Speaker 4: Yeah, I want to talk about something real quick.
Speaker 2: Okay, we have to just share because I have to
Speaker 2: tell you about how I went on vacation.
Speaker 4: Went a vacation too, Oh yeah, I was. I forgot
Speaker 4: hold on Ramona from the Real Housewives of New York.
Speaker 4: The Ramona singer Yeah, brought.
Speaker 1: Chicken Neanderthal, white demon is what she is, so she
Speaker 1: uh she there's a clip of.
Speaker 4: Her going around on the internet.
Speaker 1: Being a white woman and belittling the experience of a
Speaker 1: black woman that I happen to know, uh through Fran
Speaker 1: beautiful soul, beautiful soul. But the way that white women
Speaker 1: have the fucking audacity to to take on this condescending
Speaker 1: tone when you will never fucking understand what we go through,
Speaker 1: what we have to go through in life in general,
Speaker 1: but around specific experiences. And so she she was belittling
Speaker 1: uh her Leonard's experience, uh birthing experience and what she
Speaker 1: says she faced from the you know, from the doctors
Speaker 1: and how they treated her poorly as a black woman,
Speaker 1: which I can relate to when I was thirty six
Speaker 1: weeks thirty six weeks and I was I did not
Speaker 1: have any insurance whatsoever, none, and I was on Medicaid.
Speaker 1: And basically, when you're on Medicaid and you're pregnant, you
Speaker 1: have to go to a clinic or you have to
Speaker 1: go to a hospital, a clinic that is you know,
Speaker 1: over over that is overseen by a hospital or what
Speaker 1: have you. But you are basically given whatever doctor is
Speaker 1: available that day.
Speaker 4: Right, There's so.
Speaker 1: Many things that you are not entitled to that even
Speaker 1: somebody with insurance has and we know that a black
Speaker 1: woman with insurance is treated less than and poorly within
Speaker 1: the medical field. So with some individuals, not all, but overall,
Speaker 1: this has been our experience from if you go back,
Speaker 1: I know, I know.
Speaker 4: We mentioned something about slavery every episode.
Speaker 1: Because it applies if you go back, we were the ones.
Speaker 1: Black women were the ones the enslaved. Black women were
Speaker 1: the ones who were tested on. We were the ones
Speaker 1: they tested instruments on on how they needed to maneuver
Speaker 1: around the reproductive system and so forth.
Speaker 4: So don't tell me that we ain't been treated fairly.
Speaker 4: From Jump.
Speaker 1: I had a man, yeah, an East European man, Eastern
Speaker 1: European man, who asked me at thirty six weeks.
Speaker 4: Why are you not dilated? And I was like, oh, nigga,
Speaker 4: because she's not cooking up cooking, I guess.
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't fucking know. You're the doctor,
Speaker 1: like it's not time yet, I'm thirty six weeks.
Speaker 4: And you know what he did. He opened my cervix.
Speaker 1: I'm going through help and instead of allowing my body
Speaker 1: to progress naturally, which there was nothing wrong, there was
Speaker 1: nothing in jeopardy. The baby's heart rate wasn't up none
Speaker 1: of that. This nigga stuck his whole for his whole
Speaker 1: fore arm, whole thing up to the elbow, just before
Speaker 1: the elbow, up my vagina. But it wasn't in a
Speaker 1: way where he explained what was getting ready to happen.
Speaker 4: We know about opening up a cervix.
Speaker 1: It was he shoved his arm, his forearm up my vagina.
Speaker 1: For the men who are listening to this, let somebody
Speaker 1: come and shove their whole fucking forearm to their elbow,
Speaker 1: up your fucking.
Speaker 4: Asshole and see how you feel.
Speaker 1: And a white woman's gonna get up here and tell
Speaker 1: somebody based off of their own experiences she don't know
Speaker 1: shit about and be condescending and tell, well, what.
Speaker 4: Do you you really think?
Speaker 1: What do you what do you really think would happen
Speaker 1: if I went as a white woman? Fuck you, Ramona,
Speaker 1: I'll put hands and feet on your bitch ass. Somebody
Speaker 1: should cut your stupid ass like a fish.
Speaker 3: You know what I hate?
Speaker 2: I hate that Bravo and a couple of other people
Speaker 2: have these and I don't want to be minimize the
Speaker 2: people of color that are on these shows. And I
Speaker 2: will say what I'm going to say, still I hate
Speaker 2: these diversity hires on these shows. Two because you felt
Speaker 2: like you have to do that now because of the
Speaker 2: way of the political climate, or you'll get canceled or
Speaker 2: whatever the fuck?
Speaker 4: What the you doing with Andy?
Speaker 1: He was like putting a young black girl in a
Speaker 1: class form of white girls.
Speaker 5: Stop.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, Please go ahead, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: And you know you have you know the black women
Speaker 3: on these shows.
Speaker 2: Put them on these all white shows and have them
Speaker 2: their whole storyline is them having to educate all six
Speaker 2: other of these you know white hef was on the
Speaker 2: show about how they've been complecent of racism or or
Speaker 2: how they're just be racist, and then the black woman
Speaker 2: is there to just be like, hey, that's racist.
Speaker 3: No it's not, Yes it is.
Speaker 1: I mean, I hope she's not gonna get on a
Speaker 1: soapbox and start preaching to us.
Speaker 4: She said, it's gonna be fun.
Speaker 6: Do you understand I cry at I wish I was shot.
Speaker 7: I just said, we're not gonna make it about you.
Speaker 4: Is that why?
Speaker 8: Like?
Speaker 9: I just.
