are we gonna do?
This is a good question.
Speaker 12You can't take sixty men in Dubai.
Would you would you go to would you go to Dubai?
Speaker 6Would you if your church was like we're going to Dubai, We're flying you out.
Speaker 2What if they was like, we got you an apartment in Dubai?
Speaker 13That gay?
Speaker 2Okay?
Amen?
Amen?
Speaker 7All the time.
Speaker 2You can be gay for the Lord.
Speaker 5The Lord more like some gay No, not his Lord, okay, okay, not that denominations a straight lord?
Speaker 2Okay, straight Jesus.
Speaker 5So your your friend is in a cold clear you can't get her out?
No, I mean when when someone is in a cult, what's what's the best way to call.
Speaker 2Yeah, what's the protocol?
Speaker 12So okay, So we had I have my friend in l A.
She the cult girl went to l A and my friends still.
Speaker 2Had her location.
Speaker 5Girl, when you didn't, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 2You have to be called girl.
Sorry, you just have to be you have to.
Speaker 12So her best best friend went to LA and was like, I still have her location.
Speaker 5I'm gonna pull up on her okay.
And I was like, okay, what's gonna go on?
She said, She pulled up on her and the girl looked shook.
She was like why are you here?
Speaker 3Like what are you doing?
Speaker 8Da?
Da da?
Speaker 12And she was like, well, you haven't answered any of us.
You won't talk to us.
And she said she was like okay, I'll just call you tomorrow.
She never called her.
She said what are you doing here?
She said, what are you doing here?
Speaker 2That's scary.
I mean, Marie, let's twenty eighteen.
Speaker 3She's so pretty.
Speaker 2She's so pretty.
That's why they got her.
So you're said, there's no ugly people in the cold.
No, that's well, and maybe this specific cult.
Speaker 12And then when I see the man's comments, it's like this lady is always in there, like take tell them, how you abandoned your other family for your new family.
Speaker 2I'm like, this is a mess.
This actually now this is sad mess.
Speaker 5But now my question is, oh, you said she calls them the prophets, so she don't call them my pastor.
Speaker 3She doesn't finish.
Speaker 2She calls them both.
Speaker 5She calls the one the lady, her spiritual mother, and she calls the other one the prophet.
And that was years ago, so I don't know what she calls him now.
She might call him something else.
Now, Sorry, sorry if I'm getting it wrong.
Reflo Dollar just went just spent to jail for all of this crazy stuff.
Speaker 2He was also a pastor in like flashy suits and like they sent in.
Speaker 5The church and I think he bought a helicopter.
Speaker 2He had the church.
Speaker 5He was like, hey, I need a new private jet because this one is old.
Speaker 2And they tithe.
Speaker 3But that's what happens.
Speaker 12He'll tell them that he needs to go to a vacation for a week so that he can get more people, and they will pay for it.
Speaker 2The church.
Speaker 5My pastor was not going on no vacations.
He was in mental He was very very His car was just all right.
Speaker 2His home was right next to the church.
It was chill.
Speaker 5He was living like the lore.
Yeah yeah, but you wouldn't follow him to do bay.
No, no, you wouldn't find out like how we getting there.
Speaker 2He wasn't asking nobody to go to buy either.
Speaker 5But if you're trying to start a colt, they you know, people like fleshiness.
Yeah, they nowadays, you know, they like things that like they're like, ooh that's pretty.
Speaker 2You got regular stuff that I got.
I'm not following you.
Yeah, no, no, no, no, no have cool glasses.
You don't have it doesn't even have.
Speaker 6Yeah, the Jim Yeah he did have some like you know, not I wouldn't say flashy glasses, but they were definitely glasses but had charisma.
Oh okay, well he was pretending to, you know, bite off of the other black pastors.
Speaker 3Mirror.
Speaker 7I see.
Speaker 5The problem is, I feel like cults have been around so long.
Haven't we heard this all before?
It doesn't matter when I'm telling you, when you down and out, when you looking, when you're looking for a sign, it's a Bible app.
