We are calling this episode, Hey Young World. Tell
00:01:53
TWISPOD
The world is yours. So speaking of young world, we were talking about this earlier, you know, what what the young people are talking about. So they um evidently there's this viral thing on TikTok with, I guess, the number six, seven.
00:02:03
shatara
me how it starts.
00:02:07
TWISPOD
So i guess it started with, ah you're laughing. It's just, it so it started with this rapper Skrilla. And i dont correct me if I'm wrong. I thought Skrilla was a white boy. I don't know. I'm like,
00:02:20
TWISPOD
I thought I heard that, but he like says it in the song.
00:02:23
TWISPOD
So six, seven, and then it got connected with the NBA and, so and, uh, specifically LaMelo ball. Cause they said, I think he's six, seven, but he moves like he's six, two or something. So, you know, you have a lot of young people on Tik TOK.
00:02:36
TWISPOD
Um, just saying six, seven, what?
00:02:39
shatara
i had I had to go find out because I work with the children.
00:02:42
shatara
I work with kids and the kids are in trouble because they consistently have been saying six, seven, where it's like, you know,
00:02:50
shatara
Okay, enough already. And I'm trying to understand, like, now what are they talking about?
00:02:53
TWISPOD
So how do they say it? Like what do they, did like what is it?
00:02:56
shatara
They'll be in the middle of doing math. And the number six seven will come They'll be like, oh, 6-7. And it'll be like, that's not the wrong answer, actually. It was 6-7. So yeah it was that and then bussing.
00:03:11
shatara
Like it's bussing.
00:03:12
shatara
So bussing is good. So for example, even I know like me and a comic, we were talking about like eating wings somewhere. Like, and let's say I'm like, how are the wings? He was like, the wings was bussing. I was like, they were?
00:03:21

Celebrity Legal Issues and Personal Hobbies
00:07:13
shatara
um So we all know that Diddy is locked up.
00:07:16
shatara
They won't let him out. And the judge has responded to his request to serve his sentence in Fort Dix. So Fort Dix is South Jersey. And ah there's a military base down there. And apparently there's a prison that he wants to go to. He's making a request like, excuse me, your honor.
00:07:32
TWISPOD
yeah this nigga got a lot of nerve just plenty plenty of nerve
00:07:35

00:07:51
TWISPOD
Sir. Well, I think they said, you know, to keep him close to New York or whatever.
00:07:55
shatara
Well, he has a $500,000 fine he has to pay, which I'm sure wouldn't say that be a problem.
00:07:59
TWISPOD
Which is easy. I think he that's that's no that's not a problem. He just wants to go home.
00:08:03
shatara
why But if he's in a low security, you know, federal correctional facility in New Jersey, um there will be a drug rehabilitation program. And apparently if he, the hustle is you get into that program, you can knock some time off your phone.
00:08:14
TWISPOD
I heard you can up to a year it can knock off they were saying it's really hard so considering ah he was just caught a couple months ago with the baby oil when and when the jig was about to be up ah you know let's see you know I think he should yeah see that's ah that's a good thing

00:08:55
shatara
Why do they do Denny like that?
00:08:55
TWISPOD
Why? I think that was on purpose. I really think that was on purpose.
00:09:00
shatara
Somebody's having fun.
00:09:00
TWISPOD
That was the worst one. Or when he was on his knees underneath the couch. Underneath the um the bench.
00:09:06
TWISPOD
Underneath um the desk.
00:09:08
shatara
Wait, I didn't see that one.

00:09:15
shatara
And I'm like, and then they give, like, everybody has the same face at one point. You sort of looked your like. Is that the jury?
00:09:23
TWISPOD
I think they that was very purposeful.
00:09:26
TWISPOD
They were scary. They were like scary sketches. Like, who did this?
00:09:30
shatara
remember getting those like character ah pictures done at like fair or something like that.

00:09:39
shatara
That's who it is. Somebody's drawing and they're laughing. They're like, ah they they're cracking jokes when they sketch. I mean, you know, i know they have to do a lot of them, you know, and a small amount of time, but come on now.
00:09:51
TWISPOD
That was so purposeful though. I think, yeah, I think it was a whole inside joke. Like, did you see the what? Did you see picture?
00:09:56
shatara
do When I did, it's kind like Disney. Remember the Disney competition? How many little inappropriate things they could sneak in throughout the movies?
00:10:03
shatara
I think it's a ditty competition they have.
00:10:06
shatara
again The craziest picture.
00:10:07
TWISPOD
To just make him look the the wildest.
00:10:10
TWISPOD
They made him look wild. Like a wild coon.
00:10:12

They did. mate I think I just looked to find out like, how's he look today? um don't even know. They're like, did you? this I have it on mute.
00:10:18
TWISPOD

00:10:18

shatara
So he's going to do, is it four years is what he's being sentenced to?
00:10:28
TWISPOD
Yeah, but he's going get time served. So, I mean, he'll probably do a too so ah solid two. He'll probably, you know, I think when it's all when it's all said and done, he'll probably do a solid two.
00:10:32
shatara
He'll do a two set.
00:10:40
TWISPOD
He'll get the one year for time. for He'll get some time served and it'll get the he'll probably get the maximum amount that they could give him for the credit if he finishes the drug um rehab.
00:10:52
TWISPOD

00:10:56

00:14:05
shatara
I imagine that you are you like ghost? Oh, and you like shape it.
00:14:09

00:14:31
shatara
Sounds like aging gracefully.
00:14:35
shatara
ah like it. There I go. Speaking aging gracefully. like um i don't want to get into the Chicago um ice raid. It did happen.
00:14:47
shatara
And it was a terrible thing. Somebody was like, you didn't hear about what happened? I'm like, I just missed it. Like it just happened the other day. So apparently ICE went into a black neighborhood in Chicago.
00:14:53
TWISPOD
I thought you said you didn't want to talk about it.
00:14:56
shatara
didn't want to talk about it, but now that I've started I'll give you just the headline briefly.
00:15:02
shatara
And um yeah, they, what do want to say here? They terrorized the whole neighborhood. So force of entry, including children, zip tied their hands together, interrogated them without access or legal counsel.
00:15:17
shatara
And this was all ICE coming in to, i wouldn't say they, people would say they were regular blacks like me and you.
00:15:24
TWISPOD
Yeah, you said regular blacks. That's what I heard. I heard that they had they had one for black people and then the others for the immigrants.
00:15:31
shatara
And there they were, everybody woke up like what's going, it was not a good thing.
00:15:35
shatara
So this is out of control.
00:15:36
shatara
And the re and that's why I put that in ratchet.
00:15:38
shatara
Cause I was like, this is ratchet news. Like this is of course it could be woke, but I felt like, like it's ratchet outside.
00:15:45
shatara
Like this person.
00:15:46
TWISPOD
It is. I'll be in Chicago, too, in couple of days.
00:15:53
shatara

