Podcasting. But Make It Fashion!
Fashion Designer Sylvia Robinson Joins This episode of MinorityPlus1 Podcast to share the gritty realness of forging a path in the fashion world! Though Brittany's chair is empty this week, our banter fills the room with a promise of her spicy commentary upon her return. Special guest Sylvia Robinson shares what made her fall in love with fashion. Her creative process & What the future of fashion is looking like with the possible AI influence. We don't just stop at chuckles—prepare for an unflinching look at the dark corners of inappropriate teacher-student relationships, where we underscore the critical need for boundaries and professional integrity within our education system.
From the perseverance of a fashion show producer amid personal tribulations to the uproarious anecdotes about sexual etiquette, this episode is a mosaic of human experience. We even take a moment to muse on the transformative power of Muay Thai and the motivational push we sometimes seek from friends or partners. Tune in for an eclectic blend of hearty laughter, soul-stirring confessions, and thought-provoking dialogues that mirror the myriad hues of life's tapestry.

Speaker 2:I failed day one, so I mean it should happen, sam. All right, so On the road to recovery. All right, I'm just going to get this out the way now. I am very, very in a I don't want to say bad mood, I don't want to say somber, because I'm neither happy nor sad. I'm in a very neutral state.
Speaker 3:Does that make sense? You're in between emotions.
Speaker 2:I'm really in between emotions while riding like other emotions. It's fucking weird. I think I'm really going through a midlife crisis. I mean, you're way too young.
Speaker 3:I always thought midlife crisis started at like 40. Because most people live, you know, to the like 80. I'm almost 40. I turned 38 this year, Sam.
Speaker 2:I know, I know, but that's not 40.
Speaker 3:Like if you saw some grace bro.
Speaker 2:So I'm trying to age yourself.
Speaker 4:And you don't look a day I'm a crotchety old man.
Speaker 2:You don't look a day over 33.
Speaker 3:That is very true. I used to look stunning?
Speaker 2:Yeah, from my age, but not. It's just the simple fact that I'm not. It's just the simple fact is I? This is the first time I actually failed when I actually was like I'm going to do it, and this is the first time I didn't do it and I failed immediately, like it was like that day I did it.
Speaker 3:I don't know what it was Well some go view that to that right, yeah, but that's like that's not the point, though I know, the point is to even whatever happens, no matter what, whatever drives you there, you're supposed to just like Right back to what the fuck I do, what I'm used to doing, and I'm mad at myself about it.
Speaker 2:But I'm not going to sit there and be like you know what. I'm going to wait another month. This time, eventually, I'm going to fucking do it. I just have to work through whatever is going on in my little noggin right now. It's been this past week seriously Like I've been. As you guys can tell, I'm not hyper, I'm none of that shit. Today I'm not going to raise my voice. I am very, very just in a mind state to where I need to really figure this shit out. Mm-hmm, because I don't know Like I had an epiphany even at the drive-through yesterday, which drive-through I was Ducking.
Speaker 2:No, I'm sorry, it was that. Well, first off, all these Dunkin' Donuts employees need to get fired and replaced. Oh my God, I mean okay.
Speaker 3:It shouldn't take me 10 minutes to get a large hot two and two Before we go on a tangent, because we know we could do that.
Speaker 3:I mean, I low-key, feel the same way, but it's only kids working there and they don't give a shit. It's like when I was their age. I had my first job. I cared, I was there on time, I did my job. Like, these kids don't give a shit, and that's why it's nothing but kids' work. You do see, I haven't seen an adult work at Fast Food Joy in so many years.
Speaker 2:Well, I was at Popeyes right and I haven't had the drive-through. No, I went in this time.
Speaker 3:Which one? The one at Albany?
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's the ghetto-ish one bro, you talking about the one over near the airport right In Westgate. That shit is ghetto-ish. Five, yeah, I no duh.
Speaker 3:No, I mean like so ghetto. My brother's on my brothers are twins. They're aunt or twins and one of the twins, aunt, works there and she's been there since I've been 10. And she's still cashier and she's a nasty. I'm gonna say she's nasty as hell.
Speaker 3:She's got short hair Like basically no hair. That was her. She's the most miserable, nastiest person. Smokes like 800 new ports yeah, that was her. Every time I talk about that McDonald's, I tell people about her and they be like she's the one. At the same, they be like yeah, I know who you talking about. Yeah, I know who you talking about. She just served me.
Speaker 2:Yo, like I ain't going to fight, I spent $20 on a four piece and it was awful.
Speaker 3:Popeyes, really it was.
Speaker 2:I never have bad experiences with Popeyes, ever.
Speaker 3:Ever, ever, ever. It's never happened. I don't feel the best after I eat it, right, but I never felt Dury is always good.
Speaker 2:Not even Dury. I couldn't even enjoy it, it was just bad. It was bad and I was like and then I listened to somebody spend $60. And I go what the fuck am I doing here?
Speaker 3:They literally get in a whole meal for the family.
Speaker 2:There's no way. No, Sam, it was like two meals and something else. It wasn't enough. Because you heard about this shit with five guys right, a burger, a small fry, a small drink is $25. No, it is, yeah, it's fucking no, it's actually, actually I think it's more.
Speaker 3:I think it's like 30, because I went there to get a small cheeseburger with the works, the small Cajun fry that's a little bit more than regular fries and a drink Regular size drink. It was $32. Yeah, it's ridiculous.
Speaker 2:Yeah, anybody telling you that it's cheaper to not eat healthy or go grocery shopping? I don't know who. Who's speaking to you, because this shit is out. It's a struggle of fucking control.
Speaker 3:But uh, we're gonna move a little fast, say because we kind of got a guess. Later, hopefully we can get her on A little bit surprised. We'll get there. But let's get into some minority support. So my know we support segment we do. Will read listeners, comments and questions.
Speaker 3:This week was actually on my Instagram because every week I share a few clips of the episode of the pod Produce make a Jew play the game. Give me the first one, yes. A shout out to Ashley. Her Instagram handle is black dot, white dot, full of gray, and last week we had Elysia on and it was the Episode was called loved after 30. We're talking about relationships and the clips.
Speaker 3:She's kind of talking about how boys, in her opinion that young boys are raised to accept rejection. Right, and Ashley puts can't say I agree, but I have to listen to the whole episode. Boys aren't taught how to properly handle rejection. We see this in violence against women. You can't even be ignore. You can't even ignore being catcalled without being called the bitch or worse. And I said you ain't never lie. We've come on here, steve, me and Brittany ourselves have come on here and told our experiences about how you know guys are cat calling you rejected dude and they call you. I told you I've been spit on, I've been called a bitch dudes, I've tried to fight me and look, I'm not different, I'm never gonna disagree with one.
Speaker 2:I saw just, even in fucking recently, even at the job. I'm fucking saying, and this is a young girl, she just starts, and this fucking guy, he was already told no once. And let him know like. And let him know like hey, you know, I'm only 18, he's still fucking trying. It's like yo nigga get the fuck out, fucking pig. Like go bro, just take the fucking L and leave. Yeah, like this is what I'm saying because I don't support those motherfuckers like Either. Like I understand and the only reason why, like I'm right there with what she's saying, but I it really does come down to the fact, like being able to deal with the rejection. Like men just really just need to just accept the fucking no. For what? It is.
Speaker 2:There's a. You can tell the difference between a no, yeah, try a little harder.
Speaker 3:So if boys were taught rejection like Alicia feels like they they are right, that was her opinion Then what Ashley's saying would be wrong and then most boys, like you're saying, could handle rejection, Won't get violent and won't get nasty. But people don't teach them rejection. Most of the time young boys are taught. You know it depends. You know I can't really say it's different everybody's household. You know I'm not a boy so I don't know. My mom taught my brothers to be good to women. Your mom could be like yo. There's mothers out here. Be like slight those bitches out, son, like my mom was bitch, slapped me.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but you know saying fuck those bitches, they're bitter within it. We don't know. It's different everybody, how's it not? Yeah, that's about it for him, produce me.
