Starting point is 00:04:36 like maybe i'll be going for two months like what if i'm what if i'm out there killing it and i book some right because i bought a one-way ticket it was cheap cheap since let's talk about how you do you ever buy round trips no i always do it they they they're cheaper that way it's cheaper to buy a round-trip ticket since you you don't pay for your flights that's why you don't know fuck you I, listen, the way Sprint, or no, the way Spirit is set up, you buy a one-way. It'd be like $20. But then you gotta pay for, like, bringing your purse on the plane. I don't bring nothing.

You know, the unofficial expert.
Starting point is 00:14:05 Make it as short and cute as possible. I'll make it short and cute. I grew up, you know, secularly and then religiously. So, you know, once my family turned over and got into the church, you know, we was all in. Well, but how did your family, what happened? Something happened and they were like, we got to pray. Yeah. What happened?
Starting point is 00:14:21 Well, my grandparents used to own a nightclub. And it was a family nightclub. My aunt was behind the counter making drinks and stuff. Your uncle was dancing on stage. My uncle was the bouncer. My mother was the DJ. My Mother Spins. I've never heard this ever.
Starting point is 00:14:37 Yeah, my mother DJ. I don't talk about it a lot because my mother's ashamed of me. Why? Because my mother wanted me to spin. And it was like, my mother's so upset with my ear. She's just like, she's the type of person. You don't have a good music ear? I have a good enough ear for what I like.
Starting point is 00:14:52 DJ Yams. I'm down with it. No, my mother was, because her name is Michelle Moore. They call her Mickey Moore. She also was on. Ooh, Mickey Moore. Yeah, she was also a radio DJ. so like and she spent so these are car m&m and she had eminent productions and all that so um
Starting point is 00:15:07 yeah my mother she's the same person that would get in the car with me like you know when i was in high school and i would drive my mother around to play and she's like you don't hear the levels you don't hear these levels this sound off this don't sound off to you it'd be like everything was a quiz it's like no i think it's fine this is what i'm talking about these levels is off in here and you got the narrative running down the street acting like you doing something you like I like this song and the bass
Starting point is 00:15:34 is bumping like what you mean it be the point like Ma just do whatever you want to the radio I don't even you know what I don't even want to listen to the radio here's a question that I have what the hell is treble like what is the treble control but you know it's like
Starting point is 00:15:50 so you have the bass you have the treble it's like I don't the treble like makes it it almost make it sound like you don't even know what treble is it's like i want to i don't it's a technical thing so i don't know like like that but i know i feel like when i turn it on here it bass will bring in more of the beat but the treble will sort of balance something somehow the speakers or something i don't know it's like it's listeners can y'all explain what treble is so you know i feel like we're gonna google this and really get off of me and it's dead.
Starting point is 00:16:19 That's true. Let's get back on it. So you had this bomb ass club and then I put this cantaloupe in my mouth. And then what happened that made them be like, we gotta go to church? Well, they're gonna hate me for this. I'm so sorry. I'm trying to do clean this here. No, you don't have to be clean.
Starting point is 00:16:35 I mean, you're eating a cantaloupe. I mean, that's clean. You gotta eat. We've never eaten on that podcast ever, so you're the first. That's not even what she was referring to. She was referring to them being mad at her for telling they business. I'm like spill that
Starting point is 00:16:50 they're not going to listen to this episode you're fine so my mother's side of the family was very I mean they grew up religiously but then they got into nightclubs and jazz and bars and all that and my father's mother
Starting point is 00:17:05 both my grandmothers were very involved raising me so I would go I would get handed off to my father's mother on the weekends because she wanted to take me to church and she wanted me to have that sort of background of being in church So I would go to church with all the time Wanted to be an usher
Starting point is 00:17:21 You wanted to be an usher? You wanted to be an usher You wanted to take people to their seats I liked how they marched around They had blazers on or what was the outfit? It was white on white on white It's all white And the only thing we would change that would have color
Starting point is 00:17:36 Is your hat and your glove So like on first Sundays it would be black hat Black glove because of communion Sunday Second Sunday would be gold Gold glove gold gloves i was doing jazz hands that's expensive we had emerald we emerald says you heard that that's like not green emerald that's sophisticated green it was you wanted to be a part of it and i just loved how like they would march around i loved how they hit those corners
Starting point is 00:18:02 real sharp did you uh behind their back and stomp did you ever do a praise dance in the church i call it holy ghost oh dude yeah i remember i when we had to get they were doing tongues And my grandmother, who eventually became a minister and went on to be a pastor, she was adamant about us speaking in tongues. What? Yeah, like, and I remember, I remember. Can you tell us what that feels like? Well, when you fake in the funk, it feels like nothing. Because you know what it is?
Starting point is 00:18:33 Like, I remember the first, like, when they started, they really wanted the young people to start speaking in tongues. So we would, sometimes we would have evening service. Evening service would be at our church. And sometimes we'd go to another church. And I remember when I was growing up, I could sneak home sometimes and not have to go to evening service because my aunt, even though my aunt's handicapped and has, my grandmother had German measles when she was carrying her. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:18:54 She was able, she was, was able to function enough to drive us back home and we would go watch him live in color. But she had German measles? My grandmother had German measles when she was carrying my aunt, so my aunt was born with brain damage and hearing impairment. But she drove y'all? She was, she got to the point where she was able to function. Oh wow.
