The tip of the cap, there's another one gone. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama

who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, guys. I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs,

the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16th, 2017, was assassinated. Crooks everywhere unearthed the plot

to murder a one-woman WikiLeaks. She exposed the culture of crime and corruption that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state. Listen to Crooks Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Hear that? That's the sound of your life. Perfectly imperfect. Beating in rhythm to the world you've created. But every time you drive after drinking, the music gets drowned out. Your life sounds pretty great. Don't let a buzz ruin it. Buzz driving is drunk driving. Don't drive buzzed. A message from Nitson and the Ad Council.

Welcome to Reasonably Shady, a production of the Black Effect Podcast Network and iHeartRadio. Welcome to another episode of Reasonably Shady. I am Giselle Bryant. What's up? What's up? This is Robin Dixon. Thank you for being here with us once again once again this episode 148 baby get into it it sure is 148 100 that's 148 148 episodes and we are coming up on 150 yes 150 okay so we're doing a giveaway, right? Yeah, we're going to try to come up with a giveaway for you guys. Okay, so don't know the rules. No. I can tell you one of the prizes will be $150. Yes, we're going to be giving away at least $150 for our 150th episode. So we need to figure it out soon how to tell people to get involved in our giveaway.

Yep, exactly. So when I say we're going to do it soon, Lord only knows. Right or no? We're going to do it, y'all. Just like Giselle was supposed to give all y'all people who have listened to every single episode something. No, a hundred. Remember it was a hundred. It was a hundred people? No.

People who listened to all hundred episodes, 100 episodes, they're supposed to get something. Was that one at 100? Yeah. No, it wasn't? No. It wasn't at 100. You just randomly said it one day. Anyway, Robin didn't give you on nothing. So it's not on me. It was on Robin.

Like, how do we confirm that? Okay. So outside of, well, you know, my mama listened and she's still waiting for her gift and her hat, Robin. Okay. All right. Before you leave, I'll give you some. Okay, fine. Okay. Okay. Anyway anyway just give me her address and i'll ship them to you i'm just gonna send you her address there we go mama your hats are coming from robin not me only two years later anyway moving on i have a reasonably shady moment oh okay please i do okay Do you want to go first? No, you go.

Okay. So remember I told you I was in Hawaii? Yes. For my vacation. Yes. So all over the both resorts, they had little stations for you to fill up your water. And the thing said it was purified seven times. Okay. And it said it had minerals in it and it had

something coconut. Came from the volcanoes and all that? It came from, it came from straight from the volcanoes. I was like, yeah, whatever. So I started drinking the water. Robin, I never peed so good in my life. What? What? You never peed so good. Listen, don't that sound crazy? My pee my life. What? What? You never peed so good. Listen, don't that sound crazy?

My pee was everything. What? I would wake up in the middle of the night and I would pee like five gallons. Like I would just pee it all out. It was amazing. So I said to myself, I haven't been drinking the right water. Okay. Right?

Okay. So the next day, I remember I made a mental note. I'm going to take a picture of the whole system and I'm going to buy it. Oh, shoot. So the system is called Flow Water, not Flow Water like Flow Water that you can buy at Whole Foods. Okay. Right.

Okay. The whole system is called Flow Water. Okay. So I looked it up. Okay. And I'm on it. I'm going to purchase it. Okay.

Okay. And I'm going to have amazing water filtered in my house. Okay. It's purified seven times. Okay. Are you getting jealous? Yes. You should.

Yeah. Okay. So anyway, the shady part is, why the hell are we drinking this dumb ass water? Everybody should be drinking this flow water. Okay. Because I lost weight in the 10 days I was there, maybe two weeks. I lost weight. What are you talking about? I promise you. I lost weight in the 10 days I was there, maybe two weeks. I lost weight. I promise you, I lost weight.

I peed amazingly. What does that mean? What does that mean? That pee was flowing. I don't know. The pee was flowing. So you peed more often? At night.

It was weird. I don't want to pee more often at night. I wasn't mad at it. I would get up and it was weird i don't want to pee more often at night i wasn't mad at it i would get up and it was i was just peeing oh it was amazing i felt so good in the morning in the morning i felt great okay none of my bones hurt not that they ever do what's none of my joints hurt not that they ever do and i was just a better person so So nothing was different. My skin looked better. It's always beautiful. Right.

But that's not the point. Robin, I promise you every water that we drink. Because you know when you go to. It's garbage. You know when we go to other countries, that food is better. Yes. Same thing. Yeah.