Speaker 2: Like garcel right fancy she on Beverly Hills and so
Speaker 2: like she's had to confront even most recently Kathy Hilton,
Speaker 2: you know about like people not seeing color, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean, And that conversation wasn't as intense, but
Speaker 2: like Crystal Minkoff, who you know is Confucius as you know,
Speaker 2: direct descendant, you know, got into it with the white
Speaker 2: woman about not seeing color, are being you know, blind
Speaker 2: to race, and it's just like, you know, this would
Speaker 2: have never come up on any other time if there
Speaker 2: were people of color on the show. So it's like,
Speaker 2: I hate the fact that you all have to. It's
Speaker 2: just ingenuous. It's like you don't really want these black
Speaker 2: people on here, really, you just want them for what
Speaker 2: they can do for you or to make to make
Speaker 2: good on what you know, you think the world wants
Speaker 2: to see. So it's like it's like, yeah, there's and
Speaker 2: I don't want to again, you know, minimize because yeah
Speaker 2: it's great, Yeah they deserve, people of color deserve.
Speaker 3: To be on these shows.
Speaker 2: But it's also like we can see where the jig is,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Yo.
Speaker 1: She Ramona, you can choke, bitch, you can motherfucking choke.
Speaker 1: I hope somebody runs over your ass with a motherfucking
Speaker 1: Kia sport.
Speaker 4: I fucking hate you. I ut somebody.
Speaker 1: I hope they scalp your ass deserved, slow fucking torture you.
Speaker 4: Cunt. That's what they like to use. Cunt, So I

Speaker 1: I know I have not left my Patreon users hanging,
Speaker 1: but it might feel like I have. I'm shifting things
Speaker 1: over to another space. So the transition, we've been doing
Speaker 1: the transition of all of that and getting everything together.
Speaker 1: So there will be some fun announcements coming.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: And then you know, I went away with Frania and
Speaker 1: Crystal Jean this past weekend. We just we just went
Speaker 1: a couple hours away to kind of get out of
Speaker 1: the madness for a little bit and had just a
Speaker 1: really pleasant weekend in the in the trees, and.
Speaker 4: I'll leave it there. It was.
Speaker 1: It was a good time, and it was beautiful being
Speaker 1: just in a space with some of my sisters, and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's nice to just where you can
Speaker 1: just put all you know, put all the guards down,
Speaker 1: take the brawls off, walk around in the caftains, and
Speaker 1: you don't really have to worry about anything but feeding yourself,
Speaker 1: washing your body, and you're in a safe environment. And
Speaker 1: so I'm grateful for that. And we had a beautiful weekend.
Speaker 1: How is your weekend? You and the mister went on
Speaker 1: a vacation.
Speaker 4: That's what they said, apply to.
Speaker 2: Shoe.
Speaker 4: You deserve my bake, Cae shine.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we did.
Speaker 2: It was a So I do want to mention that
Speaker 2: the subject of this episode is kinds from a listener
Speaker 2: who asked us if we could do, like, you know,
Speaker 2: how to live on a budget or whatever. And I'm
Speaker 2: going to say that, yes, we went on a vacation,
Speaker 2: a little vacation, but it was on a budget. So
Speaker 2: we went to Vegas.
Speaker 3: I was and.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have never been to Vegas as an adult.
Speaker 2: I've only been as a kid, and even when I
Speaker 2: was a kid, we only went to Circus Circus. Oh okay,
Speaker 2: because my mother's place was actually Reno, which oh so
Speaker 2: it's not as hot in Reno.
Speaker 4: Okay, got it.
Speaker 2: So we literally booked the trip the day before. Oh
Speaker 2: when I tell you, flight room and everything was like
Speaker 2: five twenty five wait what I know? And we stayed
Speaker 2: at the Mirage like in like one of those like sweets.
Speaker 2: So so here's the thing. The only reason why it
Speaker 2: only happened was because it was like, oh, well, it
Speaker 2: ain't that much in theory, you know what I mean, Like, yeah,
Speaker 2: what is expensive.
Speaker 3: Is like weed?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, like like the libation part is expensive, except
Speaker 2: you know, except if you right. So it's like if
Speaker 2: you go buy a bottle off the off the strip
Speaker 2: and blah blah, you'll be fine. So like there's ways
Speaker 2: to get around it. But I will say that going
Speaker 2: to we didn't it was too hot to like do
Speaker 2: a lot, because for whatever reason, we decided it would
Speaker 2: be a great idea to go to the middle of
Speaker 2: the fucking desert in August.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I forget. Global warming has hit new your
Speaker 4: card so August it has been pleasant.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well, let me tell you something. It was
Speaker 2: one hundred and nine degrees every.
Speaker 3: Day I was there.
Speaker 4: That even me Jesus Christ.
Speaker 3: And it had the nerve to be humid.
Speaker 2: So like when we got there, the lyft Uber ride
Speaker 2: share person was like, it's never humid. So this is
Speaker 2: like I don't even He's like he was even too
Speaker 2: hot for me. And I was like, oh so I
Speaker 2: guess wait.
Speaker 1: Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait it was
Speaker 1: one hundred and nine degrees and it was humid.
Speaker 4: Mm hmmm, nigga, you went you went to vacation and
Speaker 4: a ziplock back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it wasn't like super duper humid, but there was
Speaker 2: the level of humidity to the point where like we
Speaker 2: would only go outside between the hours of six like
Speaker 2: five am and like seven am because and that's when
Speaker 2: the temperature at the lowest was like ninety.
Speaker 4: Oh god, kiss my ass.
Speaker 2: So like we stayed like we just stayed in the Castino.
Speaker 2: I mean, our hotel was big. So it's like, you know,
Speaker 2: there's plenty of shit to do, you know.
Speaker 3: What I mean.
Speaker 2: So I've learned that you should go through booking dot com,
Speaker 2: you know, but there's also if you just look up
Speaker 2: like Vegas is. If you fly during the week, it's
Speaker 2: a lot cheaper. And as far as cleanliness, I didn't
Speaker 2: feel any type of like, oh this is unclean. If anything,
Speaker 2: I was more impressed than anything. What they have now
Speaker 2: is they have not only do they have like hand
Speaker 2: sanitizer cleaning cleaning stuff, but every hotel we went into,
Speaker 2: because we went to Caesar's Palace and they're owned by
Speaker 2: different people, every entrance had the hand sanitizer and a
Speaker 2: box of masks that are individually wrapped so you did
Speaker 2: for you to tell yeah, I was like, oh, that's true, right,
Speaker 2: And they also have people in there disinfecting the slot
Speaker 2: like the tables.