Starting point is 00:19:09 She was able to function. Wow. She wanted to get y'all to where y'all need to go. She need to have my arm on here as an expert on how to really step up being handicapped. She didn't let that. They said she would never speak. They said she would never do it.
Starting point is 00:19:24 I mean, she has obvious limitations now, especially as she's getting older. She's always been hearing a pair of speeches slurred. Jackie. Jackie. She has brain damage. There's things that don't connect. She's never been able to live on her own.
Starting point is 00:19:35 She could drive, y'all ask. Y'all make sure y'all get there. She went to community college. She got her driver's license. At a certain point Her and I were like a little team Because I had my mind, my mind was growing As I was a kid and you know
Starting point is 00:19:48 She would execute whatever I need done Let's go here, let's go here And you know we sort of tag teamed So together we were like a 21 year old person Even though I was like 6 or 7 or 8 And you know Yamanika
Starting point is 00:20:04 So okay I feel like we gotta get to the dick I'm telling you this is what happens we have conversations my life I don't talk about a lot of things and you come to the plaque and you're like let me release there's so many things that people don't understand about me yeah but I feel like you're so open
Starting point is 00:20:21 like I feel like when I watch your social media videos like on Instagram you have a whole series about 90 Day Fiance which is a show that I didn't even know was a thing. No I didn't know about it until you had it on. And you know what and I want everybody to keep telling TLC that because I'm like y'all need to have
Starting point is 00:20:36 me on they do doing these reunions because who the fuck is watching who else is gonna get the tea like i get the tea no you know how many people that i know that say they started watching the show because of you yeah it's true they like yamaniki got me on this damn night and i need everybody and the thing about it is i get i still have to do the uh the reunion uh one because people like what happened i got busy but what the hell is this show so this is 30 and this is again And this is, again, all into the no dick. Okay. It ties in.
Starting point is 00:21:09 It ties in on the growth. Okay. Because there's a lot of, 90 Day Fiance is, you have people in the States who have fallen in love with people abroad. However they met them, they either went on a trip. Online or something. Mostly online. Yeah. And, you know, they get into these relationships.
Starting point is 00:21:26 They're very quick. People become impatient. You want to be around the person that you love all the time, right? Well, because the love is so brilliant. brand new. It's brand new. You want them there. So what happens is a lot of times people get hustled because they want the person here. They
Starting point is 00:21:42 have to marry that person for that person to stay here. They come here on a K-1 visa, which only gives you 90 days. A K-1 visa. We don't know what treble is, but we know what a K-1 visa is. K-1 visa gives you 90 days to come here, be engaged, and get married.
Starting point is 00:21:58 After that 90 days, if you haven't got married, that person has to go back. This is brilliant. yeah but it causes women to like not investigate even men i you know this is the 90 day fiance type of show like women and men are both making missteps yeah you know it's like catfish you know it's about also being thirsty and this is the thing that i don't like when you become the show is about thirst oh yeah the first levels are high but there's also like for as much as and i mean to say exploit is the wrong word but no i feel like that's what it is that's what it is they
Starting point is 00:22:30 want to come to this country and they want the visa. They exploit sometimes a person who is vulnerable. You see a lot of women who are like, you know, this one girl I call her March of Dimes. March of Dimes. March of Dimes. I think she had a cleft
Starting point is 00:22:46 lip that was fixed. Yikes. When I call her March of Dimes, it's more of like her mentality. Yo, you called her March of Dimes. She's the jar next to the cash register that you gotta put the extra change in. That's the rudest thing I heard today. this guy that was
Starting point is 00:23:02 really handsome. He's from Russia. I don't know a handsome Russian. Like, he be beating her or he emotionally... The next step is whipping her ass. Well, he's Russian. He's Russian. I don't want women to do this. She couldn't go to a...
Starting point is 00:23:17 He got pissed when she went to a bachelorette party. He got to stomp her sisters out. And you go, why would you put yourself in a situation like that? First of all, you live in... No disrespect to Texas. There's a lot of marginal bitches all throughout America, and I'm keeping it real. Yes, well, fuck, there's marginal people everywhere.
Starting point is 00:23:37 No, let me keep it real. Let me qualify what I'm saying. None of our listeners, they're just great at it. No, we probably got some marginal listeners, too. Wait, wait, wait, let me qualify before people get in the room and go, who the fuck is this? What I'm saying is, there are a lot of marginal subpar bitches that you can go anywhere and see that they got men that love them. Do you understand what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:23:57 Yes, yes. So there's no reason to say I can't get... I went to Kentucky one time, and I'm talking about they got farmers' cows getting married. What, the cows? Big bitches with no makeup, looking like they just came up the farm, where overalls got men that loved it. They'd be like, well, I reckon she sucks a mean dick. She sucks a mean cock.
Starting point is 00:24:18 You know what it is? When you look at a woman, you go, oh, this bitch ain't all of that. And then you go, oh, but this bitch knows she's all that, or she thinks she's all that. so what i think is like a lot of times we get as women we put so much of our value in what a man thinks of us yes i mean you know sydney not you but you know wow yams you gonna hit me hard you out here i like that i was with dick way before adrian i understand that but we're talking about now we're talking about right now right now we're talking about right now i get really confused about what you really want damn speak on it because let me let me turn up let me turn up

Well, you know what? I've been dressing up and doing all this shit for so long that it's just so hard to get out of it. Even as the brokest that I am, I still find a way.