Speaker 2What the Bible app?
It'll send you a verse at eight o'clock.
Speaker 6I'm not I'm sorry.
That's two new ages you get the actual Bible.
I actually said the time the Bible through Kendle.
Okay, you got to actually open the book.
But if I'm saying now, you're not listening to it.
Okay, sir, If I was reading the Bible, it's not going to be on a handheld thing.
I'm opening the book.
I'm opening the book.
Speaker 2You do everything on your phone.
You can at work.
I think they took it sense.
They took it too far when they.
Speaker 5Started putting church on zoom and on the Bible on the phone.
Speaker 2That's where we lost the way.
Speaker 5You think we lost the way.
So we can't zoom in the church.
No, what you have to show up?
Speaker 2Why?
Speaker 5So sometimes I turn on the TV a little bit and maybe I'm you if I got something.
No, I'll be watching the church in Harlem.
There's a church in Harlem.
I watch Sometimes I don't know.
Sometimes I just google fun Church and then and that is see and no.
Speaker 12Amber black Man put it in TikTok mess fun Church for Blacks, and then it'll come up.
And then sometimes I'll get get a little word in and then I just listen to the same to Kirk Franklin songs, and then I call it a Sunday same to listen, stomp and mellow d's from Himven, you're.
Speaker 2And I ain't that I don't know if your prayers are being answered.
Speaker 5They're being answered, oh, because I was like if you actually I'm not sure.
Speaker 7I'm not.
Speaker 2Oh wait actually, and the worst thing is, okay, this is my tea with you.
Speaker 12Sarah new name, so she stole my cousin's name, who was her best friend.
Speaker 5And I'm like, could you have picked any other name?
But anyway, still a Sarah.
Sarah's for everybody.
Yeah, and that's for the street.
Then you should have picked somebody else.
That's like, okay, that's like you.
Speaker 12Join in a cult and they asked you what you want your new name to be and you picked Marie.
Speaker 6Well, ain't there somebody in the Mary Mary?
Speaker 2Yeah, Mary Marie.
That is not the same Miss Mary.
Speaker 5Mac mac mac all justin black, black, black, all down her back back back.
Speaker 2That was a baddie too, Miss Mary.
Matt shout out to miss Mary mack.
Okay, So Marie, if I was in a cult, would you come and get me?
How deep I would?
I would?
Speaker 5I think we would all pull up and come get you.
You have a community, I would say that would come and get you.
I would get my sister to grab you by the back of the neck like you were a cat, and your brother in there, and he would distract the devil with his breaks.
Speaker 2I'm doing a roundhouse kick on the past.
I'm not distract the devil.
Roundhouse kick on the devil.
Speaker 5And then and then Siddy would be like, what are you doing here in her bible in her long skirt.
Speaker 2Do you think she would be the time to say there's nothing wrong?
I think Sidney would be like, I just I don't know.
I feel like Sney would be like, I just I'd like you to hear no.
I wouldn't.
First of all, I would be like, I'm trying to figure my stuff out.
Yeah, I'm trying to get the house.
Speaker 5You know.

Speaker 5I would be like young thug on the phone with Wham.
I'm like, no, I'm telling listen, I didn't drag everybody, and they Grandmama.
Speaker 2Okay, whoop, whoop to do with.
Speaker 3I'd be like that.
Speaker 5Nicki, Minaja and I would have been talking about everybody and everyone that's in the cult.
If you were in a cult, I'm like you see, they got the nerve with the lint over new balances.
Speaker 6They try to give me a new balance.
And that's when I said, this might not need a colt for me.
I would be on the phone with you, Marie.
Speaker 12Can you imagine fighting for a heel and a cult there?
Speaker 2Like do you have any heels?
Speaker 14Shit?
Speaker 2I'd be like, did I get a black here?
I said?
Now, the meals are cute, the meals.
The meals are cute.
The meals are cute.