Their water is better. Not that Hawaii is a different country, but they, you know. Right. They have their own stuff. Yeah, their own stuff. Yeah. So anyway, the shadiness is all the water that we drink. So you're getting the filtration system?

Yes. And what is it? Like, what do you attach it to? Is it out? You put it like, where do you put it? I don't know. What? I don't know anything.

Okay. But it costs a lot of money and I can afford it. Okay. The end. Okay. I'm going to afford afford that when you get it bring me a bottle of yes you sound like some other people in my life they're like oh I'm gonna come over and just like fill up fill up a couple jugs I mean if that's yes if that's what it's what it's

like I'm gonna do that too yeah I'm going to and you know it'll save on but you have your your water thing here yes but it'll like for me I have I buy the bottle so it'll save on, but you have your water thing here. Yes. But it'll, like for me, I have, I buy the bottle. So it'll save me from doing that. Yeah. But yes, I will fill up something and let you try it. Now you gotta get your Stanley cup. Hell no. I don't believe in Stanley cups.

Why? I just think it's a racket. But it's not, I mean, that would come useful. No. So what are you going to put your water in? I don't know yet. I i'm gonna get that i'm gonna let y'all know like a stanley cup would would do the job by the way psa on the stanley cups and just any other cup so they have like a long straw that you drink out of or they have

like an opening psa if you care about your wrinkles around your mouth and stuff don't drink out of straws because that action can speed up your wrinkling process around your lips that's when you get all like the little wrinkles around your mouth wow i gotta tell grace that yeah so don't yeah tell all right especially all the little young girls if you're drinking through the straw i mean similar to like people who smoke cigarettes when you do that that motion yes that's just causing more wrinkles around your lips wow okay that's good to know yeah great psa yeah so i so i don't use the straw on my stanley cup i just drink out of the opening right and then that will stop all these girls from getting botox so young yeah yeah yeah

and then men can be happy because we're just natural all the men can be happy we're just natural right exactly so since you know what i had, I wasn't going to share the shady moment, but since you were talking about your water and which leads to me to my water. So I get water delivered from Mountain Valley water, which is like supposed to be one of the best waters. It is. And it's, yes. And it's, it's bottled in glass bottles. Okay. So we get, we'll get two cases of 12 gas glass bottles, but I also get the big jugs delivered. Okay. I get two or three big jugs at a time and you put them in like the, I don't know what it's called, the dispenser and the water comes out, whatever.

So they deliver my water. They're really heavy. So we came in one day and Juan told Corey to bring in the jugs of water. How many do you have delivered at one time? So it was like two big jugs and two cases of water. Okay. So Corey goes and lifts up the big jug. And he's walking it, bring it through the garage and he drops

that big ass glass jug of water and there is like to this day we are still cleaning up glass shards like we're gonna be cleaning up glass in my garage for like a year oh it shattered

just imagine like a big jug of water made out of glass i'm sorry i'm i'm actually happy he didn't drop it on his foot yes but because he'd broken his toe yes and i'm kind of happy that it happened why Why? Because I already told Juan, I think it's a little too heavy for him. Like, not that it's, so it's heavy, but it's cumbersome. Yeah. Right? So, like, even though Corey's strong, I just feel like at his age, he was, he's not, like,

I don't know, he just wasn't, like like mature enough to really like handle it properly yeah it's probably a two-man job no it's not i mean i can do it i can do it but it's heavy like you really have to like get a good grip on it and sometimes it's wet oh so sometimes it's slippery i think it was slippery because it was outside in the rain yeah yeah you dropped that big old but i was kind of like i told you he can't handle that you know because you know as parents like the debate becomes like the mom is always sticking up for the kids yes and the dad is always like you'll never have my back so i was like okay let me just keep my mouth shut okay yes and then when he dropped it i was like yeah i didn't think he

could carry that yeah did i tell you no but there's like glass shards all in my garage so what part is shady Juan telling him to go get it Corey dropping it yes Juan making Corey take that big ass heavy ass glass bottle of water into my house well we know that's not gonna happen again

yes yeah that's over I wasn't mad at Corey at all like Juan was mad at Corey but I was not i was like told you um okay i want to give a shout out to um this restaurant in alabama because i've never heard of such and i was like highly impressed so there is a black owned family style restaurant in alabama that has no prices. Okay. No prices. Okay. And they feed anyone who is hungry. Okay. So basically they're living off donations. Ah, okay.