Speaker 3: I was. I was actually quite surprised, right.
Speaker 2: Because I was like, because there's way too many, you know,
Speaker 2: it's a lot of activity, a lot of like transmission

Speaker 3: I have to like recall shit for me to AnyWho
Speaker 3: which has.
Speaker 4: Which has made you.
Speaker 1: It's so funny that you say that because and this
Speaker 1: has happened on the show too. Black people have a
Speaker 1: gift of like giving the most obscure description about something
Speaker 1: and then and then another black person.
Speaker 4: Just gets it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, which is where all.
Speaker 1: From the nineties came from, because we literally know which
Speaker 1: one we're talking about each time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, or like how I just learned what Keith Hering
Speaker 2: was and I was like the nigga who draw like
Speaker 2: stick figures, Yeah, and niggas do what I was talking about.
Speaker 1: So I just I think that's a gift that we have, honestly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, we're observationalists. Yeah, we are because we got
Speaker 2: to know what the enemy is.
Speaker 4: Doing and we have a third eye.
Speaker 2: Mm hm, stay woke, Stay woke. Uh, let's take a
Speaker 2: break and we'll be back with more after.
Speaker 7: This, after these messages will be right back.
Speaker 3: Either.
Speaker 8: I'm the hominable snowman. Did you know that you are
Speaker 8: the boss of your own money? That's a special thing.
Speaker 8: You can buy the first thing that catches your eyes
Speaker 8: like this, or something that costs less like this balloon,
Speaker 8: or costs more.
Speaker 3: Like this swell.
Speaker 8: No, of course, several different things, or you can save
Speaker 8: it or something you haven't even thought of giving.
Speaker 3: And we're black.
Speaker 2: Us to talk about like how to survive in New York,
Speaker 2: you know, on a low budget, Okay, And I feel
Speaker 2: like this pandemic has definitely, you know, aided with I mean,
Speaker 2: we've done an episode before about this, but I feel
Speaker 2: like now we can you know, what are some tips
Speaker 2: we've had or like, you know, over this pandemic or
Speaker 2: even in the past where we've been like, girl, I've
Speaker 2: been broke, because let me tell you something in general,
Speaker 2: like societal I am very broke still, you know what
Speaker 2: I mean, Like.
Speaker 3: I don't have no money like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it actually very I am broke, and that's also
Speaker 2: a thing people think you're doing successful because you announce
Speaker 2: all these things or whatever, and it's just like, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: that is cool, but niggas are still broke, so.
Speaker 4: And underhead, you know, paying for head all of that.
Speaker 1: So you know.
Speaker 2: But I do remember, like when I was living in
Speaker 2: New York, there was a part I didn't work for
Speaker 2: a whole year, like I was just working. I was
Speaker 2: just living off of like very small YouTube checks on
Speaker 2: some like.
Speaker 3: Like after grad school.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was like on some like maybe like five
Speaker 2: hundred dollars a month, like for a year. I did
Speaker 2: not have any like a solid income.
Speaker 4: I think that was well, no, well did you have assistance?
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, like I had.
Speaker 2: I'm exaggerating like I had, Like yes, I had my
Speaker 2: mother help me, but she didn't help me much because
Speaker 2: she couldn't like my mother, Like oh yes, not at
Speaker 2: first though, Oh okay, because remember I told you I
Speaker 2: didn't get all welfare into It's not what excuse me,
Speaker 2: I didn't get a public assistance.
Speaker 3: It's habit.
Speaker 4: It's habit.
Speaker 3: I didn't.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't go to the public assistance until Monique
Speaker 2: won her oscar because remember I said, if Monique wins
Speaker 2: her oscar, I'm going to take my ass down to
Speaker 2: the welfare so.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, okay.
Speaker 2: And the next day after she won, me and a
Speaker 2: couple of friends of mine, we didn't have anybody. We
Speaker 2: walked from my place down to the that's the public
Speaker 2: assistance office that used to be on.
Speaker 3: Was that Franklin and Dical?
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, that was the food stamp office with all
Speaker 1: of them hateful bitches.
Speaker 4: Yes that was yes, because I was on the government
Speaker 4: assistance when I was pregnant. You want to talk about
Speaker 4: a budget m hmm.
Speaker 1: One of my favorite budget mills when I was.
Speaker 2: I mean, just bokeem is Beoukeeman today.
Speaker 1: One of my favorite males, which is very uh what's
Speaker 1: the word diosparic, diaspiric?
Speaker 4: What's the word.
Speaker 3: Black?
Speaker 4: Okay, there we go, black of origin. I would make
Speaker 4: white rice or brown rice, you know whatever you niggas prefer.
Speaker 4: I give me some sausage.
Speaker 3: No fuck that white rice. The ain't nothing wrong.
Speaker 2: See people beat whitet rice has never done us wrong
Speaker 2: as a community. People want to leave it has it
Speaker 2: has kept us alive and well you see, people.
Speaker 4: Nigga stole us for Rice, Nigga, like.
Speaker 1: Garvey, they stole us for Rice to get our expertise
Speaker 1: or Rice.
Speaker 4: Me and Noah have been reading the Addie books. She
Speaker 4: cried last night because so we're on the.
Speaker 1: First book and I didn't even like. So we're on
Speaker 1: the first book and so we at the top, Nigga
Speaker 1: wed in like chapter two, Nigga. Maybe we're on three
Speaker 1: now and already ADDIE's brother and father have been sold.
Speaker 3: Oh, yes they have.
Speaker 9: Yes.
Speaker 3: The first is about her. Yeah, the first BIC is
Speaker 3: about her going to school exactly.
Speaker 4: Wait is that the first one?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 4: Wait, no, it's meat. Maybe the second one.