Speaker 3:You go to the next slide and this comes from black hip hippie Ricky. He said I can't deny some men definitely react to rejection in a highly disgusting way, 100% For real. I've witnessed it more growing up than I do now, but I'm aware and I probably just surround myself with men that wouldn't be violent over rejection. However, that's not being discussed is how. What's not being discussed is how women handle rejection worse than men in some cases.
Speaker 3:I've seen everything from false criminal accusation, property damage, stalking, rumors that might get him harmed or even spearhead, spearheading rumors, that of a man's sexuality that I've heard. These other ones I'm sure listen, I'm sure it happens. I women, all the time I'm, give out false criminal accusation, sexual, false sexual accusations, all the fucking time. Property damage usually. I always equated the property damage is, like you know, she may call him cheating or he's answering his phone, but we don't know, we don't know. But that is, that is an opinion Property, stalking, rumors that might get him harmed or even spearheading sexual out. That's a huge one. The sexuality when most women feel like, if you don't want me, like if you didn't you want me, he must be gay and that's not true. Like you can have options.
Speaker 2:Not sure me. Yeah, you're not allowed to have options, you know you've had four weeks.
Speaker 3:None of us are monoliths, so you can't cast. You can't cast a wide net with all of this. People need to learn how to handle rejection Overall, not just women or men. I was taught myself, I was. I was taught myself, but didn't get good at it until my late 20s. I've never been violent, but I've definitely been better, yep which I love this guy right there he, he acknowledged he took accountability. And before that message I wrote I think everybody men, women, men, women, boys, girls need to be taught about rejection.
Speaker 3:Yeah how to handle rejection. Absolutely, because he's absolutely right and Ashley's absolutely right Participate. You can go to the next slide. Let's see. Did I read this one? Okay, I need to listen to the episode. I think this was before that one. So sorry guys, if I got it, switch. This is black hippie Ricky. Again, he said I need to listen to the full episode to get the full context of this conversation.
Speaker 3:However, I'm not rolling with the narrative that young boys were taught to handle rejection because they were supposed to stay with one person. The reason we had to learn how to handle rejection was simply because girls, ultimately, are making the decision on whether you're going to be together or Go out, etc. The whole idea of shivery is allowing the woman, our girl, to confirm Asking to prom, asking to go on dates, etc. So there isn't a bunch of boys slash men out here bugging. That's that's why we learned how to accept rejection. That's the right way to learn. Absolutely like to let the girl kind of Leave into what she wants. You know, consent, things like that. But unfortunately not everybody's raised that way and and I think, even if you're raised that way, maybe you're insecure and you can't, or you're a narcissist and you can't understand why that person don't want to be with you, so you lie, shout.
Speaker 2:I don't think that's a narcissist. I just think that that's more of Secure. It has to be an insecurity. I think we keep mistaking narcissists for insecurity. Yeah, I think, because I am insecure. At times I'm very insecure and you know, sometimes what we didn't talk about is sometimes how women do the rejecting. You know, sometimes that could because what do you mean?
Speaker 3:We do we always reject? I'm saying no, so I'm just talking about no in giving the rejection out, like sometimes.
Speaker 2:I've seen some of this was like it, get the fuck away from me. Like, like it's very rude kind of stuff, yeah, and it's difficult not to. It's difficult not to right be like you know what? Yeah, yes, there's women that conduct themselves that way.
Speaker 3:But I swear to you, steve, and I could be wrong. I swear a lot of that shit that we see it's like for a reaction, like it's fake, it's not real, because most women and I'm gonna even just include myself mostly are afraid of men like our. You know, I have a fear of men. I don't Trust them and I think every dude is a creep. So I try my hardest. And then my bad experiences. I've been, you know, my sexual soul I just had really bad experience with.
Speaker 3:So for me, we've talked about on the pod you almost have to be nice and what, rejecting these dudes because you run the wrist and then punch you straight in your face. We're getting hit with a brick, dead ass or getting bit in the face and Lou almost losing a fucking eye. Anyway, is it all right? This is my eve. Who is this? You know it's my aunt. This is tea. What I'm saying? Teresa, teresa, oh, cuz it's tea, tea, teresa. How you say your last name? I'm Jardino Jardino. You want to read this? I can't. This year, this year, this year, this year, I see it and I'll read it Okay.
Speaker 3:So what's her name? Teresa, teresa, teresa wrote, writes, and it all depends in the same, on the same clothes, she said it all depends on how you're raised biblically, you're committing adultery, having sex outside of the marriage point blank period, and with a lot of you black.
Speaker 2:Friends.
Speaker 3:That was a lot of my black friends, their culture was to get sex and to get it early, Even though they come from Christian home. So it all depends and I said I think that goes for all races on Teresa.
Speaker 2:Yes, I think she took that more of like from a hip-hop culture kind of thing. So I'm only gonna, I'm only gonna Know. So this is where, sam, this is where this is where, when somebody doesn't have like the full picture, can get something wrong.
Speaker 3:No, she's older.
Speaker 2:Yeah, she's not Also Bible thumper and she's very much into her religion.
Speaker 3:Everything she kind of anytime she's ever Responded with shout out to Aunt Teresa. I appreciate you watching. Appreciate the comments.
Speaker 4:Yeah, even though I may not agree with everyone's comments.
Speaker 3:I'm still gonna read it. But, um, she always kind of incorporates the Bible and always and she always will. All right, y'all. So that was my.
Speaker 2:She said you blacks have been fucking so, yeah, I mean to be fucking she was well, she was specific. I honestly think it was specifically Towards hip-hop.
Speaker 3:I believe it cuz I mean that was the issue of hip-hop in the early 90s With the video Vic sins and the lyrics and stuff like that. They always felt like the promoter sex way too much. And then you know TLC came through with don't go chasing waterfalls talking about you know how protect the sex is shit, so they can't say it's all bad.
Speaker 2:Well, of course, sam I mean, but let's let's be honest, though. Like when was the last time you even heard a song with the message like Of you condoms like let's serious all we always get.
Speaker 3:We're in the dark ages. Sam, this is the other reason why I got depressed we are in a dark age of music Real, no Sam.
Speaker 2:I'm good, sam. I know you'll be excited. I know you said it's. Apparently the rise of new metal is coming back. Are you serious, dead serious? Apparently there was like a country was making.
Speaker 3:No country's making a very big come back besides, like Beyonce being in that market, which is bring. No matter if you like it or not, she's bringing a huge, she's a fucking make a star. She's bringing attention to it. There's so many good black artists in country now, but now country's getting like. I think it's like they said, it's a number one genre on iTunes right now.
Speaker 2:Yeah, another big guy is number one for like jelly roll. Yeah he's, he helped, you know he used to.
Speaker 3:You know he's the robot 36 mafia. Really he was originally Like in their group. Yeah, you know, they always have like passion packed the outside people. That's why people, we, that's why we fuck with him because he's Tennessee. Yeah, I didn't know that.
Speaker 2:I knew he was like. I knew he was like around. I know he did. He dabbles in hip-hop and stuff like that. I Knew him from rap. I didn't know he's saying country.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I didn't know that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:He rolled with 36 of them. Okay, that makes sense, all right. Well, yeah, young go. 36 man, 36 minute above the head of the curve forever.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but new metal man.
Speaker 2:Apparently they had this fucking festival. It sold out in like 30 minutes. All metal, all new metal bands, fucking the Limp biscuits, the coin you know how happy I would be if they had like.
Speaker 3:So you know, I have Coachella and they have lovers and friends out in Vegas. Well, all the old you know hip-hop, yeah, early 2000s, if they had something like that for the from.
Speaker 2:They do when it's already sold out.

That's that you know you can't wait for this. And Steve yo is me, steven, one other black person there. We all we talked about on the pod you gotta give the.