Starting point is 00:25:46 I stay in rainbow. Like, I can dress this up. Like a mix and match. And, you know what, being who we view, like, I'm teasing because there's obviously there's all ranges of women who like different type of women. There's women that like, you know, maybe a butch woman, women that like a more feminine woman. I understand that. But at some point, we are still putting our value of who we are into how somebody receives us. Yes.
Starting point is 00:26:08 So what happened? So you were tired of doing that? I got into, and I think you all know, and without making it a big thing. But you always stay done, though. I never see you looking crazy. Oh, I look bad. Your wigs stay plucked with the concealer in the part.
Starting point is 00:26:24 Yes. I be on things when people do my wigs and stuff and I be like, alright, I'm going to keep this on a mannequin so I don't fuck this up. If you saw me, like my doorman, when I first moved into my building, they thought I was like some type of hooker

Pause the podcast. Pause the podcast and Google Oprah no makeup and then come back She's still a queen and she still has her

Starting point is 00:27:29 we don't know what fuckboy I'm talking about. No, I mean the listeners don't know. They don't need to know because he knows. But, you know what I'm saying? And that's no disrespect to the listeners. I love y'all, but I've gotten to a good place with him. I'm cool. Yes, you have.
Starting point is 00:27:45 I'm proud of you. I think he's hilarious and, you know, he's going to be a rising star and they don't have to be all about that. Oh, wow, you didn't work through it with your therapist. Wow, you really walked through it. No, it's not even... This No Dick 2017 put me in a different perspective because I'll be honest with you.
Starting point is 00:28:02 That particular situation, coupled with other situations in my life, really, I was like, how come I get so broken every time something doesn't work out with a dude and then I get upset and it's like, oh, I haven't even made an assessment of this dude. whether I should have been even dealing with this dude. Well, sis, you knew that.
Starting point is 00:28:19 No, I didn't. No, when I, you gotta remember, I was friends with this person. Oh, yes, yes, yes. I do remember. You know, and that's why I said they have to know my narrative. My narrative is, I didn't, I lost my virginity at 27. I grew up religiously. I lost it at 27. 27? Wow. Yvonne Orji
Starting point is 00:28:35 still has hers. Yeah. Molly from Insecure. And I'm proud of her. Because when you taking it into your 40s like that, you might as well You called her 40? I think she's 34. i think she like i got her confused i'm sorry because i mixed up who you were talking i was thinking about um what's her name from parks and rec um not park i was like minzy i can't think of her name her name is like oh or something you talk about retta the black shirt but the other one i don't know
Starting point is 00:29:10 who she talking about. I've never seen Part of Greg. I will talk, whatever. But I'm confused. We'll Google it. There's another one.
Starting point is 00:29:15 There's another. But there's women in their 40s that's not had, like I was part of a virginity club. You don't even get it. Like we was keeping.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Like y'all had rings and stuff. Oh, we went, like if a girl was in our club, was dating somebody, somebody had to go on a date with her. Oh, that sounds like Sidney.
Starting point is 00:29:30 That's me. Sidney be trying to do that to me. I'm so good at cock blocking. Sidney, you gotta take my friend out, but I gotta be there. yeah and then i'll be there in the morning i don't know that song begins to ride
Starting point is 00:29:44 that's a song that's what i was singing in church i'm on the first in the emerald that was in uh the book of hymns page 206 your dick gets up so you got in a good place with this situation with this person but here's the thing you have a connection with a guy or a girl i don't even know what that is anymore and then it's it finds its way into a physical thing and what i realized i can't speak from a man's perspective because i'm not a man and i don't want to believe belittle a man's experience i mean we could do that here this is a safe space but but that's to say that i have male friends of mine who've been hurt by women and where where are they where are they oh i know a good portion
Starting point is 00:30:28 of dudes and I have to constantly tell them I said don't, and what happens when a man gets broken is he either becomes nasty to women and I said you don't want to be the man now because you've been hurt that goes out and hurts women to spite this woman because these women have nothing to do
Starting point is 00:30:44 You say Haitian? You got a lot of nerve You regular black American bitch That sounds like a real Haitian man but it's you know her that whole philosophy of like her people her people but as a woman when you have sex with a man or you become intimate with someone and we connect on these different levels or even sitting in your case with women and women there's emotion there there's a connection
Starting point is 00:31:14 it's all emotion it's all talking it's less physical more talking you know a lot of like emotion is there you you misinterpret what's really going on because it's like oh i like how you make me feel and i also think that this is love because we are also friends and although a friendship and love and all that can coexist together it doesn't mean like i if i make an assessment of this dude i'm not making a pure assessment of him because i haven't qualified how he treats me right so you have to break down each thing you have to break down the friendship break down this it sounds like a word problem that i don't want to solve look let's do it let's not do it but you see i'm somebody i'm not good with commitment i'm a like a commitment phobe right so
Starting point is 00:31:59 like i'm yeah but you're but i'm telling you right now you have a commitment phobia because you don't want to get hurt and you don't want to break down those walls is that real and and and no i'm telling you no you know what it is don't you dr feel me i'm dr feel you because the part of the the i there's a, you know, I'm a good medium between the both of you, because I understand you. You know, Maria's ice. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:32:25 She can turn on a dime. She's the ice in a refrigerator that's not in a little tray. She's not the ice cube. She's the ice in the... She's the ice pack in the back. Fresh ice. Water. You know, the water ice come in, and she's like,