So, and it's like, I don't want to say an honor system because you don't have to pay. But they have been doing this forever. It's called Drexel and Honeybees in Brewton, Alabama, is a unique black owned restaurant with a donation only policy. Oh, they're open Tuesday to Thursday. And the founders are Freddie and Lisa Thomas McMillan. And they serve Southern comfort food like fried chicken, cornbread, and they ensure that no one leaves hungry. Even before the doors open, the energy at Drexel and Honeybee's is buzzing. This restaurant operates on donations only. Their motto is simple. We feed the need. I just wanted to do something to show people that money does not

does not make the world go around. Wow. I think that's phenomenal. That is. Yeah. That's phenomenal. And they must have enough patrons that they pay, you know, enough for them to make a profit.

Yeah. And it's enough for them to make a profit, enough for them to survive, and also to feed anyone who wants to eat. Yes. And if you can't afford it, some people just leave a thank you note right wow that's really nice that's crazy in this day and age yes the amount

like how much food costs now wow um food food is expensive it's crazy yes food is ridiculously expensive but i can't just imagine like for me i knowing that about this restaurant i would go there and just give them way more right so there's probably some people that do that exactly yeah yeah um but just the fact that you're being able to feed everybody is right fantastic how long they've been in business i don't know but it sounds like a while so shout out and if you're in that area go there and um even if you don't eat give them some money right okay they doing god's work i hope the food is good i don't care if it's good i do i mean yeah we want the food to be good but i'm thinking it's good they in alabama they make us all food yeah it's good yeah yeah all right so have you heard that kfc is and it's a KFC cookie dough.

Okay. The dessert features a crispy golden exterior filled with warm, gooey chocolate chip cookie dough fried to perfection. Are you going to eat it? Because you know me. Yes. I love my sweets. I love my desserts, that so I saw this I got immediately grossed out I don't want fried chicken cookies right fried chicken cookies is

wait fried chicken cookie dough but okay it's fried cookie dough but you know that's the same chicken grease that's the same that they use to fry the chicken yeah that is true they're gonna dip that cookie dough in the same fried chicken grease that is gross i don't want fried chicken cookies yeah yeah no no i don't want that either but i can say when i was younger i've been to kfc in like forever but when i was younger i used to love their chocolate cake they you could buy a chocolate cake at kfc i didn't know that yes it was like a ring cake and they would have like little chocolate morsels in it. It was so good. It was so good.

What happened to that? Tell them to bring that back. They might still have it. I just don't go to KFC anymore. Yeah. I don't even know where there is a KFC. Right. Yes.

Let's start there. Right. Okay. I'm going to leave this right here. Oh, you about to say something? No, I was going to say while you're in your Instagram. Yeah. Oh, it's the Instagram Chronicles, y'all.

Okay. Okay. The other day I was in my Instagram, i was looking through my settings and i just noticed something that i was like okay this is interesting so how many accounts do you have blocked jesus is there something you think you tell me that yeah how do you how do you find out So go to your settings.

just like I saw that I was like okay this is ridiculous yes that's the true meaning of F-A-A-F-O around to find out we're Robin Dixon okay talk about her once that. Okay, that's funny. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection it was literally that step by step and so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth,

gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're gonna figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

That's number one. But number two, when he has a beard, he did i said first of all he not listening to reasonably shady that's number one but number two when he has a beard he's like real serious i gotta take him seriously like nothing he's saying is funny yeah he's a political pundit i'm not mad at it he's like on every talk show talking about politics yeah he gets smarter with the beard we gotta let him know charlamagne keep the beard honey you you smarter with it um okay so this is from d brown and this before we get into um is it reasonable or is it shady it says hello ladies i love the podcast i only listen to podcasts when i'm traveling so i'm a little behind okay i'm on episode 124 right now okay and for that last few episodes people have been going ham about them deers since y'all cannot say it i will them deers thank you d brown i needed to say that i needed to say it because you know i have

figured out a way and i'm gonna tell d brown if you put remember i said zest have you tried it i haven't i saw you got the net over, which is cute. Yeah. Yeah. It works. My landscaper just did that on his own. So you didn't, I was like,

look at Robin getting fancy. You know, I didn't do that. So Robin has nets over her flowers to protect them from the deer. If you put zest down, that deters the deer. But I think my zest has gone away. Cause I saw a deer lately. I saw one. and I was like

actually I'm lying it was when I was on vacation it was on my ring camera okay and I started screaming in the ring camera go away go away here go my kids stop mom stop like they try to protect the deer anyway did it run it did not okay okay kind of, it stopped for a second and then it slowly left. Yeah. Took its time. Yeah. They're not scared of humans anymore. No, they're not.