Speaker 1: Is about going to school. I'll go get the stack
Speaker 1: in a little bit. But so, so Addie heard overheard
Speaker 1: her parents talking about running away. She was pretending she
Speaker 1: was sleep and they were up late, and so she
Speaker 1: heard them talking about running away. The very next day,
Speaker 1: Leonardo DiCaprio comes to the plantation and he buys her
Speaker 1: brother and her father.
Speaker 4: But she overhears it because she's got to.
Speaker 1: Serve Leonardo DiCaprio and the other man water, so's she's
Speaker 1: pouring water for them, and she hears them talking, and
Speaker 1: she just knew instinctively that they were talking about her brother,
Speaker 1: and then learned they were talking about.
Speaker 4: Her father as well.
Speaker 1: So the day after she heard her parents talking about
Speaker 1: the slavery, they take her.
Speaker 4: Well. Then, so Noah was like, she cries then because
Speaker 4: she's like, I can't imagine if that happened in my family.
Speaker 1: And then you know, so then we got into a
Speaker 1: discussion where I was like, you know, you have a
Speaker 1: privilege of living during this time, I said, but it's
Speaker 1: important that you understand all of what Even if this
Speaker 1: is a fictional story, it's still a depiction of what
Speaker 1: we were actually going through as a people, I said,
Speaker 1: And your direct ancestors went through this, and so it's
Speaker 1: important that you understand that, and that you learn about
Speaker 1: this so you can understand your own privilege, understand your gratitude.
Speaker 1: See how far we've come, see how far we have
Speaker 1: to go, you know, so forth and so on. But
Speaker 1: she's crying. Then you know, she calms down. We keep reading,
Speaker 1: well nigger. The next thing, I was like, God damn.
Speaker 1: So the next thing, So after her daddy and her
Speaker 1: brother are sold, her mother's like, so bust it. We're
Speaker 1: running a night like that said, we going to Philly
Speaker 1: and ADDIE's like, Okay, I'm scared, but we're doing it.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 1: Then Mom's like, but we're not taking your baby sister. Well, nigga,
Speaker 1: I forgot about that part.
Speaker 3: I don't remember that part.
Speaker 1: They did not because she had like a two year
Speaker 1: old baby sister. And she was like, essentially like all
Speaker 1: the things we say here on Jada next Day is
Speaker 1: what her mother said.
Speaker 4: She was like, that kid is holding us back. I'm sorry.
Speaker 4: She's like, if she cries, it's dead giveaway. Nigga, We're done.
Speaker 4: We're done for her. You can't got bad vibes. You
Speaker 4: can't got bad vibes.
Speaker 1: Okay, they can't got bad live there's another she's got.
Speaker 1: Her destiny is different than ours. It's so therefore I
Speaker 1: was just the vessel. But she's got to stay here.
Speaker 1: That help is no good for her mission.
Speaker 4: And I was like, oh god, this is fucked up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But also, what were we talking about recently where
Speaker 1: kid was bag?
Speaker 2: What were we talking about sucking Hannah from from a Handmaids?
Speaker 4: What I'm saying, Hannah esther was Hannah. She was Hannah.
Speaker 1: Addie was trying to be June, but mom was like, ah.
Speaker 4: She was like I can't carry her about myself. Eddie's like,
Speaker 4: I'll carry you. She's like no. She was like she's
Speaker 4: gonna cry. She was like, I'll keep her quiet.
Speaker 1: She can play with my stuff, Teddy, and she was like, no,
Speaker 1: she gonna spook us.
Speaker 4: Addie begged for them to bring that baby, and the
Speaker 4: mother is like, no, ni.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh, it's terrible.
Speaker 4: It's terrible. It's terrible.
Speaker 8: No.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's still funny. But I was reading that, I
Speaker 2: was like, damn, that's some ship. Did you have to
Speaker 2: tell explain that to Noah?
Speaker 1: Well, she fell asleep as that was, I read until
Speaker 1: she falls asleep, so I can kind of tell when
Speaker 1: she does.
Speaker 4: I was like, so she didn't react to this, so
Speaker 4: she didn't hear it.
Speaker 1: But that means we got to go back because she's
Speaker 1: going to be in the story, so we don't have to.
Speaker 4: Deal with it.
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to see that's parenting again. You got
Speaker 2: to there's way, it's way more involved. Yeah, kids are cool,
Speaker 2: It's just the parenting part is.
Speaker 3: The problem for me, you know what I.
Speaker 2: Mean, Like, I have to do that ship like a
Speaker 2: you got to make sure you tape, you make your
Speaker 2: kid is on the straight and narrow because they're cutting
Speaker 2: out all the real facts and street out of the
Speaker 2: out of the school. Yeah, so then we gotta keep
Speaker 2: it going right and therefore you got to manage your
Speaker 2: your own trauma and how you dealt with this and order.
Speaker 4: Just like right, I want to I don't want to leave.
Speaker 4: I'm laughing because I really was like they said that,
Speaker 4: I was literally based. I was like ship.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I'm like, damn, this is
Speaker 1: traumatic for a kid to be hearing like, but we
Speaker 1: need to hear it, and we got to hear it
Speaker 1: from young because you need to understand inherently the ramonas
Speaker 1: of this world and where and how they o Cyrus
Speaker 1: and is shipping where it comes from?
Speaker 3: Mm hmmm.
Speaker 1: With her invalence, I hope somebody cuts off her baby toes.
Speaker 2: Speaking of Osiris, the race isn't They're about to announce
Speaker 2: season three of UK All Drag Race. I'm so surprised
Speaker 2: when people from the UK talked about like racism love.
Speaker 3: They've like, I've never experienced that, and it's just like
Speaker 3: I'm not like you know what I mean, it's like.
Speaker 4: How it was born there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like it's organically sourced.
Speaker 1: Truly, like I mean, locally sourced. Okay, all natural, locally source, honey,
Speaker 1: it really is.
Speaker 4: I just don't. I don't. I don't get it.
Speaker 3: But you could get it at the Herods, you know,
Speaker 3: like whatever.
Speaker 1: It's not everybody, because we do know that, you know,
Speaker 1: we know they deal with it over there, but I do.