00:16:11
TWISPOD
to He threw me off, though, when he was with that white woman, though. Like...
00:16:16
shatara
did that make him ugly on the inside?
00:16:17
TWISPOD
It sure did. Now it is. Just, you know, just gave him a little ah little, like... It's like having a really nice outfit on, but you got a little doo-doo stain in the back.
00:16:25
shatara
He was like, she was like, Nia Long, motherfucker. That's what she said. You know who I am. I'm Nia Long. Remember Kanye West had in the video?

Okay. So they were, and they were the bail bondsman. So um yeah, they went on a trip. They had a beautiful time and her whole thing is like, she's moved forward. And she wants him to win. And there's a lot of healing that needs to happen.
00:17:19
shatara
But the kids are like the biggest part. And to see your kids actually grow together and get over trauma is like, you know, the biggest thing. So I just look at that and I thought people wanted her to be salty.
00:17:30
shatara
People wanted her to be like, you know, she was like, no she was very classy.

TWISPOD
Oh, say loud. I like that. Absolutely.
00:18:02
shatara
I don't talk about my personal business because it's nobody's business.

And then, you know what these men want? There's that's been said, like what they want is a woman who is together and all this, but they don't bring.
00:26:12
TWISPOD
And that's what I'm saying. They, they, they got a whole laundry list of what they want from her, but I'm like, but you don't even look like you doing any of that, bro, bro.
00:26:22
shatara
Yeah. My forehead to bounce off your belly.
00:26:27
TWISPOD
I'm like, we can't both have be soft, have soft, you know, soft arms.

TWISPOD
But you said he was, you said he was a nice height.
00:26:58
shatara
No. He's got a good height. Yeah, very nice. Down to earth. Not full of himself. And I think that's what makes him so great is that he's not full of himself.
00:27:06
TWISPOD
That's why I said, does he know?
00:27:09
TWISPOD
He's got to know a little something.
00:27:10
shatara
He doesn't have an awareness of like um from what I met. You know, this is just for face value again. Wasn't ready.

TWISPOD
He's definitely yummy.