Starting point is 00:32:41 all right, y'all, I'm here. We about to all do the ice. Thank you so much. together you honestly the nicest thing that you guys never said to me but i am is but i also have a bubbly side like marie i mean like sydney and it takes a minute to get there but i get there only when i'm comfortable right and it takes i'm the person when i come into a room i people get the wrong impression you gotta take your coat off you gotta take your hat off you gotta fix your shoes you gotta brush the cat hair off your shoulder to people and feelings and emotions so if I feel like there's some fuck shit going on
Starting point is 00:33:12 I'm going to be the worst bitch you've ever encountered I'm not going to talk I'm going to live in what I'm saying you're going to be like oh this girl's a bitch if I come in and the spirit's right I'm there because I open myself up wholly to people I don't have time to be open up wholly
Starting point is 00:33:29 to people that are just going to misuse and mistreat I feel like I'm seeing you for the first time sis wow because I see it because I've seen you come into spaces and just be like nope not here for none of these niggas and i'm like hey girl you're like you're like no and listen when i first met y'all because she was like i'm not trying to be no mentor and sister shit we either we friends or that's it like i don't be calling me asking
Starting point is 00:33:55 me about comedy everybody i said this years ago but that's the but that's the first thing you said she's gonna get a tattoo on her back one day this is what y'all told me don't be about to hustle because i gave her a hug and i was like she came in so hot she came in like blazing from the solacist and i was like i don't want to be bothered with this and she probably had on some booty shorts oh my god and a hat shut up and her her weave was probably like 28 inches yeah i know she looked like a skinny ass video hoe and she's like hey girl i do comedy too and you were like no you don't no you don't i know you don't i don't know what you do but it's not what i do uh so that happened uh you were messing around with a bunch of people that were not
Starting point is 00:34:38 good for you good for you fortifying that's the word of the podcast i love to love people right i love like when you're around me and you really get to know me there's a childlike essence that people always pick up because i'm very like sit in your space I can love on you. Especially when you're on an edible nigga. Or when I'm on an edible nigga. When you're licking a lollipop, wow. Even when I'm not, I can have that, but it comes from trust.
Starting point is 00:35:07 And what I really realized is I did not want to be broken by somebody saying they didn't want to be in my space and in my life anymore. Well, if you don't want to be there, then why are you in my face right now? That's true. but from my perspective every time somebody would leave or every time a guy broke my heart or did I would take all of that
Starting point is 00:35:30 on myself in a victim way and then I would put all of it on him and he is the villain and the reality is some of them niggas was villains they's bad guys but let me tell you why but it comes back to why I said no dick 2017
Starting point is 00:35:46 yes let's talk about it I did not want to deal with men in a sexual way and have any penis, any of that, because what happens is, my core value of what I want as a woman is, I want you to take me out to dinner. I want you to...
Starting point is 00:36:01 That sounds like Marie. That's my core value as a person. But hear me out, because I want them to get there, because I think it's an important message that I learned this year. There's certain things. I want you to love me the way I love you. I want you to respect me. I want you to see my mind.
Starting point is 00:36:18 I want you to go, yo, y'all nigga's a dope bitch like no matter what she i respect what she's got going on this is the woman that i want to be with yes this is a woman that i want to show the world but i think ultimately that's what people want you want someone to be with you and support you because i was fucking guys thinking let me foot and then the love would come qualifying whether they need to be in my life or not right giving them because i know we all want this like slut walk and women do whatever want and fuck whoever you want but let's be real as women for a second the part of our beauty and and being a woman is the value of our body our bodies are special i don't give a fuck if you
Starting point is 00:36:59 two pounds or three thousand pounds i don't give a fuck if you're hideous to people of your most beautiful like as a woman your body and this and what we receive from men is very important Men ejaculate into women Yeah, but I mean Your body can't be that beautiful It's 3,000 pounds 3,000 pounds is a lot of pounds Marie, stop
Starting point is 00:37:22 Marie, stop No, no, no, because like It's very important to understand that Women are vessels that receive You pick up that When a man comes into you and he puts his He's dropping that spirit off inside you Oh, sis, the spirit?
Starting point is 00:37:38 No, I don't want that But we're picking up energy and vibration that you may not need to pick up from this dude because has this dude, and this is not about, cause some guys like, Oh, women are just trying to be gold. You just trying to get me to get up. No, no, no. I'm just trying to see what value you're bringing to my life and is it worthy of the love and the value that I'm about to give to you?
Starting point is 00:37:59 Because before you come into me and my body and fuck up my spirit and don't have your shit together, let's qualify whether we need to even be in the same space together. Are you my mate? Are you the guy that's going to hold me down? Are you the guy that's... So no poor men need apply. No, that's not what she's saying. That's what I'm hearing.
Starting point is 00:38:19 No, it's about, first of all, love me. But I wanted to tell you... Love me, because men will fuck you. A man will fuck you all day long. And women go... Because there's a lot of... It may not be y'all, but there's a lot of women out here going,
Starting point is 00:38:32 oh, but he fucked me. And I hear guys going... No, no, no. I don't say that. I just fucked her. I don't even know. Yo, she got so crazy. Why she get so crazy?
