A Woman should be President - EP 04

Give me a, oh, give me a D, give me a D, give me a H, uh, give me a, oh, give me a T, give me a, uh, give me a P, give me a, give me a A, I didn't spell topics, oh, I didn't spell that right, did I? Give odd topics, oh, topics, it was an H in there. Welcome to Am I Too Loud, the podcast. Hi guys, welcome back to Am I Too Loud with Sophie, aka the Audubique. Today's episode is all about some of the oddest topics that I see online for you page on my TL, my timeline and everything in between. And let me tell you, based on the fact that I couldn't even spell topics at the beginning of this episode, we are in for a fun ride. I'm going to be joined by my fun producer, slash friend, slash creative director, the most random creative I know, Donald. Say hi, Donald. Hello, hello, hello, hello. And you're listening to this Spotify or audio. You didn't see my friend, Sonia, who's also behind the camera, who immediately ducks, because she did not realize she might potentially be on the platform. And the fear in her eyes is absolutely insane. But these are becoming some of my favorite episodes to film. And I don't know if you all can tell, I'm getting so much more comfortable on like the hot seat. Like, once I'm in the director's chair, I'm like, yapa, yapa, yapa, yapa. I feel like this podcast is becoming like my thing. Like, so many just keeps yapping. I love it. We're going to get started. I have my trusty iPad here. Don't know that you're ready. Let's do it. Okay, first of all, you always want to be on camera so bad. That's not true. That's so true. That's why you're doing gang signs on camera. I'm telling you, you guys can even see me right now. So that's not true. All right, let's get started. I'm seeing intro. Why do we care? What do we care about what? Why do we care? Like what are we caring about? So this episode, there's a whole lot going on in the industry. Oh, my God. The timeline this week has been crazy. And I don't want to talk about something, but I don't know what it's all about. Donald has planned for us. So we're going to get started. What's the first topic? I just want to talk about like, why do we care? Why does the internet exist? To care. We're nosy. We're part of the problem. We are part of the problem. And we have to acknowledge that. Yes, that's true. I want to show you this video. Because I think it's the best way to start this episode. Okay. Okay, so. Very controversial. Oh, pause, pause, pause, pause, pause, pause, pause. Any time I see the slum flower in a video, I immediately scroll. Now I love the slum flower. That's my girl. Actually, I don't know her. We've been meeting each other for a minute on Twitter, but I don't know if you probably love each other anymore. So I honestly, let me take that back. Hold on. What I'm trying to say is I know she says some of the like the most outlandish, craziest things that came me out. Most of us believe. But I think the way she states it makes you seem like you have seen it for your guard up. That's where I'm going to come from first before watching the full video. Because we know the slum flower. We've seen the stuff she's tweeted and recorded and posted. She is very like bold and out there, which is very loud. She will be standing for here. So we're not going to shame anyone for their thoughts. We're just going to hear it out. Okay, go ahead. I saw the preference. The video is actually not about what she said. There's a lot so many response to what she said. Okay, let me see. Shall we begin? First of all, I love his content. I love his content. If you're not watching a video, this guy does like reaction stuff. His FYP is I think worse than my own. Because the stuff he owns of reacting to is just insane. Okay, she says marriage is sex work. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. She's not wrong. She's not okay. Hear me out. Hear me out. Let me play devil's advocate here. Okay. Married. I don't necessarily think a healthy marriage is sex work. I don't think so. However, are we saying that we don't think there are people in marriage who do tend to have the similar attributes? I'm sex workers. Do we not think that? Can you explain more? Let me explain. I know in that video she basically said that having sex with the husband, you're cooking, you're cleaning, or you're getting paid for it in some aspect. Unfortunately with marriage, you don't tend to get paid for it because you're just having sex with a man. Sometimes you don't love the man. Sometimes you just force into it to have kids and then whatever. She may be a lucid punk that's sex workers have more freedom than wives in marriage. I think she might be coming from a perspective of a very unhealthy relationship. So it makes sense I don't I don't want to speak for her. It may be thinking that she might know of scene healthy marriages Where marriage is a partnership instead she see marriage from like Everything about like an African perspective, right? Like when we hear when you go on you know The husband goes to do the bride price and then you know they buy the woman and she's in the house Sometimes like a range so you don't really love the husband so you go to love the husband So most of all you are doing don't want to let you tell you that oh yeah, that's what I have sex with the husband Have the children raise your kids for the man and then go If you're thinking from that aspect So you're talking about it from the perspective of the woman. Yes, so no marriage as a whole not the guy and do it No, I'm saying it's not a part. I don't think she's thinking about it from a partnership perspective Okay, right because I think a healthy marriage is partnership. That's what marriage is at the end of the day. It's a man and a woman or a wife a person a person Two people or more Coming to a binding agreement. Yeah So choose each other for the rest of their lives and coming partnership Which means they're having houses together kids you're building a lineage that family treat all that's what you want That is that's what you want. That is what marriage. I think should be and it's it should have the Corby partnership Now I think from a slump ours protective. I don't think she sees healthy marriages enough to where she even really thinks that Okay, right because I think the healthy marriage is hard to come by in this day and age right and then the certain communities too Women aren't equal partners in marriage, right like for a lot of our communities women aren't the equal partner the men are So if she's coming from like she just said is so outlandish, but I don't see how she is that far off Okay, so podcast the license I think that Because I have a podcast too. I think everyone can have a podcast that everybody has a voice Everybody has opinions. I think it's like that matter. You know, like I don't think we need to be in each other's What is it? What's the thing they call the little thing that like you hear yourself and only yourself? What does that thing English is on my first language echo chamber? I think we know these exist in each other's echo chambers. I think for the most part It's fun to exist in spaces where you hear other discourse and you talk about it My issue with stuff like that is when people hear that they immediately think Absolutely not that's our landish shut it down But if you think deeper into what she's saying you can bring that down into different arguments I like this video to whatever that was advocate here Honestly We don't have a vice versa. So we're bringing about to why do we care about what she's saying about like people's opinions and thoughts just Everything well going somewhere. We're going somewhere with this. Okay, because I think that's social media though Like I think the idea that with social media if you bring your if you bring your opinions out to the world You're asking people and inviting people to talk about it. You know social media changed after the pandemic It became even more Impactful for the society right because when we first started social media It was more like a highlight reel. It wasn't sweet So you just share things for your family and friends and posting it the pandemic hit and folks Social battery social change like it just switched now people find social interactions more online And that's what we have more of a discourse. That's what we have more podcasts That's what we have people who are trying to have the voices heard from like their living room from their rooms where they never leave their Right, yeah, but we also have a society where some people have degrees and some people don't that's true But I don't think a degree matters in terms of intelligence though I don't think so. I don't think you have to be educated to be smart I don't think so I really don't I do not think you have to be educated No, no, no, that's not true. What do you mean? That's what true? How? No? If you can be educated and not smart But you have to be educated. No, I know