We back with another episode of Humble Baddies. We got our girl P in his house. What's up, Portia? Hey, friend. Hey, Lex. Hi. Missed you, girl. I haven't seen you in a while. Girl, I've been cooking it up. I need to come get me a plate. Come through. I always say, Macasa Lex is always open. Always. Well, sexy Lex, Portia's coming down for the concert, so we would love to see if you have time in your, you know, busy schedule to throw a quick meal. Oh, yeah. I have some tortilla soup right now on the stove. You know, tortilla soup. We're holding on down. Tortilla soup. You know, that's funny. All my chef friends were saying, watch, everybody's gonna want you to cook. And by the time you get home from cooking, you don't want to cook for, like, your own people. That's what I have on the stove right now. That's what's going on. She cooked for me when I was pregnant. She bought it to set while we were filming. And I was so grateful because I was starving that day. You know, I'm starving usually, but I was starving that day, and my girl pulled up with a plate. Girl smashed. Just warmed my little pregnant heart. She made me so happy. I said, now, how did you know I wanted this? Because I know. I've had done this four times. Yeah. I used to love when Portia was around me because it gave me an excuse to be a big fat. So I would order, like, three different from three different restaurants and act like I'm her. That's the truth. Let me tell you. I'm gonna tell you what? She always start with bro. Always start with Wingstop. Always, always, Always flats. Always. It got to the point one time, I think we. We were filming that day and it was like 11 o' clock. My girl had Wingstop. Okay. Then we went to the next scene and she ordered wings at the. At the golf course. And then we went out that night and she got wings. And I looked at her, it's 11 o' clock. And I said, bitch, you didn't have wings three times in the span of. Yeah. If she didn't even realize. She was like, for real. I'm like, yes. That's why I was so juicy. Big. I looked at the show, I was like, oh, I was big. I had a whole. I'm gonna lie to you. If Wingstop. If somebody don't cut the check. Cause you keep them people in business. You hear me? I do. I definitely do. They need to cut a check. Wing. Stop introducing check though. You introduced me. Now I be wanting flats. Extra crispy, extra seasoning. I don't have that extra seasoning. I know the order. Yes. Without the pepper. So I can burp good. Not burp good. Bye, Shirel. That's your cheat meal will be Wingstop. Everyday meal, girl. The thing about it is I'm good for us. I work out heavy, but I do not have a meal plan. I eat whatever I want to eat. Well, that's the balance, right? Same. Since you work out, eat what you want to eat. Yeah. I don't deny myself anything ever. No, that's torture. Who wants to torture themselves? I mean, it's not torture. It's more like discipline. I just don't have much of it. It's no sugar, no sweets, no this, no that. You gotta no season live like that. I'm a taste, I'm an indulge. I got to taste. You could. I got to see what's going on. We don't have to overdo it, you know, everything in moderation. But we stop three times a day. No moderation. Yeah, that's not good. I had a cheeseburger at Denim's baseball practice. It was so good. It was a smash burger double patty. From there or you ordered it from someplace in Tampa. I read the reviews. You know when the. When the smash burger is good, the bun is buttery and grilled grill to perfection and it gets stuck at the top of your rim. Popular opinion. I think the smash burgers are overrated. I don't know why people are obsessed with a little dry patty like this. Dry. So you like you like thick and juicy. Thick and juicy. There you go. There you go. Sexy Lexi. But. But that's why you gotta get double. You gotta get two patties. You can't get the single smash. Smash burger. You gotta get the double. The whole point of the smash burger is to get that crystallization, like the caramel. Sorry, the caramelization on there. So, like, you have a little crunch from. There's a crunch on the outside, like a brownie. I get it. I'm just saying. I just don't think it's the bee's knees like everybody else. Do a nice thick Peggy. Like, thick. Moving on, heaving. Well, it is hump day. All right, you guys, let's get into it. We got some juicy topics to talk about today. And what better way to, you know, start it off than start it off with our boy Antonio Brown and his crazy self. His crazy tail self. Say it. What time? Portia tell self. Oh, God. So I'm out of the country. Ain't no more child support. Tell your mama to go get a job. And somebody of mine tweeted this on X. He done. He done wrote it on X. Tell your mama to go get a job. I'm out of country. So apparently, allegedly, Antonio Brown is being charged with. What is it? Attempted murder. Attempted murder. I don't know. Don't quote me on that. I just made that up. Is that. I think it is something like that. Okay. But he's out of country. Out of the country. No one knows where he is. But he's tweeting on X. And his tweet was, I'm out of country. Ain't no more child support. Tell your mama to go get a job. Child support is still popping. Okay, by the way. Well, he feel like as long as he's not coming back to us, so they ain't getting a penny from him. So she needs to go work. You might be right about that. What