I was taking a walk the other day and they were literally walking next to me. Really? Yes. I was like, so I had to like pull my camera out just in case they attacked me, you know, like. Why? What's that going to do? I don't know.

Just put it on, on TikTok. Like watch the deer attack me. Attack Robin? Yeah, that's. Or just show my family. I thought you were going to say you're going to pull a gun out just in case it attacked you. Well now, so Juan ordered this walking stick. I mean, it's, it can almost, it's so heavy.

Like, or so, it's made out of metal. It could really hurt somebody. Why does he have a walking stick? Because he's scared of all of the fox and the coyotes and the deer that are in our neighborhood. So we like to take walks outside. Yes. He's scared of nature. Okay.

So we ordered a walking stick. But that thing, it's like a baton.

Robin and Giselle. First, uh, first off, love the podcast and our HOP will never be the same without the green eyed bandits. But girl, I have a reasonably or shady moment for y'all so by the way robin yeah have we heard anything from um the people

the real reasonably shady family um the the girl sleeping with her boyfriend's father oh no not yet okay all right we're waiting okay because we want to know if Ava slept with. Right. Yeah. Okay. Ava, we're still waiting for you to let us know. Okay. Okay.

So. Because she has our permission to do so. She sure does. Okay. So my roommate from college and I were close up until our senior year. He and his girlfriend of almost three years had broken up and all hell broke loose our senior year. But that's a whole different story.

Okay. My roommate was outside and getting it in whenever he could. Oh, the roommate. Is this a, oh, this is a man. Okay. So Charles, okay. The roommate, roommate getting it in, which was his right after the breakup. One of his favorite spots was the place called Bell Mountain.

Remember that? He's telling us to remember that. Okay. Bell Mountain. So he went to Bell Mountain. Okay. Remember that. That's a important part of the story.

Okay. To take girls and not to mention his ex-girlfriend as well when they were dating. After graduation, we split ways because it became a lot of drama because of his exploits. It's been five years, and now he has a girlfriend who didn't go to college with us, and he met her in a completely different state. But he chose to propose to her at Bell Mountain, where he used to have his rendezvous. To my knowledge, his now fiance

had never been there before until he proposed. So it holds no sentimental value in their relationship. Oh my God. Now, it is a beautiful spot

with a nice view. Okay. But tell me, is it reasonable or shady to propose to someone where you had multiple hookups okay yeah that all right look i'm over here googling bell mountain okay does that shady shady shady i definitely give it a shady that's shady but you know what that is that's like

years. Totally. But I would think you would want to do some research. It's a Google search. To find another beautiful place that you don't have all these memories. To propose to your now wife. Right fiance i mean yeah that is shady that is and the and the fiance's probably like oh that was so beautiful yes so thoughtful yes oh my goodness he did all of this for me so let me tell you where where it's gonna go left she's gonna post that that she got proposed to on bell mountain and all his other hoes that he used to

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves.

Yes. We like UPS drivers. Okay. You see one on the next episode of the Real Housewives of Potomac. Don't be surprised. Okay. I just want y'all to know. Okay.

We have time for one more. Mimi wrote. Oh, Mimi. We got another reasonable or shady. Okay. Okay. Our girl Mimi. She's always emailing us with the interesting scenarios.

Yeah. And she always tries to say they're not her right but Mimi I don't know if I believe you girl she said this is not my situation Giselle but I need your thoughts on this situation okay okay okay so this is like a dating scenario says I took this female out to eat about two weeks ago and I tested her. We ordered our food and had a nice time just talking over food and getting to know each other. I'm not going to front. I was feeling shorty, not just because she was beautiful, but her mindset is what got me. But when we were done eating and I asked for the bill, the lady came back with it.

I said, damn, I left my wallet at home. You think you can pay for the food and I will give you the money back when I get home? She just got up and left. All I can do is laugh I left my wallet at home. You think you can pay for the food and I will give you the money back when I get home? She just got up and left. All I can do is laugh and shake my head. But I go in my pocket and pay for the bill and leave a $10 tip. Okay, how did he go in his pocket? I thought he left his wallet at home. Because he was testing her.

Oh. The lady said, thank you and you are a very smart man. Sometimes you have to test them to see if they are the one or not. I never spoke to her after that. Was she reasonable or shady for getting up and walking out? Or was he reasonable or shady for testing her? He was shady for testing her. Yeah.

She was reasonable for leaving. And I hate him. Right. Why would you do that? Because, okay. So I feel like whether he was testing her. So let's say he really didn't have his wallet. Right.