Speaker 2:I forgot which one it was.
Speaker 3:It was only three black people, that shit, and we were a little, I was lit.
Speaker 2:I was fucked up rocking out.
Speaker 3:Yeah, oh my god, and corn is son.

Speaker 3:The past so this is a new metal compilation concert coming out.
Speaker 2:It's just like all like the Limp biscuits, the visit a concert, yeah, it's a whole festival when I don't know. Hold that thought because so, sam, yes, we have another lovely guest today. Yeah, we have special, special.
Speaker 3:If you know anything about Albany's fashion scene Models, you know who this person is, and I know nothing about either. So our guest today is Sylvia Robinson.
Speaker 2:Thank you for coming on, miss Sylvia.
Speaker 3:Of course, of course really thank you for coming on. I know you just got done with practice because you have a show coming up soon in April, right yeah?
Speaker 5:April 13, washington Park. Bo house. Blackboard the bow house. I've been yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:So I'm glad so you reached out and I was so happy because, honestly, girl, you're like one of the legends in Albany. I've done one of your shows before. She does very like flashy on vanguard, like fashion, right, and if you get into, if anyone in Albany models they've modeled in one of Sylvia shows oh sure, that's what. So yeah, so I wanted to ask what even got you into fashion?
Speaker 5:Oh Well, I started actually making clothes because my height, you know, I'm like I was younger and my mom seven kids and like it was hard to get, you know, clothes that fit by body to height, you know, cold. So my aunt and my mom and my sister, the nuns in the community and I'd just like they have home economics in school and I started learning out of so from different organizations and family members of especially one of my eyes, and Then I was able to start making clothes for myself, you know, and I I Just went from there that's been making clothes every cent, yeah so how long have you been in the fashion industry per se, such as working with models, making clothes, things of that nature?
Speaker 5:Um, I say 30 years, but it might be a little over 30, but about 30 wow, that's older than me.
Speaker 2:Yo, you keep, yo keep snuggling it out bro.
Speaker 5:It's been a long time. It's been a very long time but, I, actually started young ladies in the community.
Speaker 5:You know, I didn't really like pick. Look for that model that was Five, ten, six feet. No, I really started working with young ladies building self esteem, you know, teaching them to etiquette of fashion, etiquette of modeling, you know, taking them on a roll and introducing them to a different scenery so far as a model and a model in the world. But yeah, I really I do like my shows are different. I don't really do runway shows. I like to. I do runway shows but I like doing more theatrical shows.
Speaker 3:I like telling this yeah, it's almost like a performance art, like what you do.
Speaker 5:Yeah, so that don't require. I mean, I never turned anyone down on my runway at all. And you come to me, I try to work with you, you know, and you willing to learn, and you willing to work with me, I'm willing to work with you.
Speaker 2:That's awesome.
Speaker 3:You're definitely ahead of your time as far as with the inclusivity, because that I feel like only kind of popped off in the fashion world, like only a few years ago, where people are allowing plus size models and you know, shorter models, thicker models, and you're definitely ahead of your time.
Speaker 5:I've never done a show without folk for the models. I always looked for folk for the models, cause like I make my clothes, I make my clothes specifically for the individual.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah. So what difficulties have you run across being a black designer, black woman designer? Do you feel like you're not taken seriously enough? Or you know you get your fashions out there and they don't like it. And you know, respectfully, steve, the skinny white girl, do the same fashions and they gon' buy it, like something like that. Well, you know what?
Speaker 5:I'm saying I never really had a problem because, like you said, I'm a guard and like I really made my clothes in the wrong way, I really made my clothes for other ladies to fold the shoes, to photographers and just thinking out of the box. But I really never had no problem, like no matter what city I go in, what state I go in, they love my God.
Speaker 3:You. It sounds like you made a way Like no one you know. You didn't accept no closed doors in your face. You're like I make a way. I don't even gotta make a door, i'ma make my way. That's how I do it and that's why you never had that problem.
Speaker 5:Yeah, I build my own platforms and I share them. But I build my own platforms and I'm really good, so to work with anybody, I'm willing to work with anybody who's willing to work with me. But I create my own platforms and I share my platforms with other people. But yeah.
Speaker 2:So all right, I have a question and with this might be a little like out there, but I think you might see where I'm going. With the emergence of like AI and things of that nature, do you see, as somebody in the fashion industry, do you see at any point where models having physical models being slowly phased out for AI, ai, for basically the new technology that basically makes women just look basically like?
Speaker 3:What you want. What you want Like you no longer need physical models. You'll no longer need the physical models.
Speaker 2:Do you think that'll affect the fashion industry more than people will let on?
Speaker 5:It may. Yeah, I can see it happening, but so far as for physical shows, no, you need human bodies.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you need moving, like you said, moving bodies.
Speaker 5:You need moving bodies for maybe not for the internet, maybe not for the internet, but definitely for runway shows.
Speaker 3:Excuse me, you're gonna need physical models for that Okay, cause you definitely want to see how the like you said movement of the bodies, how the garments are gonna flow, and you're only gonna see that on a live person.
Speaker 5:Right, yeah, but the way AI is working, you'll be able to see that online. But for entertainment, for people to actually come out and enjoy the show, I don't think that's gonna affect the outfit.
Speaker 3:The only thing I think it might actually work in the designer's favor, cause you don't have to pay the models.
Speaker 4:Right, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3:You don't have to pay the creator to create a bottle you know a look you want and then it just then they get to model your product and that's it. You don't have to pay multiple models and different salaries.
Speaker 5:Yeah, that's all, but I always think it's gonna take away so far as a person designing the clothes.
Speaker 2:So, all right, I'm not into fashion, right? I think and again, this is please do not take this personal, this is just my own personal thing I think fashion is that's gotta say. I think fashion's a scam. I am just curious as to what am I personally missing with fashion? Because I don't understand people spending X amount of dollars on this shirt because somebody says that it's fashionable, while something just like it costs $3 or whatever, but it's not labeled. It's not labeled, it's not fashion. I don't like this. All right, does money equate to fashion?
Speaker 5:No, because it all depends on individual, because you can take something that was $2 and make it look like it was $1,000.
Speaker 3:That's a fact. It's how you style it.
Speaker 5:People just how you style it. That's a mindset when people focus on labels Okay all right again.
Speaker 2:This is my ignorance. I am not Mr Fashion Forward. If I could, I would wear nothing but sneakers, jeans and a hoodie every day of my life, and that's your fashion Right, but style is definitely different than fashion, right?
Speaker 3:You could have fashionable stuff on right, like you could have all Versace and you look trash, but if you style it differently like the $2, $3 shirt, like you say you could look like a million bucks. So with style, you just gotta have it. It's not. I don't think that's something you could teach Style.
Speaker 2:You know what. You're correct, because I, yeah, no, I think you're right, All right. So how would somebody like me? Like, because, trust me, everybody's tried, Everybody's tried with me.
Speaker 3:We be trying to hook Steve up. Y'all We've been trying to get him nice. I don't get it.
Speaker 2:I just don't get the need to look super nice.
Speaker 3:I just don't understand crazy, that sounds weird, that sounds weird.
Speaker 5:It all depends on when you go and choose Not gonna go to a perfect carpet event with sneakers and jeans right, I will.
Speaker 2:I'll be there with my hat backwards like yo, what up, that's true.
Speaker 3:And then we will have to tell Steve like Steve, I know you're not going in like that Like what are you doing?
Speaker 5:So you don't have a suit, you don't have shoes in there. I have none of those you got a woman that's on the side to shoe him that.
Speaker 3:That would be a bit A woman might be and we do as his friends, as his female friends. We do, we are the. He don't listen. That's the problem, your hard head. You don't listen because we try to tell you.