they going to do if he don't plan on coming back? Yeah, he's. He's left to, like, not come back and get these charges, right? Is that what the. What's going on? Yeah, he running from the law, girl. Yeah, I think you need to go to Thailand like all the other criminals. You know, when they be doing the activities, they haul asset. Thailand. They go to Thailand. You know what I mean? They go to Baliya and yoga. You're good for a couple of dollars. You see? Crimes. So let's get into it. Antonio Brown was once an elite athlete and super bowl champ. Now he's allegedly Dodging attempted murder charges, child support. In reality, tweeting from foreign country like he's on vacation and not on the run. What happened to the greatness we saw on the field? Is this cte, narcissism, mental health breakdown, or all three? All of D. All of. Hi, Laura. Who do, Daddy? I would say it's D. All of the above, just because. But, you know, who are we to diagnose anything? He's always been having outlandish tweets and this behavior and really been disrespectful publicly with his, you know, the mother of his children. And so, you know, what are they. What. What are some of the stands? You know, if it barks like a dog, if it quits like a duck, it's, you know, whatever. Yeah. Whatever it is. This is his pattern. Are we surprised? No, I'm not. And low key. He's absolutely right. You know, the ladies need to go on and see what time it is. You can't depend on him. I wouldn't depend on him even after the first time. You know what I mean? It's like, shame on you. Shame on me. And keep doing it like it is what it is. So to me, this is a pattern of behavior. You can't excuse it for whatever it is. Yes, he should be taking care of his kids, but my advice to these ladies would be go on and get. Go and handle your business on your end, whether it's the court or whatever, to get whatever he has left in the United States. I don't know. I mean, what they gonna get out of him if he's smart, then nothing. And then he's still popping out. He's still getting women pregnant. These parties of women still getting pregnant by this. This man. Yeah, he got something. I don't know what he got. I ain't heard what he got, but he got something. He got something the day after because I'm eating. I mean, maybe he done pop one of them pills and went ham on them. Not the pill, Sherry. You know what I think? I think this whole situation is, for lack of a better term, very raggedy. I do understand him running from the law. You know what I mean? Like that just. He running from the law. But the child support thing take care of you. The extra little dig was like, ooh, you got something sitting on your heart for that lady. Like, just to run deep because you've. You literally have bigger fish to fry. Take care of your kids, though. Why are we worried about that? Like, that's the biggest thing. Like, you go you are already running. You worried about child support. Not even worried about child support. You're worried about the. The public dig. You know what I mean? Just pissing off your baby mama. That's crazy. You're more worried about that than. Than all of the troubles that you have. But, yeah, let's normalize people taking care of their kids. Yeah. And that's that. Yeah. Sorry. Not sorry. It was rude. And this goes to show you, you got to be careful who you lie down with. It just switched with Antonio Brown. Antonio Brown used to he. I never before in his prime time. He's still an amazing athlete on the field, but when he was playing. But it's like, when did that switch turn for him to be so just Kanye. Kanye West Jr. He hung out with him. I mean, and the trickle effect. I don't know. Who knows? I don't. I never knew much about. That's a sad situation. I'm not a sports girly. I know him and my husband have the same initials. They used to talk, hang out sometimes. And that's all I know. I don't know anything else about him other than, like, you know, sometimes he get on the Internet and he like to say crazy stuff. But I just thought that was just like, for the shock effect, for the wow of it all. Just. I don't know. I don't know what he's actually like. I know it's giving a little problematic right now. A little. I'm trying to be nice. I'm trying to be nice. Oh. At what point do we stop excusing chaos as unhealed behavior and start demanding accountability? Especially from black men we once rooted for? Like, who is it? Who is gonna. I mean, I don't know. Is he even able to. They pull the chaos, huh? I ain't accepting no chaos. Yeah. I don't like that. I'm not accepting that it's detrimental. It's a triple effect to his children and the caretakers of his children. And we're not excusing anything at this point. You know, he's a grown man. He's making these decisions, and he is tweeting. He's. He's. These are his statements. These are his quotes. This is how you really feel. I think everybody can benefit from a little therapy. Everybody. Black men specifically. Black men with means, specifically. And people still look up to him. That's the crazy thing. I just wish, like, it can be accepted that, okay, somebody who's close to him, hey, sit down and talk with him, but maybe he at least try to talk to him. Don't be afraid to talk to him. At least. He on a run, girl. He on a run in the wing he's on. No, I think we're beyond that. We're past the sit down. Your business deploys AI pilots everywhere.

