Red Pill Rakim
25 Plays1 month ago
Dj opens the pod with a proclamation that we are getting back to the 12-minute pod intros. Dj comes up with a new moniker for the duo. Peep the artwork. Being on YT has made Dj a little more self-conscious and he's noticing things about himself that he hasn't before. We talk about men and the struggle in the health and beaty section of shopping. Dj is too toxic to have a publicly known skin care routine. Please release men from the shackles of the 7 in 1 body washes. Brorilla is back at it again but this time she thirst trappin out here. Who is her demographic? Is 9-5 culture dying more now than it did during the pandemic? Who is at fault? AI or entrepreneurship? Terminator taught us nothing because AI and automation is the new wave. Dj has a lot of boomer beliefs, and they definitely clash with modern day belief system. Is monogamy dead? Wop sends a clip a we break down the thoughts, Dj believes the clip is a good message just the wrong messenger. Wait until its revealed who the messenger is.

TWIYpod
But we're getting back to the 10-minute intros. All right? Those are coming back. That's the one thing I miss about podding more than anything else. More than more than having 17 co-hosts, I missed 12-minute intros on the pod.

Wop
One of your corners.
00:02:06
TWIYpod
Yeah, it's one of them. It's one of them Jones. um So I like it. I noticed a few things about myself that I did not know before the YouTube drop. Also more pod merch just because I'm not an adult yet.
00:02:22
TWIYpod
um I noticed like my head is not symmetrical.
00:02:28
TWIYpod
Like I know I got bad posture, right? You know, I got scoliosis. I got bad posture. But my head is not symmetrical. Like I'm editing the videos. I'm watching the videos. I'm like, why my glass is sitting like that? Like why my glasses is like sitting like somebody slapped me.
00:02:46
TWIYpod
And I realized like, yo, bro, I don't even look at my face.
00:02:51
TWIYpod
Like, I don't look at my face. Yeah, I

TWIYpod
cleaned it up. I'm clean this week. Last week, nigga said I look dusty. It's like, yo, man, that nigga Dizzle look dusty, man. you Hey, you can't come to YouTube dusty, Dizzle. So I cleaned it up. I cleaned up that beard. I'm getting back to myself.
00:03:09
TWIYpod
But my face is not symmetrical. And then I'm looking in the mirror so much. I said to myself,
00:03:19
TWIYpod
Niggas is going to ask me about my my skincare routine.
00:03:28
TWIYpod
No, serious. Like, you when you're in the mirror a lot.
00:03:35
TWIYpod
Wow. But has a nigga ever asked you about your skincare routine? Or a woman. Has a person ever asked you about your skincare routine?
00:03:44
Wop
I get compliments on my skincare all day. Like the females be asking me like, what you what you be using? You got real pretty skin. And I get that shit a lot. I'm not no bullshit.
00:03:57
Wop
like But I really just use a turmeric soap for the most part. The little lemon shit. And yeah, ah if I was even, you know, less toxic with my lifestyle, a skin it might be even more, you know?
00:04:15
TWIYpod
ah
00:04:15
Wop
You know? Nah, I'm talking about like,
00:04:18
TWIYpod
and If you were nicer to women, you might have even better skin. That's a cheat code.
00:04:24
Wop
um on to fight like No, I'm talking about leaving like the liquor, you know, like shit, that's just not good for, you know, like I would say like definitely a
00:04:29
TWIYpod
Mmm.
00:04:38
Wop
eating better, things of that nature. Like all that shit do like affect your skincare. So like for me, I just think always like had like a good skincare routine when I was shorty, I used to,
00:04:51
Wop
be a proactive little nigga, you know what I'm saying? And clear as hell, all that shit. I was into all that shit.
00:04:56
TWIYpod
Proactive? He was an infomercial boy?
00:04:58
Wop
Man, I just, I think i was
00:05:03
TWIYpod
um' not listen, every week I learn more and more about my co-hosts, y'all. Listen, my nigga was a proactive. He an infomercial gang.
00:05:10
Wop
hey man i used to think I was a pretty boy. No bullshit. I used to live in the mirror, bro. Like, no bullshit. Like, it, it, It is what it is, but I do think skincare is like, you know, obviously, according to some degree, everybody ain't gonna have the the physical features or whatnot. But the the one thing you can do is keep a decent skincare, you know what I'm saying? so
00:05:37
TWIYpod
That's the craziest shit. I was expecting this conversation to go totally different because I immediately got toxic. When I start thinking about like having a skincare routine and discussing that with other men, my immediate thought was, I better not even see too many wash rags in a nigga bathroom. If I come to your crib and it's four wash rags in your crib and it's just you, I'm going to be like, you had company?
00:06:06
Wop
Type shit.
00:06:07
TWIYpod
Like, let me find out you're using a different wash rag for your body or your face. Let me find out you're not using this Irish Spring 7-in-1 body wash to just take care of your whole life.
00:06:19
Wop
Please stay away from that type shit. That's seven and one eight and ones. That shit is not good for you.
00:06:26
TWIYpod
Nah, it can't be good for you if you can clean your carburetor, your asshole, and wash your face with It can't. That's not a good body wash, bro.
00:06:38
TWIYpod
Like, men, we have to get better. Now, I will say,

00:13:54
TWIYpod
Cause it's always like some shit that's bigger than it needs to be. And then it's like, they'll let you know, like they can't stop holding it. Just like niggas, for real, but when I'm around other niggas, I don't need to hold myself.
00:14:12

00:15:23
Wop
the prank shit that nigga's doing. like like The shit she doing is just, it's like it's typical, don't get me wrong, like it's definitely typical.
00:15:34
Wop
It's definitely typical in this area. It's not like something new. We've we've seen the quote unquote, plenty of family members get online trying to expose a famous family member for for not looking out.
00:15:38
TWIYpod
Thank you.
00:15:47
Wop
And we've seen that, but it's just again, like what they not willing to do for content. And I get it.

00:16:28
TWIYpod

00:16:35

00:16:49
Wop
Like this not a fucking game. it might It might be funny, but what you get from me is real shit. So no, don't come playing. No, I just work 12 hours. Nigga, don't come playing with me.
00:17:00
Wop
I'm dead ass.
00:17:01
TWIYpod
tom time time and place yeah time and place for me in place i'm i'm i'm good with a prank and unless you took it too far unless you took it too far uh because and then once you get me there now i'm there and it's gonna take me some time like i'm not signing that consent form so that you can publish this prank like i'm
00:17:11
Wop
but the
00:17:26
TWIYpod
No, bro, i'm hot I'm a little hot right now. You know, you got me a little hot. But there some pranks i'm I'm good with. But I think i think people are going to get their 15 minutes worth. I think people are going to get their 15 minutes worth of fame.
00:17:41
TWIYpod
And then they'll try and turn that into something else or just maximize how much shit you can get. Because you only got 15 minutes. We're not going to be talking about Bro-Rilla in April.
00:17:53
TWIYpod
in may We're not going to be talking about Shorty. By the time it gets warm outside for real, nobody's going to be talking about Shorty. I will give her a little bit of a of an enhancement because spring break events are going to happen and we might have a couple Borilla sightings.
00:18:10
TWIYpod
And then there might be a reconciliation with her and Glorilla where you see them both in the same room. But right when that happens will probably be the end of the 15 minutes. Like right after you reconcile with Glorilla, you'll get another three minutes out of that. And then we'll never see Shorty again for So make the most of it. Go to the 20 V one, go fucking sit down with Vlad or fucking Charleston white, you know, do whatever it is that you need to do to maximize your 15 minutes of fame.
00:18:44
TWIYpod
Cause it ain't no jobs out here. i mean, shorty worked for FedEx. That was a great job. Uh, but fuck that up.
00:18:54
Wop