Speaker 6But when they asked me about a ten thousand dollars couch, I said, I might need to get a friend.
Speaker 2I need to get a friend of her.
Are you taking the apartment in Dubai?
Speaker 7I would.
Speaker 5If you if you asked me this eight months ago, when I didn't have an apartment.
Speaker 2Oh, I would have prayed for a lead on an apartment.
It's in a cult, but it is in Dubai.
Honestly, I love it.
But this mess, Yeah, didn't you have some stuff go by roll with?
Like Bernie?
Speaker 5Bernie Sanders was sitting Bernie with.
Speaker 2Something.
Yeah, you're like with the winter coat.
Speaker 6Like you were Like Bernie was like, he has something else to do.
He was going to the Post Office after Yeah, it was really good.
Speaker 2But that that photo went viral, like we were putting Bernie in the boat with oh for what is it called?
Bird bird bird Bird?
Yeah, what happened to great great memes?
Speaker 6I like when things get meme if I I think abbot elementary, they do great job of meming that.
Speaker 2I think making fun.
Speaker 5And like a polite way, like something that we were like.
Speaker 2We're all, we're all in it.
Speaker 5I could appreciate Twitter for that, but we it's lost the plot.
Speaker 2It's lost the plot.
Speaker 6Now people are paying to be verified.
They took away all the checks.
Oh that also took it down a notch.
And it's like, well.
Speaker 2Elon bought it.
It was like, well I'm gonna go, I'm gonna head out.
Speaker 14And if you have a blue check, then you can get paid if your stuff goes viral.
Well that's how people monetize Twitter.
Speaker 2But they're for Twitter.
Speaker 14Yeah now now, yeah, like if you have to pay for it to get paid, that's dumb.
Speaker 3So people engagement farm which and you.
Speaker 6Know what I think, and the making the money of this stuff has taken away from the fun because when I was having the most fun, the money was just happening.
But now it's like that's the that's got to be on your brain constantly, like how how are we gonna get this paper, how are we gonna get that bag?
How are we going to make this content?
So it's just not I think that's what's driving so many people now, and it's and that's what that's what's missing the storytelling.
Speaker 5It's like what can I do to like blow up?
And it's like just just live, like, yeah, then you'll blow up.
Speaker 2Tell us.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 5That's the one thing that I do like about TikTok.
They have this viral moment now, this this trend where it's like a muppet and people are saying, like the worst times that has ever happened.
They just keep using slides of the same uppet.
The video that had me like crying in my eye is.
Speaker 2Not crying crying in my eye, which is like crying in my mouth, crying my hippows.
But this boy, he.
Speaker 5Goes to the gas station, he comes out, he goes to the bathroom.
Speaker 2He's not sitting on the toilet, but you know, he got his butt out.
Speaker 6He's like, all of a sudden, he feels like this burning sensation in the crack of his butt.
Abe has stung him in his butt.
Speaker 5He gets up, he comes out, he's telling his parents, like a bee stung me, and they're all laughing because they're like, how is this not off moment?
But then he's like he's feeling ill.
He's feeling very sick.
Speaker 6He is allergic to be Oh my god, he just did not know that until this moment.
Speaker 2Stung in his ass.
And so he's in.
Speaker 6His car with fortunately, so he's his parents is one car, his grandparents are in another car.
Speaker 2They're like, he can't breathe.
He's literally his throat is closing out.
There's no a bee stung him in.
Speaker 5The butt, because if my butt starts burning at a gas station, I'm like, oh I must know, because.
Speaker 2Then you know the humans like the bee dies and you see the toilet.
So then he pulls he had to pull the bee.
Speaker 3Out O my gord.
Speaker 2So then what's to be doing in the bathroom was taking a pe, taking a dumb as well.
Speaker 5He's like, he was like, occupy, you know what you.
Speaker 2You try to reach, I'm there.
He was like, I'm not decent, and.
Speaker 6So then he can't breathe.
So his parents they're in a car.
He's like, okay, we're going to the emergency room.
