[Dear Media | September 18, 2025]

---

Episode Overview

This episode of Unsupervised with Syd & TP is a vibrant, freewheeling exchange between best friends and former teammates Syd Colson and Theresa Plaisance (TP). Fully in character, the hosts wander from philosophical reflections on nature and human connection, to discussions of Black excellence at the Emmys and New York Fashion Week, to deep, hilarious digressions about workplace shade, manifestation, readers’ advice, and their famously deep voices. This episode is a quintessential 2 a.m.-style group chat: part comedy, part therapy, always unscripted, and completely off-topic in the best possible way.

  “She said he was brilliant and she didn’t feel like he was applying himself because she knew that he was brilliant. And that was so necessary…”
  (29:54, Sid)

Transcript

[TP]

I like to thank Julia for drama. Mean. Because I'm feeling a lot better than I was a little while ago.

[Sid]

Yeah. I thought I was about to have to do the show on my own, honestly. Or were you just sitting right there in discomfort? I'm just talking, like, a wave of.

[TP]

Like, energy, so I'm like, wow, I think it's working. Also, no TV has been turned on since I've been here. We've just. We've hit our word count.

[Sid]

Well, yeah. Because our cold open is supposed to be 30 seconds to a minute and 30. We just spoke for at least five love.

[TP]

Yeah. And we were trying to get to the theme song. Got the themes on. Just turn it on. Just start it, please. I really wish we could listen to the theme song because I don't know if you guys have your own podcast or not, but, like, you don't get to listen to the theme song that's added later. So unfortunately, we're going to have to play that on our own after we finish filming.

[Sid]

Unsupervised.

[Unsupervised Rapper]

Unsupervised. Unsupervised. Unsupervised. Yeah. Yes. Yes. Yeah, we say what we want and yeah, we say what we feel? Sitting tmp of the mix and they be keeping it real on brand, off topic, out of pocket? Anything you need, they got it? Why don't you shout me? You know they gonna block up when it's game time and you know I'm gonna block them and we cover everything like ho. Harder than us and yeah, we looking down on haters? Cause they smaller than us and yeah, my flow is so damn sick I be coughing it up? You said that we gonna fly? Well, then I'm calling your blood.

[Sid]

All right, we gotta learn all the words so we could perform it. Well, you know, as I said, I like when you do this. This part.

[TP]

All right, y', all. So we want to take a moment of gratitude today. Just generally and specifically, too. And more specifically, our sponsors. We knew earlier before the show, that we didn't have sponsors, so we already marked it so we didn't have to get up. So there it is.

[Sid]

Oh, psychic.

[TP]

See how that works?

[Sid]

Okay, so let's get right into. You know, I love when you. When you do the sponsors.

[TP]

It's a good segment.

[Sid]

Okay, so I saw this video over the weekend, and it was so interesting to me because I really don't think about it like this, but the girl was saying how, like, trees talk to you and, like, their roots will, like, protect you from things, like maybe danger ahead. Like, that's how people, a lot of people perceive it. Like, as I'm looking through the comments and looking stuff up and I'm like, oh, how interesting. Like, I really don't think about, like, our connectedness to trees. But it was also funny to me because I'm like, oh, I wonder what trees say. When I walk by, I, like, hear a whisper, like, lesbo. I'm like, who said that? I look over the trees like.

[TP]

Like, do you think a nail salon is bad? Walk into the forest.

[Sid]

It's like, dyke. I'm like, what?

[TP]

Who said that?

[Sid]

Who said that? Be the tree. Be the tree. I, like, walk by, hear it. Let's roll. Let's roll. What? Huh? Maybe I'm tripping. Like, there's no way. I think that would be really cool though, to have trees communicate with you. But the more stuff I was looking at, I did know about their connectedness with one another. Like trees connecting, talking to other trees. Like, getting nutrients. I think when a tree is dying and like, obviously we can look at tree branches and tell when a. When a tree is dying or like, what is the trunk too. I saw something so cool that I don't know if I heard it before and just don't think about it, but it was like, you look at human fingerprints and like a tree stump when you cut it, and if you have those side by side, it's like very connected, like, very similar.

[TP]

Yeah.

[Sid]

Somebody wrote something that I thought was like, very poignant. They're like, yeah, we're all connected. Look at your fingerprints and tree trunk. Same blueprint. Look at your heart. The veins are like the roots of a tree. It's so beautiful. But we're all souls in different vessels or bodies. But despite our differences, we share the same purpose. We're all connected, but we've been pushed away from that, sadly. And it's like, yeah, we should be more connected with nature. Because you think about times where you go out in the wilderness, like, do you feel a distinct difference in, like, your mood? Like being in the sun or being by water? Like, it, it impacts me. I know I can feel when it.

[TP]

No, definitely, like, just like getting out and getting away from human made things just feels kind of like renewing in a sense. Like you're going in and you're feeling like fresh, fresh air. Especially with like a really nice breeze. You're like, I can't believe this is all natural.

[Sid]

Yeah. And free and freeing and literally free too. Like, it doesn't cost you. Just step outside and get it.

[TP]

Yes, it is Affordable. But nothing feels better than going to a beach, going to like just like an open grass field. Just like touching grass. I know that's a saying now, but for real.

[Sid]

But it's the same for a reason.

[TP]

Touch some grass.

[Sid]

Sometimes touch grass and get connected to something else. Because you're online way too much.

[TP]

Because we're all just like walking vibrations. We're all on a molecular level. We're all built of of tiny cells. So there's something that connects us to every single thing on this planet when it comes down to like a molecular level. So it's not like the most far out thing to think that you could be in touch. Like if the moon can dictate what the ocean waters are doing. And also if people can say that Mercury's in retrograde, like in field changes. And if like nurses in the ER can say that on a full moon, you really do get some of the craziest stories that you heard of. There is something there.