00:27:26
TWISPOD

00:28:28
TWISPOD
A little something, a little something. And we gotta be, you know, we're mixed. You know, its it's good to be like that, you know?
00:28:33
shatara
It doesn't make my car insurance go up any any higher.
00:28:35
TWISPOD
There you go, right? And doesn't pay my rent. So doesn't pay my mortgage. doesn't pay anything. So it's okay.
00:28:41
shatara
It's a man's world. That's all I got to say. So let me just find myself without a woman or a girl.
00:28:42
TWISPOD
a But it ain't nothing. and Okay.
00:28:46
shatara
Hello. and you know And you know a nasty man had to say that. A woman or a girl.
00:28:51
TWISPOD
Sonette, you gotta even think about that until you said that.
00:28:57
shatara
Just saying it out loud. You couldn't just it without a woman?
00:28:57
TWISPOD
I would like to say that it was all above board. All right.
00:28:59
TWISPOD
All right. Where we at now?
00:29:01
shatara
So, ah well no, I wanted to talk about Aisha Curry.
00:29:01
TWISPOD
Are we, are we? Go ahead. Go ahead. Oh, yes.
00:29:06
shatara
I want to talk about a Curry. So, so there's some um clips resurfacing of her and she's been talking about her marriage to Steph Curry.
00:29:08
TWISPOD
e I do love that. Go ahead.
00:29:16
shatara
Now, Steph Curry is um related to us.
00:29:19
TWISPOD
In so many ways. Mm-hmm.
00:29:20
shatara
And he's family. People like, because you light skin, if you say so.
00:29:26
shatara
He's a curry. So, and he's great. And he's doing his damn thing.
00:29:29
shatara
So anyway, um she was on a podcast called Call Her Daddy.
00:29:34
shatara
In this interview, she's commenting about her marriage with Steph Curry. And she's talking about how, you know, she thought she was going to be a career girl. in regards to their marriage and you know having kids put her in a different place.
00:29:49
shatara
And I understood where she was coming from. They were shitting on her saying like, you know this is her last time you know she shits on Steph Curry and she coming sideways. And this and I was just like, you know what? They got married young. So I did see somebody else responded and they said on their post that every woman needs to have their whole face.
00:30:09
TWISPOD
Totally agree. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
00:30:09
shatara
It's very clear that, you know, she got married straight in her twenties, started a family.
00:30:14
shatara
And she did say like, she didn't really have time to think of herself.
00:30:20
shatara
and There was nothing, she anne that but she just said, I constantly talk about this in therapy. And then she said, even when she may point certain things out to Steph, he's like, what? Like, why are you even thinking about that?
00:30:30
shatara
He doesn't even like acknowledge your feelings, like laughs on it.
00:30:33
shatara
And she's like, so he doesn't even, doesn't even communicate. She said something that was like, ooh, like you shouldn't have said that. I did feel that like, oh, you should have kept that right in therapy. shouldn't have said that on the podcast.
00:30:42
TWISPOD
Tell yourself, mm-mm.
00:30:44
shatara
But she did say like, I'm working on that in therapy. Like I constantly talk about that in therapy. I don't even think he's, he's not meeting me halfway on this.
00:30:50
shatara
Like the way I feel on this here, you know, she has one cooking line.
00:30:56
shatara
Like she has a lot going on.
00:30:58
shatara
She has, they got what? Three, four kids.
00:31:00
TWISPOD
Yeah, they got four kids.
00:31:02
TWISPOD
But she and and, you know, no disrespect to but she has like hobbies. And that's what we get to see. And I and, you know, I feel and I think she, you know, she got it bad. People were really coming after her. I remember seeing that um just being mean to her in so many ways.
00:31:19
TWISPOD
But like you said, she was young when she got married. And it's not like she married. Joe, Joe Smoe, you know, she married Steph Curry. So anything that she would ever want to do career wise, most likely she will always be outshadowed by this man.
00:31:39
TWISPOD
And that's why I said what we see her doing is her hobbies and hopefully her passions because, know,
00:31:44
TWISPOD
that career boat is probably, you know, she's, she's a wife and, and a mother and she's married to one of the best that ever did it in terms of basketball.
00:31:53
shatara
What do you do with
00:31:54
TWISPOD
So I, I kind of feel for and I think maybe she said too much. And like she said, you know, some some of that talk is for therapists. um But I think being honest, she was being honest. That's, that's a real thing.
00:32:08
TWISPOD
She, she gave up part of her dream to be with this man.
00:32:08
shatara
that? She's like, where does that go? but what do you do with that she's like and where where does that go Like, what do you do with that? yeah yeah she's And she said, you want kids.
00:32:17
shatara
At one point, she's like, I don't want kids. like I don't even really want kids. Like, of course, she's enjoying parenthood and loving all of it. But looking back at what you thought you saw yourself going and things took a whole nother backseat to his career and having kids and not to say that she couldn't have got there at all.
00:32:33
shatara
So somebody had responded and said, you know, oh, wow, it's funny to see people, even people with money still find a way to complain. And I just thought to myself, that was some that was a broke man that said that.
00:32:46
TWISPOD
and Exactly. Someone that don't have it. and And a very shallow way of thinking because money does not yeah always equate to happiness. It's more of convenience, but it's not it's not automatically happy.
00:32:46
shatara
That was little hate man.
00:32:58
TWISPOD
So I I feel for her and I'm and I hope that she has the support that she needs because that's that'll work on you.
00:33:07
shatara
Then they, then they pointed out that she was on, uh, what does that show? Uh, the real talk, the real talk with Gina, my, and, um, you know,
00:33:16
TWISPOD
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:33:16
shatara
all those girls and they start pulling out all these clips now and they have, you know, some nice looking guy comes out and like serves them cocktails and he has no shirt on and he has body and everybody's all like, Ooh, you know, and she's like covers her face and takes the cocktail and they're getting on her for that.
00:33:17
TWISPOD
Oh, that's back in the day because that show don't even exist no more.
00:33:34
shatara
Like clearly she was acting like she wanted to take off her wedding ring, blah, blah, blah, blah. And it's just like, listen here, just like I just said, like I'm a married woman, Tyler Lepley, like, wow.
00:33:45
shatara
We got eyes all day, every day.
00:33:48
shatara
And that's really just all that really was. Leave that girl alone. But I do agree with the young lady who said she's a prime example of the fact that all women need to have their whole phase. Now, when I say ho, I'm not saying you really need to be promiscuous in that sense, but in some way, what you have a phase where you're doing what you want to do.
00:34:01
TWISPOD
go. I agree with you.
00:34:05
TWISPOD
I agree with you. ah you We don't have to call it. We can call it a whole phase, I guess. But yeah. And I actually say that for women that are newly divorced. that at that And I call it the whole phase.
00:34:16
TWISPOD
Not necessarily coming out here to be a hoe, but you really have to understand who you are that and that stage in your life.
00:34:19
shatara
Do what you want.
00:34:24
TWISPOD
Without the rules, without people telling, you know, that that part of it. Without... the marriage part. So I always say, you know, enjoy, enjoy that phase of getting to know who you are as a sexual being, as, as a, as a woman and your feminine stage, all of that.
00:34:37
shatara
in The new you. Right. Confidence, growth, wisdom. You're in a whole nother era. But if you've never had that at all,
00:34:50
shatara
And just jumped right into being married. Like you already know, like, okay, Dick is good, but I only know one.
00:35:00
shatara
I'm just saying. so So I'm sure there's some, somebody's soon to be mother-in-law or the mother of, because women can be so judgmental. Even I remember getting like judgmental eyes from like a boyfriend's mother, like looking back at it. Now look back at it. Like you got a lot of nerve.
00:35:17
shatara

00:37:54

She's funny. She's a comic. She is a content creator. And she snagged herself some Cam Newton. And I do have to confess that her response, like her clap back, like when she first got pregnant, and she was like, you know, you have all the women saying it couldn't have been couldn't have been me She's like, you right.
00:38:11
shatara

00:38:26
TWISPOD
I didn't know she had Oh.
00:38:29

So he made an announcement on Tamron Hall. So it was like, oh, you got eight babies? He was like, yeah, you know, we have a the ninth one. And she's, oh, got ninth one on the way? And he was like, he already here. They were like, people in the audience were like, do we clap
00:38:47
shatara