And then his grandparents are in another car.
Speaker 2They're driving.
Speaker 6They're trying to get there as fad so he doesn't literally die from this beasting.
Speaker 2They're on the way to the hospital.
Speaker 5They get to the hospital, they're like, okay, they rush him.
Speaker 6They tell the doctors what happened.
They get a phone call.
Grandparents got in a car accident.
All the way to the ambulance, so they have to go.
They're going to another hospital.
They took their grandparents to another hospital.
His dad and mom had to leave him to go.
Speaker 2To this up with his fee.
Speaker 5They were like, you got a beasting, you'll be fine.
Right, you're in the hospital.
We got to go to the grandparents.
Why didn't they just take the grandparents to the same hospital because they had two different cars.
Speaker 2I guess they were doing like a family trip or whatever in a one stop shop.
Right, So then.
Speaker 6They go to the parents the grand the grandfather survives whatever, and then and then you know, the son, he's okay, he's fine.
Two weeks later, grandfather dies.
Like that is wild.
Speaker 2Wait, but the grandfather was fine.
The grandfather was fine.
But then I think died.
I don't know.
I can't remember.
Speaker 5If it's from the it was a bee it?
Speaker 2Why did you tell this?
Speaker 7Third?
Speaker 2But it was every slide I was.
Speaker 6I was like, no, I said, yes, more of this, tell us the worst.
Speaker 2Time in your life.
I need it.

But you know what's Inney, You had to go through all of that to become the nice person that you are now, because.
Speaker 2You could be Mushy Yeah, that's it.
It's cute to be mushy.
No, I had to.
Speaker 6I had to really just lean on, you know, being nice to people, because I know that nice gets you a lot further than being mean.
But do people respect nice?
Speaker 3I respect nice?
Speaker 2You respect?
Speaker 3Yeah?
Speaker 7Yeah me?
Speaker 5And that's all money.
They all that sounds like.
Speaker 14I prefer a nice person.
I was the only friends with nice people growing up.
Speaker 5Well, you seem like a nice person.
Yeah, I think I'm I feel like you seem nice, but I could also see like a Regina George in your past.
Speaker 2No, I swear that's not.
Speaker 14I think that's what people perceived me as before they know me, because that is what I give off, really.
Speaker 2Give off, like pretty cute off.
Speaker 5Really, that's what people have told me.
What eyebrows like that, like woman's up to me.
You know, I'm like, hey, party, let me go.
But I think I understand what you're saying because people have told me that, Like I give off mean girl.
But that's just because I get scared.
I get nervous, and that's the front I put up.
But I think I'm nice.
Speaker 2No, you are.
You're very nice.
Marie.
The way she had me outside of the movie, I was scared for my life.
Speaker 5How she has She said, Sidney, tell me if I'm going crazy right now?
Speaker 2I was like.
Speaker 5Absolutely, oh she she was like because she was like, I need a manager.
No, no, Sidney, this is this is scared Sidney.
Speaker 2This is why I text you.
Speaker 5I said, this is why you paid the one hundred and fifty for your wraggy nails, because you stand for nothing and you fall for everything.
We was at the theater and I said, hey, no, I said back, you can head out.
I said said head out because I'm handling this.
She's like, no, I want to be here to support you.
I said, let me know, want them to No, no, no, She's like no, I mean no, you're not tripping.
They was wrong for what they did.
And I said, okay, did you say she did say that you need to keep it real right now to head?
Speaker 2Yes, I mean I had the gun on you.
It was a Pandora.
Speaker 3Door a gun.
Speaker 2Yeah.
No, let me tell you.
Speaker 5I wasn't even gonna trip on them.
I came, I said, hey, I just need to speak to the manager.
Speaker 2Mind you.
Speaker 5I had to use a restroom.
I left my water bottle and said, I go back up.
I come down it's three managers.
I said, oh, we're doing this or that.
She had no sleeves pulling them up, while y'all had to get three managers because I'm a black woman.