Speaker 1: I don't understand when they say they don't they don't know,
Speaker 1: or like when the Dutch be trying to pretend like
Speaker 1: they wouldn't have part of the ship.
Speaker 4: Y'all took over quite a bit. Churiusal a couple of things.
Speaker 4: Don't try to.
Speaker 1: Oh, but that's what I was telling you earlier. Was
Speaker 1: my my poor man's meal when I was pregnant, which
Speaker 1: would get me by, which will work for anybody in
Speaker 1: a budget, I mean, and swap some shit out if
Speaker 1: you're vegan, and you know, I would use sausage.
Speaker 4: Get a little sausage.
Speaker 1: And okra, tomato and onion and white rice. If I
Speaker 1: was feeling fancy, I'd add a little corn. You season
Speaker 1: that up real good, nigga, and you throw you put
Speaker 1: that tomato and that onion and that ochra together and
Speaker 1: make like a stew and throw some sausage in it,
Speaker 1: or some chicken or whatever like protein you have access
Speaker 1: to and throw it over some rice.
Speaker 4: Literally like a eight.
Speaker 1: Dollar meal because okra is not expensive, Tomato is not expensive,
Speaker 1: rice is not expensive.
Speaker 4: You're meat. Your protein is going to be your highest cost.
Speaker 1: But that is a stretch. You out meal and some oatmeal.
Speaker 1: You have oatmeal for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch, and that
Speaker 1: for dinner.
Speaker 4: You can get by for a year if you're you can.
Speaker 2: Goodbye yeah, or you can have that you know, personal
Speaker 2: trainer meal where you have like that brown rice and
Speaker 2: green vegetables and you know, chicken breastato, yeah, or a
Speaker 2: sweet potato or beans.
Speaker 1: If you're a vegetarian, beans are the plug if you
Speaker 1: don't have no money.
Speaker 4: Beans, beans, the music go fruit, the lay you eat,
Speaker 4: the more you do.
Speaker 3: Let me tell you something.
Speaker 2: I you know, I dabble in the vegetarianism here and there,
Speaker 2: but like at the point where I was.
Speaker 3: Broke, I was like, no, I want meat.
Speaker 2: But like black beans are a great great even if
Speaker 2: you are on a budget.
Speaker 3: Black beans are great to have in your kitchen and
Speaker 3: general beans.
Speaker 2: Because you can just use them like I mean this
Speaker 2: fierce ass black bean soup.
Speaker 3: Ah so delicious.
Speaker 1: The thing about beans is you can, like you just said,
Speaker 1: you can do a black bean soup. You can do
Speaker 1: a curry lentil with some coconut milk. You could do
Speaker 1: just a black ass smoke turkey or hamhock and some
Speaker 1: great northerns or some pintoes. You can do some black
Speaker 1: eyed peas and some smoked meat. Like you can literally
Speaker 1: keep beans and make several different types of meals and
Speaker 1: they will stretch nigga and you can put it in
Speaker 1: a freezer. So anytime you're ready to just thows, they
Speaker 1: keep well and you throw them over some rice. That is,
Speaker 1: beans are the plug when you don't have any money
Speaker 1: but you want to change up flavors and you have
Speaker 1: to cook for yourself at home, right, unless you've got
Speaker 1: the little thing.
Speaker 2: Right, and then it's like it's called four Dollars a Day.
Speaker 2: It's his book, and it was geared. It was designed
Speaker 2: for people who live on public assistance or are use
Speaker 2: snap benefits. Yeah, so they'll have like things will tell you, well,
Speaker 2: this only cause is going to cost you a dollar
Speaker 2: sixty six to make, because all it is is fucking
Speaker 2: cauliflower and like salt and pepper, you know what I mean,
Speaker 2: or shit like that. But I also realized a lot
Speaker 2: of money that I spent in New York was on convenience, absolutely,
Speaker 2: and I think a lot of times people, yeah, I'm
Speaker 2: ritten expensive. I can't tell you how to get over that,
Speaker 2: unless if you apply for a New York City lottery apartment,
Speaker 2: but otherwise you knew the state is exactly So the
Speaker 2: only thing I could that be helpful to survive is
Speaker 2: like by reducing your food costs and your convenience costs.
Speaker 2: So what I've also learned is that people when they
Speaker 2: first moved to New York whatever, they tend to shop
Speaker 2: at places that they're used to at home, like Target.
Speaker 2: And I love Target, don't get me wrong, but if
Speaker 2: you're trying to be Target is Target. Costs are different
Speaker 2: everywhere you go, So you know it'll be helpful if
Speaker 2: you look in you around your neighborhood and shop at
Speaker 2: the mom pop stores, you know you'll definitely find cheaper options,
Speaker 2: especially cleaning supplies and stuff like that. I think that's
Speaker 2: just a major ideas. Just people want to move to
Speaker 2: these cities and they want to live like they used
Speaker 2: to back in you know wherever in Middle America, it's
Speaker 2: just like, well, no, you have to adjust because the
Speaker 2: cost of living.
Speaker 3: Is so high.
Speaker 4: Let me tell you something. A bargain store or a
Speaker 4: discount not a nine U nine sense store. You can
Speaker 4: find everything everything you need, especially on a budget.
Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: And also don't be afraid to go outside your brow either.
Speaker 2: I know that's a lot, but like for the lo Loo,
Speaker 2: if you want cleaning supply, especially ppe for the lo Loo.
Speaker 2: Like at the beginning of pandemic, my coworker at the time,
Speaker 2: she lived in Flushing, and so she was able to
Speaker 2: get me those K ninety five masks when there was
Speaker 2: when they weren't available, even though it was kind of
Speaker 2: racist what she said about it, but she Flushing is
Speaker 2: like has a large Asian community.
Speaker 3: But what she said was, she was like, well, you know,
Speaker 3: the Asian.
Speaker 2: Community already wears masks and ship in general, so it
Speaker 2: was kind of easier to obtain these things.
Speaker 4: That's facts. I said. We cleaned up what she said.
Speaker 4: I cleaned up what she said.