Don't put little in front of because that's going to make me mad. That's going to make me now going to be a different me.
00:22:23
Wop
No, no bullshit.
00:22:25
TWIYpod
That's looking a gift horse in the mouth. I told you all about that gift horse bullshit. That's looking a gift horse in the mouth.
00:22:35
TWIYpod
But I will say, i will say, i think nine to five culture is dying more now than it was during the pandemic.
00:22:50
Wop
is
00:22:50
TWIYpod
Nine to five culture dying because companies is laying niggas off.
00:22:57
TWIYpod
UPS laid off 40,000 niggas last year, 34,000 niggas the year before that. They just went on strike to get more money.
00:23:06
Wop
Amazon laying motherfuckers off left and right.
00:23:09
TWIYpod
Amazon laying niggas off left and right. Niggas is getting laid off. Automation is taking jobs. Like you can't even. i used to say no matter what. The world's going to need a nigga to lift a box.
00:23:22
TWIYpod
Forever.
00:23:25
TWIYpod
To lift a box. And take that box from over here. To over there. The world's always going to need a nigga to lift a box. And I was wrong. them um Them dock workers.
00:23:38
TWIYpod
When they went on strike, a big point of their strike was to stop automation or to slow automation down so that they don't fully work themselves out of their jobs. I think they did a good thing, but I still think that some of them niggas will not be working with the docs in a couple years because of automation.
00:24:01
Wop
Mm-hmm.
00:24:01
TWIYpod
I just think nine to five culture is dead. And it's not because everybody wants to be an entrepreneur. It's because companies are saying we can cut 20% of the workforce.
00:24:16
TWIYpod
We'll be okay. Hey, guess what? We're making, we cut 20% of the workforce. We're making more money than we ever made ever. But the 80% that you kept is working their ass off. They tired. They work, they work to the bone.
00:24:31
TWIYpod
But it don't matter because the job's getting done and they're not seeing any negative results from cutting staff.
00:24:38
Wop
is It's a win-win. No bullshit. I'm at the job the other day. Now we one the one buildings that like, we done went fully kind of robotic, right? On the dock.
00:24:55
Wop
Power outage. And you know, WAP gets scared because you know, for war going on.
00:25:04
TWIYpod
Oh, I thought you were scared of the dark. I thought you were scared of the dark.
00:25:06
Wop
ah you
00:25:10
TWIYpod
My man said, the power out is, you know why getting scared? Like, got nightlight in that bitch?
00:25:18
Wop
Nah, I get the panic because you know, I'm in one of these Fortune 500, come right for the same day, but I'm working with these Fortune 500s, man, that you feel YouTube purposes, you know?
00:25:31
Wop
But yeah, again, it's the power outage. I'm thinking like, man, Man, what the fuck going on? We at war with motherfuckers and shit. Like, is it over with for us? Like, what's going on?
00:25:46
Wop
Tell you one thing, though. Everything went out. Guess what kept working? We got them robots.
00:25:53
TWIYpod
Hmm. It's battery powered, solar powered.
Automation's Impact on the Workforce: A New Skillset Needed?
00:25:58
Wop
My nigga.
00:25:58
TWIYpod
Back up, Jenny.
00:25:59
Wop
Exactly.
00:26:00
TWIYpod
Ah.
00:26:01
Wop
see See? Now, eventually, if the power don't come back on, they gonna die. Right? But for the moment... But that's still a sound to me right there. It just told me then.
00:26:13
Wop
They're showing you in the dark, nigga. When you niggas decided to start working.
00:26:17
TWIYpod
and no Hey, you niggas can't work in the dark. Guess what?
00:26:21
Wop
Guess who can't?
00:26:21
TWIYpod
Termin... The T2000 can.
00:26:22
Wop
Guess who can't?
00:26:25
TWIYpod
The T... And this is that's the shit that pissed me off the most, Wop. These niggas is running to automation. I like my little chat GPT, too. But niggas is running to automation like we didn't see Terminator.
00:26:39
TWIYpod
We seen Terminator, bro. All the Terminators, too. We seen the Matrix. seen the Matrix. Niggas is birthing the same shit that they made movies about saying that was going to kill us and make us live underground.
00:26:55
Wop
Nah.
00:26:55
TWIYpod
And niggas was going to take over and and so enslave humanity. And niggas said, yo, you know would be a great idea? Some robots that can lift boxes and move this factory in the dark.
00:27:12
TWIYpod
So we don't lose production. Greed is the reason why niggas don't want to work nine to fives no more. i used to be a little bit on the other side of the fence because I'm a boomer at heart.
00:27:25
TWIYpod
In my heart, I'm a boomer. You go to work, you do the job, you get recognized for doing the job, and that's how you get a promotion. You don't politic. You don't talk brag about your what you've done because the work speaks for itself. You know, I'm one of those old school niggas for real.
00:27:43
Wop
Hard work still pays off. We ain't going to say it don't. It definitely still do.
00:27:47
TWIYpod
I'm not going to say it don't, but I will say it only pays off as much as you can spread the word about it. That's what I've learned in corporate.
00:27:59
TWIYpod
Because I did a whole lot of hard work and I got with a leader who said, yeah, you did some cool shit, man, but ah you it's not cool enough. or Or the right people don't know that you did this cool shit.
00:28:13
TWIYpod
So when the right people came to town, I had a little elevator speech, you know, little 30 second speech of, hey, this is my name. This is what I'm involved in. This is what I'm about. And I hope we can collaborate our efforts one day to make the company better. Oh, smoked it.
00:28:29
Wop
but
00:28:30
TWIYpod
Smoked a fucking Stacey Adams. Why I had the Stacey's. They had whatever white people shoes we wear. I did that shit a couple of times and boom, I started getting recognized for shit.
00:28:41
TWIYpod
So you do gotta have the mouthpiece behind it, but you you gotta sell.
00:28:46
Wop
that was Gotta sell it for sure.
00:28:49
TWIYpod
And I just, I always felt like the work should sell itself, but I got old parents and my parents' parents was old and they never worked corporate. So that understanding was was aged very bad. So now today,
00:29:06
TWIYpod
The way I'm looking at it, I can't even tell my kids that manual labor is never going to go out of style. Go get a CDL. that We always going to need somebody to drive a truck.
00:29:18
TWIYpod
Probably not, bro.
00:29:20
Wop
wait till they figure out how to get these trucks across this bitch without a drive in
00:29:24
TWIYpod
They working on it.
00:29:24
Wop
Cause all, all this shit is, is lawsuit based, right? Like these, a lot of companies, as we know, go out of business for lawsuits.
00:29:35
Wop
Lawsuits kill the business. Ultimately the companies fold because of whatever. If they can, if certain companies could avoid lawsuits,
00:29:48
Wop
Because we know, and it's fucked up. It is some people that get jobs just to potentially sue these jobs. like Like, I've seen it. I've seen a motherfucker. Watch this. Three months. HR harassment case. ah ah Anything. Like, I've seen it.
00:30:06
TWIYpod
That was Charleston White before he became who he is today. He made plenty of videos talking about he would go work at a construction site. Either he would get hurt or he would work in a blue collar environment.