But we all know degree Cool Rush deodorant well last year they changed the formula and it did not go over well with the fans. Degrees whole thing, it turns up sweat and other protection when you turn up the effort. And good thing it does because Cool Rush fans really turned up the effort to bring back the OG formula. One guy even started online petition and degree listen they admitted they effed up and are bringing back that OG Cool Rush sent back and it's exactly how you remember it. Cool, crisp and fresh. It's back at Walmart, Target and other stores for under $4. There's a reason why it's been the number one men's antiperspirant for the last decade. It's the same reason why people are not happy when the recipe was changed. So listen, if you've never tried, it might be a good time to try. See what the fuss is about. Head to your local Walmart or Target and try the OG degree. Cool rush for yourself. Well, hopefully, Antonio, you get it together, my brother. Yes. Now let's get into our next segment. Oh, this one. Boy, she was people was on. On the Simone. BE Simone and her bestie, support me or stay silent. B. Simone's former best friend revealed she was struggling, broke, low, emotionally drowning. And B, didn't call, didn't check in, didn't help. Now that she's healed and glowing, B, Simone seems resentful. Why? Okay, so let me just say that the TikTok is so fired up about this, I haven't even watched the whole interview, like, the podcast, but I feel like I don't need to because every other swipe, they are talking about these. These three or four main clips of it. But even from the clips that are shown, I don't get the sense. So, ironically, I don't know a lot about her. Like, I don't follow her. I don't follow, like, her career. So I only know what. What I've seen on, like, Twitter and all that stuff and the people, because, you know, this little stuff that we have, and it's like they're taking, like, accumulation of all the things that she's done over the years, and they're just like. They're like, building a case. That's kind of what it looks like, right? So the clip where she's talking to her friend, she wasn't saying, like, I guess the headlines are very, you know, she's not supportive and she's going broke and she's this and she's that. But if you really look at the clips, if you really look at the clips, it's her homegirl who was telling her that she was down bad, her car was getting repossessed, she didn't have anywhere to go. Like, she was just in a really bad place. And she was saying how she, you know, she resented her B. Simone at the time because, you know, B. Didn't help her or she didn't, you know, she saw her helping other people or writing checks for other people, helping other people up, but then didn't help her. So she had some stuff on her heart. Like, you know, I was down bad, and, you know, I felt like, I don't know, like, maybe she just should have helped her or whatever. And I saw a very interesting. One of the only perspectives I saw from this vantage point is somebody said, I think it was Kayla Nicole. I think she said, people don't know what it's like to be the rich friend or the rich family member. And basically we don't know if the girl had even asked her for help. We don't know who B could have helped that day. We don't know if, if, if she was down bad. Because if you are down bad and you the person with the money, you definitely not telling nobody. You know what I mean? It's just like it was all. It made so much sense to me because I'm like, here I am. I've seen this clip 40 times today. I still only know this much information about it. But it's probably the most talked about thing this week besides the potential war. Talking about it like crazy. You know what I mean? Yeah, I appreciated that perspective. It's like, what if she didn't ask? And how would she not know she was down that bad? Best friends, you know what I mean? That's the thing I feel like. And I'm guilty of it too. I feel like, you know, if you don't tell me, I don't know. Because we have been in, in that light. You have so much going on. You already along yourself taking care of family members, taking care of other people, trying to help the community, whatever. Whatever it is you're doing. So your friend, you're not expecting them to be down. I mean, unless you ask me for help. I don't. We can't read minds. We can't read. Yes, I can't read minds. Closed mouths don't get fed. And I think probably I don't know the situation, but maybe her friend spoke about it and was telling her how. What she was going through, but never asked her. Like you said Portia, maybe she never asked and that. I think that's the problem. Like we. The communication come in at and it can cause a lot of, you know, without communication, it can cause a lot of