So then I had to say all them straight.
And I said, hey, hey, we sitting here going back and forth.
What usually happens when someone is dissatisfied with their movie experience, he'll go one of the dumb managers, we give them tickets for another movie.
I said, well, that's what y'all gonna do today.
Speaker 2What theater?
Speaker 5We didn't have no receipt for tickets, and she didn't in paid for the ticket.
Speaker 2You don't repeat, offender.
Speaker 6You already is treating you to something, and you the one you the person at the table A well, put down this.
Speaker 2It's principal at the end of the day.
Speaker 5I ain't even use some tickets because baby, let me say, they gonna never see me at that movie here again, I see sponsored by MC right now, So I mean you do go see AMC movie.
Speaker 2No, but this was regal and they the devil.
That's that theater.
Speaker 5I'm not doing it, but I mean, I don't want to put that on your podcast like that, But you did.
Speaker 2But I can't do it, girl, I'll take I actually take four.
Speaker 5MC got better seats and they're heated and they have better reward.
Speaker 2Systems and everything.
Speaker 5So I found my place and I found where I need to go, and it's not.
Speaker 2And they let you be loud at AMC.
Speaker 5So I had not an issue or threats or a problem at the anti theater.
Speaker 2So they gave you how many tickets they.
Speaker 5Gave me because it was just two of us, so they just gave.
Speaker 2Me two and what you said, third gave me to So she was you want this?
I was like, but I and I gave him.
I gave him to eating because he did pay for the tickets.
Speaker 5I gave them tickets to eating because I said they won't catch me back there.
But I just knew Justina had to be third because you're not gonna be threatening me at a movie theater.
That's just not how it works.
That's unprofessional.
All you had to say is, hey, this is warning number one.
Y'all gotta keep it down.
People are being disturbed.
Y'all gonna get kicked out.
Okay, kick me out, kick me out.
Speaker 2So did you finish the movie or did you get up?
We finished the movie, and then we walked.
Speaker 5I had the stress of them threatening me and the stress of aliens eating people's heads on my mind, and the stress of.
Speaker 2The lady that told Joe baby walk out.
Speaker 5And then people were like, oh, y'all were hilarious.
Y'all were really funny.
They look they the people who were watching the movie.
They thought we were funny.
Some people do enjoy when you know our berson and comments when you make like, oh that ilt feel ugly.
Speaker 2Your hair ain't supposed you know.
Some people do enjoy that.
Speaker 5Other people do want you to shut up, which I get.
But it's like you get I knew you who are very You're a very stronghold on the quiet car on the Amtrak because but you run people.
You were like, hey, you're gonna have to do you You follow the rules in the choir car, but can't follow the rules at a quiet place.
Y'all are missing it.
Y'all are missing it, and that's where you are who you are.
No, y'all are missing it.
In the I was experienced something in real time.
It was happening in real time, and I had no space to process it.
That's it.
Speaker 2It's a movie.
Ain't nothing to process except the pictures.
Speaker 5That's what y'all, because when I'm watching a movie, that's not how it is.
I was stressed.
I was stressful, lupeter.
I was stressed for you know, for.
Speaker 2The White Man without that movie stressed me.
Speaker 6Was in processing that ticket.
You did not have to pay for it, And you know what, I love that for you.
I love that for you.
Speaker 5Yeah, I mean, did you have any like rules or like maybe advice to people who are giving like Google reviews?
Honestly, I the rules that I would say, I don't even really follow, but since you are, since you asked, I feel like I should say something, keep it, keep it brief, something I don't do.
Sometimes they gotta be like you, out of charactersts.
Speaker 2You gotta have a h how many caps you get for I don't even know, but I remember that review for the movie theater.
Oh I ran out.
She let them go.
I should have made another.
Speaker 6It was half of our day.
We had to walk it off.
We literally had to walk after that, and then she went.
Speaker 2To work and was still talking about it still because we.
Speaker 5Told everybody it's traumatize them, but it's okay.