00:30:20
TWIYpod
And you know, blue collar environment is totally different than corporate. People talk reckless in blue collar environments.
00:30:27
Wop
No facts.
00:30:27
TWIYpod
Oh, yeah, I was I was fucking my ass. and I was fucking my wife in the ass the other night and blah, bla blah, blah. And they would talk like that around him and he would go tell somebody, don't feel comfortable with bro talking like that around me.
00:30:40
Wop
Simple.
00:30:42
TWIYpod
And then the next day, bro, would be like, oh, I got to watch what I say because some people don't like what I be saying. Retaliation lawsuit. They was giving this nigga 30K just to not come back. They was giving this nigga easy, quick, settled out of court, 30K, 40K lawsuits. And he was making a lifestyle off of this. Oh, you don't want to hire me because I sued the last contractor I worked for?
00:31:07
TWIYpod
Lawsuit, 30K.
00:31:08
Wop
Need that.
00:31:08
TWIYpod
Like when he was on, when he was making videos talking about that, I was like, damn, that's fucking genius.
00:31:19
TWIYpod
I don't agree with it, but that's like, because niggas that work like that to just get over on the system, you're you're working so hard to get over on the system, it would just be easier for you to just go to fucking work and do the job, bro.
00:31:34
TWIYpod
But if you can go cash out on three lawsuits a year and you got a year's salary, what the fuck? Hey, that ain't even three months of work right there. Now you got nine months to parlay, lay up, chill in the crib.
00:31:48
Wop
You done got a year's pay off of two, three months of nothing. Like that's deep. Like ain't gonna lie. Like is it's it's people like that, but it's it's part of, I think just technology catching up and it's not like you not gonna be able to have a job. What it's gonna be is, it's like, it's gonna be harder for you to do certain jobs. They gonna have certain requirements.
00:32:15
Wop
you can you Can you operate this robot if something was to go down?
00:32:18
TWIYpod
Yeah.
00:32:20
Wop
Because that's what you really have to have skills in, operating the robots.
00:32:21
TWIYpod
That's the...
00:32:24
Wop
Can you?
00:32:25
TWIYpod
That's the future.
00:32:25
Wop
Yeah, that's the future.
00:32:26
TWIYpod
Hey, nigga, can you fix the robot? Like, hey, we don't need you to do the job anymore. We just need you to fix the robots if the robots break down.
00:32:35
Wop
Facts. So...
00:32:37
TWIYpod
Can you fix Terminator, bro?
00:32:40
Wop
fix him like that's that's it you can you get him back to his charging destination because he having a malfunction over here and like that's going to be the reality for most people and the thing about it is that it's it's a huge jump because a lot of people like you said are from the baby boomer era where you've been taught to work with your hands and get shit done with hands and Now it's, and i and I see it
Navigating Career Growth: Tips and Anecdotes
00:33:07
Wop
a lot of times in my job. Like a lot of people don't want to do the job that I do because it requires them to stay in contact with managers.
00:33:17
Wop
Motherfuckers don't want to be doing that type of shit. Like where you constantly talking to supervisors and lot of them want to come to work and chill and be out the way.
00:33:27
Wop
So it's one of those situations, right? Like where you, you have to want to step up in this era. Like they they also, they're forcing, you can't just be a guy that that do the hard work no more. Like you gotta be like really initiative in these workforces, like putting yourself out there talking and communicating, cause it's gonna become that that hard work shit.
00:33:53
Wop
it It paid off and it still does again, but it's more so like,
00:34:00
Wop
It only matters when you like, again, like applying it like in in a different manner where you can separate yourself because it's a lot of hard workers at jobs, but it's the one that that that's innovating and has that personality that seems to get a little bit further than you. That's just what it be.
00:34:20
TWIYpod
Hard work is, don't i want to say it's fake. I'll say it's overrated. Because usually the people that you're trying to show that you're a hardworking person to never did your job.
00:34:37
Wop
Exactly.
00:34:39
TWIYpod
So they don't really know if you're hardworking or not. but But Anthony over here is selling that he's a hard worker. And you in the stats show that you can work circles around Anthony's ass.
00:34:54
TWIYpod
But Anthony playing golf with these niggas on the weekend, he's selling them on his personality. And when you when you're thinking about working with somebody, it's not that I just want to work with the hardest fucking worker.
00:35:09
TWIYpod
I want to work with somebody that I don't mind being around. I want to work with somebody that's not going to make too many waves.
00:35:17
Wop
I don't feel uncomfortable with, you know what I'm saying? Like you like the conversation finna get still.
00:35:20
TWIYpod
Facts.
00:35:24
Wop
I'm just looking at you you, looking at me, weird shit. Like I want a motherfucker, like it's just what it is. it's Is it fair? Not necessarily, right? Like, like yeah, the the best worker should be making the most money, like right?
00:35:34
TWIYpod
No, not really.
00:35:38
Wop
Like it will be the most the most respected worker, right?
00:35:39
TWIYpod
Oh, God.
00:35:41
Wop
The motherfucker that's working the hardest. And it's a motherfucker at my job like that right now. Right? He's the MVP, and I think most managers and super supervisors and shit like that know.
00:35:54
Wop
But at the at the same time, like to the workforce, the nigga's invisible. Nobody knows.
00:36:01
TWIYpod
well
00:36:01
Wop
Nobody sees him.
00:36:02
TWIYpod
Yeah. That nigga, when you go to work and and and it's the new people show up and they sit all the new people with that one nigga, I always be asking, like, how come he not a boss?
00:36:02
Wop
Right?
00:36:14
TWIYpod
If he's so good, if he's good enough to train us, how come he ain't the boss?
00:36:22
Wop
so Well,
00:36:23
TWIYpod
Oh, it's because he doesn't have aspirations to be a leader. No, that's not it, Tom. that's That's not it, Tom.
00:36:31
Wop
what well i do I mean, I think certain jobs, if you are asked to train, I think you are considered extension of leadership, right? Like you might not be, ah ah well, corporate rise.
00:36:42
TWIYpod
Not corporate, at least. Yeah, corporate. Corporate, no. You're not an extension of leadership. You're the guy that you're the front-facing employee. You're the you're the you're the Milli Vanilles.
00:36:55
TWIYpod
and And the company is the really the niggas singing in the background. But you're going to be the nigga with the braids out skipping on stage. Girl, you know it's true.
00:37:04
Wop
ah Oh, my life. No, I feel what you said. I just think, again, like, as far as the the the training aspect of it, that you would think, again, like, certain, deep depending on certain states, I know, like, in Illinois, like, if you are, like,
00:37:25
Wop
got different quality qualifications for our construction. But we, as far as we classify as the same trade though, right? We might be, me and you, we could be classified as the same trade, a laborer, but you got welding and other things on your background, like in certifications, you can go to a a company and say, hey, I know the rate, the the union rate is 30 what, whatever, an hour.