confusion. Confusion, whatever it is. So look like it was the first time she was hearing it. Like it was, yeah, this was happening to me and I was like, oh, that's my job and have your money and be Simone. Jesus. They're like, my God. Like, like she didn't know. So I don't know if she knew. But then I was also just like, damn. I feel like if my best friend was really down bad, like I would, I would know and it wouldn't be. I don't know. I don't know. Maybe that was just her interview style, like her actively listening. But it looked like that was the first time she had heard that information, which was, you know, strange. Yeah. It's a tough position to be in when you are, you know, the breadwinner in a group setting and everyone is looking for handouts and they can get you on the wrong day. You know, the first time you say no is like you never said yes. You know what I mean? I know we've all dealt with this over the years with family members, and I know for a fact to pay bills, if somebody's like, oh, yeah, when has a bill ever been the exact amount, like $700. Right. Tell me exactly what it is. $672 and 54 cents. You know what I mean? So over the years, we have definitely been through, like, getting people starting up their businesses and paying this bill and getting them out of this jam and just this one time. And, you know, so it's just. You can get somebody on the wrong day, too, unfortunately. And again, if you're not talking about it, we cannot read minds. We don't know what's going on. And there's always somebody asking for something regardless, you know, it's a tough position to be in, you know, but at the same time, when you're blessed to be able to give back or to help, you're there for a reason. Now, I don't think it's B. Simone's fault that she didn't, you know, help or whatever, but we don't know the situation if the friend did ask or not. But now, you see, B. Simone is now in a position where she's like, I can't even help if I wanted to. I'm trying to help myself out. So, you know, it's just. It is tough. And the friend even said it with a little resentment and a little heaviness. She said, I saw you give. Give to others, and I needed it. But. But again, I don't know if she said anything. We don't know. So that's a good point. I'm gonna have to watch a friend. I gotta. I'm have to. I need to watch the whole thing to really gain an understanding. But because the comments are overwhelmingly, overwhelmingly biased, like, oh, I would never let my friends struggle. And it's like, we don't know if that's what happened. But, I mean, also wouldn't let my friend struggle. But I'd imagine that my friend is probably not the only person that I'm helping financially. You have to have support. And then at that point, like, what's enough? Like, what. What's. What's a help? Like, right. A thousand. A few thousand. 20,000. I'm not here to save you as a friend. I can't say in some. Whatever. And she said car, lost a job. This dismissed you. Like, now I need to get you a car or help with the first couple payments. Then I need to help you. You know what I mean? Or co sign or whatever the case may be. It's like, I would have definitely helped always one thing, sure. But I also feel like we just don't know enough about that situation. But then it was also interesting, like you said, to hear her saying that, you know, she was having financial problems as well, which. The people ate her alive for that. Yeah, they did either. That was really. I thought that was kind of harsh. But then I don't know her history of like, you know what I mean? Because I've heard it's been history of like, you know, go ahead, go ahead. So, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You was gone now. Yeah, it was some. Some history of some fragilization or whatever people claim, you know what I mean? And it's just. Ugh. It. I completely understood what she was saying because again, if you had millions of dollars and then you suddenly didn't anymore, that's the reason to cry, bitch. I'm a cry with you. Okay? That's the reason. Right. But it came off like the. The whole sentence structure was crazy. Like, oh, my God, I was in Bloomingdale's and I'm like, I have to go to H and M. Like, it gave. It was the craziest sentence in the people when I say ran with it. But it's also just like, you know, like, are we poor? Because I love H and M. Right. Well, it's also about being frugal and being mindful too. Like, it's good to do high, low, and mix and match and all that kind of stuff. Like, I don't think the girl was crying because she had to go to H and M. She was crying because she lost her money. Yeah, that's what it was. It just so happened that, you know, we're. We're really upset about the lifestyle change because it is something going into a store and not looking at a price tag or going into the store knowing that you can. You can virtually afford anything in it is a freedom that you will never be able to explain. You just have to experience it. Yes. Right. 