Try to leave your emotions out of it.
Speaker 2If if you.
Speaker 5Guys can go to the regal uh you know, Instagram page and put palm trees underneath.
Speaker 2Let them know.
Speaker 5Please, let them know that I'm telling you I'm so sick of them.
I'm so sick of them.
Or you put justice from I encourage people to write them too, because they do help me.
They helped me pick hotels, they helped me pick venues, they helped me choose restaurants, brunch.
Speaker 2All of that type of stuff.
Speaker 5I feel like I always will really reveal and be like, oh, come here because this is given five stars.
Speaker 2I'll read the reviews before before I do anything.
Speaker 7Yeah.
Speaker 5Oh, especially hotels too, because we've had our bout with that too.
Speaker 2But we don't have time for that best hotel you've been in.
Best, Yeah, it wasn't on.
Speaker 5Your card, girl, girl, girl, I will say that some of the best and the worst hotels have not been on my card, so we would say that.
Speaker 2Will you be on the road literally full tea?
But no, I'm saying that some nice hotels, But no, I'm not really paying for that best hotel you've been in, Marie, best I've ever been in.
I don't know.
Speaker 5I wasn't prepared for that question.
Yeah, she's like, you asked me that from another time.
But I know the worst one.
I say that girl, I was in Baltimore.
Speaker 2Well there you go myself, y'all literally started.
Speaker 5I walk in and somebody at the desk talking mad as somebody walked into the room while they was in the room.
That's I just want to let you know.
That was me just walking in being greeted.
I'm into this already, you know, confrontation.
But yeah, so I won't do that again.
You really got to read the reviews and locked the.
Speaker 2Double, locked the door triple.
Oh yeah, that is true.
You do you gotta do that.
I wish I cared about.
Speaker 6I only started looking at reviews because of y'all, because we'll be about to walk into a place and you're like, hold.
Speaker 2On, well hold on, yeah, yeah, yeah, let's check it out.
Speaker 5Yeah, as somebody who hasn't really read review Sidney, how has that affected your experience when her?
Now, lady, oh read the reviews on it?
Now, someone you go to sis, I'm sure they're good.
It's it's a it's a usually good spot.
Speaker 6I think that that particular person was just over me and I I honestly I get.
I came in not knowing what the hell I wanted, and it was early in the morning, and I was like, how long is this gonna take?
Speaker 5You was taking a blame.
It's crazy just to save the reviews like we need is for you who don't really, I mean, you don't want to hold yourself accountable.
I'm myself accountable.
I'd be like, that's on me.
I say that all the time, but when it's not on me, I'm not.
I'm not taking it.
Speaker 2I mean everything that.
Speaker 5You said today was something the socks and the floatation tug.
Speaker 2She told you, hey, this one not ready.
Speaker 5You were like my ancestors shove me to three, not knowing what a white place was.
That's also you, you know, But I'm glad that at the end of it as it's always rectified for you.
Yeah, because with them fixing it with something like, hey.
Speaker 2You're come back.
Speaker 5Oftentimes I don't.
I don't even write the reviews to get stuff back.
But oftentimes if I do, businesses that care about the reviews and care about their perception and a reputation, they will follow up and make it right, because that's what customer service truly is.
Speaker 2In my opinion, that's true.
Speaker 5Whenever whenever somebody is like, oh they didn't like this, didn't like that, will take it off, or like, you know, when I'm like, I just want these people to just like have a good time, you know, I give them a couple of shots.
Speaker 2I'll take something off the menu.
Speaker 3I'll give them some.
Speaker 2Free like just to accommodate.
Speaker 5And even if you do that, people still go back on that review and be like bla la la.
Speaker 2It's like, hey, I give you hush shots.
Those are two hush hush.
Speaker 5Why are you still giving a bad review after I hit you off with two hundred dollars worth of shots.
Even if you don't like a drink, you send it back and they like, we're not taking it off your bill.
Speaker 2I didn't drink it, though.