Speaker 5:I'm telling you, but this is between a woman and a female friend. This is our relationship and y'all about to go to a five-star restaurant. She'll make them fast. Don't make them get dressed, you just put on your sneakers, you can also put on your suit with some sneakers, there are certain types of what. But you know that right. Still, you go, put on a suit and sneakers and look nice.
Speaker 3:That's so true If the suit fit you right, like because you do the tailoring and stuff too, which is the best. Like people don't understand tailoring is so important because it's to your specific body type, like you see Jennifer Lopez in these chicks and how everything fits them nice. They didn't just buy that off the rack, they get that thing tailored.
Speaker 2:Well, all right, I want to come to my own defense real quick. It's not like I dress like a complete bum, but like. So I will tell you, the best dress that I've ever dressed to myself was back when it was cool to wear jeans with the right kind of dress, shoes and a black button-up and a black blazer. Oh my God, that was my, that was my go-to the early 2000s business casual look.
Speaker 2:Yes, that was me max. That was my max. All right, steve, I thought I was fashionable and I wasn't, I mean at the time.
Speaker 3:You were right, Like at the, you were at the time. Yeah, oh, okay, that was the style back then going to the club business casual with the blazers and chits.
Speaker 5:Don't, don't feel bad. I used to put my, I put the heel guard in the box.
Speaker 3:When I get to the club, girl, I put it on my sneakers. Yes, no, for real. I remember going to the club with the blazer and the peplum skirt, looking like I just got out the office, going to the club like that.
Speaker 2:Fair enough, that was the style back then I just have to stop. Honestly, I'm just a curmudgeon. I don't like change. I'm very, I'm very Like. Ehh, keep that away from me. What do you mean? That's fact Like, I don't get it. Like the last person to really dress me up was our producer and I ain't going front. He Home run, all right. I bagged Shorty with the outfit he picked out, so I guess you know I just have to go with it.
Speaker 3:Right, I ain't round of. No pause for this guy.
Speaker 5:But the type of shows that I do. You would enjoy my shows, because my shows is like a play.
Speaker 2:That's awesome.
Speaker 5:Like seeing my clothing tell a story. You know what I mean. Yeah, I think that's really awesome.
Speaker 3:I love that because I've heard that from stylists. They're like, when you put something on, you want to tell a story, you want to express yourself, and that's one thing they always say I love that.
Speaker 5:So so you know I'm going back. This is like you might even know. Ebony Fashion Fair used to come to the Capitol District and I remember going to one of the Ebony Fashion Fair shows and it wasn't really the clothes that caught my attention, it was the way the models was moving and telling the story, with the clothing, with the music and just. I think to me, to go to a fashion show in a straight runway is boring to me. I will go, but have you been a fashion week before.
Speaker 3:Yes, I have. Yeah, and you feel like it's like boring Certain shows.
Speaker 5:I like the underground shows of fashion.
Speaker 3:I hear about that, that there's fashion week with all the upper echelon brands and then there's like this underground. That's the way. Yeah, like the real up and coming designers.
Speaker 5:The underground shows. Is this more lit? Yeah, it's more practical, it's just different.
Speaker 3:It's really you must got the plug because I hear is you can't really get them underground. It's like they're not like easy to find.
Speaker 5:No, yeah, do the other shows. Oh see quite a few underground shows, yeah.
Speaker 3:I be trying to go. I've never been to fashion week or anything. I would like to go one year. But I've tried to Google like where's those kind of shows? And they just give you regular fashion week. So I feel like you got to know someone, I think, I think so.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I actually do have one more question though.
Speaker 5:Well, you're going to be in fashion week. Even if you go be outside of in the vicinity, you're going to enjoy the fashion week. Yeah, you got to meet people, see people, people going to be passing out flyers for the underground shows yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:So I have one question what is some of like you're getting ready for your show? What is the hardest thing to prep for, I know, is it trying to find the right music, getting the the like. What are the main difficulties that you're dealing with getting a show ready? Because I don't think people understand like putting on a freaking show I don't know. Like in my head. Yeah, everybody is saying the same time. You know what I say.
Speaker 5:A fashion show and a fashion production is totally two different things.
Speaker 2:OK.
Speaker 5:And when you're dealing with 30 girls, you're dealing with 30 personalities. You got to make 30 girls feel good about themselves. You got to practice. They come to practice because it's like a play. You got to come to personal in order for you to learn the scenes that you're going to be in. Ok, and that's hard. And then staying up all night. I say up all night when I say I stay up all night. I stay up all night Because I make clothes to fit the young ladies that's in my production. You understand what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:You make every piece personally.
Speaker 5:Every single piece Wow.
Speaker 3:How many times have you told yourself this is my last show. I'm fucking down with you, bitches this is my last show, I'm so done. She said that shit tonight, didn't she?
Speaker 5:It happened two years ago. My dad got in an accident and I was planning for a show. So, yeah, I got killed in the car accident two weeks before the show. Yeah, and it was thank God for the models that I worked with Simone, maxine and Liz. They just took over the OGs. I love those girls.
Speaker 3:For that show. I gave them all my clothes.
Speaker 5:So I'm starting over again, sam. Oh, wow, wow, look at you. 25 girls in each of them is three to four things a piece, so I'm making like you had to measure all of them right down the measurement.
Speaker 3:Just, oh, my gosh girl, so I do it. How long have you been doing this? All right, so.
Speaker 2:I do it. How long does it take? Per piece that you have to make on average, give or take, how long would it take?
Speaker 5:You can really go by scenes more than I go by my. I go by my scenes, but I can. It all depends. Like this show I'm really working on doing quality versus quantity, okay, yeah, so, um, it's taking me longer and I'm telling you. I'm saying I'm getting a fog, I'm getting up for some reason.
Speaker 2:I don't know, this is my age. You probably got a whole bunch of stuff going on right now. Yeah, I can see it in your face.
Speaker 5:And this, this show was like it's gonna be so nice though I'm saying I put my whole heart into this show, my baby, if you're not going to do it right, don't do it at all. So I had to watch it in part. Bowen House I got a book signing with Barbara Thompson I'm a Yana, I'm a C is doing the doing the hair. We got a hair show going on and you like, look at my face? Yeah, I'm a full shoe recently and I got Carla. Carla Jordan is coming up from Atlanta. Anna cops is showcasing her clothes. She make like Jerry clothing. So we're doing red carpet, we're doing food, we're doing drinks, we're doing vendors.
Speaker 4:This is nice Jazz reception.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:That's why I like her shows, because, like she said, it's a whole production, like it's just not some skinny ass model walking, you know walking.
Speaker 5:Girl salmon. They doing a thing, you know they always do.
Speaker 3:Yo, I finished. I've been in like you're my second, like you're my third show. I tried. So I did audition for Sylvia show and walked and she's she's like Tyra, like you need to walk Smiles on it. It's like drilling right. Unfortunately I think you, like you said your father in the accent and COVID happened, so I couldn't participate.
Speaker 5:But I was not bringing out before COVID came. I had planned on bringing COVID hurt me, yeah, cause I'm like a different. It's like I'm like a DJ. I put on shows for the people, so you know people wasn't coming in. I was getting ready to bring fashion week to the Capitol.
Speaker 3:We need that.
Speaker 5:I was. When I say I was so hurt I wouldn't cope with it. I was lost. I didn't know what I was going to do. Yeah, because I really don't sell my clothes, I know. I mean I make this for people, but I'm gonna stop saying that because this show here I don't care. Whatever you see on the runway, you can have, I don't care. But, um, yeah, so, yeah. So after COVID here I was lost. I didn't know which way to go. I didn't go back to school for body sculpture.
Speaker 3:She's like I'm gonna get a bag somewhere. Okay, like I cannot.
Speaker 5:I wasn't happy. And then, when my dad passed away and I gave away all my stuff, sam, I was so miserable, not selling Right. Wow, I say, I was Sam, I was miserable. And then I kept trying to put together a show and I kept.
Speaker 2:I think we might have lost her. Hold on one sec. Okay, you're back.