some really educated people who I don't talk about formal Yes, it's okay, right? Yeah, I'm just saying about educated in terms of no formal education Just like because so important are educating no like boy. Hey, what does education mean because if you're saying formal What is education mean? Are you reading a book because all you mean like do you read a book? Are you street smart? Do you listen to people like what does that look like also? I need to tissue my eyes are falling off with water? I'm back I don't I need to yell out loud. Sorry. Oh, I have to take a break. My lashes were falling off moving on Okay, so yeah, we're talking about being educated and not and being smart What does education mean there is no? I see why do we care because the internet has a lot of opinions and I feel like a lot of the topics That was what we're talking about today. There's a lot of Very like bad takes and it makes me scared. Well, you deem it about take why because it is a bad thing No, it's not who decides what's bad and what's good on the internet. Okay, hold that on just hold that on okay Let's talk about friendships, okay, friendship. Yes. Okay. All right. Let's talk about friendships you guys What is the odd topic about friendship that we're about to discuss? How do you measure friendships? How do I measure friendships? That's a huge question That's a very broad question. How do I measure friendships? Why is there videos we watch it? I don't have to answer first It's so annoying quality or lens. Oh That is a good question. How do you measure friendships quality or length? quality As a quality I think you could know someone for a really really long time But if you don't take the time to actually get to know them as they involve then you're that that friendship might not be the best type of friendship Does that make sense that a people who have known me since high school who are not good friends to me? For their people who have also known me since high school who have taken the time to learn me every step of the way and The people who just met me last month who have become the best of friends with me because they've taken the time as well to invest in a good friendship So I definitely would take quality over length any day What are we watching? I need a video coming you guys. No, this is because I wanted to make sure that this section of the video is not just all negative vibes Okay, right? So this is positive. Let's see I Also, I make up a spire They didn't even have a heartache disorder. I would just literally decide, decide, leave me like that. And I'd rather they mention our nots, they did not say what we're here, you need to pass it around. I need to be asked about that in the next few years. Anybody won't be just looking at this. On top of that, what I was on most people had their 20th year in the beginning of the year. I have, I thought it should be a whole episode and a thorn. And we all have a friendship episode. So I was, I have learned a lot. I was looking someone yesterday and I said, that's so interesting. I had been through so much with friendships and friends because I had such a misguided idea of what friendship should be. What I mean by that is I, I grew up watching, do we all watch like the Hannah Montana trio duo thing, right? We're like, we would constantly watch where's like the person in the sidekick or the two friends or the three best friends. And I grew up thinking that's what I wanted, right? I wanted a childhood friend who would stay with me and stick with me forever and ever and ever. And I would find myself in positions where I was a human who did not have my best interests at heart. And that happened for a really, really long time. Until I decided to read, to figure out what I actually wanted out of friends. So I say all that to say, quality, she's right. Like I'm huge now about energy. I'm huge about respecting boundaries. I'm huge about all I can so say, who's a friend? Like who's an acquaintance, who's a colleague, who's a friend, who's a close friend, who's a best friend, who's a party friend. I got brunch friends now. I have photo shoot friends. I have work friends. Like I'm learning that people can also serve as friends in different capacities for you. And that's okay. And that's why I'm like, I understand the whole quality versus lengthy length throughout the window. Cause someone can know you for 20, 30 plus years and actually never know you or just even be around you just so I wanna reach off of you. And I say that with my chest. If you're watching this, you know who you are with my chest. Okay, next one. So there's a comment here that I think is interesting. I'm currently in a position where I don't feel like I have friends. This video made me realize that the one friend that I have is still in my life because I've known them since forever. However, I don't feel like we are learning more. It's funny because I was thinking about our friendship today and this video popped up. I guess it was meant to be a sign. I just don't know how to start friendships, I guess. I don't know where to even look or what to say. Okay, let us do friendship 101, how to make friends in 2024. First things first. What kind of friends are you looking for? Make a list, okay? I did this when I was actually, when I moved to New York recently, I was like, okay, what are my priorities? I really wanted a solid friend group. I threw that out of the window because I realized I didn't need to add to trip people into my life sidebar. But for you who's listening right now, do a few things. Break down what kind of friends you want. What kind of friends are you looking for? All right, what are your hobbies to even start? Like where are places that you can go where you can meet like-minded people? We've heard about the whole run club things where you start meeting people because you like running. Folks who like going to bars, lounges, clubs, paint and sip, walking groups. So many different avenues going to the park. Actually going to the events around the city where places where you live, so you can meet different people. Joining LinkedIn groups, Facebook groups, I'm telling you, so many people feel exactly like you do and they want friends too. I think people tend to stay in their silos and don't want to reach back out because I know, it can be hard, it can be exhausting. But you need social love. Like I understand that so hard. I think do that, okay? Try reaching out, breaking out of your comfort zone, going out to meet different types of people. And you start building that tribe stully. You just need that one. I have like a solid group of things that helps like seven solid good friends. Like, and they're all in such different aspects of their life. And like those are people that I know I've built a solid quality relationship with. And I think it's important to have those kind of people that all have the question folks. Am I one of the seven? No, Donald. You're not, you're so annoying. Okay, there's another question. I'm paraphrasing here. Sometimes you meet phenomenal people and have the most phenomenal conversations in that moment. It's okay to meet those moments. That is so true. Like generally, I feel like I should be that person who I would experience something with someone. It's going to be some of your romantic relationships. I would experience something with someone and I would choose to be like, let me romanticize this to be a whole thing. I meet someone who I'm like, me and that girl just gelled really well. We're going to be best friends with rest of our lives. We never speak anymore. I used to think that was a slight on me or in that person or our relationship. Oh, I was just, it's sometimes where you're just meant to meet someone have a really, really good time with them. Take that memory and move on from it. And like have them around be a lesson honestly and you can grow from it. So I definitely align with what she's saying. Nunea 21 says, we're friends until they give me a reason not to be. I'm not going to take time to evaluate friendships that are working. When they start working, I'll know. I don't know how I feel about that because I feel like that feels very cut off feet. I feel like that centers. I don't know if this is a good or a bad thing. That centers this commenter as like the son where everybody else is rotating around. I think friendships are also like partnerships, right? Where you're also giving and taking. That's where good quality friendships come from. You should be able to also speak to your friends. If a friendship isn't working, who's fault is it, right? Can we talk things through? Because I think I also don't like that sometimes we tend to give up on our friends but give romantic relationships a lot more leeway than we do friendships. And this is across the board. Like especially within, like especially with women, like we tend to be like, oh, that girl, she pissed me off, she did this. She's gone versus that man who's done