Speaker 5I feel like that's something that like you should take that off.
Yeah, who wow.
I feel like I also just got yelled at at the fireplace.
Speaker 6Did we wear you out?
I'm sorry, that's just we do we do have?
Yeah, I phonus on the charge account.
Can you open it and I'll read it on yours?
I meana, I think, and I've been saying this, that you.
Speaker 5Should release a coffee table book full of all your Google reviews because they're so they're all, they're so different, they're so good.
Have you ever reviewed like a zoo or an aquarium something like that.
An aquarium, for sure, you were like, the fish look sick.
Speaker 2Girl, the water is not clean.
Speaker 5Yeah, I was gonna go.
I was gonna go, but the fields was doing what they need to do.
You know, I do write reviews about it.
Speaker 6I was reading the reviews somewhere I went, and they were just like, they don't need to have no animals near this place.
Speaker 3This was bad.
Speaker 7Do not go.
Speaker 2We actually need to boycott.
Yeah, yeah, okay, are you ready?
Yes?
Speaker 5Beyonce mess question mark, question mark, question mark.
Speaker 2That's the title.
Speaker 5Hey Messi's longtime listener, meaning I still rerun the Unificial Expert episode first time Messenger.
Speaker 2I have some Beyonce mess for you.
Oh.
Speaker 5Some friends and I decided to go see Beyonce in another country because the ticket prices were much cheaper and we figured we'd be down for a little excursion, right, I, thirty three year old man, mostly planned the ticket purchases with one of my best friend's thirty six year old male.
When buying the tickets, he mentioned he was excited because it was around his birthday, and I took this to mean that he was going to use the concert ticket as a gift to himself.
Okay, oh as good.
After everyone gets their tickets, around six of us, he sends a text saying basically that this is his birthday trip.
Speaker 2And that he wants us to have dinner for his birthday.
Now.
Speaker 5I am fine with the birthday dinner.
I love my friend and I'm happy to celebrate him.
Speaker 2But I'm confused.
Speaker 5Because we never spoke about this being a birthday trip.
I hadn't said anything to him because he didn't actually ask for anything too crazy.
But I'm nervous that when we actually get there, he may try to make the trip about him and my tripping or is this mess?
And would you say something to your friend before the trip additional contacts that may be useful.
Speaker 2I'm going with my boyfriend.
Speaker 5I do think the message was supposed to be cute and fun, but it just came off a bit weird because he didn't just ask to do a birthday dinner.
He started referencing the whole trip.
Note he sent is attached.
Okay, sincerely, Julius, Okay, B Day and Yonce b Day and Yonce June fourth night flight Wednesday, June fifth, be in London at some point Thursday, Nope, Thursday rest.
I want dinner and everyone to look sexy as fuck before and after.
I don't care you, do you?
June sixth Friday?
I don't care you?
Speaker 3Do you?
Speaker 5June sixth, seventh Saturday, Beyonce Day, Hunty June eighth and ninth Saturday, and Monday?
I don't care you, do you?
I'll probably fly out on Monday.
I don't want to make this trip about me or my birthday.
I just want us all to enjoy ourselves and be free.
No pressure to do anything you don't want to do.
I do come before Beyonce.
Speaker 7Though.
Speaker 5I love this tary, but it doesn't sound like he's made the trip all about him.
Speaker 2No, no, no, see this is what this is.
Wheah.
Speaker 5These people which obviously I kind of fall into this.
It's like oh no, no, no, no, chill, no, no worries, Like I'm not pressuring anybody.
That absolutely means the pressure is on you.
Speaker 6Read between that, yeah, oh no, I'm I'm holding myself accountable and yes, when I'm hearing this when they say I don't want to make this about me, but I come before Beyonce.
Speaker 5That is somebody, big diva, big diva, pulling it out and they're trying to be demure about it.
Speaker 2They're going to be hell.
You know what I mean?
That is?
That is how is he gonna say something?
Speaker 3Though?
Speaker 5But look it says June fourth, ninth, flight, June fifth, be in London at dinner.