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, okay, because I was like, they've been doing this,
Speaker 1: they've been doing this.
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, So it's like, don't be afraid to like
Speaker 2: go outside of your borough. Like when I used to
Speaker 2: work in the Bronks, I would go to like on
Speaker 2: one hundred and seventieth Street and buy like ship from
Speaker 2: like the stores where they get ship that fell off
Speaker 2: the back of a truck d And you know, I'd
Speaker 2: have deodorant like mitcham and whatever for like a dollar.
Speaker 4: Do you I'm sorry this is off topic, but it
Speaker 4: just came to mind. Nigga.
Speaker 1: Did you hear that China and Russia are doing drills
Speaker 1: right now and we are their number one enemy?
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not surprised. I told you all we
Speaker 2: had to be We need to learn Mandarin.
Speaker 4: My cousin knows it.
Speaker 2: People people were all afraid and like we need to
Speaker 2: you know, it's it's putin mm.
Speaker 3: We need to learn Mandarin.
Speaker 4: That is frightening, nigga.
Speaker 3: But you know, I don't you know, all all great
Speaker 3: nations must fall, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: You know historically this this system is not sustainable. But
Speaker 1: I'm like, can you just go after the powers that be?
Speaker 3: Well, it's the people who put the powers.
Speaker 1: That be, and then we'd be going over there and
Speaker 1: we be going to other places and fucking with the civilians.
Speaker 3: Yeah, niggas go to Hawaii every day.
Speaker 1: B and they really they got to stop Hawaii a
Speaker 1: niggas to stop coming there.
Speaker 4: They said, please, please.
Speaker 2: We get it.
Speaker 3: We're in the same state. We don't want to be.
Speaker 3: But damn fine, but stay home.
Speaker 1: Don't want to be Hawaii never wanted to. Hawaii was
Speaker 1: supposed to not be a part of the United States.
Speaker 1: They were supposed to be saved, and they got thrown
Speaker 1: under the bus at the last minute.
Speaker 11: People from across the globe are drawn to the coastal town.
Speaker 3: Of Kailua, Hawaii.
Speaker 11: It's white sand beaches are among the nation's best. It
Speaker 11: even draws President Barack Obama, who vacations here with his
Speaker 11: family each Christmas. But the Neighborhood Board has a new
Speaker 11: message for the state towards an agency stopping.
Speaker 4: But they asked you to stop coming down.
Speaker 3: They do it all the time.
Speaker 2: They even do like an SNL sketch about like don't
Speaker 2: go to like Hawaii with the rock.
Speaker 3: So it's just like I people still do.
Speaker 4: And I would love to go.
Speaker 1: To Hawaii, but I sincerely am not planning any trips
Speaker 1: to Hawaii because I'm trying to respect what the natives
Speaker 1: of the island are asking.
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, And it's like, also, people don't research where
Speaker 2: they go, you know what I mean, like why would you?
Speaker 1: Or I guess people are honestly friend. I don't think
Speaker 1: it's that they don't research. I think they don't care.
Speaker 2: Mm also shout out to not shout out, but you know,
Speaker 2: peace to Haiti, yes very much. Uh save points you
Speaker 2: earthquake and a trapos storm coming. It's just like that
Speaker 2: country has been hit so hard so many times. It
Speaker 2: just it just feels like everything is like relentless. It's
Speaker 2: just I just hope that people of Haiti get a break,
Speaker 2: and I hope the you know, folks who are related
Speaker 2: to those are If you're in Haiti and listen to
Speaker 2: this show, know that we're with you.
Speaker 4: And hopefully the French will one day pay what they owe.
Speaker 9: You know.
Speaker 1: We talked about this a little bit on getting grown
Speaker 1: and I was like, y'all have got to stop saying
Speaker 1: that Haiti is cursed by God.
Speaker 4: You've I have to stop saying that, And yes they do.
Speaker 1: And I retweeted a tweet the other day that said,
Speaker 1: essentially the translation was the only the the only curse
Speaker 1: that Haiti has had is that of white supremacy, and
Speaker 1: so they can't catch a break on top of environmental things,
Speaker 1: they just can't.
Speaker 4: Catch a break. And I I do.
Speaker 1: I pray for the people of Haiti. I pray for
Speaker 1: the island, and I just they deserve so much more.
Speaker 1: They deserve so much more. And so yeah, we want
Speaker 1: to offer offer you know that from Jada x D.
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's take what more break?
Speaker 4: After these messages, will be right back.
Speaker 6: I'm Jimmy JJ walt. If you are medicare listen to this.
Speaker 6: I call them the one eight hundred number to see
Speaker 6: what extra Medicare benefits. I could get an actual person
Speaker 6: and you look at my zip pull and boom. I
Speaker 6: was offered extra benefits like dental programs.
Speaker 4: We used to pull up a little fighting.
Speaker 3: And we're black. Uh, what's like a real like struggle time, nigga?
Speaker 3: I is Poe.
Speaker 4: Like what do you? What do you mean? What are
Speaker 4: you asking me?
Speaker 3: Like where you've been? Like damn, like.
Speaker 2: I don't know, like have like this struggle moment like
Speaker 2: you had to rob he to hey, Paul liked the following.
Speaker 1: The day I went into labor, Wow, day I went
Speaker 1: into labor. So Basically, when I was pregnant, I had
Speaker 1: to stop working, like just stop working because I was
Speaker 1: pregnant and I was bleeding, I was having a I
Speaker 1: was having a There was a condition called a threaatened abortion,
Speaker 1: so I was dealing with that and I was bartending.
Speaker 1: So it's not like a nigga had a I had
Speaker 1: a four oh one K from an old job, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, but or from old jobs.
Speaker 4: But it's not like you know, you don't have when
Speaker 4: you're bartending. That's how you that's how you live.
Speaker 3: It's a gig. It's a gig type of job.
Speaker 1: And I had to quit bartending pretty early into my
Speaker 1: pregnancy when the plan was for me to stop working
Speaker 1: at a period of time. So then we had, you know,
Speaker 1: I went through my savings and then.