you dirty 15 million times. You're still up, it's ass. So give him another chance, give him 50 chances. When that girl might have done something like, if you talked it out, you could have like worked through it. So that's also something to think about. A foot, an odd nugget, if you will. I love that we're keeping that an odd nugget. That's good. All right, cool. Moving on. You could like love on topics days. It's so fun. So this next one, I think you have to enjoy it. I want to talk about this so bad, you guys. I'm telling you, I was on Instagram and I open, I think it was a fuck, I, I always been blocked. I don't know how I saw it. But somebody posted that DDG and Halley broke up in my heart song. Because I have such an unpopular opinion about this duo. And I feel like Donald also has a very strong opinion about this. And mind you, let me just get into it first of all. I'm going to start my argument with this. When I heard that, I was so frustrated, really, honestly, because I just knew I would see comments going. Now he could leave her alone. Halley has been abandoned. She's now a baby mama. They can't believe she let that happen to her. DDG is the worst person. Halley has no decisions. Why are we taking the autonomy out of that woman? Like, why are we thinking she's this egg that I need? I don't, like, I hate how, okay, sorry. Don't know what else to read. Back to the thing I said at the start. Why do we, why do we care so much? It is so, I'm telling you, when I was reading those comments, I went on Reddit and I never go on Reddit. And I saw think pieces about two people's relationships that we do not know. We do not know. We do, I don't think you guys understand. I don't think you're listening to me. We don't know these people. You know what I'm talking about? Because it's like, it's so, because you see so many people on the internet. And you're just like, why do people, like you said, there's so many important issues. There's a hurricane. There's war. Why do you care? Oh my God, this will be the title of this episode. Why do we care so much? The DG and Hally break up. Come along and call her that again. This next video I want to play, it's like a quick segue away from DG back. But it's important. Okay, let's play this video you guys. Oh, that was a good video. Oh my God, you kind of get excited with Automatic. Okay, okay. Cardi Deeds will offset. She slept with her brother before he passed away. But Automatic just responded. Take off already told him, but then take off brother responded. They said he didn't tell her. So be a sec. Why is this happening? Because Cardi and Offset broke up because she told everyone she cheated on him. She then tweeted that he slept with all of her friends. And that's the reason why she did it. Okay, why does anybody care? Because one other time, offset, she was with Jay. At 6.9 to ex girlfriend. Yeah, I think he tried to hurt 6.9, but he ended up only hurting himself. I'm gonna have to wear that. Oh, I was just trying to take everything away from Cardi key. How many of you just said he got a thing? Okay, I'm saying, well, why is this new? Because they're married and they have three kids. But now they're broken up. They're spilling all of this. See, if they didn't do a break up, the arguing and got to the internet, because they're right out. I'm trying to hurt you contest like it's high school. What's the news about this? Gentus genuinely happy. Cardi, do you finally cheated on Offset? Why is that made you happy? Lord happy because Offset already slept with her friends meaning he was. But why does that make you happy? Because Cardi B is a three or four. She deserved Cardi B one. Because she slept with his brother who's not alive anymore. Why don't either care this much about it? No, Offset actually won. Because he slept with all of his friends. Yeah, right, but Cardi B has 175 billion followers. That's 2524, I was like 250 billion. I think he was born. Offset was born genuine. Why don't you come with us? I think that's dangerous. Okay, okay, hear me out. Hear me out. Okay, I just really think. I just really think. We care because of social media. That's a little point, right? You're meant it's a discourse. Social media is discourse. Like the idea, like right now, me also having a podcast is because I want to talk about random news online. And as a celebrity, right, your life becomes used like, think about the Chapeau, Chapeau Ron. What is her? Chapeau Ron I think is their name. She talked about like her mental health and how much she struggles with, struggles with mental health people in her business. And I remember seeing that going, yeah, that's so right, like why do we care? Like why do we care? When they also thought for your celebrity, you're inviting it. And I remember thinking, why do I think because she's a celebrity, she's inviting it? And I think that's the conversation that needs to happen because the internet is going to always have discourse. That's the whole point, right? You want people's opinions. That's how you post your photo because you wanted to tell you that you like it. You want a video because you want interactions and engagement, that's the point. So I think why do we care? Is like a pretty high up look into like what the internet is supposed to be, right? It's supposed to be a discourse. So like that's why I think we care. Now I think they care too much. And I think they're doing too much a lot with these think pieces, right? Because we still forget with the internet that you don't actually know these people. Like you don't actually know Cardi B unless you have an intimate relationship with Cardi B as a friend in any capacity, if all you know about Cardi is what she is present online, you do not know Cardi B. You do not know DDG. You do not know Hallie. We do not know this people. You do not, if you listen to this, you don't even know Sophie. You don't even know the entity, right? Because the internet is a highlight reel. That is the point of social media. It is a highlight reel. It is what people choose to show you and engage with. People are so nuanced. It's such a nuanced space to be in. That I think we sometimes forget on the internet that what you're seeing is never the full picture. Sometimes literally maybe one third of the picture. That's me doing some math is one third a lot, a small. Not sure, but you want a small. It's one of thirds, one of thirds. Okay. So you see in that video, because I was like, oh, Cardi B is married and she has to, and they have to. Also, I'm curious to Cardi B. Let me be messy real quick. Start out to Cardi for cheating. Period. I support women's rights and wrongs. That's right. Yes, Cardi. You bet again. Sorry. So you like that Cardi. I love it. So it's pregnant. No offset, take off. Allegedly. Let's go back to DDG and Hallie. Because I have a thing. There's a common denominator here. Which is why? The child. That's not a common denominator. It is, it is. Why is it common denominator? Because that's why everybody cares. No, that's not true. I believe. No, from the beginning, before she had a kid with him, you guys, this is how I'm telling you, before she had a kid with him already, when they even talked about them dating, the internet sees Hallie as an angel. This sweet angel, little mermaid, so adorable, so cute. She can be her. She's our egg. She deserves a, I've seen people like try to get her to be with like a damson, Idris, like a cookie cutter black guy. That's what I want to, that's what I want to describe what people want for Hallie, a cookie cutter black guy, versus when they saw her with DDG, they're like, yo, you could do better, right? You could do better. He's crazy. He's loud. He's this, they've been worse. I don't want to repeat on the internet that they used to describe DDG as a person. I have a video. So, okay, let's watch this video. When it comes to this whole DDG and Hallie in this situation, it's not that the internet broke them up. Sometimes the internet be right. As much as people want to say, people on internet be yapping and talking, sometimes the internet be right. And believe it or not, we like Hallie. We really like Hallie. She's our Disney princess. She's the first black mermaid. You know what I'm saying? We love her. We love the path that she's on. We love her. You know what I'm saying? We love her trajectory and we know that where she can go. So, watching her deal with someone like DDG, that they're wrong with him per se. However, his track record of the type of women that he normally date, then to get with someone like Hallie. Cool. We're not known in the industry for dating. Pause, pause, nature. Let me explain this to folks who are listening, right? When people say that, oh, I'm so, I don't want, I don't want to, okay. This is not Sophie speaking as Sophie speaking as what I think she's trying to say. And if she's not trying to say this, then maybe I'm wrong. DDG's ghetto. He dates women who are ghetto or the idea of what