Starting point is 00:38:38 I was just fucking her. Motherfucker, did you tell her you was just fucking her? Were you saying things to her that was giving her encouragement? But also, I've seen situations where the dude has been up front like, hey man, I don't want to do nothing. But the woman is like, oh,
Starting point is 00:38:54 but I feel like we can get to that. Can I speak on that? Because again, it's about taking responsibility on both sides. This is not me saying men are fucked up. A woman, take responsibility for what you want, what you want to deal with, what you want out of your life it's about knowing yourself and knowing how you want this to go right and if you're
Starting point is 00:39:13 looking at this man and you already got your list together what the fuck you want right when you see this nigga is not the shit you want don't fuck him and if you because it would happen so fast it don't happen fast when a man says to you it happens fast let me tell you what a guy will say a guy go you know i'm saying like you know i ain't really trying to get no relationship right you don't try to do my thing even that to a woman is like it's a challenge i could i could check it it's me i'm different every woman sometimes thinks they different and i'm gonna love it that's why you see women like giving loving niggas beyond what they get and you go why the fuck you supporting this nigga and loving this nigga so much oh but he's misunderstood blah blah and he he one day
Starting point is 00:39:57 i'm gonna get him no a man knows right away if he wants to be with you and be your man and marry That's why women go I fucked around With this dude for years I gave him everything And then the next chick He get with He married
Starting point is 00:40:11 That he know for four seconds He done married her Yes Because guess what Because he knows You done did everything You done been sponsoring This nigga
Starting point is 00:40:19 So that he can get His shit together To go be the man Of another woman's dream Yeah he's shooting In the gym with you Make sure that the man You get in your fucking vagina
Starting point is 00:40:27 That's coming and Ejaculating into you Good lord Yeah you don't be using Cups That's supposed to be With you Yeah you don't be using
Starting point is 00:40:34 Cups I'm not here for a cream pie I know, I'm using condoms but with, listen ejaculation and all of that stuff niggas nutting you and just releasing that shit and going I might need to do a no dick
Starting point is 00:40:50 2018 but you know what, when I stopped fucking dudes and dudes knew I was not fucking, I got this I got several types of dudes, the first dude I got was a, yo, let me let me be around for 2018 as soon as 2018 was creeping around
Starting point is 00:41:06 my DMs went through the roof because every nigga thought they was gonna be the first nigga to fuck me in 2018 no thank you you think I went through a whole year of no dick to go fuck with some raggedy nigga that's not my future absolutely not so to answer your question that you asked me before have I fucked yet
Starting point is 00:41:21 absolutely not I didn't do 2017 no dick to go and then fuck with a fuck boy but now I know that if I want to fuck a guy and it's just on fuck shit, that I got to treat that dude the same way a dude treats a girl
Starting point is 00:41:41 when he's just trying to fuck. No, nigga, we not going out. No, you only come over. Don't call me on the phone. We're just fucking. Don't call me on the phone. Send me a text. No emojis.
Starting point is 00:41:52 But the man that I want to be my husband that's going to come in and go, I want to let you know that I'm worthy of you, Yamanika, and then I'm going to go, I want you to know that I'm worthy of you, whoever he is. That's the guy that I'm going to treat with care.
Starting point is 00:42:06 My only issue with you is I want somebody to love the way I love and that's impossible. Nobody's going to love like you. What do you mean I said love the way I love? Earlier you was like I want somebody who's going to love me the way I love. The way I give love. No, no, no. Listen. Y'all know
Starting point is 00:42:23 I cook, I clean. I don't want people to come over. You got them cats. You do got them cats. But it's a full what do you want, what do you need? Everybody having a good time. I give it to you. You're our host. You're good. I may not get a husband that is, like, that attentive like that,
Starting point is 00:42:39 but there's got to be something in him that he shows his love in the way, and I go, I can deal with that. You know, my grandfather's not a big talker, right? He wasn't a big, huge talker. The way he showed love was giving us money, making sure we had a roof over our head. Oh, that's blessed. That's blessed.
Starting point is 00:42:54 I love your granddad. You know, as women, you know, my grandfather was like, as a woman, understand men are going to fuck around. Be the woman. Be a strong woman. My grandfather raised us to be like that My grandmother's way of showing love was Hey everybody get a pot pie
Starting point is 00:43:07 Like she'd make a pot pie for everybody This is why I'm fat That don't make me feel special You giving everybody a pot pie bitch When you come home it's like everybody got a pot pie for them You thought she was just giving away random pot pies She'd give you all Bible tracts Now that wasn't special
Starting point is 00:43:23 No I don't want a Bible tract We used to have Bible tracts on Sundays But that's a whole other story Call me up for a Christian expert I feel like you are the one the overall message and I know I'm getting passionate but you're passionate because
Starting point is 00:43:38 this is important to you and you had no dick for a whole year you were built up girl let me tell you something the only reason why I'm able to sit in the same room with a guy that I cried over
Starting point is 00:43:54 for months every time I thought about him I shed tears it's because I go he's not my dude anyway. Would I fuck him again? I don't know. Probably I love fucking him. Damn. Oh, wow. The strokes was that good too.
Starting point is 00:44:09 No, no, it wasn't that good. Don't throw it away. What I'm saying is I'm using that as an example of like, it wasn't about not liking fucking him. I liked fucking him. But what I was mixing up was that I loved him and I didn't.