00:38:57
shatara
listen here, it's giving, it's giving.
00:39:02
shatara
What's my man from Wildin' Out?
00:39:05
TWISPOD
say Yes. it's It's giving... Right. What's his name? God damn it. I can see his face.
00:39:17
shatara
Why can't we say his name? What is it about getting on this show? We talk so much. And when it comes to...
00:39:21
TWISPOD
la What is his name? Mariah Carey's old, old dude.
00:39:26
shatara
Somebody's yelling at the TV right now. Nick Cannon.
00:39:31
shatara
He's awesome. Maybe because we don't have babies by him. We forgot his name. Just giving Nick Cannon.
00:39:36
TWISPOD
He ain't my baby daddy.
00:39:39
shatara
um And then sometime I feel like I can't really speak much because my daddy has many, many kids. So...
00:39:44
TWISPOD
But your daddy had wives along with those kids. You know, I'm always pushed back on that.
00:39:50
shatara
was He was a married man.
00:39:52
TWISPOD
Like, it's a difference. Like, and, you know, no, no, no disrespect to the baby mothers, but this man has got on his own show and, you know, pretty much said how afraid he was of marriage, but it's okay with making ah broken homes.
00:39:54
shatara
He was a married man.
00:40:12
TWISPOD
I just, I don't get it
00:40:13
shatara
oh that's a tough, that's tough right there. so
00:40:17
TWISPOD
How tough is it though? Like how tough is that you, it's okay to make babies, but it's not okay to make a home with this woman.
00:40:27
TWISPOD
and you And it doesn't even have to be about the paper, you know, bad and married him but but there's a lot that comes along with a wife, making her a wife, you know, i was as opposed to making her the mother of your child.
00:40:28
shatara
That's tough. Like, ugh.
00:40:37
shatara
Oh, I know. yeah so but
00:40:43
shatara
That's a big, that's a big deal. Let's all have the same last name and all be under the roof and
00:40:46
TWISPOD
Because by the time if you're doing it right and you're sitting down and we talk about wills and trust and um um power of attorneys, all of these, all these things, if you're going to do, if you're doing it the right way, you're going to do all those things.
00:41:01
TWISPOD
You might as well marry this person.
00:41:04
shatara
You might as well.
00:41:06
TWISPOD
But, you know, I know.
00:41:08
shatara
You can get out of marriage, you can't get out of kids. So if you're going to have a kid with somebody, you might as well get married.
00:41:12
TWISPOD
That's what, exactly.
00:41:14
TWISPOD
you know, it's easier to get out of a marriage than it is. I mean, okay, but you know, to each his own.
00:41:22
shatara
yeah, to each zone.
00:41:22
TWISPOD
and And as long as he takes care of them, and I'm sure he's a great father, I've not heard that he's not, then so be it, so be it.
00:41:23
shatara
point yeah two whichches um
00:41:31
shatara
Yeah, that that's, it was seven. So that's seven different homes to visit.
00:41:37
TWISPOD
Oof. That's a lot to do on them holidays. Like, well, you have to pick one.
00:41:42
shatara
That's like Nick Cannon, like.
00:41:44
TWISPOD
yeah And that's, that's what I think about is, you know, kids are river are resilient, but how, you know, those broken homes, that's you doing it consciously on purpose.
00:41:57
shatara
But then do you speak on the woman to say, if you knew that there were nine before you, how do you end up getting caught up?
00:42:05
TWISPOD
Well, they but both.
00:42:06
shatara
you hold the woman gotta hold the woman accountable too.
00:42:07
TWISPOD
Both are equally responsible for that.
00:42:10
TWISPOD
that's That's, you know, the woman that wants to be in that position. Obviously, she wants to be in that position.
00:42:17
TWISPOD
And the man that that makes it so.
00:42:21
shatara
Yeah, yeah. I guess i if you're gonna say I'm the ninth, Then at the least lifestyle, at least at least be, be up there with it. If, if, if you're going to say you're the ninth, don't be like, you know, he work at target and we trying to figure it out.
00:42:40
TWISPOD
Well, I mean, she yeah if you're going do it, Do it the Cam Newton way.
00:42:43
shatara
that's the plan. Go big, go big, honey. You know, don't, he got the, um, he's trying to save $30 on his insurance.
00:42:48
shatara
So he has a tracker from, um,
00:42:50
TWISPOD
Stop. Cam's a fine specimen of a man.
00:42:53
shatara
from Daikon. he's He's unique. I want to say that about him.
00:42:57
TWISPOD
Yeah, he's unique.
00:42:58
TWISPOD
I think he's a Taurus.
00:43:00
shatara
I like his whole, but that the the whole mad kids and not marriage is just like, ugh.
00:43:07
TWISPOD
Like, how are you going be that big and be afraid of marriage, but have all these kids? How'd that work?
00:43:12
shatara
Because there's a piece of a grown man, Marcus, that's broken inside.
00:43:17
shatara
One golden star for Marcus.
00:43:20
shatara
Anyway, Tyrese Gibson was booked into Georgia jail for animal cruelty.
00:43:24
shatara
Did you hear about it?
00:43:25
TWISPOD
I heard about it. Was he beating the dogs or what was going on?
00:43:28
shatara
His dog killed the neighbor's dog.
00:43:35
TWISPOD
Those are, man, you ever see a King, you know what a King Corso look like?
00:43:37
shatara
Yeah. And he said, they're banned. You don't even see them much. And then he was apparently out of town. So somebody said he was out in Dubai talking about he's on a runaway trip. But really, they told him, you need to get you your dog taken care of or there's goingnna be a warrant for your arrest. So he had to turn himself in when he came back only to find out that the neighbor's dog, the neighbor came home and found his dog dead in the driveway.
00:43:59
shatara
So I will say, Tyrese said, and he said, I had no idea I would ever wake up. to this nightmare and I know the family must feel the same way to them. Please know that my heart is broken for you.
00:44:10
shatara
I am praying for you and your healing for your beloved pet who never deserved this. I remain committed to facing this matter with honesty, responsibility, and compassion. So I'm sorry for this.
00:44:21
shatara
This is a sad story.
00:44:23
TWISPOD
It is And you know i just I like Tyrese Ever since he was singing with the Coca-Cola On the bus But if Trouble don't follow this He the real Trouble man If Trouble don't follow this man

00:44:51
TWISPOD
He really is. They made a whole thing after him. Because I heard he he he was supposed to turn himself in. So I've heard i heard he did not. he He failed to do that.
00:45:00
TWISPOD
Now there's a warrant out, right?
00:45:00
shatara
He came back. No, he came back from out of town and he did turn himself
00:45:04
shatara