you're not supposed to be. Like the presentation of being black, right? We saw that happen a lot with, I think a naked she talked about being presentable for the white gaze, right? The idea that Hallie's our sweet mermaid, our beautiful black princess versus all the crazy women that DDG has dated. Compared to her, she's palatable. She deserves a cookie cutter and black guy versus a DDG who's dated women who aren't like Hallie. Who the fuck cares? Who the fuck cares? And why should we fucking care? And why are we talking about this woman? Like she does not have, and that's in, not in that's in, what is the word? What is the word? Or not autonomy? Yeah. Yeah. And how is she different? How is she different? How are we different? How is she different? Oh, don't even try it. She wants people to fight you, Donald. No, no, no. How is Hallie different from Ruby Rose? Exactly. So you see anything you said about her? Because she's closer to her sister. How is her sister different from Ruby Rose? How are they different? How are they different? How are they different? I want people who are listening right now to tell me how Ruby Rose and Hallie are different. Is it Ruby? Hallie is a Disney princess and Ruby Rose is not. Right. Because technically, they both date rappers. Okay. They both are PS6C online. Wait, are we talking about Chloe, baby, no, Hallie? Three of them together. You're all in differences. You're all in differences. You're all in differences. You're all in differences. Ruby Rose has an only fans and Hallie doesn't. But they both do. You know what? Also, you know what's funny about the Hallie situation? I really think it's interesting how we tend to want to put our thoughts and who she is out there for her. Like we're telling her, because you're in Disney, you have to be a certain way. We saw that happen with Raven Simone, right? You have to be a certain type of black girl to exist and be successful. And I pushed back on that because that girl is simply just living her life. Like why are we looking at her negative because she has a baby with someone who she clearly loved and who clearly loved her? We have seen the clips of them. If you watched his channel or her channel interacting, if you saw the interactions, you knew this girl loved that man and that and worshipped her. Like they literally loved each other. And then when I see people who have these things pieces about how they feel like she's making the wrong decision, we are taking the autonomy away from her because who the fuck are you to tell this woman how she should behave or move? She protected the internet from seeing her child because she knew these things pieces are going to happen. Imagine going through a breakup allegedly because DTGP playing too much. Imagine going through a breakup like that knowing fully well, the internet is going to say something different. Mind you, she never has appeared unhappy. A child is never unpaired on a happy. Like maybe there is always with a child. This has never been an issue of he's not been present. We have seen rappers and terrible people never hang out with the kids. I mean, Cardi and Offset, I keep keying about it. This is my problem. Like DTG's, he's one of the good ones. Like he brought his entire family from Punta. Yeah, Donald is a huge fan. Look, let's think about it. His brother, his mom, everyone, he changed their lives. He's one of the good ones. He has inspired. He's the reason. He's the reason why we don't. What is the difference between DTG and Kai? What's the difference between a DTG and Kai? Who did he date? Because apparently his dating history is a lot more out there. When I saw that breakup and that announcement and then I saw people creating these sensational stuff about what he allegedly posted on close friends and stuff like that. I'm like, y'all, if you know DTG, you know he's always messing around. One, two, she got with that man because she knows he messes around. She's seen his content. She is a grown woman who can make her own decisions and the story we shouldn't reveal a shit. That needs to be my main thing. That's just pretty to decide. No, because like, I get this to my main case, but like, she was somebody before the good to my main. Yes. It's a thing where I think with Hally and Chloe and how people interact with them, it's always been so frustrating for me to see because I see two young women who just really want to be themselves. And society keeps trying to get them to be something they're not. I give an example of the fact that because they were blessed by Beyonce, there was a pretty direct route. They wanted both of them to take. It was pretty like the Normani route, right? Well, like, you're going to be clean, could be cut out black girl, you're going to go Coco Jones route. Like, gives giving you that like upper echelon luxury black girl energy who's going to be a pop star, who's going to be put together, who's not going to date rappers or this or not do too much. And then Chloe became her own person. And I don't even think she was doing too much because Chloe Bailey existing in the same areas in Meg the stallion. Why was that? Why was she met with so much flat compared to a Meg, right? Because when that was happening, she was dressing however she wanted to dress. They dragged her down like she's embarrassing. She's doing too much. I'm like, make the sudden dress exactly the same. It's working my line like, why are we? Why don't we, why are we even giving a flying fuck about how this girl is choosing to dress because she's just trying to be herself? Because again, the idea of like, we want you to be this kind of cookie cutter black girl because someone like Beyonce is blessed you. This is the route you need to take when they're simply just being themselves. So Halle dating someone like DDG is a pushback against what people want to see from them. And to be two girls who are growing up trying to see or to navigate that, I think it's unfortunate. I think we just let them live their lives because what is our, are we their lives? No. Okay. Okay. When I was finishing this video, then I have a theory. Okay. Okay. Innocence. Like, to her. Who hasn't won more innocence? Halle? So I'm not saying I don't know why they their relationship ended. But if anyone has seen Halle on live, or on fucking videos, Halle will cuss you out. She's actually the meaner sister. Halle, I'm telling you, Halle, you could find a b***h. Okay. I'm telling you. It makes no sense to me. And I get, I love her now. Like, I love the sister so much. And it just pisses me off because I know they just want to live their lives. And I think the entirety of black women America just really wants them to just, oh, maybe that's a generalization. But the entire group of people certainly just want to impose this idea of that they need to be cookie cutter. And they're not. I don't think they're ever going to be. And I think that's okay. We need, we need diversity. Okay. We need diversity of the black experience. I think we need more crazy black women. There is diversity. We need acknowledgement. Period. We need acknowledgement of the diversity of black womanhood. I want to see the, what's the crazy one? The one who's like a mega one, what's her name? We need a Candace Owens. We need a Lala Milan. We need a, uh, Halle Bailey. I want you to explain the differences because your name is, oh, my, okay. We need a, um, a cocoa Jones. We need to be on say, we need a finita. Okay. We need a, uh, semi moonlight. We need a Sophie AKA the audit. We need a Sonya Barbie. We need a diversity of black womanhood because we're not, we're not the same. We're not the same. We're not linear thinkers. This needs to exist. Like Chloe Bailey behaving exactly how she wants to behave should be accepted regardless. Why do we need to think pieces? Halle Bailey is not a cookie cutter innocent woman. She doesn't want to be. Even if she is, why is that a problem if she's not? Okay. We need Frankie, the lady talking. Is that Frankie? Frankie. She is. The lady is just a creator. We don't need her. We need Frankie too. We need Frankie. I want diversity because I remember like what we talk about. My problem with discourse around black women, especially, it always seems like it's very limiting in the conversation. It's very controlling. You should appear this way. You should appear that way. You're too loud. You're too much. You're too sexy. You let this man get away. Why? Why? Why? They have autonomy. These women have autonomy. They have autonomy over their bodies, over their minds. They know what they're doing. Allow us to celebrate our choices. We might not agree with it. We might not agree. We might not even like it. We need a Jackie Aina because Jackie always even puts boundaries in place. We need a... I'm going to go on and on and on. The diversity within the black women who think, I feel so strongly about it because I really think we do visa acknowledge the fact that black women are not the