Speaker 4: Tristan was working and he got fired from a Hafel
Speaker 4: bitch who was plotting, and so we had hit a
Speaker 4: point where it was like, oh God, and.
Speaker 1: The day I went into labor after that white man
Speaker 1: shoved his forearm up my vagina. We didn't have no
Speaker 1: groceries in the house. We had bread and peanut butter
Speaker 1: and jelly, and I remember eating a peanut butter and
Speaker 1: jelly sandwich, like before I went to the hospital, and
Speaker 1: I was not only having.
Speaker 4: Contractions, and also like in a crazy I was also hungry.
Speaker 4: I was hungry, and we didn't really have any groceries
Speaker 4: in the house.
Speaker 1: And you know, then it's not like the niggas can
Speaker 1: just run out and go get me something right now,
Speaker 1: because I'm in labor.
Speaker 4: And it was just it was a time. I think
Speaker 4: he had just gotten a new job, like right around
Speaker 4: that time, so it was.
Speaker 1: Still building back up and things like that. But then
Speaker 1: you're living off one person's income and it's just a lot,
Speaker 1: and we you know, we have to One thing that
Speaker 1: I super respect about him that I've said before is
Speaker 1: that Tristan didn't have He's not a citizen and didn't
Speaker 1: have papers for a long long time in this country.
Speaker 1: And that's not to any fault of his own, which
Speaker 1: is why when people.
Speaker 4: Are like, well, I know these illegal immigrants and juah
Speaker 4: wah blah blah whah.
Speaker 1: You don't even know what the fuck you're talking about.
Speaker 1: Because half the time the shit costs thousands of dollars
Speaker 1: to do. You've got to have people sponsor you.
Speaker 4: It's like a whole. It's a whole to do, to.
Speaker 1: Eat, even get a green card, to become a legal resident.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, y'all, don't make it easy.
Speaker 1: So when people speak from a place of privilege, I'm like,
Speaker 1: you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. But
Speaker 1: so he had to essentially do what he had to
Speaker 1: do for years and years and years in order to
Speaker 1: make it. And now you know, he's got all of
Speaker 1: his stuff in order, which is really great, and you
Speaker 1: know it's been able to do that, but ultimately, like
Speaker 1: he had to do what he had to do, even
Speaker 1: being in this country since he was twelve years old, he.
Speaker 4: Still had to do what he had to do.
Speaker 1: And so we were at a period where it just
Speaker 1: got really really really like hoof nigga shit, like this.
Speaker 4: Is well child was coming into this world on top
Speaker 4: of that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's how I ended up going back to
Speaker 1: work at six weeks When Noah was six weeks old,
Speaker 1: I'm bartending and lactating behind a bar.
Speaker 4: Literally, I'd be on the train. I'd be on the
Speaker 4: A train or the C train home, and my titties
Speaker 4: would be they.
Speaker 1: Would imagine, you know, well anyway imagine if somebody took
Speaker 1: like like two bricks and put them in each of
Speaker 1: your nut sacks, or you're in your nut set with
Speaker 1: each of your nuts. Imagine if somebody just tied like
Speaker 1: a brick to your nuts and they just were heavy,
Speaker 1: your titties rock up, like literally when you're filled. They
Speaker 1: fill with milk, they turn into rocks. They're hard and
Speaker 1: they hurt and they're heavy. And I would be on
Speaker 1: and so I would take my pump to work and
Speaker 1: I told my manager at the time, I was like, yo,
Speaker 1: I need to go into the I need to go
Speaker 1: into the locker room and pump like every so often,
Speaker 1: you know, And he was like, okay, but that never
Speaker 1: worked in the middle of a bartending at a jazz
Speaker 1: club that is never ending, and so uh so, then
Speaker 1: I would be on the A or the sea train,
Speaker 1: and I do wear black to work, and my whole
Speaker 1: shirt will be.
Speaker 4: Soaked with titty milk. Whole thing, ohld thing soak with
Speaker 4: titty milk.
Speaker 1: But thank god my shirt was black, and my titties
Speaker 1: would be in a midst pain and I'll be on
Speaker 1: the trade three.
Speaker 4: O'clock in the morning with just heavy wet titties. I
Speaker 4: felt like thea i'd be working.
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
Speaker 4: So just so you know, I canna laugh about it
Speaker 4: now or whatever.
Speaker 1: But that was a hard time, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like it was already, it was hard in the ending
Speaker 1: of my pregnancy. It was hard from first, you know,
Speaker 1: because we're trying to we're just trying to scrape it
Speaker 1: and make it.
Speaker 4: And then we have a new baby and I gotta
Speaker 4: eat and shout out to.
Speaker 1: My mother for coming here for three weeks and like
Speaker 1: going to Costco and cooking shit and freezing shit and
Speaker 1: bringing you know, making me tuna and oatmeal and just
Speaker 1: you know, taking care of me or whatever.
Speaker 4: But which is privilege. Again, that's more privilege. But it
Speaker 4: was hard.
Speaker 1: It was It was a it was a rough time
Speaker 1: for a second. That was probably one of the roughest
Speaker 1: times thus far that I've had.
Speaker 4: Mm mm hmm. And women should never have to fucking
Speaker 4: or should mothers should never.
Speaker 8: Have to.
Speaker 1: Go back to work six weeks at six weeks when
Speaker 1: they're baby six weeks old. And I say that for
Speaker 1: any mother I say that for uh birth mothers. I
Speaker 1: say that for adoptive, adoptive mothers, trans mothers, mothers in general,
Speaker 1: should never have to go back to work when their
Speaker 1: babies are six weeks old, because that is a time
Speaker 1: when you should be bonding with your baby. There's a
Speaker 1: time when you should be y'all need to be getting
Speaker 1: to know each other and they need to be able
Speaker 1: to feel that. You should have rest and like just
Speaker 1: be able to really connect with your family and whatever
Speaker 1: family you choose. And this country don't don't make don't
Speaker 1: make that easy, not at all.