00:37:53
Wop
but because I got these qualifications and I've been a foreman before, I think I should get a dollar more than everybody else, regardless what's going on here. Like you have them type of situations and depending on what type of worker you is and how regarded you is and more than likely how construction is, somebody done, know what I'm saying?
00:38:16
Wop
and Then sent you over here. So you you might be, you have a name for yourself more than likely already. So people,
00:38:22
TWIYpod
So you might get it off the rep.
00:38:23
Wop
Off the rip.
00:38:25
TWIYpod
Okay. Oh, like that. Oh, shit. speak this
00:38:30
TWIYpod
Speaking of unqu being people being in unqualified places. Yo, I'm out today and I seen the, this is how I know we were in a recession. This is a recession indicator for sure.
00:38:44
TWIYpod
I seen the plug door dashing.
00:38:47
Wop
Never.
00:38:48
TWIYpod
Seen the plug door dashing with his wife in the car.
00:38:54
TWIYpod
Pulled up to the spot. He get out his car. He yelling at her, yo, just circle around the block. By the time you come back around the block, I'm going to be done. And you can come pick me up.
00:39:07
TWIYpod
Don't park. It's going to cost to park. And I'm laughing and I'm just like, are you good gang? And he's like, yo man, what's up? We dab. I'm like, oh shit, you dashing? He was just like, yeah. I was like, oh y'all one of those dashing couples? Like you dashing as a couple? Like i've really I really like seeing content like that. He was like, nah, that bitch be cheating. So I can't leave her at the crib by herself. Yeah.
00:39:33
Wop
Welp. Welp.
00:39:34
TWIYpod
ah
00:39:38
TWIYpod
And I'm confused. i what After I walked away from it, I'm like, well, damn, he was the plug. Like he had, I used to be at his crib, but he used to, I mean, he did some sloppy work. You know, people was coming to his crib or whatever, but you will be over there for 30 minutes and you would see 10, 12 people just pop up, pop up and get whatever they need going about their business.
00:40:05
Wop
Nah, for sure.
00:40:05
TWIYpod
And I'm like, God damn, this nigga's dashing? Like, are niggas too broke to buy drugs?
00:40:12
Wop
It's everywhere now. Like, especially the weed, weed everywhere bro. Especially if you live in a weed legalization state. It's everywhere.
00:40:23
Wop
and and And it's safer for people that's really not street.
00:40:23
TWIYpod
Man.
00:40:29
Wop
Even if you don't.
00:40:29
TWIYpod
to To go to the store. To go to get your card.
00:40:32
Wop
It's just safer.
00:40:33
TWIYpod
Go go get your medical card.
00:40:33
Wop
Yeah.
00:40:35
TWIYpod
Go to the store. But you
Economical Struggles and Adaptations in Society
00:40:37
TWIYpod
know what? I'm only going to the store because I hit you. You said you left the crib and you was down the street and it's been two hours.
00:40:48
TWIYpod
That's the only reason why I'm going to the store. And a lot of weed men, they're they're not that bad anymore, but they're not prompt either. They're not prompt or on time.
00:40:58
Wop
They never been that though. So that's always been kind of expected because, you know, like being a former, you know what saying? Weed man, myself, you know, shit happens. Like you might've called me And you might be 20 minutes away, but then on in process to getting to you, somebody else called.
00:41:18
Wop
It's smarter for me to go that catch that person that's closer than to go all the way to you, even though you called first, I get it. You go first. and
00:41:27
TWIYpod
You treat my bud. You treat my bud delivery like DoorDash.
00:41:31
Wop
I got to though.
00:41:33
TWIYpod
Nah, because I ordered a submarine sandwich on Saturday or Sunday. I ordered a submarine sandwich. And Shorty had three orders to pick up before she came to my fucking crib.
00:41:45
Wop
Yeah, but I'm...
00:41:45
TWIYpod
So I'm waiting for an hour, watching Shorty drive all over the city, picking up other people's food, dropping off other people's food.
00:41:46
Wop
three
00:41:55
TWIYpod
And my food is in her vehicle.
00:41:59
Wop
Well, this is this is what I'm going to say.
00:42:00
TWIYpod
Food ain't weed. So I get like weed. Can you, yeah, you gotta make a stop on the way through, have some clear communication, but at the same time, you can only do that. But so many times before a customer, like before I stopped doing it, I would just call two or three niggas at one time and then just say in my head, whoever get her first getting a break.
00:42:22
Wop
Yeah, and that's cool too. But at the same time, like, I just think, like, it always been, always, even when I was just a consumer, before I became movie man, when I was just a consumer, like, just a nigga that, I always understood, like,
00:42:38
Wop
them variables of it. Like, even before I became that, like, and then I i just knew what when I became, we you man like, yeah, like, yeah, them variables is real. Like, it just be shit be happening. You a person too.
00:42:52
Wop
It ain't, it ain't like having a trap where you just always there. You got the trap. The trap always open. You know what I'm saying? It ain't, motherfucker can't expect to, know I'm saying, come through that and you not be there unless you done told motherfuckers you not there.
00:43:08
Wop
But it's a different way you gotta fix it.
00:43:09
TWIYpod
but but don't But don't tell me you down the street and you in the crib playing 2K in the middle of the third quarter.
00:43:16
Wop
But niggas gonna do that too. Now that's bad.
00:43:18
TWIYpod
you You can tell me you in the middle of the third quarter and I'll make the best decision on how to move going forward.
00:43:18
Wop
it
00:43:25
TWIYpod
I might even hit you and be like, I'm on my way. I got next game. I got a winner.
00:43:29
Wop
Right.
00:43:30
TWIYpod
I'm coming through. I got a winner. Who wants smoke?
00:43:33
Wop
No, you could do that, but... Now that's, like I said, that's something different. Like to me, that's a motherfucker that really ain't trying to get money or they too big. And, or you buying something so small to them.
00:43:45
Wop
Cause that's another thing that be happening, right? Like, is i've I've been that to that point too, where it's like, man, I ain't going out for that.
00:43:54
TWIYpod
Oh, nigga hits you for a gram?
00:43:56
Wop
yeah Like, you know what I mean?
00:43:57
TWIYpod
Nigga... And not only do he want the Trey Five, but he want to borrow it.
00:44:07
Wop
I know what you are.
00:44:09
TWIYpod
He want to borrow it. It's Tuesday. He want to borrow the Trey Five until Friday. Now, I've never done this before, and I've always gotten praise for that, for always...
00:44:23
TWIYpod
Like, I'm ah ask you, like, yo, what's the what's the lowest amount that you're not coming out the crib for? Because I won't even hit you. if If you don't come out the crib for nothing less than 14, I'm always, um you're my 14 man.
00:44:35
Wop
and know what you are
00:44:36
TWIYpod
Yeah, you're my 14 guy. And if I ain't got 14, I'm never hitting you. And I'm never hitting you to loan something. Because as soon as I feel like I got to borrow the bud, I think I need 28-day rehabilitation center.
00:44:52
Wop
I do not co-sign it. um I've definitely borrowed the book. before
00:44:58
TWIYpod
No, WAP.
00:44:59
Wop