same and that's okay. Chloe Billy is never going to be a Coco Jones and there's nothing wrong with that. Continue on at all. Okay. So, like I said, I have a theory. Am I going to get canceled for this? No, you won't. I can't let this blame go in, oh my God. Noin, I've been watching D-D-G since like 2017. Yeah, you have nothing better to do in your life, yeah. Absolutely not. Right? Reading this post, I have a theory. Okay. Oh, this is like actual story where he said, their friends and supporters, Hally and I, but they had to go our separate ways. It was not easy. Okay. They started sharing their relationship. All of our friends deep were truly best friends, yeah. I think this announcement, I don't think they've broken up. Okay. I think there's so much happening on the internet. Yeah. So, it's like in their business. And they want to just not have them in their business. Because like, they have a child. Yeah. They have their careers. Yeah. They have their personal teams. Yeah. Everything. But there's so much discourse. And like, the way people are bashing on him. Yeah. I wouldn't even want to be in their relationship. I wouldn't be in the same room. I feel like this message is for everyone to just kind of like, give them along. Yeah. That's my theory. I don't think they've broken up. I think they're still together. I think it should have been matter. No, but yes. But no indeed. No indeed. I think that. Because she hasn't said anything. She hasn't. What she never does though. Which is my favorite part about her. Actually, never does. If you realize like, how do you don't be speaking? Like all she should just mind her own. She's like beautiful. Okay. Well. It's true. I think she always minds her own. And I think that's one of my favorite things about her. And I accept it. Like, she doesn't need to say too much. Let them talk. Let them say whatever they want to say. It's okay. Again, the discourse around Black women just needs to change. Our opinions about relationships need to change. It's the idea that like she's now less than because she's a baby mama. And so her career is over. It's disgusting. That girl has worked so hard to get to where she is. She is deserving of having a child. She's determined of having someone a partner who loves her, the way that man loves her. And even if he doesn't, we don't know. Because by knowing their marriage or their relationship or their partnership, we don't know. We don't know. So why do you care so much? Think about that. You know what you say to me? You don't want to get in trouble. So you laugh after like, if it's a day, is he, are you going to make me read comments about this? Yes. You know, my vote pressure is already so high. It's just because like this story could be tried. Oh, let me talk about this. Comment number one. From the beginning, I knew it wouldn't last. And it's no surprise. Did you see has to control the narrative? Remember, can I tell you yourself? If you go where you wanted, more name recognition of the internet world and a baby. He's a grown boy. Social media. And so I'd read culture in the Eastern society. If it should belong on their passwords. Who are you? Who are you? I swear, y'all. When I read comments on the internet, I'm like, how? I, you know what? Shit. God damn it. I'm just God damn it. This is my blood. I think it's interesting that people feel so strongly about other people. Now, they take the time to talk something like this, even without knowing who this person is. And I also think people tend to forget that I might post a certain type of content. But that might not reflect who I am as a person. Does that make sense? So people who tend to post outlandish content, click bitty content. They might be some of the best people in the world and just do it for the sensation I was in love with. Because that in itself is also art. I'm not saying dbgs in art. Or anything like that. I'm just saying we tend to forget that the humans were performing something in the world. So when we're here at the internet, there's someone called him a delist celebrity. And I was like, I'll just, I get exhausted just thinking about that. Someone said his name is damn damn goddamn. Okay. You know, one thing I realized. So we just played a highly song when she was singing a song about after her. He was like, I have a bunch of artists friends. And one thing I realized is sometimes artists don't sing about their real lives. I just want to throw that out there. I don't think we understand that. The concept that musicians sometimes my written songs four years ago. Because of something a friend might have gone through and then they sing it. And then people attribute that to what's going on in their present life. Sometimes that's not how life works. And sometimes they simply are just singing to sing. So I just ask devils advocate here. Even if she was saying that, I do be saying that by my exes too though. I'm like, I just love that my exes will look back and be sitting on the couch with their families. And they have to tell their kids, look, I used to date that person. And they have to look at their, you know, partner's face and be like, damn, I know I, I disappointed you. I couldn't have been with better. So I get it. Nothing fits me over the most. How about this Joe Biden guy? Oh, you, I don't, I've never really, like listen to a Joe Biden podcast. I really, I don't, I've never really, like listen to a Joe Biden podcast. I want you to hear what he said. Okay. About DDG. Okay. God. It's DDG. And why am I supposed to care about his thoughts on it? I'm very happy that they have broken up. So I don't get to keep seeing this name attached to this girl's name, when I don't know him for nothing as a standalone. And for me, it's important to know people based off their own name and what they have done. I don't even know if I see his name. It's attached to hers. And it's typically in some type of cloud chase or fashion. So that makes me look at him a different way. And hopefully I get to look at him a lot less now to be joking. Well, she's extremely awful. She's awful. Very talented. And you're saying her any game is trash. You're gonna go get their own account. Yeah, we figured out. No, go find out when they own number one. And number two of them with that trash. Why you snatch that cherry so fast? My boy. I mean, if her hand was as bad as you say, that cherry didn't levitate long. Before you got the action, DDG. I was so that stands for. What does DDG stand for? Darryl Dwayne Grandberry. Yeah, your name's Grandberry. No, my thing is, that's born to rise. And they want to go with the chick with some no idea. No, no, no, no idea. That's also on the rise. Salute by the way. I never have relationship fails. I never see them bounce back with something that's going to get sure you've said. I know they'll never hear from them again in the dating room. You know, I don't think I'm ever here about DDG and his next chick. I get I'm on. Well, you know who she is. I don't really. I'm just talking to DDG, who was the chick before. I'm afraid that we view that differently. And there was a whole lot going on with everywhere. She was doing Kyle Chasey. To their relationship. Well, Ruby is off swimming and. On the business own. Who was the young lady before? I don't know. I'm just saying. I'm just trying to see. It's good. It's good. Good luck. That's also an uncomfortable thing to watch. First of all, it's unfortunate. Okay. I have so many things to say. Go. So many things to say. First, it made me so uncomfortable to hear him talk about another woman in that way. Like the part about the cherry and the popping or whatever. And secondly, I don't know, especially in the world of AI. And this is definitely me playing devil's advocate here. Whether or not the story close friend story was true or not. Right. Like the idea that he would speak like that about the mother of his kid. If it is true, that's unfortunate. Right. This is not. That's just unfortunate. But I don't think it's true. If it is that again, that's unfortunate. I hate that. First of all, they're putting this in a discourse in that way. And second. I just hate this idea. That she's somehow less than because of him. And he's somewhat less than because of her. Like that dynamic that we keep perpetuating about the two of them is so unfortunate. Especially because also I'm an internet person, right? Like I grew my following through the internet. And there are folks who like our internet people like DGG is. And then we see like celebrities like Halley as like different. But the world is getting to a point where those two worlds are beginning to me. We see our biggest celebrities all going online. Like we're all didn't just open a freaking YouTube account to start posting YouTube videos. Like people are creating shows on YouTube. You're son of an adult. Yes. You said you said that? You said an adult. Just open a YouTube account. So I think I see it as interesting when I see folks like