Speaker 5:Yeah, okay. So I was lost on COVID and then, after my dad passed away, I was so miserable. I lost my girlfriend, but I was just miserable, not selling, I was miserable. Yeah, he was like get tired from you know. Um, so for this show, I still love it. When I put some on a mannequin I'd be like, oh, this look like so, and so this look like yaya, this look like gender. You know what I mean? Yeah, so now you definitely forward to this show.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'm looking forward to it too and like I love that you know you found your love back again for someone, because sometimes I get at the moment you like I can't do this, I'm done. I was, COVID destroyed me. I can't do this. But you know you went back to your first love, what really truly made and sometimes you don't even know that truly makes you happy until you stop doing it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's why I started podcasting again until you stop the same thing. Like I started it, I stopped it and then I said, oh my God, how much I miss it. And it's the same thing Because, like yo, there's days I want to, I don't want to come in here and I'm just like yo, I don't want to do this. But then when you actually sit down and you like you know what, you just start going and you just start getting into your bag and then, yeah, for that particular moment, no matter what's going on in your life, you're doing the thing that brings you joy. So I think that's awesome.
Speaker 3:And that's all we all I imagine everybody aspires to do is to find that one thing that brings them joy, and it doesn't feel like work, it's just enjoyment, because I found it.
Speaker 2:I was just telling Sam, like earlier, like I'm going through my own little like where do I go from here? Kind of thing right now, and like, honestly, you, sharing your story, kind of you know, just reaffirmed that I'm doing the right thing with the show. So you inspired me without you even knowing it. I just want to let you know that right now, because you know you. You you have been doing this for 30 years. You have kept going and going, no matter what has happened in your life. You have stayed true to the thing that you know, you love and I'm telling you right now I was personally inspired by that. So I want to just thank you because I ain't going, for I was in a very, very cranky mood.
Speaker 5:You gotta just keep going. Yeah, gotta keep going. Yeah, gotta keep going.
Speaker 3:This is why we do it.
Speaker 5:Yeah, time is good to take a break, but when you take a break and you don't want to take a break and you keep saying what am I doing, I like, you feel like, why am I even existing? Yeah, you know no, for real.
Speaker 3:But before I let you go, you want to just tell the dates Just run back again what you're going to have at the show and everything before you.

Speaker 3:Wait, hold on. So why was he sweating?
Speaker 2:Because he was nervous. That's it. There's just pure nerves. You got to watch the movie.
Speaker 3:I remember his character being, like you know, a little punk, because Jennifer and in the first one Jennifer answers character and she was a dentist His boss was like sexually harassing him which was hilarious.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's hilarious, it's happening to a man.
Speaker 3:Yeah, no, it was because she was hot and no one. No, it was because she was hot and no, it was wrong. But what I'm saying is the gag was is Jennifer Anderson cursing and being like fuck my slutty little mouth, like?
Speaker 4:that's just so funny.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, don't get it switched off.
Speaker 3:Look, I thought it was sexy and people thought she, you know cause she's hot, they're like remember they were clowning him. He was like she's just fuck her, like what the? Fuck and he's like no, I love my wife. I want to be a husband, or like, yeah, god forbid.

Speaker 5:Yeah, motherfucking, jones.
Speaker 3:Yeah, all right. Wow, so you want to get into shame game? Yeah, let's do that, cause I have a really funny one. So we're just going through the segments y'all. So shame game is a segment. We do shame and gang. You know what, though? Hold on, yeah, shame gang. I just say. I said game. Oh, shame gang like gang gang. Shame gang is segment we do, where we shame a video. We feel like it needs to be shamed.
Speaker 2:Actually it's more like shame gang, like the chain gang, which means we lock in these motherfuckers up with the other shameful people that they should be locked up with, that's fine, that's all right.
Speaker 3:Got you Gang gang, but listen. So, like I said, we play a video that we think. I think this should be shamed. Producer Bay, could you so, before you play that, shout out to baller alert for the for the clip.
Speaker 4:Get the draws off and they laying down in the bed. Let me take my draws off. You know what I'm saying. Like, I don't like that. I feel violated when I'm laying down like this you bought the. You know what I'm saying. You pulling my draws. I got a little like this on that. I like when a woman, when I grab a woman draw, they look for you got me. They're trying to pull my draws on. Don't pull my motherfucking draws off. Let me take them off. Don't do that, no more. I have another day. I said damn she take. So you gotta think about you got I got to lift up there. You put I got to lift my feet up. You take it on my feet. Damn baby. Don't do me like that Violation. Don't take my draws off, baby. No, goddamn more, I'm not fucking draws off shit. I don't like that. Like that, I suppose to take off the panties. Don't take my mother draws off. No, I got to do this. Yeah, I get it on my feet. All right, this will keep one leg in, fuck, no.
Speaker 3:That went on All right. What's your opinion? You think this should be shamed.
Speaker 2:I'm struggling whether he enjoys it or not, I don't she's complaining about something, but he's actually doing it. He's actually doing it.
Speaker 3:He's literally complaining about something. He's doing it right now, I think. Don't you think this went on a little too long? Like yeah, I don't like when women take your underwear off, but like you're really passionate about this. I don't know.
Speaker 2:I can't front because I really like his fit, like the clothes, I mean what?
Speaker 3:does that have to do with the?
Speaker 2:subject at hand. It just flows very well. I like the color. Okay, he looks nice. I guess you know what my man. I might have to put you in the shame gang along with Sam simply because, dude, you didn't like it once. It seems like he keeps allowing it Right.
Speaker 4:Well, so if you don't like it, just say it.
Speaker 3:Maybe, Right, how is he first? All right.
Speaker 2:Not that I need to know, but how I describe. I don't know if he said that he's laying.
Speaker 3:He's laying down and he's closed. I guess I'm assuming he has his boxers on and the girl is pulling the underwear off for him instead of him doing himself. He said he doesn't like that because it's weird. He got a lift up and it makes him feel emasculated. But I just felt like the reason why I wanted to shame this. I don't think any guy straight had a real sexual oh no one gives a damn thought this thoroughly about it. Not like that.
Speaker 3:To the point. Yes, to put it on a podcast, real for Instagram, Like I don't think any regular heterosexual male thought that deep into it. Yeah, unless you want to correct me.
Speaker 2:I don't know if you can't personally, I personally just want anybody taking jobs off at this point Get them off. Let's go. Come on, hey, you or me, yeah. Because either I'm going to either I'm going to kick them off or you just going to take them and then you got to throw them. If we're going to do this, let's do it. Let's have fun. I want you to take my draws off and he felt.
Speaker 2:I guess he say he feels emasculated, but I think that's so bizarre because he compared it to how a woman looks when you see, there's a difference. First off, she's not trying to. Maybe it's just me. I try to take draws off sexy. I try to be like you know.
Speaker 3:You know I'm kissing around it while I'm taking it, sam, can I get in my back? All right, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2:You're happily in a relationship right now.
Speaker 3:I'm going to have to fantasize. Sometimes you just got the days you used to get it.
Speaker 2:You know what I'm going to let that slide. You know when you're pulling it and then you kissing around it every night again. It's slow and sensual, unless you're one of those ladies who's like come on, just get right to it.
Speaker 3:I'm sorry. I like for play. You're strong enough to rip them. You know how in the movies they had to not if I had to. That material is pretty tough to rip.
Speaker 2:I don't know if I'll be able to get the whole thing like, like, yeah, but not like Hulk Hogan. No like, but if like you know like if it's like the mesh ones I can get my fingers in there the lace. Yeah, the lace I get in there. Just tear the mesh you know for you.
Speaker 3:I know you ain't beginning to match it again.
Speaker 2:I only I only deal with women who don't wear draws. It's like I'm just kidding, it's not the same. But I don't have these issues these are these just sound like issues that people.
Speaker 3:That's the part where I want to shame. You should be happy that you're getting laid, you know what Sam?