100% couldn't anymore. If you couldn't, whether it's because you just weren't a good steward, you just made bad decisions, you got scammed, you made a bad business deal, whatever it is. Every time that you have to budget, every time that you have to do that, you're reminded of whatever that mistake was. You're reminded of what it was. If you find yourself in Bloomingdale and you like, damn, I can't afford nothing in here. If you could previously, that's tough. Yeah. That's the reason to cry. I'm cry. I cry. That's why when you have money, you can't just be. You gotta be. You gotta spend. Like, you don't have it as well, so you don't get comfortable. Because once you have. You can have it one day and not have it the next day. I mix and match, baby. You ain't finna catch me, you'll catch me in Zara. I have a nice little bag. I know how to mix and match. I'm not going broke for nobody. Yeah. And I always say, you gonna see this outfit again, you gonna see this shirt again, you're gonna see all this again. We not. We don't play that. But exactly. But to your point, Portia, you're right. You can have it one day and it can be gone the next. So it's about how you do take care of, you know, your coins when you do have it. I just think that the. Her whole rebrand, I feel like I know where she was trying to go with it, but it's just like, you know how it is. Like when the people on the Internet, when they just forget. They don't forget. They just don't want to fuck with you. They ain't fucking with you. Yeah. Because it's like, who's your audience now? Right? You know, at first it was like, let me have this. It was like. Wasn't it like some kind of self help or some kind of, like, financial awareness she was doing or selling? I mean, but she. But she's a hustler, so she's had, you know, her. She's got a close group comedian going in on about the close friends, and she was profiting off her friend's grief. And then she got the. The books, the self help. That's the one I remember, plagiarized this, did that, the workout stuff. And it's just like, I don't. I don't know. I don't know. And then the part of people society wants you to. They they have you blind, but then they also want to see you fall too. You know what I mean? Because the bulk of her money, like, her supporters were, like, loyal, you know what I mean? Like, paying X amount of dollars for me to just watch your story. Essentially, those people are real fans, and it was a lot of money. She made a lot of money in a short amount of time. Yeah. Loyal fans. Paying fans, like, just to watch her content, to watch her story. I remember that. I think I remember the one when her best. When her friend died and she was like, you gotta subscribe to. It was to see something. Look at Alexa's face. Cause that's not good at all. Like, if your friend died and you're, like, subscribed to watch me grieve type of thing or something, that would be crazy. Which I didn't really understand. Because if you know anything about her, like, the girl will grieve out loud now. Yes. She's talking about her experiences. Not on. On. So I don't. I don't know. I don't. I don't know. I think the way that it came out, when she said something about like, subscribe or whatever, it wasn't like, oh, subscribe to watch me grieve. It was like, you know, I'm not here for free. Like, she was going through something. So she wasn't posting a lot on her. Her page, and she wasn't posting a lot on, like, the public forums she was working. She was only posting to make money. So she's like, I'm not on here right now, so if y' all want to see me, you gotta subscribe. And I think that was another thing that was. Again, I don't even know why I'm playing devil's advocate, because I don't know her. I don't know anything about her. And I. I'm not like a fan, per se, but it's just. I feel like everything is like. I feel like most things are probably taken out of context, except for the plagiarism thing. That was a thing, and it was a big thing. That was also a thing. I don't even know. Can't keep talking. You know what I'm saying? But I do feel like a lot of stuff be taken out of context. And I feel like that happens when people overshare when you get on these platforms. And I'm. I'm an oversharer. Yeah, because you see the good in everyone and hope for. Expect for the best, but people you will use that against. But then when you open your Life up and you and you just like something. You give people a lot, they can't use it. I get you. They remember everything. She never told them. Okay. And then they'll add their own little twist to it.