this half provisioned about folks like ddg. Who maybe my not be the best representation of what internet start-up could look like. But ddg has a huge following. He has a huge, he has a huge name recognition and even if you're in your echo chamber where you only hear him in regards to a Hally, they're folks who have never heard of Hally because they know D.D.G. Like that to me I think is where we oftentimes get lost and I hate that discourse. I definitely do. Okay, what do you have thoughts? He's 44. Oh, Joe. Yes. Okay. Why are you speaking like that? Right? Why are you speaking about someone who is younger? And that's why when I started this, I said there's a child here. Yeah. So whatever you like it or not. And that's what I was talking about. And mind you again, they're not like, could we just move on to the next topic? Because I feel like we're going to keep this dance for a long time. My biggest thing, let's just quote, we're closing out the Hally and D.G.C. segment like this. Mind your fucking business. Hally is a grown man. D.G. is a grown man. There's a kid involved. They have never shown the internet unless you decide there's an issue in their relationship. They have always shown up as a united strong front, always happy, always laughing. That child is always smiling. That child is walking at this point. They look like a happy family. This is what the family you think they should look like. And I think that's your problem and not them. Next on topic. Donald has a theory on my iPad that says, Donald's theory as a long-term subscriber of D.D.G. They break up or is this the absolute internet to fuck off? Well, no. And then the one before that he really wants me to read is, in the meantime, Hally is not confirmed or denied the split. No, as she made any comments about the surrounding conversations. She was also not tagged in the break-up announcement post by her chaotic co-parent. Let's all hope our girl is finally free from the mess. The mess you think she's in. Not the one she thinks she's in. So. All right, folks. Oh my god. The next topic we're going to be talking about. One of the oddest topics on the internet. And the hottest is what Jackie Aina posted recently. She said, she did a video where she said, I lied. Put your clothes back on. We're going to be discussing how beauty brands are using outrage. Marketing exclusionary tactics to add black women's expense to get us to market their awful shade ranges for free. So that, excuse me, I just belched you. To then turn around and correct it and make themselves the hero. I have been saying this shit, what camera is working? That's one, that one. I have been saying this shit from months for years. For years. Can the mic hear me? Shit, shit. This is why I wanted a fucking podcast. I am not joking here. When I saw that and I said, somebody sees me. Somebody gets it. Let me tell you what happened. So I have been telling, so everyone who every time I see a video about, you know, black makeup artists that are about shade ranges that are not right. I mean, let me just hiss and look away. Because clearly that is not my shape. That is not my thing. I don't need to entertain it. I don't need to, I don't even need to give it. Any room. I say that because when the euphoria foundation, unless I'm mistaken here, the timeline of events that happened was Fenty Beauty had a huge LA launch around the same time Euphoria came out with their foundation. And when that happened, Fenty ended up like taking the back seat. They had the big shade range. I forget what foundation was that they launched. But it was huge. All the beauty girlies were there, all that stuff. And then two days later, a day later, the Euphoria foundation with the black thing came out. And I'm telling you, I do not hear a peep about the new Fenty foundation. Not a word was said. Instead, the entire internet was an outrage because Euphoria was selling pitch black foundation. I wish we would take our outrage and put it into places that matter. I wish we wouldn't not entertain spaces that do not welcome us. I wish we would get to the point where we stop giving them our dollars because even our outrage is still engagement and money in their pocket. They're getting those ads adries. They're getting those views. They are still getting money despite your outrage or in spite of it. In fact, word on the street is that the Euphoria CEO, whatever, whatever, is one of the recessed folks. Like she probably, she does not give a fudge about black women, no matter what. So even if there's some level of redemption arc going on, it doesn't matter because from the beginning, it wasn't for you. Now, I say that as someone who's worked with tart cosmetics. So this is even a long, like this is a very huge circle woman for me. And I want to talk about that real quick. So when I first, I'm not a beauty girl. I'm not a beauty guru. So if he's not a beauty guru at all, I'll be being my face by my beauty girl. And I think a lot of my discourse around beauty comes from like Jackie Aina, Alissa Ashley, Gloria, someone like my icons, icons who are in the beauty space. And Tarkas Medics is some brand that's been there for a really long time, right? We've heard about Tark. They had a ton of issues with, you know, racist practices, discriminatory practices, a long time ago. And I remember seeing that trend happen with like my friend Cynthia, Fanita, there was a lot of stories on TikTok. If you're not familiar with it, Google Tarkas Medics controversy, it will come up online. I remember when they first reached out to me. I was not a beauty girl. So I was very confused about why they reached out to me. But then with my background, they wanted me to have a conversation with them about what I knew about beauty. Because you all know this, but I do be consulting undercover for a lot of these brands about like diversity and inclusion within the content creator space. Your girl just be moving silently. Okay, we know she's really loud. So they came up to me. They told me what they wanted to do. We had a whole meeting when we talked about it. The only reason I started working with Tark was because they told me they were going to change and they meant it. We'll see that again. They told me they were going to change and they meant it. Every single step of the way since I started working for them, I have seen nothing but change. I think their office is 60% maybe even more black or POC. Folks will work there. The folks on their PR list. They are definitely showing a trajectory of change. This is not a Tarte sponsorship. This is me just simply saying they're brands like that that happen. And I see the evolution and they're brands like Euphoria that would clearly only use your outrage to make money and then no actually change. Like tear tears and then the example of a brand that did not even think of you in the first place and is not doing the work to even think of you. They're not hiring black creators. They're not hiring black execs. They're not hiring black people. They're simply just going back to the lab and getting the shade that they should have had in the first place just so then they can come back to you and say, hey, here we did it and then you go and put on your fishing. You're like, oh my god, wow, great job. And then the cycle continues and then the cycle continues and it just pisses me the fuck off. Sorry. Now you can talk. This is my rant is over. Comments. Okay. I see a comment from Nale says, I've been saying this since that brand released the Pitch Black Foundation. I don't know why everyone else isn't fucking it. Jackie responds, I will say this was the most absolute best example of this. That is so true. Literally, that was the best example of a brand generally knowing we're going to get outrage about this and then they just continue doing it. Like, I'll never forget the this is controversy and I'm only bringing up tart because that's one of the closest brands that I know. I have seen the immediate change. Lancome is a good example of that too because Lancome released. Lancome didn't release or they discontinued. Lancome discontinued a foundation recently. It was like one of their darkest foundation shades. It was an opera, a good TikTok mutual of mine talked about it and they came back with a foundation and even did like different variations of that. That to me was like, oh my god, there was saw an issue. The merely responded, they're fine. Who the beauty is a good example of that too? Where they had some issues with their shades, came online, explained what happened, show you how they're going to fix it. These other brands do not give a flying fuck. They do not give a flying fuck. And I think when I'm saying this now, folks are probably thinking, well, Galore is an example of a creator who is amplifying the voices of saying this. And I'm like, yes, but what's happening is at whose expense? Is it not at her mental health expense? I don't know. Right? Because when Galore posted