Speaker 2:Shame gang. He is shamed gang. You're shame gang, call me.
Speaker 3:Do you guys agree? And it's not a negative thing, it's not a negative.
Speaker 2:This isn't like oh, I just think, but yeah, you should be able to pull that. That's not that big.
Speaker 3:I just think that certain people shouldn't have pockets, and they may say the same about us, but, like why would I want to? Listen to that.
Speaker 2:Especially coming from the shit that comes out of our mouth.
Speaker 3:Can you agree? He went too long Like my nigga. We get it. You don't like it off Like can we get to that?
Speaker 2:That's why I think he's lying, I think he's bullshitting. I'll take my mother's oh, because he says it like he's like it happened more than once. No, I did. And he said that he's like oh, that's me, I'm the other day. So they just be like hey, girl, I got it Like he's noticed. One thing he never said I tried to stop her and she goes no, do it.
Speaker 3:It's more like they start doing it and he just goes oh, ok, I guess, like I mean, I think it's just funny him complain about all the motions of taking your jaws off while doing it. It's three seconds on the on the internet, it's three seconds.
Speaker 2:It's literally like it, but you're, you're literally Give an example, he's never had to do the school Like he said that he didn't like.
Speaker 3:He don't like that. He don't like any part of a girl taken off his underwear.
Speaker 2:Yo, you can take my underwear off, my shirt off.
Speaker 3:The one thing you, I would think. I would just think you just be happy to be here. You're overthinking and now we talked about it too long, but you're part of the shame gang.
Speaker 2:Goddamn it yeah you win the shame gang I had last week.
Speaker 3:See, if you got him you have to shame game. Next one too.
Speaker 2:I thought I had last week.
Speaker 3:No, last week was the the cup. The guy with the sexual I was talking about it's choked in Spain to and he's like that's not sexual. Oh, he wasn't shame gang.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I definitely got one for that, for sure. Oh yeah, oh, that dude was definitely shame gang material. This one I'm 50 50 with, but not 51, 50, 49. That's why I asked.
Speaker 3:I'm like, so I kind of I kind of want to bring it to when we do shame gang, it may be who I shame, but you may not shame them. Let's like figure out if the audience feels the same Like you.
Speaker 2:Like you say, yeah, not really it's like I just think he's me and dramatic, yeah, it's not that big a deal. Shame, though.
Speaker 3:Shame shame on you. Shame on you, I know.
Speaker 2:God forbid, you're getting some bro.
Speaker 3:Right God forbid. You have a woman taking off her clothes and making love to you.
Speaker 2:Whoa, I know the the absolute Masculation of you. I don't even see that man as a man anymore. How's the shame there? He, he lets his, he lets girls take off his girls.
Speaker 3:I don't think that's what I'm asking. Is that even a question that, niggas, I don't give?
Speaker 2:a shit. As long as you get it, I don't care. My see, this is what I'm saying because we're about to do nasty stuff. Things are going in places, coming out of places. Things are coming out of places, going from one to another and back and forth, that all kinds of fun stuff Like this is what I was trying to tell you all last week. People take sex too fucking serious. I want to have fun. I'm sorry. Okay, he should have just had fun with it. He's like, yeah, girl.
Speaker 3:That's what I'm talking about. Be silly, be silly. That should be fun, but it should be taken seriously, because people are constantly complaining about they don't like it. They do like it. Stds pregnancy sex comes with a lot of consequences.
Speaker 2:All right, let me reframe that. Then I'm going to specifically speak on people in relationships or people who have steady partners. I'm not talking about all this other stuff. I'm talking about people you know who are good. All right, I'm talking about these. People have fucking fun.
Speaker 3:Well him, yeah, like if people were in the same my frame of him as overthinking something as silly, like he even sounds like he'd be like don't be kissing me on my neck. That shit kind of ticklish. I'm a grown ass man. Don't kiss me on my neck, that's what he gives me. So like someone like that who overthink sex, yes, I agree.
Speaker 2:Just have fun with it, yeah.
Speaker 3:Just chill the fuck out who cares.
Speaker 2:Like I'm always going to bring it back to this Nobody cares. Nobody is going to care, nobody. He made himself come off, gay Trying to not the comments were come off.
Speaker 3:Flaming his ass, gay, they're like you, sure you good. Like you, sure you like women, like no one.
Speaker 2:That's what I'm trying to say. It's the overthinking, like you're talking to one professional overthinker Same Professional at this and I, sam, I spent an hour All right, like I told everybody in the beginning that I already relapsed. I fucked up day one and the other night I was good and high and good and drunk and I was going through just first off, I went down in a Dell spiral. By the way, she is goat status. She is legendary status, I know but I just listened to her newest album, the 30 album at.
Speaker 3:They had fucking fantastic and she's so likable on top of her voice and her music and how she carries herself. She's so likable.
Speaker 2:So I went from there and then I started going through New Metal, like when we were talking I started playing corn lip biscuit and I was just I'd be having those nights where I'd play all that shit.
Speaker 3:I'd be playing Hooper Sting Red Hot Chili Peppers like fucking God. The list goes on Like I go, uh stained. Um God, I could just keep going.
Speaker 2:So this is what I was trying to tell you. Like I went this is what I was trying to I went through like a series of like this is what I'll tell you. You went through a series of emotions. I went through a real serious to New Metal, to New. Metal and New Metal's the president.
Speaker 2:I went from literally like look, I ain't going for it, I was tearing up listening to Adele. I'm like, I am so sad and I am listening to Adele, but I also felt like after like her third album, her 30 album, I was like it made me feel better and I'm like all right. And then I started playing like corn and shit like that. I'm like yeah, and then for some reason, I ended up going into Christian music that I used to listen to and I was listening to these older songs and then I started sobbing. I was and a good song. It was a good song, Okay.
Speaker 3:Like you needed to cry Like.
Speaker 2:I was like God, what am I doing with my life? I was getting ready to just. I was getting ready again to just be like you know what? F everything. I'm going back to Christianity. I'm done with all this.
Speaker 3:If you think it'll help you, if you miss it, if you think it'll still something that you're missing. Do you know what?
Speaker 2:I miss and I'll be honest, I really miss the old things that gave me joy before I Became an adult, before I became an adult. Was.
Speaker 2:I wouldn't recognize you anymore. Like I want to get into and again shout out to producer because again another inspiration. You know he does his sports things and stuff like that, and I was like you know what I always wanted to fucking do? I was wanting to learn Muay Thai. Yeah, always, always, always, always, always, always. You're not gonna start bar fights and be like wow, no, no, no no, it's not Sam I ain't trying to do that to want to.
Speaker 2:I don't even want to put hands on people, but it's the simple fact. Like I miss doing those kind of activities. What's that for you? Me simply being a lazy bitch made. See, that's really what it is.
Speaker 4:You know, what.
Speaker 3:And. I ain't gonna front Sam every time I go home, and this is what makes me surprised. Or do you think it's just being lazy, or do you feel like you can't do it?
Speaker 2:you're not gonna be good, it's not that it's not even all of you being good. I want to do it strictly for health reasons, but hold that thought and we're back. So, like I was saying, I miss the camaraderie like what other guys like. I ain't gonna front Sam. I want to kind of get like a little punch in the face a little bit. I kind of want to spar, I want to do you want to be around?
Speaker 3:I just think I need to propose and like kind of get, because it really just be you, and you hang out with me and Brittany On the pod Each each.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I don't really know Really close friends or females, hannah or no.
Speaker 3:I mean no, hold on Like besides Mike. No, no, this guy Mike, and you got half.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you got Kev, but they got everybody's got things I say they got, they think like you have what you got going on. Brittany got her family. I am like legit the only single motherfucker around.
Speaker 3:You're one of them.