Speaker 2: It's like these other countries be like a whole year
Speaker 2: off both you know there's patern you know paternity leave,
Speaker 2: and you know they get it for six months and women.
Speaker 3: Don't have to come back for a year. And all
Speaker 3: of a sudden, it's like.
Speaker 2: You have the option to work up until the day
Speaker 2: you know you give birth or three months before you
Speaker 2: give birth.
Speaker 3: There's just like what the fact I.
Speaker 4: Was at a I was doing a catering.
Speaker 1: When I was like eight months pregnant, and I was
Speaker 1: at this rich ass white woman's house.
Speaker 4: Who lived in a building where Mick Jagger lived.
Speaker 1: I think Mick Jagger lived right above her, and Nicole
Speaker 1: ca or somebody live right below her, something like that.
Speaker 1: But it was definitely mcjack and I think it was
Speaker 1: Nicole Kidman. It was another celebrity. So that shows you
Speaker 1: how wealthy she was. Nigga, These niggas were so wealthy.
Speaker 1: You drive, so it was a building on the west
Speaker 1: side like maybe like not, yeah, it was on the
Speaker 1: west side, but it was lower like maybe eleventh, twelfth,
Speaker 1: something like that.
Speaker 4: And so you drive.
Speaker 1: When they drive their cars into their garage, they drive
Speaker 1: it into it's one garage and the elevator takes their
Speaker 1: car to their designated space.
Speaker 7: Wow.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like it's one of those.
Speaker 1: And then you walk into the apartment and the apartment
Speaker 1: is a two floor house with a garage and everything
Speaker 1: in a building. So I'm doing this this event there
Speaker 1: catering for this event, and she the ladies, this British
Speaker 1: Republican bitch, and she's like, she tells one of my
Speaker 1: friends at the catering.
Speaker 4: She she'd be well, well she should be working. Is
Speaker 4: that even she should be working? I don't think it's
Speaker 4: a good idea to have.
Speaker 1: A pregnant and my friend goes, you need to ask
Speaker 1: yourself why an eight month pregnant woman has to work
Speaker 1: in this country before you start.
Speaker 4: Spurning off at the mouth.
Speaker 1: And my homegirls white, which I appreciate. She's one of
Speaker 1: white women that speaks up. She's like, no, because it's
Speaker 1: my job. And she was like, you need to ask
Speaker 1: yourself that she's like and maybe check.
Speaker 4: Your privilege and left that lady's speechless.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that the last few months of my of
Speaker 1: my of my pregnancy, and the first few months of Noah's.
Speaker 4: Noah's after Noah was here, it was just it was rough, nigga.
Speaker 4: It was rough.
Speaker 9: About uh.
Speaker 3: When I first moved to Brooklyn, that was the really rough.
Speaker 2: Like I said, I wasn't working and then I called
Speaker 2: myself trying to date somebody at the time, and it
Speaker 2: was just like, nigga, I only only had like twenty
Speaker 2: dollars a week to my name, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: So it was it was like it was really rough,
Speaker 2: and so I put myself in situations where I, you know,
Speaker 2: postured myself to be different than what I was or whatever,
Speaker 2: because a nigga was broke, trusted to believe. But somehow
Speaker 2: I made it work like I've always had, Like like
Speaker 2: when I was a kid, like my mother had got
Speaker 2: laid off so I couldn't go to prom because we
Speaker 2: didn't have the money for it, so.
Speaker 3: Or like in college, you know, I was a broke
Speaker 3: college shooter. Thank god for Domino's five to five to
Speaker 3: five deal because she has kept you know, she kept
Speaker 3: me fed for a solid year and a half.
Speaker 4: Oh, nigga, I ate more spaghetti in college than I
Speaker 4: ate known as nigga, like spaghetti night at my crab.
Speaker 3: Listen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like I just you know, I've always knew how to,
Speaker 2: Like I never really had a lot of money, so
Speaker 2: I've always kind of figured out a way to like
Speaker 2: navigate and move. But like, yeah, definitely, when I first
Speaker 2: moved to Brooklyn, it was a rough and like that's
Speaker 2: when we both were on food stamps at the time.
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, no, yes, but that was you know
Speaker 1: what that was a privileged poor there was that was
Speaker 1: privilege poor.
Speaker 4: What we did at that period of time. We was
Speaker 4: in our twenties. We got food stamps.
Speaker 1: We was having shrimp and grits brunches on Wednesdays and watching.
Speaker 4: Polly like we was just we was just like that
Speaker 4: was privileged poor. But like I have been poor poor,
Speaker 4: You've been poor, Yeah, I've been privileged poor. That was
Speaker 4: privilege poor.
Speaker 1: You must know the difference we had cell phone, nigga,
Speaker 1: we could have gone and got jobs.
Speaker 4: Well we're gonna ride this way for a while, nigger.
Speaker 1: But I have been actually broke before, like actually broke
Speaker 1: in my life, and I know there are people who
Speaker 1: with a worse circumstances. These people had to living their.
Speaker 3: Cars and and oh absolutely I had to work with them.
Speaker 2: You know, people who are homeless living on the train
Speaker 2: for twenty years, you know, but you know, good times.
Speaker 3: And we lucky we got them.
Speaker 4: That is a depressing asshow yeah, which is why we
Speaker 4: should end on the snow.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: When we're in Vegas, all he has a commercial for
Speaker 2: Medicaid or Medicare or the one that has the red,
Speaker 2: white and blue card and like he's in front of
Speaker 2: a green screen, but it's like like a zoom type
Speaker 2: of situation, so it's like the backdrop of like a
Speaker 2: wall of like a nice white suburban home. So like
Speaker 2: in the thing, it has like all this good times
Speaker 2: memorabilia to like ensure that you know, this is why
Speaker 2: he's important, because in another commercial, the white lady don't
Speaker 2: have it. It's the same background, it's just different, like
Speaker 2: they didn't changed it up to like a pot or
Speaker 2: a plant.
Speaker 4: That was in his writer you must put all the
Speaker 4: good times merch in.
Speaker 3: The background exactly.