video and she's talking about these brands, not giving a flying fudge about us because these beauty brands do not. The thing pieces, the conversations that happen around it is so exhausting because the folks who are seeing that content just want to nail her to a cross, nail her to a coffin. They just want to basically belittle her and break her down rather than build her up. And I think that's when my frustration comes in and I feel very exhausted for her and the work she's doing, which is important work, is pivotal work, but it's still at whose expense a black woman. And I think that's the least unfortunate. Another comment, go ahead. So, because this topic, I'm so disconnected from it. Mm-hmm. Right? Because I don't really understand makeup. But I saw this video. Because I was trying to understand like the shading, right? Because I'm like, oh, it's dark, you put it on your face, like it's in double foundation, it's supposed to be. But then I saw this video and this was a song comparing youthful as a first one. And then Fancy is the second one. Yes, I saw that. So it took me a second to understand what was going on here. The first one looks like a chocolate. But the second one, it kind of has like skin tone. Yes, the balance to it. Yes. So basically what the youthful foundation discourse was, a brand released a foundation that was pitch black. They released that in response to the fact that we said the shade range wasn't enough. The shade range, they put out, they stop at my color. When there are other people color, there are other people who are darker than me, right? So they said, here you go, take it. And instead of creating four, five, six more shades, they created one pitch black shades. So you black, here you go. Well, nobody's pitch black. Exactly. No one is pitch black. But they were some creators who are darker skins, darker skins, so like south Sudanese. I'm thinking right up her name, I can't say her name, I forget it. But she did a video where she tried the foundation and it worked for her. I used works in this estimation. But what is this? Quotex, and then Gloria used it as she's like, no, this is actual black face paint. And I think the discourse then was why it was a lot. People are like dragging it for you. But also, I know people who want to be like, oh, well, if they don't have my shade, I know they probably have white shades. Let me go buy some. So they still made money. We've been with our outrage. And I think they've been responded with like two or three more shades. But it still wasn't them actually responding or caring. They did not do the work. And they're not going to do it. I don't think they're interested in doing the work. Okay, let's see. Yeah, it's like the redemption arc is a new marketing tool. Shalom Black says, I've always felt like that, especially when we brands as old as they. How are you 20 years in the game and still release in DS? Like the YSL blush is an example of that. YSL just released a blush line that was mostly not able to be marketed to as a universal shade. Basically, they released a shade line that was not universally marketable. It was very much for if you are from the medium to fair range versus medium to deep. And the marketing is universal. So if you're a deep to fair, you can use it. Which is unacceptable. Now, this is my thing with marketing. And I might have this might be in a popular opinion. An odd nugget, if you will. An odd popular opinion. No. Odd nugget. Odd nugget. I think it's okay for brands to only cater to certain people. I do. I think it's definitely okay for certain brands to market certain things to certain people. I think YSL could have marketed that blush as a medium to light blush. It kept it as that. And then they could create blushes from medium to deep tones. They could do it as that. I think about it like a week. One size an example of that. When they create powders, you get the fair. You get the medium deep or whatever and get deep. It's okay to market to certain populations of people because that's okay. That's normal. It's the same with curly hair textures and curly hair types and whatever. They're marketing directly to the people they want to serve. And I think that's okay. I think the issue we make up in the beauty industry is the beauty industry is yet to realize that the black buying power is enough to sustain a directly targeted audience. So if you only create a foundation shade, a foundation line, by solely serving medium to deep tones, you're like, oh, we're losing money. And I don't think that's true. I don't think that's true. I think it's a huge possibility that you can actually create a makeup line for medium to deep tones and not include markets to fold above that. I see that from like Nigerian creators. Like Nigerian beauty, if you got it, it's so interesting living in a country while you're not the majority. Like, it's a very interesting concept for me. Because when I go back home and I see brands create shades, they're not creating medium to face shades. They're simply creating medium to deep shades. Or sometimes maybe like lighter ones, but not as light to like create that other side. And when I see that, it's not abnormal to me. Right? It's not abnormal to me. So I think it's very interesting when I look at it from the context of America. And I understand the need for it to be diversified, but I also always want to push back on that. Sometimes it's okay to just target your marketing campaign. It's okay to also just target certain people the way you want it. Especially if you don't want to. Exactly. Right? Because at the same time, we keep fighting to be in spaces we're not welcome in. Right. It's like, it's a never ending disappointing fight. To live in America as a black person is a constant battle. And it is exhausting to simply even continuously see that battle and feel helpless with it. Especially looking at it from the beauty space, even in the fashion space. Like, come on. Was it Gabriel Union? Who was the black actress? Who was at Khan's film festival? And she was like being rushed off the market. I can't read carpet. Kelly Rowland, rush of the red carpet. We still see folks like Taraji P. Henson, like, by all the Davis talk about, this disparity of like dark skin black actresses versus like white actresses. We see to be live in America as a black woman is to be in constant battle. And so even seeing that with regards to beauty, like, I worked for a global company. And when I first started doing my makeup there, I looked crazy. They had global makeup artists doing my face. And I looked like I was punched in the face 50 times today. Like, my, the makeup was just trash. It was so bad. And that was, these are globally trained makeup artists who were supposed to know how to do dark skin. I'm honestly, I'm not even, to depend. I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I just, at least six to ten more shade. It's for me at the end. And I still struggled with that. So I, when I see discourse like this, I get exhausted for folks like Gloria, folks like Jackie, who are constantly battling these narratives and who are trying to, to fix it. When for someone like me, and again, such an odd opinion, such an unpopular opinion, I don't understand why we're fighting that battle because I don't think we can win. And this is not a defeatist mentality, right? This is me seeing it from a majority versus minority standpoint, right? Especially in an American context. I hope I don't get in trouble for the spirit. Because I think there needs to be discourse and more money put into amplifying and investing in the black dollar and in the black economy. So we create shades for ourselves. If we look at the Asian market and Asian population, they create their own shades. Like they have targeted markets for their people, for their concept. It's targeted. It's there. I wonder what it looks, what it would look like if we did the same. If it's a fenty beauty, only ever marketed to black women, right? Or to POCs, what would that look like? I don't know, I don't know what the success could look like, but I'm just curious to see what that kind of marketing would bring. It's a good point. Invest in the black dollar and don't change the white dollar. Pretty much. Yeah. But that's hard, it's America. Hey, next topic. I have a comment. Oh, God. The last comment says, I have a great undertone, so I kind of want to try this. And the commentator responds, please go and have a doctor check you because that can be healthy. Why can't she have a great undertone? That's a troll. That's a definitely troll. Okay. Only dead people out there. My friend Sonya says, only dead people have great undertone. All right, y'all. Our final odd topic for this episode. Kamala Harris goes on call for daddy. The Gluck Gluck 3000 or 9,000 podcasts. I can't believe you just had those two things in the same. I'm telling you, I don't know about you, but I thought, okay. I, when I first heard Kamala