Right. Yeah. That's that deserve. You deserve to be walked out on. Yes. What man takes a woman out on a date without his wallet? Right. So you deserve to be walked out on.

Or if the woman is like, you know what? This dude is testing me and I don't like that. No of it is good none of it is good so she was reasonable the woman was reasonable yes for walking out yes even though i probably i probably wouldn't you have shady oh no okay okay sorry yall. We got our paddles. Yeah. The woman was reasonable. Yes. For walking out. Right.

The man was shady. Shady. For testing her. Shady. Let me tell you something. That happened to me one time. Really? So I had been dating this dude for a minute and you know who he is.

I'm going to tell you later. Okay. And we had gone out and I think he just was drunk or something. I don't know what had happened. I went to the bathroom. I come back from the bathroom. He's not at the table anymore. So the waiter comes over and he was like,

Hey, I really don't want to do this. But the guy that you were here with told me to tell you that he left. And, and like, you know, for you to pay the bill. And I was like, what? I I said what do you mean and so

because I was dating him right like and we got we drove there together when he left me what so anyway after all of that I was like sure just give me the bill right um he gives me the bill and I'm about to pay it and the dude pops out of a corner he was like oh no just i just you know i got i just want to see what do you know that i should have broken up with him right then yes but i didn't i continued to date this idiot are you saying he he was testing you what what what test is this i wanted to fail the shit i want i want to fail every test like this what yes he just let us that's crazy and the guy so let me tell you how how wild it was the waiter was so uncomfortable he was like i don't want to get involved in this he was like

this is this is not what i do um he's and he didn't even he was scared to even tell me that the dude, quote, left. Okay. So the rest of the dating relationship, was that a red flag for the rest of the disaster? He never did that again. But I remember getting in the car to go home. I should have right there just took an Uber home and never talked to him again. Yeah. We got in the car

and I don't know what happened did he think it was funny or he was testing you he thought it was funny what what part of that was funny

right no part of that is funny right yeah dude you've lost and it bye

I should have said bye yeah yeah yes but I did not anyway this is this is we need to tell these guys out here don't ever do that it's not cute it's not a test it's not funny if you don't want to pay if it's a first date like that's the impression you want to leave on this woman right exactly yeah and it's i mean i if i was in that scenario as the woman, I would not have just got up and left.

I would have been like, oh, you know, I would have been a little more understanding. Yeah. But she's not wrong for leaving. No. And it's because of dudes like that, that we get up and leave. Yeah. Because y'all out here playing games for what? Right.

No one has time for this. Right. Right. Sheesh. And that's what creates mistrust in like dating relationships anyway. Right. And that's what's what creates mistrust in like dating relationships anyway. I think people go into dating just automatically looking for the wrong thing. Women don't need you to eat. Like, you know what I'm saying? Well, there's some women that. Oh, that do. That do.

That's true. Right. So then I take that back. Yeah. Okay, Giselle doesn't need for you to pay for my food. First of all, he left a $10 tip. What? So how much was the bill?

The bill was what? $50. Yeah. So this is not. This is shenanigans. Like where were y'all eating? This is Mimi. Mimi, you lying.

This was you. You went out on a date. This was Mimi. This had to have been like Fridays. It could have been Friday. Yeah. For a $10 tip. Applebee's.

Right. Y'all both got the, they both got the special. What was the special? The special cost, what, $14? The soup, salad, appetizer, and entree. And a drink. For $9.99. And you get a drink.

Two-for-one drinks. Get out of here, dude. Oh, God. Leave us alone. This is what I asked for y'all to just stop. But there are some women that do definitely date dudes just to go to dinner. Just to go eat. Yeah.

And I have heard a lot of guys say, like, they're sick of it. they're sick of just constantly just taking women out to dinner and then they don't they never like see them again i'm gonna digress real quick yeah and i'm gonna come out the rabbit hole so i was talking to a guy and he said he this has happened to three of his friends um because i need for guys to beware i'm letting y'all know i'm i'm paying i'm i'm giving back i i y'all know I'm paying I'm giving back y'all been mad at me about the beards now I want to give back it's a PSA another PSA okay so guy has been on a bar drinking sees a beautiful woman they get to chit-chatting his last drink he has he gets to a hotel they go to a room whatever happened in that last drink oh they put something in their drink. So the girl and the bartender are in on it.

Oh, yeah. If you do it yourself. I don't know. But that's crazy.

You even have to. The bartender is in on it. The bartender is in on it. But listen, that's a hustle. Right. I see. When that was explained to me, I was like, oh, I get that. Yeah.