00:45:54
Wop
Man, listen, I've never actively been to Caprini Greens, like never.
00:45:55
TWIYpod
Please come to the pod.
00:45:59
Wop
um I had family that stayed there, but I've never, the the the irony of that shit is I actually was part of the project that tore down Caprini Greens.
00:46:10
Wop
I think I said that before on the pod, but like for the new YouTube listeners, you know? Yeah, like I think I was a part of, I know I was a part of that project. I just never been there, but i I've had family that stayed there, but again,
00:46:23
Wop
is It's like I just always been known as a nigga that's been solid. My my word was bond, like no matter what. I see it.
00:46:36
Wop
is It's always been that. So that's why I'm saying like, yeah, I've i've been in a jam. I'm like, know what I'm saying? on some real nigga shit. Probably got out of jail, and bonded, I'm fucked up. I'll have my homie and he gonna take care of me type shit. Cause don't want nothing for free.
00:46:51
Wop

00:47:03
TWIYpod
Never, never, never.
00:47:05
Wop
Yeah, yeah.
00:47:06
TWIYpod
Only, only tell them getting some for free. Is that a cookout? Uh, but back, back to my man and door dashing with his wife. Cause cause she cheated. I thought that was hilarious. I think the people with the shared Facebook page is hilarious because somebody cheated. So now you got a shared Facebook page.
00:47:27
Wop
Social media is the reason why he doing this.
00:47:27
TWIYpod
Um,
00:47:30
Wop
Like Kanye said, no, like like for real, like Kanye said, gang, IG got your bitch.
00:47:31
TWIYpod
no,
00:47:36
Wop
I promise you.
00:47:37
TWIYpod
Well, I think Shorty cheated in a very short period of time. That's why he can't trust her. Like, I think she got sucked caught sucking dick. Like, he went to the gas station to get some woods, and he come home, and she just had dick in her mouth.
00:47:51
TWIYpod
Like, yeah, I can't door dash with you being at the crib if you can put dick in your mouth that quick.
00:47:58
Wop
but But, bro.
00:48:00
TWIYpod
I don't know if we can be together either, because if I got a door dash with you because I can't trust you to be at home, then we got bigger issues.
00:48:07
Wop
have You have much bigger issues. Mr. Former plug. You clearly don't have to plug no more. you mean
00:48:12
TWIYpod
He might be. He might be. I didn't hit him. um um I wanted to, but I was... i was i was i was sometimes Sometimes you take a loss.
00:48:17
Wop
Ain't no way he to plug no more door dashing. No way.
00:48:22
TWIYpod
Sometimes you had a party, you caught a bad pack, and you got to fucking get back to it. What what else you going to do, DoorDash?
00:48:30
Wop
What kind of plugs are you talking about? Cause like that is.
00:48:33
TWIYpod
Oh, he he he had he had everything had a little bit of everything over there.
00:48:33
Wop
um
00:48:37
Wop
It's levels though. Still you have a little bit of everything and still be not like the the plug, plug, plug. Like you might just be consistent and ain't, can't nobody take that from Like you always was consistent, whatever.
00:48:49
TWIYpod
He did enough to feed his habit.
00:48:52
Wop
Gang, you can't be out here door dashing on you the plug though. Like for real though. Like it just,
00:48:57
TWIYpod
Yeah, because people need you. Or you could be using DoorDash to meet some new customers. You make a play. Hey, after I drop this food off, going to at your crib. and then you drop the food off and then you go to the crib. Cop pull you over. Yo, I'm DoorDash. And look at the orange bag.
00:49:13
TWIYpod
I feel like that's a genius fucking plan, but this this video about monogamy, and I tell y'all money is fake all the time.
00:49:23
TWIYpod
This Asian looking lady, she looked like a little Jhene Aiko.
00:49:27
Wop
She snapped, man. She snapped.
00:49:29
TWIYpod
Jhene Aiko. She looked like she going to whisper some shit to me in the middle of the evening.
00:49:34
Wop
She snapped. I'm fucking with you.
00:49:36
TWIYpod
need to unlearn from your vantage point? Monogamy. It's fake. I think when it comes to romantic partnerships, the expectations on our partners are unrealistic. Why do you think that? Like, because of how we operate in every other relationship, right? So we have multiple friends. We have multiple sometimes siblings. We come out with two parents if your daddy ain't abandoning you. You know what mean?
00:49:58
TWIYpod
But you have multiple people that serve as this, as as this, whatever the relationship is.
00:50:00
Wop
Bye.
00:50:03
TWIYpod
Yeah. But when we go to romantic partnership, the expectations of them to answer immediately, which we don't do even at at our jobs sometimes. We we say we're going to wait. it waittt it out a little bit. Why can't your partner yeah have a couple hours to himself?
00:50:14
TWIYpod
Creating space for for yourself. You want space, but no, in romantic partnership, you're supposed said be all up under the person. You want to be in their skin. This idea of how we operate with our romantic partners, to me, is just not an healthy a healthy concept of what it looks like to have a healthy relationship with another person.
00:50:30
TWIYpod
And then I also believe that this idea of a soulmate, staying with one person for the rest of your life and nobody else, What? That don't even sound like fun. Don't we want to live? We only got one life. What's the number?
00:50:47
TWIYpod
Now, WAP.
00:50:54
TWIYpod
Here we go.
00:50:57
Wop
Where's my drop shorty? Hey. Hey.
00:51:00
TWIYpod
What?
00:51:00
Wop
I
00:51:03
TWIYpod
ah no what
00:51:06
Wop
love it.
00:51:14
TWIYpod
Why did this clip speak to you so much, Wop?
00:51:19
TWIYpod
and I'm going to let you go on the soliloquy because I got to report my JMO.
00:51:19
Wop
man.
00:51:22
TWIYpod
But you go on your soliloquy. I'll be right back.
00:51:25
Wop
Listen. So. For me personally, right? When I see shit like this and in everybody gonna see it differently, of course, but I personally see it as
00:51:42
Wop
a woman really for the most part being as honest as she can be about some shit. And I respect it. I 100% respect it. She's telling her truth.
00:51:54
Wop
and And I really... think she's telling a lot of women's truth. I think a lot of women just don't want admit they feel the same way to some degree. When she broke it down the way she broke it down, it does seem like it.
00:52:09
Wop
That can't, when you say it like that, it could be boring. Like, damn, be with one person for the rest of my life. And it's, you know, all these attractive people and things going on and, you know, and it's, you know, when you,
00:52:26
Wop
part of life, of course, is experiences, right? We all know that. So it's like, I understand what this woman is saying.
Rethinking Relationship Norms: Monogamy and Expectations
00:52:34
Wop
i What I most appreciated, again, about that whole piece was and took from it was the rawness and authenticity.
00:52:42
Wop
That's what I like. I like that. Like, a lot of women just won't o admit that they don't want to really be attached to one man. And that's fine.
00:52:54
TWIYpod
ah She's a toot, bro.
00:52:59
Wop
Bro, I promise you, you not in this scene right now. You not on this dating market, bro.
00:53:07
TWIYpod
No, that young lady is a toot.
00:53:09
Wop
Okay, cool. she Even if she is.
00:53:11
TWIYpod
That's Mandy B, bro. she she The horrible decisions. That's one of her podcasts. She got a million different podcasts. She was a toot and a madam and an escort.
00:53:23
TWIYpod
Before everything started, you can go listen to Trapping Anonymous where she did a podcast where a nigga where she talked about how she was an escort and she was flying out to go hang with a nigga for a weekend. He would fuck. He would pay. He would take care of everything everything, give her the experience. And then one day he said, yo, you got some friends?
00:53:44
TWIYpod