Speaker 2:I just don't even have kids to kind of preoccupy you know I was like kind of losing it a little bit and I'll wrap it up too, but I said it to myself. I was going to be very honest on this episode about just where I'm at at this very second, and I was going through all those emotions to like three things really stood out. One is I cannot be a functional I mean I cannot be a productive person with a drinking or weed habit. I cannot be, that's fair.
Speaker 3:And a lot of people can't, even though they swear oh weed, I'm good. Yeah, they be as lazy as fuck.
Speaker 2:Don't do nothing. So that's number one. Number two I am so ashamed of myself that I've allowed myself to get to where I'm at right now. I feel like a bitch. Like physically, I feel like a bitch. And number three was I just remembered all the joys that I had from the first time, like I finished my first chessbook and playing in my first tournament, writing my first song.
Speaker 3:So you want to go, you want to go back to those things Right. Feel that same enjoyment.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like, and even in this and like, I used to not shun away from trying to figure stuff out, like I used to focus, really like if there was something that needed to be figured out, I would figure it out. And then, like, now I just my, I don't know what it like, my, like, I have this show, I love this show and it's like you have a lack of motivation, but I know, but I not for nothing I shouldn't.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but I don't know why I do not, for nothing. Sometimes you know all your friends got something going on, which is great. We all got positive, good things going on, so we don't have the time to motivate and push you, right, I know no, no, no, and it's not our job. No, it's not friends. I feel like that's part of the job to to motivate and push your friends. That would be in place of a partner, and you don't have a partner that would help. You want a partner that's going to help motivate you and push you. You don't have that right now because you're trying to get your shit together.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you know what I mean. I don't know Like I beat up on myself a lot. That's why I don't mind when people fucking whatever, because you're in the same shit, same that's. It's been worse. It's the eight mile rule, then, what I've ever said to myself?
Speaker 3:Like you can't say nothing that I haven't said to myself in the mirror. You can't talk shit about me. I'll do it first, like no one could hurt my motherfucking feelings.
Speaker 2:But that was really, you know, like, that's just it's. And you know I and again I told myself to like one of these days, I'm just going to fucking wake up and be done with it. It's just going to happen Like I'm just going to wake up and just be, I'm fucking done. I wasted an entire day, my only day off. I wasted an entire. Would you just rot?
Speaker 3:That's what they call it on. So I did To you like we're rotting, rotting at home, I'm like shit, I love to rot.
Speaker 2:I get that you need days to rot. Sam, but that's all I do, though, you understand.
Speaker 3:Like.
Speaker 2:I in order for me to do like Sam I. This is the other reason why I, freaking like, broke down Like I was listening to songs that we used to do during jam sessions with my friend and I'm like, oh my God, I can't do that anymore.
Speaker 3:Now music. You know I love you too. Music, literally, is the only is the closest thing to a time machine that will ever see. Like I would say I was bringing me back to all those.
Speaker 2:I didn't really seeing the stuff in my head that reminded me of, like, when I was listening to certain songs. I was back on Larg Street, on the second floor of that apartment. I was like jamming out, you know, with with my friends and I always want to learn piano. I, I keep not doing that. And then I was always like, well, you know what, it's probably too expensive. And then I really really just shut my face and I, well, no, just classes and stuff like that.
Speaker 2:So I started to just look at stuff up. Sam, here you go, guys, bad habits are way more expensive than good ones. I looked up stuff for Muay Thai. It's $75 a month, that's it. That's it. It's for an hour.
Speaker 3:Cheaper than like that, cheaper than like Zumba classes, yoga, it's an hour.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's four days a week. That's really good and it's only $75 a month, sam, I spend more than that, at least not now, but old you know recently like I would spend more than that in a week on beer.
Speaker 3:But you want to know why? Because that was easier. It's easier to go into a store and get a beer for two seconds and instead of moving your ass where I go through the same shit with working out. But you know, as we're wrapping up, I just want to say it could be worse you.
Speaker 2:I know and I know Wait hold on, it could be worse.
Speaker 3:You could be fat, no, it's not. I know, I know you could be gaining like you could never have. Could gain like three hundred and seventy pounds.
Speaker 2:I'll kill myself.
Speaker 3:You could be out here with the beer belly the fucking that.
Speaker 2:That I'm sure right now I would off myself if I ever allowed, if you got that, no, if I ever a Latin, if I ever, if that ever happened to me.
Speaker 3:I don't want to get fat either.
Speaker 2:So outside of a medical condition on the cusp Sam outside of a medical condition. Yeah, if I literally got to that point because I got that fucking lazy Sam, I would kill myself.
Speaker 3:Let me ask you is you got the fat gene in your family? Is there anybody fat? Because I got the fat gene in my family. It's not a fat ease in my family, I got it. I know. Once I have a kid, three hundred pounds, here we go. But do you have the fat gene? Not really. No, nobody's fat in your family, not really Everybody's fat in my family. Well, not that like we're all. We all fluctuate away. We're all bigger. We're big, yeah, we're big and short, except for me. I'm the tallest person, I'm five, six, but we're all big and short and fat Fat short. It's not for me. I'm the tall one in the family.
Speaker 2:So they all just hate you.
Speaker 3:No, they just be feeling like I'm a big guy, five foot six, yeah, like I'm fucking. Oh, you can reach that. It's like you know, because I'm big.
Speaker 2:I was sharing with my freaking co-worker about when I was smaller in the main. You know what I used to hate hearing. How's the air down there? Like I had a person shorter than me Actually, and all right.
Speaker 2:Well, I was in McKinsey's of Stillwater so those little kids were corny White jokes. Oh yeah, oh yeah, that's definitely. That's classic white joke. What? That is classic tier one Freakin, that is white joke. Right there, there's the air down there. I always remember that kid's face and I just wanted to. I'm so mad I never punched him in it. I'm so mad he bitched out I was going to fuck him up. Oh my God. Lee Chaldea.
Speaker 2:No, no, sam, Not because then he was running around. He sounded like a joke. He was running around telling people that he punked me out of school dance once. Is it to he?
Speaker 3:Yeah, here's Spread it. We're talking about me. He punked the black kid.
Speaker 2:It wasn't even that, and I just remember seeing him in school and then I was like yo dude. I'm just letting you know.
Speaker 3:I'm fucking you up.
Speaker 2:He said keep my mother fucking me about your mother fucking me. No, I was like yo. I'm just letting you know. I told him I was like yo. I'm letting you know. I heard what you said and tomorrow after school I'm fucking you up and I'm not joking with you. I'm not going to do it here because there's teachers here, but after school tomorrow, when I find you, I'm going to beat the shit out of you. And then he sent his friend. He sent, he sent a friend, Damn, and I had to give his friend a message I ain't going for I drop, I didn't punch him. I did not punch him once. I literally dropped him and I put him in one of the old school wrestling moves the camel clutch, yeah, and I like was yanking on his neck and throat and I was like Joey and Billy.
Speaker 3:You beat up Joey and Billy.
Speaker 2:And I was like listen, yo tell your friend that it's that this was.
Speaker 3:this was going to be him, this could have been him.
Speaker 2:And I'm telling him that this is his fault. He never fucked me again.
Speaker 3:That's why you do. You gotta play crazy.
Speaker 2:No, but I like. Here's the thing I keep trying to tell people I'm not violent, but do yourself a favor Me neither. I'm the same Don't. I know.
Speaker 3:Look, I know, kill it, but don't push me, I will never be your bitch, that's all. And you will have to, you will have to kill me. I am not violent, but don't push me. But that's all. Anyhow, as we're wrapping up, let's get into some nasty.
Speaker 2:No man, it's been a couple of weeks.
Speaker 3:It's been a couple of weeks. I needed a break and like sometimes, guys, when we have certain guests I'm never sure if I sometimes they could bring the energy down and they don't know what to say after, because it happened with coach. You know, coach, and they were like oh what the fuck, what the fuck?