TWISPOD

00:45:32
shatara
How are you going to jail over a damn dog? Isn't that terrible?
00:45:36
TWISPOD
It is, and I hope he figured that shit out. Please.
00:45:39
shatara
All right. So Alicia Keys and Swiss Beats, they figured it out. So apparently there was rumors of them getting a divorce and she caught him cheating. And even I heard that she had caught him cheating with Lala. Did you hear that one?
00:45:52
shatara
um ah Yeah, so everybody was like, well, you know, the how you get them is how you lose them. Because that's what you got.
00:45:57
TWISPOD
but i it who cook cause Those are my people because Don't I always say that Don't I always say that
00:46:01
shatara
Well, everybody was going in. Well, guess what? They have faced the rumors with a video celebrating their anniversary, dancing and bugging out, giggling with each other.
00:46:15
shatara
And he a he he he said, trouble in paradise where?
00:46:20
shatara
That's how you responded to everything.
00:46:21
TWISPOD
okay. You know, cause I'm, ah you know, I, I don't, you know, we have this conversation all the time.
00:46:22
shatara
was like, whatever, they were out. Bring it.
00:46:29
TWISPOD
I like Alicia Keys. I like her music. I think she's extremely talented, but ain't no way you go have the wife come up there and be like, she was the last to know. Remember beats? The first wife was like,
00:46:42
TWISPOD
Yeah. Like he was taking on Trish. She was like, clearly we were married and we were together. I didn't know until, you know, and then the money came in, I guess he must've paid and then they all went on vacation. But I will, I'll never forget that, that part, like Alicia, that's, if there's one thing,
00:47:02
TWISPOD
I have a big, I don't, I just, I don't like that. I don't like for a woman to be when you clearly, you know, yes, it's both their fault. But if you know, it's a married man, we don't do married men.
00:47:15
TWISPOD
Just a woman that does married men.
00:47:19
TWISPOD
You do marry, like you do marry men.
00:47:22
TWISPOD
I don't, we probably, I'm not going to vibe real
00:47:27
shatara
That's shady. that's That's a shady thing. That's a shady, like, little box-dabbery.
00:47:29
TWISPOD
a That's who she was She was she was the other woman And clawed her way Into being the second wife
00:47:40
shatara
Right. And then the saying was like, oh, you took her from, and i and where I stood was, there's no such thing as taking no man from a woman. There's no such thing.
00:47:49
TWISPOD
Correct Correct Correct Mmhmm
00:47:49
shatara
No such thing. She can turn her phone around and say, listen, I'm respecting the request, but look, this is the missed calls. He's called me seven times day, just so you see. So pilot there's no such thing, right?
00:48:02
shatara
Anywho, speaking no such thing, LeBron...
00:48:06
shatara
had a big plot twist and all the fans were thinking that he was going to announce that he was retiring.
00:48:14
shatara
Like it was nothing but Hennessy ad and they're doing a business deal together. It's his partnership with Hennessy. So wait, listen.
00:48:27
shatara
So this one guy, so he has a lawsuit. This one gentleman by the name of Andrew Garcia, He said that he went, because he thought that it was all leading up to him announcing this big retirement, he went and bought tickets.
00:48:45
shatara
He paid $865.66 in tickets.
00:48:51
shatara
And he called LeBron a fraud but and it was deception. And he said, um yeah, he he wants it he wants his money back. So he's literally, he has he has a case with Ticketmaster that he's saying LeBron needs to pay for these tickets because now they don't they're nott they're not even worth anything. He's like, i wouldn't even purchase them if he wasn't going to retire, plain and simple.
00:49:12
shatara
He feels scammed. This is just funny to me.
00:49:15
TWISPOD
He'll probably win that one though.
00:49:17
shatara
You think you owe
00:49:17
TWISPOD
He'll probably win that lawsuit. Yeah, i get his money back.
00:49:21
shatara
But it was a teaser commercial.
00:49:22
TWISPOD
If he pursues it.
00:49:23
shatara
Like, come on. People were just laughing. took it so serious. Like, was supposed to show you how people are really invested.
00:49:32
shatara
And it was just a Hennessy commercial.
00:49:34
shatara
And people were like, oh my God, he's retiring.
00:49:37
shatara
Well, I know we got to get to woke, but did you hear Bad Bunny is going to be performing at the Super Bowl?
00:49:41
TWISPOD
Oh my gosh. Good.
00:49:46
TWISPOD
So first I thought, because I heard that Bad Bunny.
00:49:46
shatara
I'm sorry. Oh, my God.
00:49:52
TWISPOD
So my my question is, is he speaking in English? Because I thought
00:50:00
TWISPOD
i thought I heard that he is not coming back to the U.S. and he's not going to be speaking English.
00:50:06
shatara
So they asked him to come perform at the Super Bowl.
00:50:07
TWISPOD
No speaking English.
00:50:09
shatara
And i was just like, what?
00:50:12
shatara
perro escutar la plumma
00:50:16
shatara
And his whole thing was, i don't know about that because I'm nervous for my people and ice. So, you know, first thing I thought was like, it's a setup. Oh shit.
00:50:28
shatara
They get Bad Bunny, the top reggaeton performer right now, come to the stadium, wherever it is. And you know, the Latino fans are going to be there and ice will be waiting.
00:50:40
shatara
It's a setup. They're gonna get you all to the dome. That's the first thing I thought. its And he's and he's he's on the same page. Like you
00:50:46
TWISPOD
So is he going to perform or is he not going to perform?
00:50:50
shatara
he's going to perform, but guess what? Because of this, they have come up with, who is this? um I want to say the All-American Halftime Show.
00:51:00
shatara
There's another halftime
00:51:01
TWISPOD
I heard by Charlie, uh, Turning Point. So Charlie Kirk's widow is they're putting on their own show to counter, I guess the bad bunny show.
00:51:09
shatara
The All-American Halftime
00:51:12
TWISPOD
It's going to be a whole mess in February.
00:51:14
shatara
Show. Just by calling it the All-American Show, that that is like, is it offensive? It's just their way of saying like, it's almost like they said, no, blue lives matter.
00:51:25
TWISPOD
Yeah. Well, well, ah you know, their beef is like, it's not an American artist that's performing, you know, bad bunny is Puerto Rican.
00:51:31
shatara
So what? So is what?
00:51:33
TWISPOD
Which is, which is, i merit but okay, whatever.
00:51:33
shatara
Excuse me? yeah Yes, in Puerto Rico. But what is to care?
00:51:39
TWISPOD
You know, have you seen recently Shakira has, she has said that, you know, coming forward with her heritage. So she's, she's claiming she's a black woman. Did you see that? That her um ancestors are from somewhere in Africa, but she put her grandfather.
00:51:56
TWISPOD
So she says, you know, I'm coming, I'm coming forward as a black woman.
00:51:59
shatara
She's coming out to identify as black.
00:52:00
TWISPOD
Yup. She's, she's identifying as black.
00:52:04

00:52:50
TWISPOD
I think his videos are dope. His videos are pretty, are, you know, artsy kind of dope, but, um,
00:52:57
shatara
No, no, it's not for me. No, what happened to havebb a Daddy Yankee?