And then she got her friends involved and she's ah she was doing escort shit. She worked at Starlet. I'm not surprised that that kind of commentary came from a woman that's used to the nightlife scene.
00:53:58
TWIYpod
That kind of commentary coming from a woman in the nightlife scene doesn't surprise me. When you get that kind of commentary from Shorty that's in the PTA sessions, that's when that's when you can say,
00:54:13
TWIYpod
ah You got an honest woman, and this is an honest thing, and I'm glad she's being honest, and she's true to her feelings, and she understands. Yeah, but when you're talking about a toot-wop, that's exactly what you're getting. You're getting you're getting prostitute talk, brother.
00:54:32
Wop
and what and what And what I'm telling you is that most of these women are prostitutes.
00:54:32
TWIYpod
She's cooked.
00:54:36
Wop
They just don't want to admit it. That's why I appreciate her admitting that she's a prostitute. Like most of them don't want to admit that's what they're doing. They're auctioning that thing off and they don't want to o admit it.
00:54:48
Wop
That's what they're doing. that She's...
00:54:50
TWIYpod
$25, $25, $25, $30 over here, over there, in in the red hat, going once, going twice, sold! did We sold that to man over there.
00:55:04
Wop
they they that's what they're doing today, bro. Like, it's, I say this all the time. They will quick to call. They be in the group chat. Girl, that nigga's a trick. And whoop the bam. If he's a trick, he think it's something for sale.
00:55:20
Wop
You, you are for sale. as You are. Like,
00:55:26
TWIYpod
ah
00:55:30
Wop
why
00:55:30
TWIYpod
ao leave leave my leave my tricking brethren alone bro like but it's true it's true something is for sale something is for sale you didn't get that money from that young man for nothing so let's not act like
00:55:35
Wop
um it's It's just what it is. It's the game.
00:55:39
Wop
Something is for sale. If I... if i you
00:55:47
TWIYpod
Let's not act act like that young man just sent you $40 because you have a nice smile. Bitch, you've been sending subs talking about how hungry you are for 30 minutes.
00:55:59
TWIYpod
And if he would have just said, you should probably eat, then you block him. You know what I'm saying? So he sent the 40 ball over.
00:56:10
Wop
ah
00:56:10
TWIYpod
he said he sent the 40 ball over.
00:56:13
Wop
ah care you
00:56:14
TWIYpod
And now he a trick. All you've been talking about is you in a bad mood because you ain't eat. You in a bad mood because you you left your lunch on the table. You said you was in a bad mood and you ain't ate seven times in 12 texts from 9.15 to 11.15.
00:56:29
TWIYpod
Of course he sent the 40 ball over. You was begging. Panhandle princesses.
00:56:34
Wop
I told you this, thiss most females when you talk to them, When you talking to female, this dating market is fucked up, bro. is It's the dating scene is bad game.
00:56:45
TWIYpod
It's tough.
00:56:45
Wop
Every time you talk to female, she either hungry, they always hungry game.
00:56:45
TWIYpod
It's difficult.
00:56:49
TWIYpod
They're always hungry. They're always hungry.
00:56:53
Wop
I ain't ate nothing all day It's eight o'clock, bitch, damn. Like, what the fuck?
00:56:56
TWIYpod
You got to get it together.
00:56:57
Wop
you got like You ain't ate nothing. Whole time ain't ate though.
00:56:59
TWIYpod
All day.
00:57:01
Wop
That's the killer though. Bitches snack. I promise you, that's all they do.
00:57:07
TWIYpod
No, sometimes they're actually poor. whatp sometimes Sometimes they're actually poor and they have because girls,
00:57:12
Wop
They are.
00:57:15
Wop
Them the real
00:57:17
TWIYpod
Girls have that girl dinner situation where they'll eat like a bunch of shit that don't match. And then they'll laugh and they'll be like, girl dinner.
00:57:29
TWIYpod
And like, that's just what it And this the funniest shit ever. It'll be like fucking, you know, I ate three Ritz crackers, a spoon of peanut butter and a piece of toast girl dinner.
00:57:40
TWIYpod
And it's like, God damn gang. Like, It's like I'd just be forgetting to eat. Like, I'd be so busy. And then when they get downtime, what do they do? They're getting to their relaxing routine. They're probably smoking. They're texting in their phone.
00:57:53
TWIYpod
And like, unless they're in dire need of food, like they just they're good with girl dinner. Girl breakfast is like fucking Starbucks coffee you ah in a blunt. Like that's girl breakfast.
00:58:05
Wop
type shit. but but But this the thing though, like they do this too, bro. That's what I'm saying. like the bad Like, especially the bad bitches. Like, I see it all the time in my job. Like, we know pretty privilege is real, bro. It's it's real. Like, females, the prettier you are, we know that shit can open doors and get you things that it just...
00:58:31
Wop
shouldn't necessarily get you, but it does. It's just what it is. We get it. And in the same thing goes for men too. It's just, it happens and it's cool. It's fair game, whatever.
00:58:45
Wop
But you have to be aware of where you fall in the line of that as a person. That's where a lot of people fall in delusions. You have to pick and choose where you fall in in that line of how attractive I appear to people and all of these things.
00:59:04
Wop
Because attractiveness is is subjective, as we all know. It's women that's prettier than another woman, but another woman got the the personality and the the seduction factor or whatever like that's carrying her and might have you more attracted to that woman.
00:59:24
Wop
Then the one that's just...
00:59:25
TWIYpod
She got better brows.
00:59:27
Wop
Exactly.
00:59:28
TWIYpod
She got better brows.
00:59:29
Wop
You finding yourself all type of reasons. I like when she ties shoes.
00:59:32
TWIYpod
Oh,
00:59:34
Wop
You know what I'm saying?
00:59:36
TWIYpod
no.
00:59:37
Wop
All type
00:59:38
TWIYpod
Oh, no. You seen that bitch apply some lip gloss? Oh, God damn. She stole my heart.
00:59:42
Wop
of shit. You know, it's it's a little shit too for everybody. So, like like, it's all about, again, like, you feel me? Like, I see it from every lens. Like, bro, it's hard for people to just truly be attractive to only one person because it's different levels to that shit.
01:00:05
Wop
But of course, self-control is everything.
01:00:10
TWIYpod
I don't think that love is a magical force that's going to stop you from being attracted to other people.
01:00:17
Wop
hell no.
01:00:18
TWIYpod
Like, you can be in love all you want. If you've seen Meg DeStallion shaking her ass on stage, you'd be like, huh.
01:00:28
TWIYpod
think I'm attracted to that. You know what I'm saying? Like you can be a love up to your elbows, but if Cardi B get on stage in that little red number and start doing her and start doing her thing, like, oh shit.
01:00:41
Wop
was cocky.
01:00:45
TWIYpod
That little speaking little motherfucker. Okay, girl. So, like, i don't think love is a force field that's going to stop you from being attracted to other people. But I will say that, like, Shorty Cook, Mandy Cook, with with some of her points, I don't think that her points are different than any man that I've ever heard try and sell.
01:01:00
Wop
so
01:01:08
TWIYpod
ah um Damn, what's the shit? What's the shit where they be having a mucher a bunch of bunch of partners?
01:01:17
Wop
of my polygamy.
01:01:18
TWIYpod
Polygamy, yeah. When I hear niggas trying to sell polygamy, they have the same points. It's funny hearing it from her and knowing where she comes from, but then it's kind of expected from her because...
01:01:32
TWIYpod
You've just been aside your whole life. Of course you don't understand why somebody will want to be in their partner's skin. Of course not. You've been aside. Most of the niggas you deal with are married niggas. Of course you don't understand that like when you find your person, you want to lay up under your person for 24 hours in a day.
01:01:52
TWIYpod