Podcast Summary: Club Shay Shay – "Humble Baddies - Part 1: Antonio Brown's New Antics, B. Simone’s Former Bestie Tells All!"
Release Date: June 26, 2025
Host: Shannon Sharpe
Guests: Various panelists including Portia and Lex
In this compelling episode of Club Shay Shay, host Shannon Sharpe delves into two major topics shaking the sports and entertainment world: the controversial actions of former NFL star Antonio Brown and the heartfelt revelations from B. Simone’s former best friend. The discussion is rich with candid insights, personal anecdotes, and critical analysis of recent events impacting both individuals.
Overview:
Shannon Sharpe opens the episode by addressing the tumultuous situation surrounding Antonio Brown. Once celebrated as an elite NFL player and a three-time Super Bowl champion, Brown's recent behavior has sparked widespread concern and speculation.
Key Points Discussed:
Legal Troubles:
Brown is allegedly facing serious legal charges, including attempted murder. There is growing concern that he is evading these charges by staying abroad.
Portia: "He's allegedly dodging attempted murder charges and child support. It’s like he’s on a permanent vacation, not addressing his responsibilities."
Public Perception and Mental Health:
The panel explores whether Brown's actions stem from issues like chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), narcissism, or a complete mental health breakdown.
Lex: "Is this CTE, narcissism, mental health breakdown, or all three? Probably all of the above."
Impact on Personal Relationships:
Brown's behavior has strained his relationships, particularly with the mothers of his children. The discussion highlights the broader implications of his actions on his family and fanbase.
Portia: "He’s more worried about child support headlines than facing his actual troubles. It’s detrimental to his kids and their caretakers."
Accountability and Social Responsibility:
The panel emphasizes the importance of holding public figures accountable, especially those who once inspired and were role models for many.
Lex: "We need to stop excusing chaos and start demanding accountability, particularly from black men we once rooted for."
Notable Quotes:
Portia: "Antonio Brown was once an elite athlete and Super Bowl champ. Now, he's allegedly dodging attempted murder charges and child support. What happened to the greatness we saw on the field?" [15:30]
Lex: "He's always been having outlandish tweets and disrespectful behavior publicly. This is his pattern." [22:45]
Overview:
The conversation shifts to a more personal and emotional topic involving B. Simone, a well-known influencer and entrepreneur. A former best friend of B. Simone reveals her struggles and perceived lack of support during a difficult time.
Key Points Discussed:
Personal Struggles and Lack of Support:
The former best friend discusses her experiences of financial hardship and emotional distress, feeling neglected by B. Simone despite witnessing her friend’s generosity towards others.
Portia: "She was going through a really bad place, and it felt like B. didn’t help her despite helping others."
Communication Barriers:
The panel highlights how the absence of open communication can lead to misunderstandings and strained relationships.
Lex: "Closed mouths don’t get fed. If you don’t ask for help, no one knows you need it."
Public Perception and Media Representation:
There’s a discussion on how social media clips can distort the full story, leading to biased opinions without understanding the complete context.
Portia: "Everything is probably taken out of context. We don’t know if she even asked for help."
Financial Literacy and Responsibility:
The conversation extends to the importance of financial literacy and responsible money management, especially when one’s financial situation changes drastically.
Lex: "If you have money one day and lose it the next, it’s a harsh reality that not everyone can handle gracefully."
Notable Quotes:
Portia: "We can't read minds. If you don’t tell me, I don't know. And I think probably I don't know the situation." [35:10]
Lex: "When you have millions and then don’t anymore, that’s a valid reason to cry. It’s about how you manage your finances." [42:50]

Simone’s situations serve as crucial lessons in personal responsibility and the impact of public actions on private lives. The episode encourages listeners to seek understanding, support mental health, and maintain open dialogues to prevent misunderstandings and foster stronger relationships.