Starting point is 00:44:25 Because he's not the man for me we don't he's a cool friend but he ain't the man for me no he got he's not even a man for himself yet he's trying to be the man for him but i'm just saying like for real and write that on a post-it write that on a post-it the other thing i learned going through 2017 is i wasn't the woman that i needed to be for a man i wasn't like did you learn that i did learn that i was a really bad girlfriend you know what you and it's so funny because periodically you'll step out of yourself and you're like you know what i was a really crappy girlfriend yeah i'll wake up in the middle of night and be like oh my god that time that he said that thing and then i just
Starting point is 00:45:06 like i was a really i was i was not good i was a really bad girl you think you you've changed if you see somebody if you start dating somebody now no i'm probably gonna do you know i'm gonna do other i'm gonna do other bad stuff but i'm not gonna do that stuff right i'm more i'm more Marie now than I was when I was with this guy. But people, but we also have to remember that people are only going to do what you... No, people are going to like, you're
Starting point is 00:45:32 only, people are only going to do what you let them do to you. Right. That's it. So in that situation, I mean, eventually he's trying to open you up three years in. You're like, dude, I don't say I love you like that. It was so different because this dude that I was with, he was real emotional.
Starting point is 00:45:48 He was like, he was in touch with who he was. Like, he just wanted to talk about everything and i was like no i'm not doing that i i i say to you because i can't say with absolute certainty because life isn't certain but i guarantee you that you will come across a man that you will want to say i love you too no and i'm sure that and i i think that too i think that too but i just mean that like the where we were in our lives this guy was two ten years older than me he was more he was on a different level than i was mentally right and also i'm a taker and he was a giver you keep giving me i'm just gonna keep taking it it's true he was giving and he gave
Starting point is 00:46:25 his home he gave his time he gave all the food that i ate for three years like he was just giving and i would just take i was like this is great this is fan and in his book he's probably has this whole story about marie but being the person on the outside book no no you never know when you blow a bitch you were like i'm living with marie he's gonna write a show I want to watch this shit now Go ahead and blow up bitch You better go out there to LA and blow up Because I'm telling you
Starting point is 00:46:53 I'm going to be on my Instagram Commentating on that shit How the fuck did this bitch do this to him How dare you Take it from this good dude I'm watching on the outside As a giver What the fuck did you just put on
Starting point is 00:47:07 I didn't put nothing on She's like your lips still look dry Sidney pulled out some chapstick Some gloss as a as a giver i'm seeing that like if you give people are going to take nobody's going to say no thank you especially if they're in a place where they need well some people will right some people will say no thank you but a lot of times more often than not if you're just giving your time your love your energy people will just take that right like we all know people that you see them
Starting point is 00:47:39 and they're complaining and they unload all of their problems on you but they don't ask you how you're doing but that's an example of them taking from you the most dangerous person is in that scenario the person that gives because over time that person that gives builds up resentment yes builds up a callous right and the person that's taking they just go off to la for two months and leave you okay it's true i'm like you just gonna leave and forget about the podcast for the podcast i feel like we've been here for several hours i was like you're just gonna leave a podcast you're gonna leave us stranded like this you see me you see me pre-recording with you recording for the month this is like we got 10 we had 10 weeks of episodes i know but i'm i'm saying
Starting point is 00:48:23 me as a giver and now i'm in a situation in a relationship where somebody else gives way more than me yeah and i'm like oh i'm on the other end now and i feel like unless you have a soul and a conscience you won't feel bad about the taking that you can't give back nah not until like two years after y'all break up and you home in your pre-war apartment like damn i was a crappy person no i mean some people never realized that they were crappy people people don't i mean i have my my father's mother uh lily may saunders who's my grandmother lily may she was one of the sweetest women and both my grandmothers taught me a lot about generosity but which is important to teach children the one thing lily may would always
Starting point is 00:49:09 when she would she would be so sweet when she would get upset she would be like now you know it would be like the cutest little thing you would you look at her and go are you upset like we would like cute it was so cute because it was a part of her that could not help but like not want to make you angry with her anger and i always thought i said when she was laid to rest i said my grandmother gave a lot and i don't know how many people really gave back to a lot of people used her yeah that's how i feel about my aunt too and and that's why i want you know people can get whatever they want my own personal experience with no dick 2017 was what it was it was a journey i saw it journey but i got on the other side and some women joined me and said you
Starting point is 00:49:54 know i i wanted to try that it wasn't just about focusing on not having dick it was like let's that ain't even a focus at all right now i'm gonna take myself to a museum and have a good time by myself i'll take myself to dinner you took dates movies i dated myself and see but that's i mean i'm not at the point in my life where i can uh afford to take myself to cute i walk all the times as i'm poor uh i walk to the bus i walk to the train yeah i walk right in your journal have a movie night with yourself at home I gotta get a journal I would take Babs
Starting point is 00:50:29 and light candles I do that make myself a nice dinner at home listen y'all act like I'm rolling in the dough I got a penny pinch too so it's like if you're making yourself dinner what you make it for yourself
Starting point is 00:50:44 you make it like a tenderloin or something she make it a whole Thanksgiving turkey you make it like a rack of ribs Yeah, but that's Thanksgiving. I have, you know, like, now I'm eating clean, so it's like a lot of protein and vegetables. Clean, you're eating clean. And what does clean mean?
Starting point is 00:51:00 I'm eating a lot of chicken, a lot of baked chicken. Okay. Nothing fried. Nothing fried, no batter on it. Every now and then I'll have a cheeseburger with no bun. Sounds flavorless. Cheeseburger with no bun. And like the lettuce wrap?