00:54:03
TWISPOD
I was watching Joe Rogan the other day. Don't really watch the show too much. um Sometimes his his shows are like three, four hours long sometimes. But he had a guest on a couple of weeks ago by the name of Greg Brayden.
00:54:17
TWISPOD
And Greg Brayden, I know because he wrote a book called The Divine Matrix about, oh man, that book is probably like almost 30 years old And he was basically, the book is about where everything is energy.
00:54:29
TWISPOD
Kind of the talk that we're talking now. Well, this guy, Greg Braden, he wrote about it years and years ago. So um he's someone I watch on Gaia, Gaia Station, you know, when I want to get into my spirituality. So he links science with spirituality. And this is this is a white guy that really does his homework. So I was interested to see him on the Joe Rogan show. And he's He spoke about the structures on the moon and Mars, which suggests that there is this ancient civilization from like 50,000 years ago. So he talks about um NASA's Clementine mission.
00:55:09
TWISPOD
And supposedly during that mission, there were images taken on the moon of oh of civilizations, angles and all of these things that could not be found on the moon.
00:55:23
TWISPOD
And don't know if you remember, there used to be a time and then, oh, there's a face on the moon and always there's this and all they zoom in on it. Like, oh no, it's just a, it's just a crater. It's just a rock. So
00:55:33
TWISPOD
We are now in this age of opening the information and knowing that there was information that was covered up. So ah it was also said that during the Cold War, the U.S. s and the Soviet Union at the time, they got together and they made all these discoveries on the moon of these andam ah anomalies, so like buildings and structures.
00:55:57
TWISPOD
And the rumor is that it was kept hidden. They decided to like keep all of this. ah you know That's why they went into these treaties and they made these decisions to kind of keep it out of the public eye.
00:56:11
TWISPOD
And but China more recently, has been doing their own because they're not tied by these agreements. And so there is this idea that oh what was on, there was human civilizations about 50,000 years ago, tying to the Anunnaki story. We can get into that another show.
00:56:32
TWISPOD
And some indigenous civilizations that were on the moon, but humans from 50,000, you know, 50,000 plus years ago.
00:56:42
TWISPOD
So ah I thought it was really interesting because this information is kind of, it's funny that Brayden wrote this book about 30 years ago and now this information is coming back up.
00:56:54
TWISPOD
People are exploring it. It's coming back up. So I don't know if you have any thoughts on that. I just thought it was interesting um since we did do a show last week about ah open open contact with extraterrestrials and
00:57:08
shatara
Yeah. So um I was looking at this. That's the first thing I thought I was like, Oh, we kind of talked about this last time. um And just some of the some of the thoughts on the fact that we are not the only ones here.
00:57:20
shatara
And there's so much more information that we're not being told. So I always think of like, okay, are we supposed to be scared?
00:57:27
shatara
Are we supposed to be welcoming? um And then also think about the fact that historically, there's so many other civilizations and cultures that have already tapped into a lot of this. So for some reason, i'm thinking about the Mayan culture.
00:57:40
shatara
And I just know like they built their pyramids close to the sun.
00:57:41
TWISPOD
The Aztecs before that. Mm-hmm.
00:57:45
shatara
And their theories were very spiritual in that. um African culture, you look at Greek mythology biting off of that. um I know we're looking into, like ah i want to say, Asia, South Korea.
00:58:00
shatara
A lot of cultures have a history of being in touch with other earth, I want to say otherworldly.
00:58:10
shatara
possibilities. it So this this is like nothing new.
00:58:11
TWISPOD
Yeah. Yeah, and and and exactly. So i you know, this is this is my jam. This is one of the things I really get into. I i really get into ah ancient advanced civilizations, learning about the Sumerians and, you know, talking about the Anunnaki and these ancient texts, which, um you know, it's really interesting because it all suggests that humans or the human race,
00:58:37
TWISPOD
there's so many different stories of where humans were ah manipulated or used to like assist in the development of these vast civilizations prior to the civilizations that we know about or that we read about in our books.
00:58:53
TWISPOD
and And just as you said, there is, or has been this suppression of knowledge across the board, which is now being kind of chipped away at.
00:59:04
TWISPOD
And the idea of human potential and oh our DNA, waking up our DNA. you know, we talk about these things, ah our but yeah how our DNA can be like an antenna and how our brain and our heart and the universe is all connected. And this is what Brayden, he talks about this, the energy connection and the interconnectedness of science with spirituality, which, you know, like I said, that's, I'm in the middle of that. That's my jam.
00:59:33
TWISPOD
And when we talk about that, so I just thought it was really, again, I thought it was really interested and I know we'll do more shows and, you know, do more segments about it because it's, it's slowly unfolding. I think as we get closer to this open contact and disclosing information that was, that was hidden and accelerating our knowledge and learning more about who we are by, you know, You don't know where you're going until you know where you came from.
01:00:01
TWISPOD
um And this is happening more in these in these circles. So really interesting.
01:00:06
shatara
Can I just, i I was looking up Greg Bradens and I have like a quote from him that came up and I thought it was, this so quote was interesting. So to create reality, focus beyond the outcome as if it has already happened.
01:00:20
TWISPOD
sit on that for a sec.
01:00:22
shatara
The great challenges of life appear to us when and only when we have everything we need to survive and heal from the experience. That's a word.
01:00:31
TWISPOD
and Say that again.
01:00:34
shatara
The great challenges of life appear to us when and only when we have everything we need to survive and heal from the experience.
01:00:43
TWISPOD
I truly believe that. Good stuff. Yep.
01:00:47
TWISPOD
you got to take it in. You got to, yeah, it that that's something you have to say a couple of times to really understand it.
01:00:52
TWISPOD
But yes, you know, so, and, and this is why I say why we have to look at our challenges as opportunities because they come up at a time when it's an opportunity to heal through it.
01:01:02
shatara
yes. yeah Yeah, it's a vehicle.
01:01:09
TWISPOD
he To get you to the next level.
01:01:11
shatara
Yes, hardship is usually a vehicle and sometime it's really your perspective you take on in that storm, but you've learned to take a different perspective in that storm because of another storm you was just in.
01:01:22
shatara
So you got to take something from every storm. Either the circle goes, either you're going through something, you just got out of something, or you're about to go through something.
01:01:30
shatara
Just got out of something, in something, going through something. It's like a, it's a circle. So when things are good, not to say, look behind you, something's coming, but it's possible.
01:01:38
TWISPOD
Mm-hmm. But perspective is everything. Mm-hmm.
01:01:43
shatara
Where's your mind at? So as if, like you said, treat the outcome as if it has already happened.
01:01:47
shatara
that's That's a great thing. So it's like times may be,
01:01:49
TWISPOD
Yeah, that gives hope. That gives you something to look forward to.
01:01:52
shatara
Yeah. This is where I'm at now, but treat it as it's almost like the law of attraction in many ways, kind of vi vibrate a lot higher than the present.
01:01:57
TWISPOD
Absolutely. Mm-hmm.
01:02:01
TWISPOD
Then what's your, yeah, because you you are not your situation or your circumstances.
01:02:06
TWISPOD
Mm-hmm. Good stuff.
Privacy in Relationships and Digital Footprint
01:02:08
TWISPOD
All right. And now? Mm-hmm.
01:02:11
shatara
Well, oh, we're going to go to the D. I'm like, we're going to the D. We're going to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of Oz. Mm-hmm. Okay, I think I like this one here.
01:02:25
shatara
He wants me to film us. Oh, wow.
01:02:27
TWISPOD
So if you have a question, Yeah. Mm-hmm.
01:02:30
shatara