Do you want to do that every day? No, I think that might be a symptom of something else. But It's okay. It's right message, wrong messenger. How about that? Because I don't think anything she said
The Power of Message and Influence in Relationships
01:02:05
TWIYpod
was wrong. I think she just can't be the person saying it with escorting, sex working, nightlife.
01:02:14
TWIYpod
She wrote a book about this shit. Like with all this shit in her background, nobody's going to hear that message the way that it needs to be heard because she's the wrong person to say it.
01:02:25
Wop
But I'm having more.
01:02:25
TWIYpod
If you go get Dr. Cheyenne Bryant,
01:02:28
Wop
No,
01:02:28
TWIYpod
the relationship coach to drop them bars.
01:02:31
Wop
looking no, no, no, no.
01:02:33
TWIYpod
Yeah, that's what, that's what the world needs. Well, that's what we need.
01:02:36
Wop
no oh
01:02:38
TWIYpod
Well, we need, we need them girls from poor minds that sat down with Cam Newton and and laced his ass up for two hours.
01:02:41
Wop
I would, my
01:02:46
TWIYpod
We need them to start having bars like this and then it'll be acceptable.
01:02:47
Wop
problem. my My problem with her, though, is that she's too old to not. And I'm not saying settle down either. I just don't understand how a good woman ain't found a good man yet. Like, I just don't believe this scenario, bro. Like, I promise you, ladies, I truly believe if a woman is truly a good woman, there is a good man out there for you.
01:03:13
Wop
Because I promise you a good man is looking for a good woman. I promise you this. There is, the like, I promise you this. So I'm not telling nobody nobody to settle, not a man or a woman, like, settle on anybody. I'm not saying that.
01:03:31
Wop
My problem is it just, like, seemed like she's just a little bit too two old. She the wrong messenger, too. Like, I need a married woman that's happily married. And that I get what you're saying as far as the messenger in this type of message. But But at the same time, why would a married woman be given this message?
01:03:51
TWIYpod
She's not. Well, Dr. Cheyenne Bryant is not playing in the same field.
01:03:57
Wop
She is.
01:03:57
TWIYpod
So she's super educated. So black women are the the most educated demographic of gender out there. But she's super educated. She's a doctor.
01:04:09
TWIYpod
She makes money. So that puts her in that upper one percent.
01:04:14
Wop
What she do?
01:04:14
TWIYpod
of Of people. She's ah she's a doctor. Dr. Cheyenne Bryant, she's a doctor.
01:04:19
Wop
What's this?
01:04:19
TWIYpod
relationship Relationship doctor, whatever the fuck.
01:04:22
Wop
Man, what the fuck is this?
01:04:22
TWIYpod
Psychiatrist, therapist. Look, I never paid the lady for her services, but she she did all the doctor shit before she came to social media with it, and now she's a social media influencer. But you put her money up there, maybe she's up there with the top 10% of wealth wealth makers in the world.
01:04:43
TWIYpod
So if that's her field, then they got what she got. They got education. They got money. So you can't run that tight of a ship when you're trying to do that against your peers.
01:04:56
TWIYpod
When you see men with money, that top 1% of men, they never go get a bitch that's on their level financially. They go save a bitch because now you got to get with the program. Now you got to be good with the program that's provided to you.
01:05:12
Wop
Even the ones that do get one, like like a Jay-Z and a Beyonce. Right? She's her own brand.
01:05:20
TWIYpod
Okay.
01:05:21
Wop
Jada had his discretions.
01:05:24
TWIYpod
And she dropped lemonade.
01:05:27
Wop
Did she drop him?
01:05:30
Wop
That's the main thing, right? Because what what we see what Cardi B did. She left Offset, divorced You're cheating, leave you. Not let's make some money off of the the the whatever, that the the people want to know.
01:05:45
Wop
ah She could have made some money off that shit if she was really, really smart. Like, like okay.
01:05:48
TWIYpod
but that's But that's not fair either, though. though Because that's her brand.
01:05:53
Wop
awesome
01:05:56
TWIYpod
and Beyonce's brand was never, fuck a nigga, drop a nigga, I'll find another one. That's never been Beyonce's brand.
01:06:03
Wop
For sure.
01:06:04
TWIYpod
Beyonce's brand is so...
01:06:05
Wop
Wait minute, oh no. Me, myself, and that is all I got. And he, what? Like, she got them.
01:06:12
TWIYpod
Mm-hmm.
01:06:13
Wop
Women empowerment, that's Beyonce movement.
01:06:13
TWIYpod
And she drops... She dropped single ladies while she was married. What you talking about, Wop? She dropped single ladies and went and got married on them single hoes.
01:06:24
Wop
What you mean? That's not her bag.
01:06:26
TWIYpod
she dropped ever She dropped irreplaceable.
01:06:29
Wop
What you mean?
01:06:29
TWIYpod
You must not know about me. You must not know about me. And then she fucking got back with a nigga that fucking was dealing with Becky with the good hair.
01:06:40
TWIYpod
So clearly she didn't pack his things to the left to the left because he's still there.
01:06:43
Wop
thats what i think it But I'm saying, she's made music, basically telling women, in women empowerment, women movement, it's our time, we run the world.
01:06:54
Wop
like like She's made these type songs, these anthems, but at the end of the day, when push came to shove, did she leave the man?
01:06:58
TWIYpod
she's She's consistently not lived her message.
01:07:01
Wop
No.
01:07:04
TWIYpod
that's That's what I'll say about Beyonce. She's consistently not lived the message that she was singing. And she can always fall back on it because she don't write all her records. She didn't write single ladies.
01:07:14
Wop
Yeah.
01:07:15
TWIYpod
So it was cool when she turned up and got married secretly.
01:07:19
Wop
ah
01:07:20
TWIYpod
After saying, uh, uh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Like, she can go secretly get married after dropping Single Ladies. If he like it, then he should have put a ring on it. Like, actually, then he can put a ring on it.
01:07:33
TWIYpod
um But... Cardi B, her whole shit is, I don't need you fuck niggas. I'll get another nigga eat my pussy, bitch. You don't like this? Another nigga will, bitch. Put the dangly thing in the back my throat, bitch.
01:07:46
TWIYpod
So when she leaves Offset, she can't be with another nigga that's messier than Offset. At least Offset wasn't at the Super Bowl with his discretions.
01:07:57
TWIYpod
At least Offset didn't have six side kids in one year.
01:08:01
Wop
but that's,
01:08:03
TWIYpod
So it's some discretions where you, hey, you might be the greatest partner I ever had in my life, but your discretions are so fucking bad, I can't publicly be seen with you no more.
01:08:18
Wop
but that's, that's what I'm saying about the way women think. That's why, again, like the you you can call it what you want. Like, I'm not approving it. umm um I'm not saying like, yeah, these are women. Like what she's saying, that she's clearly telling you through the door that now I don't know if she manipulate niggas behind closed doors and lead niggas on. I'm not going say I know that part of it because But if you being straightforward with a nigga like that, you come through the door like, listen, I like you. I like what we got going on. But listen, I'm not the type of bitch that just want to be up under a nigga all day.
01:08:55
Wop
Why would a nigga wife you then? Why would a nigga in his right mind say, this my bitch though? You can't. She tell him through the door. But they don't do that. That's the thing. Because...
01:09:05
TWIYpod
No, sometimes they do.
01:09:05
Wop
You
01:09:07
TWIYpod
Sometimes they so sometimes they sell you...
01:09:08
Wop
nigga.
01:09:10
TWIYpod
So WAP, you've never been sold a bad ah lemon? You've never been sold a lemon of a female before? Lemon. So you never been sold the we're going to be friends with benefits.