Starting point is 00:51:13 Yeah, that sounds right to you. The lettuce bun? Yeah, just so I can... So sorry to hear that, y'all. I thought you were doing well, but it sounds like you're doing bad. You really don't. I love bread. I've felt so light since I stopped eating bread
Starting point is 00:51:25 and all that nonsense. Well, let me pick you up. Let me see how light you really feel. Well, I said I feel light, bitch. I ain't see either. Okay? I ain't gonna float up in the clouds now. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:51:40 I'm gonna do my best. I'm gonna do my best. So, what was the worst part about No Dick 2017? Let's run through the... Tell me about the urges. The worst part The worst part of it Was saying to myself
Starting point is 00:51:57 Am I okay With being alone forever And am I okay That's a real ass question Because I'm getting older and maybe it won't happen But I had to I faced that question Every day of the No Dick 2017
Starting point is 00:52:13 And I still face it to this day And I just said to myself It was like last week i was like i don't know maybe i won't get married maybe i won't have kids i would love to be married i would love to have children but maybe it won't happen and i'm and and and when i talked to my mother my mother goes there's a difference in you like of the dependency it should be very codependent on my family and they financially supported me for many many years they i was the only child my mother had that was baby that grew up only child i have half sisters so it's since
Starting point is 00:52:46 my grandmother's passing it's been a disconnect of like disconnecting from all the things that were holding me up because one day they may not be there yeah that is so true that is such a real feeling too real because you know like like if you're lucky enough to grow up with your mother and father or your family your aunts whoever and you you call them every day like i speak to my mother every day if i don't she thinks i'm dead right my mother too recently because i don't see my mother as often anymore so when i see her i'm like oh like i can see my mom is getting older now does that make sense like i see it in her and i'm like one day my mom is not gonna be here so when i be on the phone with her and i want to yell at her or say something smart i have to like
Starting point is 00:53:31 i'm gonna suck it in because i these moments are not gonna be here forever yeah and the disconnect that you were saying i'm on the other end i'm not cool with my family like that and the people who are very close to me who raised me they're all passed away so i feel like i don't have something to hold on so my emotions are not as strong as they were before like i feel like i could do whatever because i don't have all these people looking over and to disappoint them you know well i've told you this and i know like i get busy but i always told you you could call me anytime you can't call me before nine no because that's a real like i understand like with you know it's just it's just my grandfather and he's in hospice right now so we don't know how long he's got
Starting point is 00:54:17 right and my aunt who's already has all these handicaps so she no telling how long she has and if people die in the natural order they're supposed to die yeah that's how it is now something gonna happen i can get out who knows yeah but we you know everybody lives their life to the fullest that they can live and you may be alone and the reality is I'll tell you about one of the weakest moments I had in 2000. Tell me. When my grandmother
Starting point is 00:54:39 passed and I couldn't process it because I was just finishing up the show I was doing and we had to tape that day and I remember being on set. Oh yes, you wrote about it. Yeah, and it was like really crazy and Safari,
Starting point is 00:54:56 Nicki Minaj's ex-boyfriend, just so people know, I don't want to label him like that because he does his own loving but that's what we know him from that's how he ended up on the show he was doing a sketch with us and he said something he overheard me talking to somebody about my grandmother he said I felt sadness on you and he was telling me
Starting point is 00:55:11 that he experienced two losses within the week and it was like and he was like yo it's all gonna be good and I was like he experienced to lose two people that were very close to him in the same week yes and then I had that
Starting point is 00:55:27 I said you know let me put it to the side for a minute so I never really processed it I didn't want to see my grandmother I couldn't see her laid out even though I had been with her in the hospital when she looked my mother said she looked better and I know how that is
Starting point is 00:55:43 but I just couldn't do it they had to close the casket I came and hugged the cat but I couldn't see her but I had a moment where I own because my grandmother died October the 13th and we had her funeral about a week and a half later and
Starting point is 00:55:58 a guy from my past reconnected with me. Of course. They were like, she weak. Let's do it. Let's do it. And I took him home. Oh. And I took him home and he got in my bed. No. With his shoes on? With Forbes in Brooklyn. With the two cats?
Starting point is 00:56:13 Well, the cats love him. Oh, man. They knew. He had treats. He had treats in his hand. But he got in my bed and I realized we did not have sex. Oh, okay. You trying to tell us up top. y'all fooled around don't lie over the sweater action i didn't say we didn't fool around but i i was adamant about not having sex he licked your he licked your cat i'll say
Starting point is 00:56:33 i'll just say whatever happened happened but it was not sex we did not have any intercourse but i remember it's over it was out of the podcast this is a lie you're living a lie and it was difficult not to that's why i said i was glad i didn't have that many in cameras like that, because it's impossible almost sometimes. But I realized that I was trying to suppress all of my emotion and my pain in
Starting point is 00:57:03 being physical with him as much as I could be. And I was seeing that, oh, he's just the same person he's always been. He's not available emotionally or, I don't even think mentally, to tell you the truth, to be in a situation.
Starting point is 00:57:19 So I was like, you know what? Done. And I blocked him from my life. Yes. Did you block him on social media? I blocked him on social media. Because at the end of the day, again, no dick or no vagina, whatever it is, or sequestering yourself
Starting point is 00:57:35 to be alone with your thoughts, to be alone with yourself as a person, to really identify what you need, is very important to being accessible to be the person that somebody else can join in. Oh my goodness.