Did I forget something? Oh, yes. oh y'all If you have a question for the Weekend D report, leave us a voicemail. Go to our link tree. link tree um and Then you got your little twist pod. Then you scroll to the bottom and you leave a voice message. That's also very cool that we can hear you all.
01:02:44
shatara
Give us a little voice message. Tell us ah little question. Give us a little info.
01:02:48
TWISPOD
Mm-hmm. little something-something.
01:02:49
shatara
Put us in the mix.
01:02:51
shatara
I almost forgot. I almost forgot. Okay. So we go. He wants me to film us for his private vault, but I'm terrified of leaks. Oh, wow.
01:03:03
shatara
That's all got. No, let me keep going. um How do I set real consent rules? Or is this only rule, no camera? Huh. Or is the only rule, no camera?
01:03:15
TWISPOD
Well, that's interesting.
01:03:16
shatara
What do you think?
01:03:18
TWISPOD
So let me pull it out of my vault. Many, many moons ago, i remember I was with a gentleman. I'm gonna call him a gentleman. I'm give him that, but whatever. And i remember, you know, after after some time, he starts playing the audio of when he and I were together.
01:03:40
TWISPOD
Like, and it was, I mean, it was like we had Chick-fil-A or something and he's like starts playing. I'm like, and mind you, this was years and years and years ago. But the thought that it was recorded without my consent and that he had it on his phone.
01:03:59
TWISPOD
Luckily, it was only the audio. It wasn't a video, but it was only the audio. But when I say I was, I mean, I was, I was highly upset, but the thought that someone could have it in their control and do anything with it freaked me out. And this was before all this AI and everything else.
01:04:18
TWISPOD
I just could not believe it. So, I decided that that is something I would just never do. Me personally. I would just, you know, even if it was just for my enjoyment, it would just have to be on my phone.
01:04:34
TWISPOD
I could never, I would never have it on anybody else's, else's phone.
01:04:39
TWISPOD
That's just me. um Cause anything could happen. And then also i have seen, and I have been, I've been in situations where revenge porn was a thing.
01:04:52
TWISPOD
where someone, and it's, it's happened to a couple of people that I know personally and professionally where the video is leaked.
01:05:02
TWISPOD
It's used online. They've done, and this, again, this is before the whole outpouring of, of, of AI. And that was a thing. And just the vulnerability and just the assault that that woman felt because Her goodies was online and it was, it was virtually nothing that she could do about it.
01:05:24
TWISPOD
You know, and as it was one, it was revenge porn, you know, god they were together and then they're not together. And he puts it online that he had secretly, he had recorded them. She knew so about some of them and others she didn't know.
01:05:39
TWISPOD
And he made a whole library and posted it when you could post on Pornhub and put it up there.
01:05:49
TWISPOD
Yes. So, so I'm just thinking of that. Cause she's, she's saying I'm terrified of leaks. Well, that's probably your best instinct because trust no man, trust no one with that.
01:05:59
shatara
Okay, so right, right. So when she says he wants me to film us, there's no explanation or telling us who is he? Who is he to you?
01:06:09
shatara
Is he just, is this your husband? Is this your boyfriend? Is this somebody you're just getting it in with?
01:06:15
shatara
But be terrified leaks, I'm assuming that it's somebody that you trust just enough to sleep with, but not enough to have the video. so And you know then the other part is, like you said, if you're going do a camera, like keep it as keep it on your phone.
01:06:30
shatara
keep it on your make it make it your camera.
01:06:32
TWISPOD
Cause he wants it for his private vault. so I'm assuming on his phone, he wants to be able to put a little lock on there security where he can only, he can access it. That bullshit.
01:06:42
shatara
Yeah, no. yeah Yeah. So I would say, yeah, do the no camera. And then if he takes pictures anyway, I'm like, I'm i'm sure there's some pictures of me out there somewhere. Did I look okay? I promise you.
01:06:54
shatara
motherfuckers are scheming me out. Yeah. I called a skeever before. Like, hold on a minute. So, and yeah, you want to be able to say no.
01:07:02
shatara
You want to be able to say no. No to that.
01:07:06
TWISPOD
Yeah, girl, I don't, I don't know. Consent rules. I mean, it's the the only rule is either you're going to consent or you're not. There's, there's no in between. And the the fact that he wants it so that he can access it has me, ah has me a little like, no, unless you don't, you know, I mean, it's, if that's your thing and you know, you, you don't care then by all means, but I think you would care eventually.
01:07:22
shatara
Now, one thing, if I'm thinking about
01:07:33
shatara
Right. If they're, let's say, a married couple and they do role play and they're like having fun, then I would definitely say like, yeah, like add it to the vault. Like, so what? They probably have a sex chamber room and they have a whole good time. Then charge it to the game.
01:07:46
shatara
But if that's not the case, then no.
01:07:48
TWISPOD
But if that's not the case, right.
01:07:49
shatara
Yeah, that's ah like if if the level of kinky is not there, then like, nah, because now think about it. Yeah, if you have fun with sex and you and your partner have all types of shit going on, I think of them the movie Friday, the second one where Mike Epps was in it and Uncle Elroy with Kim Whitley and they had a whole sex room and they had a whole...
01:08:10
shatara
swinging and everything he was like what the fuck is my uncle into it was funny they definitely have a vault of videos that couple oh they were they were off the chain so but if that's not how y'all are going then no you're asking because you're terrified don't
01:08:26
TWISPOD
yeah and that's the wording that you used so andin no just don't just say no you don't even have to be terrified just say no mm-hmm
01:08:33
shatara
Isn't that crazy? Isn't that crazy that you you trust somebody enough to sleep with them? Because clearly that's, but then, but that cant don't you pull no camera out I don't trust you. You might leak it.
01:08:44
shatara
that That sucks that you don't trust that person that much. Then you shouldn't sleep with them then.
01:08:50
TWISPOD
i don't I don't think it goes that far. like You can sleep with them if you if you want, but just like no cameras.
01:08:55
TWISPOD
like No, come over here and get the real thing. like we go with this This a once in a lifetime. This is a once at a time. You never get this back like that.
01:09:02
shatara
Come on, get Come and get it. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
01:09:06
TWISPOD
Yeah. Come on, get. Get.
01:09:13
TWISPOD
yeah Yeah, so i think I think that's the advice, chick, um girly.
01:09:16
shatara
that don't Don't do it. Reconsider.
01:09:19
TWISPOD
Friend, no, don't do it. I don't, yeah, no camera rule. Just have no camera rule.
01:09:24
shatara
No, would just say no. Like I said, if y'all already are role-playing and have a good time and that's what it is, then charge it to the game.
01:09:32
shatara
Go for it. i don't even know why you're asking us. But if that's not the case, don't that's not a good way to start.
01:09:39
TWISPOD
I agree. Okay, yeah.
01:09:40
shatara
That sucks. But then wait a minute. Time out.
01:09:44
shatara
Because then you think about it.
01:09:48
shatara
Guys send dick pics, right?
01:09:50
shatara
And the one thing about dick pics, the one thing I mean,
01:09:51
TWISPOD
Even the ones you don't even ask for. um You probably don't ask for 90% of the dick pics that you get.
01:09:57
shatara
Right? And to me, that's confidence. when When you get a dick pic, right? And then the one thing about dick pics is that women, that's one thing we do. We share them. We show somebody.
01:10:08
TWISPOD
Sure, if it's worth showing.
01:10:10
shatara
if this were if that's not your If that's not my man, it's not my man.
01:10:16
shatara
That's my man. If it's not my man, then I remember coming to work many a days and being like, oh, thank you.
01:10:21
shatara
Like, girl, see you later. Thank you that. Oh, all right.
01:10:26
TWISPOD
Wait, why recently?
01:10:27
TWISPOD
i i You know, you can search your phone, right? So I just, it was just for fun, shits and giggles, I put in penis. I was like, oh my God, I got a whole penis wall. Penis elbows. Penises. What kind of penises?
01:10:41
shatara
Let me tell you, when Chris Brown leaked to my screensaver on my computer.
01:10:43