Harris is going on call her daddy, I thought that's the smartest thing she can do. Because first of all, call her daddy is one of the biggest most listened to podcasts in the world. Alex Cooper has done something we call her daddy that no woman has been able to do in the podcast space. Let's give her that, right? Let's give her that. Now, there's a lot of nuances about the fact that she's a white woman and she can talk about sex and it could only impact her career and all of that. But that's at the side. The point is she has a huge podcast. She has a huge, she has a very, now here's the thing. I saw a comment that said she has a really diverse listening group or whatever. And it wasn't, it wasn't. Go ahead, Donald, Donald has a comment. So I want to add something. When I was checking this, the first time she announced that Kamala Harris was going to be on the pod, did you see the comments? Crazy. But that's the thing, no. So every call her daddy events that have been privileged to walk past because I couldn't go in because it was so white. Like I was oftentimes one of maybe three to five black girls who went in. Like, I'm going to throw this out there. The dream for my podcast when I first started was to get signed to the Onwell Network. And let me say this about call her daddy. I really, really admire the fact that Alex Cooper has been able to call her daddy as the way she has been able to do it because I don't think it's easy to navigate the space in the way she's done it, especially when you start with something like the Glock Lock 3000 or 9000 and then end with interviewing the potential president of the United States. I think that's a crazy trajectory that we're oftentimes missing here. But I also think the fact that she's a white woman has a lot to do with it. She's blonde, a lot to do with it. However, with this particular situation, Alex's audience is pretty much middle-aged white women and young women, like that's it. Like she's like, that's why she signed an Alex Earl, right? It's very much like the white girl. Alex Cooper is like the white girl of the white girl for the white girls, right? So when I saw her comments where they were like, why would you do that to us? What was it that she had? I'm not going to move. I was in two shots, that was a bit shocked because I thought the girls understood that the other side of the election, the other side of the fuck with the girls like that. Like it makes no sense. It makes no sense to support the other side right now. If we're talking about women's issues, but she also ensured that podcast so well. Like if you watch the episode, she says, I don't think I'm qualified. I'm not going to speak on fracking or anything other than women's rights, which makes sense. She is a women's podcast. And I think that was such a beautiful thing to do to get started. Simply just call out your BS and say, I don't know what the fuck I'm doing, but what I do know is I can talk about women all day and I'm going to talk about women. And the question she asked the vice president and the way Kamala hands her that, just hits. Such a beautiful podcast. It started off a bit rough, but it ended up pretty well because it ended up just amplifying the fact that Kamala is the voice for women in this election, unfortunately. I do not think you can argue that a JD Vance and Donald Trump are the voice for women. There's no way. It makes no eye check. How? How are you going to argue that? I do want to clarify something in the debate former president Trump claimed that some states are executing babies after birth. Can you just clarify? That is not happening anywhere in the United States. It is not happening. And it's alive. Just it's an old-faced line that he is suggesting that, can you imagine? Can you imagine? He is suggesting that women in their ninth month of pregnancy are electing to have an abortion. Are you kidding? That is so outrageously inaccurate and it's so insulting to suggest that that would be happening and that women would be doing it. She made a comment in the episode where she said, I've never met a woman who is aspiring to be humble. Aspiring to be humble? Oh, inject that into my veins. I have never met a woman who is aspiring to be humble. Chef's kiss. You look confused. What's going on? No, you're right. You're right. Okay. I know I started this. I said like, why should we kiss? Why should we kiss? This one I think we need to care. Go ahead and vote. Honestly, this is one part of the internet. I don't understand. Yeah. I don't get the the Trump versus Kamala. Like, it makes no sense. If you can't see that, Donald, because the people who, okay, so here's the thing. I think we, I think the biggest thing, let's put the politics hat on, no second, real quick. American politics is interesting because we used to elect candidates right, based on qualifications. And at some points, the American populist realized Barack Obama happened. And I think there was a literal reaction to the fact that they just had a black president that they had to elect someone who was the Barack Obama. Like, why would America say we did too much? Really back? And I think they ruled it too back to where Donald Trump became elected, right? And they also ended up being an interesting space to watch because Donald Trump is not a politician. He's a crazy person. This is not up for debate. Like, crazy in the sense that this is someone who literally says lies. Like, he looks at you in the eye and lies. Or it doesn't even say anything that matters. Not that. That, like, the fact that about a thousand plus people in this administration are supporting Kamala Harris to say a lot. Mind you, I've not even talked about my own political affiliations. I'm just saying this as a fact. Like, this man has been said to not have been qualified to do anything, right? And for women to watch this podcast, and for women to comment and say, why would you support that? I think they're often guided by Democrats versus Republicans rather than issues at hand, right? Because I think if you voted for issues, Kamala would win. Does that make sense? I think you're, you're trying to give a pass. Yeah. In a world that, like, there's no understanding. I think there is, though. And I don't think the understanding is that they are right or wrong. I think it's just racism. You know, they just racist. I'm not so gay. I still think, I still say, you know, say this is very tricky, right? Because this is a good example of like, the two types of people who give you the urge. Yes. They are people who are sound in their minds. And they are people who cannot say before, not sound my... No, no, no, it's true. And you can come for me. And because like, if you watch any video of Trump, there's no good one. There's no good take. Yeah, there's no good. Or his vice president. You know, or even the people that support him, there's no good take. Honestly, also, but I'm African, no, I don't look to my leaders for guidance. I don't. I think the biggest shock of the comments is that like, that entire interview was about women's rights. Yes. You have women in the comments. We're saying you can't. For a man who literally has said some crazy things about women, I said, okay, let's say this to wrap it up. I think it was the smartest thing that Kamala Harris went on call her daddy. I think Alex Cooper is an incredible job on call her daddy. I think the questions were intentional and smart. And I also think that women need to wake the fuck up and realize there is no law in America governing men's bodies. But there's several laws governing women's bodies. I think we need to understand that women, women are still second class citizens in the world, no matter what we want to believe. We are still second class citizens in America. You're the, how you behave, where you go to school, how much money you're able to earn. You are still constantly being put behind a man at every step of the way. There is no equality. There is no equity to be a woman, especially in this country. You might think there is, where there is not. So voting someone like, honestly, when I'm getting to voting, I just want women to understand that and end it as that. Especially if you're a woman who's listening to this. And honestly, across the world as well. Now, it's going to be the end of our topics for today. Donald, follow these. Just relax. Because Donald is okay. We're going to discuss this. Okay. Donald holds one more thing. This interview, right? Which I took her. Because she said in the intro that she asked Donald Trump. And he said he was. And he said, no, they said they didn't hear back. Yes. When was the last interview that Trump did with a woman? That went well. Yes. All right, folks. That is the end of today's episode of Am I too loud with selfie? AKA the oddity. I think it was a bit too loud in this one. But you let me know because I think I was. But also, you're never too loud. So what am I talking about anyways? I love you so much.