Speaker 3:But this week, could you, could you pull up so before. So Nasty knows, Nasty knows the segment I do every week where I expose a predator or petafile creep. A legist gives me predator, petafile creep. We don't just do entertainers and celebrities, we do regular people too. So a few weeks ago, before I actually start with the actual Nasty notices, I wanted to produce a bit. Could you pull up that first snippet we had a Nasty notice on a couple of weeks ago, not that one, the screenshot, nope, the other one, yep. So a couple of weeks ago actually, on that podcast with, uh, with Donovan and coach Roland, um nature boy.
Speaker 2:Oh, wow.
Speaker 3:Yeah, eligio Bishop um, alleged cult leader nature boy sentenced to life without parole after being found on multiple charges. So, finally, justice, alleged cult leader um Elijah Elijah. Elijah Bishop, also known as nature boy, was sentenced to life without parole and additional 10 years. A jury found him guilty. Guilty of multiple counts, including rape, fraud and rape and frauds imprisonment.
Speaker 2:First and foremost, that's by the shade. That's a shout out to the shade room for the report.
Speaker 3:Yo, this dude cause. He had the, as you guys know, he had the coal carbon nation and we talked about a few weeks ago and he was already arrested around that time. But I didn't think they were going to give him life without parole and he deserves to stay there so there's finally. You know it's rare when I do a nasty notice and there's some justice, but there's some justice.
Speaker 2:You heard about your boy, right. Uh, you did a nasty notice on him. He was um, the guy from um, yeah, yeah, he's going down bad right now, apparently, he's getting fucked.
Speaker 3:All right, could you give me that? Uh yep, that's going to show right there. So this week's nasty notice is a young lady, a North Carolina science teacher at South McAlin Berg High, gabriella, newfield, age 26, was arrested and charged with five felony counts of sexual activity with an 18 year old student. Now, I brought this one up particularly because there was a little, there was a little debate in the comments about this one, but I'm I'm just going to read as shout out to us spiritual world for the report. It says court records state that Newfield and an 18 year old student engaged in intercourse or a sexual act at least five times since October 8th. We take this matter seriously.
Speaker 3:South Mac principal Mark Angler says in the message to the families we share your concerns regarding the situation. The safety and security of our students and staff is the utmost important to all of us, which is troubling in this situation. Um, newfield, can you zoom out? Newfield is charged with five counts of felony sexual activity with a student. She was released from jail Thursday morning. $75,000 bill, all right. So what is your feelings on this? Because this is a 18 year old that she was caught with, the comments were like wait, 18, that's legal.
Speaker 2:And she's 26.
Speaker 3:And she's the science teacher.
Speaker 2:Wow, this is a hard one.
Speaker 3:Okay, my opinion. I'll just say my opinion. Yes, the child is 18 and no longer child, is in legal and the law to date is legally, however, she is in a position of power, right? She's authority. This is a school, a high school. This ain't even college Now. College, I said I, you know, I don't like huge age gaps like that, but, like in college, it would make more sense because they're adults now, you know, made to be adults now.
Speaker 2:Well, that's not necessarily true, because he would be going into college at 18. Yeah, but he's still in high school, right? But the age is still the same.
Speaker 3:But she did it in the car, like a couple miles from the school.
Speaker 2:Girl, you couldn't even take him to the hotel room.
Speaker 3:You yes, they were filming it, all types of shit. Oh, you didn't say that, yeah, but my thing is but that shouldn't matter, I think the fact that he's in high schools, he's still in school in high school, where other young children are, and you're his teacher. You couldn't, you couldn't, I agree with you in the fact.
Speaker 2:Some discipline and restraint the fact of the fact that it's high school because it's college is different.
Speaker 3:That's what I mean.
Speaker 2:College is supposed to be where it's more like all right, you're really kind of supposed to figure find yourself.
Speaker 3:This is where you find yourself.
Speaker 2:I kind of get that.
Speaker 3:You're in school by choice. It's not like you have to go to school like elementary and you're here by choice because you're you're adult enough to say that you, this is what you want to do with your life. That makes more sense. No, but I don't think anybody would have bet an eyelash, because there's so many instances where professors are having relationships with their students. But this is high school.
Speaker 2:I would have. I would have to agree with you. And yes it may be legal.
Speaker 3:It's legal in the same sense but you couldn't show any kind of discipline or weight or right until he's out of high school and these. But you know, I see more and more female teachers, young and like this. If you go to our face, our YouTube, you'll see her pretty. That could probably get any dude they want in their age group older, whatever going after these little ass boys and it's like what is it the attention that they give you? They have the availability. Clearly they're a child. What else is it going to do? They got a fucking job Like I'm trying to figure out why it's. I see more and searches a more and more young female student. I mean, excuse me, teachers having relationships with their students, bro.
Speaker 2:Do you think there should be a minimum age to be a teacher?
Speaker 3:then, it seems like at this point, cause it's just more and more female. I'm telling you see, I feel like it's just more and more female teachers. I mean well, because, guess what, we don't, we don't shame female teachers.
Speaker 2:We don't.
Speaker 3:we don't do anything when it's an attractive young female teacher, but that's what that's but that was that, lisa and Lombardi, the, the, the, the, the Nasty notice that had a minute ago, which from the nineties, when she had sex and got pregnant by her 13 year old student. Oh yeah, I mean, I wouldn't call her a pedophile per se, this girl, but she's definitely on Nasty notice Like damn bitch you couldn't, and like damn bitch you can't like you couldn't you can't control your hormones Like God damn you're in high school because, and also because she's in a student excuse me, a teacher in high school, they're like looking at her like damn bitch.
Speaker 3:Are you looking at the 16 year olds like this too? The 17 year olds like that, like why would it just stop at this 18 year old? You can't tell me that you weren't looking at them little 15 year olds or 16 year olds Like yeah, my boy had a freaking amazing joke.
Speaker 2:He's like yo. All young adults should glow like a color, like they should just blow a color. That way you're not confused about how old they are.
Speaker 3:You stupid. I don't think she's confused. She clearly knows she's their teacher.
Speaker 2:I know, I was just trying to make a joke.
Speaker 3:Lord Gabriella Newfield, you're on Nasty notice and the words in a great anti-dots, and how's your kids and how's your wife and how's your husband, because they're even everybody out here, yeah.
Speaker 2:All right, all right. Yeah, that's the one where I'm 50, 50,. Which one that one's?
Speaker 3:that's what the comments were.
Speaker 2:But I'm still she, simply because she could have waited. She's not. He was dumbest you can't stay here and tell me she ain't looking at them 15 year olds and 16 after, like during graduation and go up to the pants and be like, hey, he's a great kid.
Speaker 3:Yeah, oh, hold on. No, you don't got to play that pretty. She's fine, but yeah, that's, that's kind of crazy I don't know To me, you can't tell me she's, she's in, she's in danger of looking at all them damn kids. But nobody's safe around that bitch. It seems like I don't know. You, 26 girl, you could have get someone your own age.
Speaker 2:I don't know Like you mean to tell me, even at 20, you could have got someone at 20. Like you're, you got one of your students in your graduate, you could have got a freshman in college where you risked a bag for like one of your students.
Speaker 3:So in my mind see, you can't tell me she ain't looking at the 15 year old, 16 year olds, 14 year olds, if they look mature enough for this bitch. She fucking, I have no idea.
Speaker 2:And these motherfuckers they be looking like.
Speaker 5:I don't care what they look like. She knows what.
Speaker 2:I'm not disagreeing with you. I am not disagreeing with anything that you are saying at all. But I ain't going to sit here and pretend like motherfuckers don't look older than they do.
Speaker 3:Well, that's why you got to ask people ages and looks at IDs.
Speaker 2:I hold on. I agree with you, but apparently that's rude. How dare you ask a woman her age?
Speaker 3:Oh no, you're not you ain't out here fishing for the kids, so you ain't got to worry about that. No, I'm not because these kids are stupid. But if you like this episode, let me show you.