01:09:28
Wop

01:09:30
TWIYpod
And you do that. And you do that for some time. And then you kissed her in the mouth ah for some time.
01:09:35
Wop
yeah What's I'm saying?
01:09:38
TWIYpod
ah Shit. I don't know. how How long do it take for women to get comfortable to where they want to fucking, they want dick at 2 in the afternoon instead of 2 in the middle of the night. I don't know. But for for whatever time, and then they hang out with you in between the dick, they spend time with you, you're a pretty cool person.
01:09:57
Wop

01:16:49
TWIYpod
No.
01:17:03
Wop
Cause I ain't never really like, just consecutively clapped a lot of females like a month or two. I done hit a female for a couple of weeks and she might want more. I might not be on that X, Y, and Z, whatever may be the case. Like, but like I'm consistently hitting the female and then whatever may be the case, like more than likely what happens, that female becomes probably my little bitch or whatever.
01:17:29
Wop
And more than likely what happens is that a female just get tends to get bored, gang. know I'm saying? Like, once you start consistently showing up, like, you know I'm saying? Like, yeah, the dick still be the dick. Like, that'd be the only thing really start keeping it up.

01:20:43
TWIYpod
We can't just be bailing out shorty because you like the fact that she's a loose cannon, Wop. We can't just do that. like
01:20:56
Wop
Like she one of them, like don't play with her. She not, She be cool till you try her. She want to know.
01:21:02
TWIYpod
ah was What was I watching the other night where I laughed because I said that that's the shit that I used to like. i was I said like something like, that's my type of carrying on. It was like 90 Day Fiance the other way or some shit like that.
01:21:16
TWIYpod
And Shorty got into an argument with her dude. And as soon as the argument was over, she was like, that's it. It's fucking over. I'm fucking done with you. Go back to America.
01:21:27
TWIYpod
And then she walks out the door. She slams the door, mad dramatic and shit. But like every argument or disagreement they had ended like that. And I say, yeah, that's my type of carrying on.
01:21:40
TWIYpod
But it's not, bro. Like, I don't like the stress of a breakup after every argument. Like, just because I said French toast was better than waffles doesn't mean that we got to break up, gang.
Reality TV vs. Real Life: The Influence on Perceptions
01:21:54
Wop
But that's that's my thing with relationships nowadays, bro. That's why say social media has ruined relationships, bro, and it's ruined it for women more than it has for men because
01:22:05
TWIYpod
reality TV has helped too. Cause you gotta think of it.
01:22:08
Wop
But that's not a time.
01:22:10
TWIYpod
Reality TV, Flavor of Love, Ray J a Love, that shit's been on since the year 2000 and it's only gotten worse.
01:22:18
Wop
Well, like 05, 06 was like Flavor of Love.
01:22:18
TWIYpod
So
01:22:21
Wop
I remember that. I was like our junior year.
01:22:22
TWIYpod
that's why a lot of yeah That's why a lot of young ladies don't have great social skills or they don't know how to manage relationships because what they see on TV is if somebody says something about you, she's a shady bitch and you should never trust her and throw a drink in her face when you see her.
01:22:39
TWIYpod
And like, that's what they see. Like, that's what they, oh, yeah, and this bitch is shady. But you're talking to people who are having conversations, having conversations with a production crew who knows you're having this conversation and they know they're about to sit down with somebody else. So you've got, you're sitting down, you're watching people being gaslit.
01:22:59
TWIYpod
Your life ain't that complicated. Your life, nobody's gaslighting you in your life. These people are being produced. You can't act like these people. You can't start feeling like you're having the same experience as these people because they're being produced and you're just living life, bro.
01:23:18
Wop
but they didn't get that away gang.
01:23:18
TWIYpod
ah But.
01:23:20
Wop
Like, cause reality TV it in itself is what it it sounds like it is.
01:23:20
TWIYpod
rhythm
01:23:26
Wop
Like that's what people, like one of the biggest fights me and my baby mama ever got into it with was because I told her that bad girls club was fake.
01:23:36
Wop
talking about, we got into a full out bra, nigga.
01:23:39
TWIYpod
Why you lie?
01:23:41
Wop
Fuck you mean? You see?
01:23:43
TWIYpod
Why you lie to her?
01:23:44
Wop
Yang, anything that when you watching it, and you know this, nigga, anything that that has multiple, it's not podcast, bro. Like, so don't, don't, like, but I'm talking about a TV show, nigga, that has cameramen, producers.
01:24:00
TWIYpod
Yeah.
01:24:02
Wop
Like, bro, they they know when every time y'all about to fight, ironically, this shit is staged.
01:24:08
TWIYpod
it's It's scripted, but they're gaslit people. It's not fake like wrestling fake.
01:24:14
Wop
No, it's not.
01:24:14
TWIYpod
It's not scripted to the point of wrestling, but they know that Shorty's coming in for the confessional at 6 o'clock, and the first thing they're going to say is, yo, did you know Shanisha was talking shit about you, bro?
01:24:15
Wop
It's
01:24:26
TWIYpod
How do you feel about Shanisha talking shit about you? And then they ask you questions about somebody that you already got static with, And all the bad things that your relationship entails. And they're asking you on camera.
01:24:40
TWIYpod
So now you kind of hyped up. So now as soon as you leave that little one-on-one booth room with the camera on it. Now you feel like you have to go punch Shorty in the face or else you're going look away.
01:24:53
Wop
What I'm talking about is what's fake about it is that the aesthetics behind it, right? It's in public places. It's, it's, it's, it's not to say that shit don't go down in public places, but it's the aesthetics. It's the, like you said, the confessions, everybody's makeup, everything's on point.
01:25:12
Wop
It's a show gang. That's what I'm mostly still talking about. Like it's a show and
01:25:19
TWIYpod
It's produced, not fake. I'll say produced. Heavily produced, but not fake. Because you've seen the tryouts for bad girls clubs.
01:25:27
Wop
Right.
01:25:29
TWIYpod
motherfuckers is fighting the strangers just to prove, yo, I'm a bitch that'll come over here and fight anybody for disrespect.
01:25:36
Wop
They selling an image. And of course, producers, their job is to pick the feistiest and pair the the people that can sell the best product.
01:25:39
TWIYpod
Yeah.
01:25:46
Wop
And we get what what the shit is about. i'm not saying that to some degree that it's not somewhat real. and We get it. It's reality TV. It's not real TV.
01:25:57
Wop
live tv it's not that that's my thing if it was live it'd be different because live you can't control what ultimately happens when it's when it's produced in stage you can control you have security in place it don't get too reckless all these things right you can't control shit when it's live that's my point and and
01:26:22
Wop
um I think still it does tie into the social media stuff because these people ultimately became influencers and things of that nature, which ultimately is a part of the culture with with with the women today.
01:26:35
Wop
All these women, and it's it's so crazy. Like when you think about how how the city girls took
The Rise and Fall of Influencer Culture
01:26:44
Wop
over, right? for for For a couple of summers. They was like, before the Migs, did the Glow Rillas and all of them, where they at now?