01:12:38
shatara
Okay, what's your jam?
Nostalgic Reflections and Community Engagement
01:12:40
TWISPOD
can we get into that? This is my jam. all right. I'm going to try to get through this without being emotional because this song, I'm just, I get emotional.
01:12:52
TWISPOD
So my jam this week is Hey Young World. And it is a song from Slick Rick. It came out in 1988. Let me tell you, i am just aging fine like wine. I'm just fine like wine because 88,
01:13:08
shatara
Dave, you can go.
01:13:09
TWISPOD
Okay. I mean, I was like, I was, i was there and I was really feeling. So this song, this was on the great adventures of slick Rick. So the song Man, it just, it was what came out as narrative rap. So remember, like, back in the day, like, rap music used to tell a story, you know? And who picked up the ball was Biggie. I got a story to tell.
01:13:30
TWISPOD
Nas is great with the stories, the soliloquies, and even Kendrick Lamar. But when you go back to 1988, Slick Rick with Hey Young World, it was such a mature...
01:13:44
TWISPOD
song because it was socially conscious you know yeah we had we had don't think gangster rap was too was coming was too much around that time it was more about bravado you know talking about yourself talking about the things that you had and then here comes and you know even Slick Rick he had
01:14:00
TWISPOD
I remember that on that album, he had, well, no, was that Lottie Dottie? Yes, that was Lottie Dottie and what's the other one? um The show.
01:14:13
TWISPOD
And I remember our grandmother, God rest her soul, Nanny, I wanted that album. I wanted the Slick Rick album. So she took me to Third Avenue in the Bronx to...
01:14:20
shatara
like Oh, shooting Bronx?
01:14:23
TWISPOD
Yeah, because that was, um it was, I don't want to say it was Crazy Eddie's. It might have been Crazy Eddie's.
01:14:28
TWISPOD
But i I got the album and the album was like $7. Maybe it was $7 or $6 or whatever. And then, you know, had to play the record in the back. And then it was so, it had, you know, curse words and he was talking about pussy and all this stuff. So I had to turn it down real low and listen to the album like real close.
01:14:48
TWISPOD
But then he did this young world, you know? So I, you know, you used to slick with being like, you know, real slick.
01:14:55
TWISPOD
Plus he had that British accent. It was, you know, all cool. And then he comes out with young world, man. And, you know, I heard somebody say it was like, it's a song that really teaches, but not from a pedestal. It's more like from the stoop, you know, he really sounded like the the elder speaking to the youth and just even some of the words, you know,
01:15:16
TWISPOD
Man, I get emotional because it reminds us. I'm very it's a very nostalgic song. And it reminds me of a period of time like life when, you know, we were younger.
01:15:27
TWISPOD
We had our grandparents and being in New York at that time. And just listening to this and listening to what he was talking about. He was really like talking to the youth, you know, you know, you didn't know don't steal and rob and why you at it. Go get a suit for a job.
01:15:44
TWISPOD
You know, you're acting like you know, these words is demanded. It just have some understanding.
01:15:49
TWISPOD
Society is a weak excuse for a man.
01:15:51
shatara
Because you your family cry.
01:15:51
TWISPOD
Rap is trying to take the stand.
01:15:53
TWISPOD
Believe it or not, the world still, God still shines on you. He loves you and he watch you as you grew. Plus happy days of a little child. That's true. But folks your age don't act like you do.
01:16:09
TWISPOD
Hey, young world, the world is yours. And it, you know, young world, the world is yours. Young world.
01:16:18
shatara
Hey, Mr. Big. Oh, don't you look fly.
01:16:22
TWISPOD
Oh, my, my, my. You been fighting again and you forgot why. You know, to take a moment as it gets me.
01:16:33
shatara
oh Oh, that was good.
01:16:36
shatara
work is Circus in the US, right? Is he still here? Do you have to go back to the morning?
01:16:40
TWISPOD
I don't, yeah, I think he still performs in the U.S. because he was, I thought he was deported for a while and then he came back and don't know, do you remember this? I know you remember this song because