Dinner is on the fifth, then Friday, do what you want, and then Saturday is Beyonce.
So this person is just asking for the fifth and the second.
Speaker 2How long they been friends?
That's a good that's a good point, I think, because he has trepidations.
Speaker 5Julius, you gotta say something because this was not your birthday trip.
If you wanted a birthday trip, then you should have said, hey, just like for me, were going and it ain't got nothing to do with my birthday.
But I'm like, this is our birthday, so this is my birthday celebration.
I made that known from up top, so now we all know why we're going.
Well, to be fair, you made it known after you bought the tickets for the no no, no, yes, you.
Speaker 2Might have known after you bought the tickets no, no, no no no, no.
Speaker 5No no, because top I said, hey, I want to go to see being Safe for my birthday.
Then we found out caveat we can't go on the actual day and time because we have other friends with other priorities.
Speaker 2So then we pivot and now make it a birthday thing.
Speaker 5But just after the birthday.
Speaker 7I mean.
Speaker 5Like that, Fred, I mean, I just know I do come from me?
How how this is a coincidence that we get this?
Speaker 2Isn't it crazy?
Get this?
It's insane.
Speaker 5Similar I can't believe real friends that have traveled so much for each other's birthdays.
I mean, I mean we've been to New Orleans, We've been to Morocco, Miami.
Speaker 2Mexico, Mexico.
Speaker 5I mean we've been traveling for many, many years, so we understand.
I think you have to start up, Top, this is for my birthday.
Speaker 2Yeah, we are going to celebrate.
Speaker 6Or sometimes we were like this was already going to be a trip and then it's like, hey, we should probably do a dinner for the birthday.
Speaker 5But this person is definitely telling them that they are doing something on his birthday.
Yeah, yeah, and anybody didn't already paid yeah.
Speaker 2For the trip and Julius, you didn't include it in the email.
Speaker 5I don't know if they sent you the money for the ticket or that the ticket is your guests.
What I thought the message was going when he said that.
Yeah, he was like everybody sent they money in and he's like, thank.
Speaker 3You for the bite.
Speaker 2B again, Listen, you guys a gonna have a great time.
They're going to have a good time.
Speaker 5But I feel like going to a concert internationally is already going to be babic hectic.
And concerts, I mean Beyonce, the way people were like having a stand for renaissance.
Speaker 6I don't know, honey, I don't know.
After they go to Beyonce, they might not.
Well, they're doing dinner before the concerts.
Were just smart because I know sometimes you do a big thing.
We wiped out.
There's nothing happening after that.
Speaker 5Yeah, but it's dinner two days before Beyonce.
He said, whatever y'all do on Friday is your business.
Yeah, I say, just give him a little cake or something, Yeah, a little sachet or something and then just that's it.
Speaker 2What else?
What else is there to do?
Innocent?
You're going with your boyfriend, so you're doing your own already.
Speaker 5Know you're like, I'm going, my man, y'all do what y'all need to do for the birthday.
But I'm this is a couple strip for me, right with some some also, you know, some extras, but you're gonna be doing their own thing.
Speaker 2Yeah, hopefully anyway, send us pictures from Beyonce.

Speaker 2Versions of people.
Speaker 6Now is not what made New York great the many many years ago.
Speaker 5Yeah, the New York that you see before you this is like Midwest.
It's not really New York.
Speaker 7But that's, in my opinion, what New York has always been.
Speaker 5No, New York has always conglomerate of melting pot of people from all over the world.
Speaker 2Yes, now you were cooler.
Speaker 5Now it feels like rich people or people whose parents pay for everything who come here and now they're the face of the West Village.
Speaker 2And it's like, that's not what I say.
Speaker 7But when was it?
When was it not that though?
Speaker 2The nineties?
Speaker 13When was it so you're telling me back then it wasn't the same type of people come in here.
Speaker 5Why in their flags, this is what New York is, Harlem flat Bush was flat white.