Starting point is 00:57:51 you need a whole class you sound like a TED talk sis I had to clear my space I had to clear my I had to clear the distraction of fucking is great having sex is amazing I love sucking dick
Starting point is 00:58:06 I love freaking Scorpio I'm a freak on Scorpio you gonna wait until the 58th minute of the podcast to say that I'll say this in closing I'm a Scorpio and I'm a freak I don't know what that means When I'm with a guy
Starting point is 00:58:21 It's like Everything The ear is available Any holes Oh that means Y'all mean You be licking ass I have had my ass licked
Starting point is 00:58:30 But you've never Ate ass The thing about it is I ain't trying to put my Tongue in your area So I'm the only one Licking ass Sydney you're the only one
Starting point is 00:58:37 Doing it Or the only one Doing it and admitting it But that's not to say I haven't I haven't Maybe I'll meet a guy One day where
Starting point is 00:58:43 I'll want to lick his ass I also get around A lot of guys Like don't do nothing Around my ass They not open enough They need to have some molly in their life or some roofie but i didn't want to distract like how much fun i was
Starting point is 00:58:56 having and and we misconstrued like having sex is like this i'm showing you how much i can't it's like no you're just no you're just horny a good time yeah you're trying to come and just see what it is but if you're trying to find love or you're trying to find a better understanding of love it begins with you loving and knowing yourself because if you don't know yourself I want to know what love is. How the hell could you get somebody to love you and give you what you need? If you don't even know yourself.
Starting point is 00:59:24 How do you know what you need if you don't know what you need? Well, how do you want it? How do you feel? A great poet said that. A great poet once said, I think it was Langston Hughes. Yes, he did.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Well, Yamanika, where can people who are listening catch more of you? They need to know. The people need to know. Well, you know, I had a stalker last night, so I had to take my schedule down again.
Starting point is 00:59:47 Oh, you and Marie. stalkers. Who is the stalker that somebody like followed you from one show to another show? It's, no, somebody from like a weird, it's a weird, whole weird thing and this guy like wears He wears like your skin? No, oh my god, in the name of Jesus, I'll repeat that.
Starting point is 01:00:02 He, um, like, he's white and people don't think he's a stalker. Right, so he has this, he has a t-shirt of you, of your face on it. Well, they're like mink coats and like rings, but um White dudes are scary stalkers.
Starting point is 01:00:17 When they lock in, they lock. They lock down. When they lock in, they lock. Yeah, and I ain't trying to human centipede for nobody. But what I will tell you is this. Unless you're in front of the centipede. You can catch me on my podcast, Ryan and Raven with the Amonican Friends. You can catch me on Laugh Mob Laugh Tracks on TruTV.

That's Y-A-M-A N-E-I-K-A and I love to respond, so if you guys follow me and you comment i know i've been seeing people are like this is not why i followed you it'd be like an angry white woman i'm gonna be like well baby i'm sorry but what else would you like to see i'd be screaming even if you don't see me say anything i'd be lurking i like it i like it i like i like your response yeah and i won't even like the post i just be like well let me see what the people say you really have good engagement with your followers yamanika posted a side-by-side
Starting point is 01:01:37 photo of two black dudes, David Aiello and then the Luke Cage dude. And we talked about this on the podcast. Right, we did. Two black dudes with their white wives at the Black Panther premiere and I just put, happy Black History Month. Yeah, it was a hot topic for the amount of times
Starting point is 01:01:55 people want to act like they don't want to talk about something like that and I'm glad I put that up for two reasons. One, because hello and two, I had a lot of people that were very hurt. I'm a product of an interracial relationship or I'm in one. I saw those.
Starting point is 01:02:10 And I'm like, this has nothing to do with you. This is about a bigger narrative of there are black men who will say things that are disparaging to black women on why they're with white women. And anytime there's a negative going out on why you're doing something,
Starting point is 01:02:27 let me tell you something right now. That's not love. This love is love shit. It's bullshit. Not every dude, every black dude that's dating a woman who's not black is in love they not because i'm gonna be honest and i've told my white girlfriends this too if you heard how these niggas was talking about y'all y'all would be because it's not there is no love there for them sometimes it's like well i want a bitch that i can run over
Starting point is 01:02:49 if this is what you think those dudes running track or listen mamsy pamsy bitches just here to observe something like have some esteem in yourself like it sounds oh esteem of yourself cute because sometimes you know it'll be because some white women's narrative is like well black and we're just jealous of it. And it's like, girl, let's be really clear. I didn't even want him. I don't want him. He ain't got his teeth in the bag.
Starting point is 01:03:13 Sometimes we don't even want that dude. And sometimes, let's be really real. Some of you white girls, the white dudes don't want y'all. So let's be really real about whether it's jealousy or not. As much as it is, he can fuck you and love you all he wants. He don't have to disrespect a sister in order to love you. And I would tell that to a white guy. That's why I don't fuck around with some white dudes.
Starting point is 01:03:36 are like oh that chocolate and blah blah blah I'm like no no no no if you ain't trying to love and fuck Yamanika for who she is get the fuck out of here that little slave shit don't be turning me on because hashtag me too we was getting it when motherfuckers was really not worried about time being up
Starting point is 01:03:52 when motherfuckers wasn't saying nothing and they was coming in there taking us at no point in time I gotta come back as a slave expert I gotta come back as a slave expert I see a Christian slave You did this
Starting point is 01:04:09 Yamanika The only issue I have with those two guys Is that if they really loved their wives They wouldn't have brought those top shop dashikis Dashikis They could have got their home Their home family to make them The right type of outfit
Starting point is 01:04:24 In the right cloth I don't want a dashiki but bitch Go get the garb Why are you wearing The same shit she had on I got for a Halloween costume on Amazon Prime and the shit was like