[Sid]

And they've been working there for 20 years. Like, why won't you accept that on a scientific level they have like a control, like they have an experiment they've been doing, or like statistics that they've taken. And I see that on a full moon, this keeps happening. No other day during the year.

[TP]

Right.

[Sid]

But every 20 years that I've been working on a full moon, very crazy things happen.

[TP]

Crazies come out.

[Sid]

You don't even have to do that, like research on your own. You literally have somebody just telling you, just listen, just listen, Stop being stupid.

[TP]

Bring back listening.

[Sid]

Bring back listening and end stupidity.

[TP]

Yeah. Wow, that's deep, Sid.

[Sid]

That's what he said.

[TP]

But I do, I really do.

[Sid]

That's what she said. Yeah, either one.

[TP]

She would definitely say it.

[Sid]

Yeah, sorry.

[TP]

Or they would.

[Sid]

On to our next topic. Hot off the bench. So this is a new topic. If you haven't been listening to our podcast, which is a real problem because we did this one before.

[TP]

Do we call it off the Bench, though?

[Sid]

It was maybe off the bench.

[TP]

Whatever. Like, what sounds best. I think maybe hot off the bench. Maybe from this point on it could be hot off the bench.

[Sid]

But they also need to realize whether I say hot off the bench, straight off the bench, fresh off the bench, off the bench. If you hear off the bench, you know what segment it is. I'm not gonna have two that are.

[TP]

So close to the end.

[Sid]

So our listeners need to wake up and use your heads.

[TP]

It's early. Touch some grass. Don't and don't. Don't piss Off, Sid, man, we can't get started off like this.

[Sid]

I hate, I hate having to yell at y'. All.

[TP]

Oh, you good?

[Sid]

So. All right. Over the weekend, a pretty big fight happened. We're not boxing fans.

[TP]

We're not boxing girlies. That's not.

[Sid]

We're not. Okay. But we pay attention at a basic level to see what's going on culturally. So. Terence Crawford made history with his victor over Canelo Alvarez. Terrence Crawford became the first male boxer to capture three Unified Division titles with that victory by unanimous decision. And he won the Super Middleweight championship before a record crowd of 70, almost 70,500 people. So he went down to a knee before the decision was announced and wept after he was like named the winner. And after seeing this interview resurface of his dad telling his mom he was going to be a world champ, that is cut to him, his mom saying, I told him he wasn't going to be shit.

[TP]

So we're just leading with tough love.

[Sid]

Like a stark difference in your parents. And not really in the way you're expecting, but like when we went and watched the like, original piece, not just the clip, the mom said that she used to pay kids in the neighborhood to fight him. Like, I bet you can't be Bud if you think you could be Bud. Line up. You'll get $10 if you could beat him. Marty said it was like, so you were doing like chicken fighting.

[TP]

But with children.

[Sid]

But listen, it's not the way that I would ever raise my child. But when I was watching the clip, it became apparent that this mom, like, because he talked about how she wouldn't really hug growing up. She didn't kiss. She would. She. It was tough love all the time.

[TP]

Yeah.

[Sid]

There was no like compliment sandwich. Like, oh, sweetie, I love that outfit. But like, you need to, you know, pull up your pants. Or like, you know. But I love it though. It's none of that change them ugly clothes. So it was just like hard all the time. So when you're seeing her talk, I'm like, okay, this lady probably came from an environment of not receiving any love and maybe receiving the opposite.

[TP]

Yeah.

[Sid]

Because that's like, that's wild. But she still, she loves him.

[TP]

And honestly, she got the outcome that she thought she would. He is a multi time world champion in three different weight classes.

[Sid]

But was it despite her?

[TP]

No, I think it was just to prove that he could. If he wasn't, when he was the, then I would just be like, okay, you got to think so now.

[Sid]

Yeah, okay. Yeah. He said It. He does it for him at this point, like, he's just doing stuff to prove to himself. But at a certain level, if you have a really tough parent, a really tough coach, at some level, people try to prove them wrong or, like, show them, like, you're not going to be right. Except for the people whose teachers say you ain't going to be nothing. And then you're not anything because you didn't try.

[TP]

There's also biases in the world where. But when it comes from your mother, I think it might be a little different.

[Sid]

But.

[TP]

There'S just different situations where people try to keep people down. It ends up motivating that fire inside.

[Sid]

Yeah.

[TP]

And honestly, this is an incredible feat. I'm not big into boxing, but his story is really incredible to me that. That he was able to overcome so much.

[Sid]

Yeah, no, it was. I'm still not going to watch boxing, but.

[TP]

No.

[Sid]

Good for him. He keeps getting it done. And he said he loves his mom and his mom loves him.

[TP]

That's beautiful.

[Sid]

So with that said, I mean, this is kind of going to go hand in hand with what we're talking about next. Just owed an ode to black Moms. There was a lot of black excellence at the Emmys. Was something we're going to loosely tie in Robert De Niro, because he's been with black women. He's. He got two black ex wives.

[TP]

Right.

[Sid]

Mixed kids. So we'll throw him in the ode to Black Moms. De Niro got himself.

[TP]

He also loves black moms.

[Sid]

He got on stage and people just say whatever. Like, I'm so looking forward to the point in my life where I just say whatever I feel like saying. Cause I've served my time on earth.

[TP]

Correct.

[Sid]

So, yeah, I can say this. He got on stage, he said, f. Donald Trump. I think he said it twice.

[TP]

He said it and then stood on it.

[Sid]

His message, too. And it's funny when you see people, if somebody says something controversial, you watch a crowd clap and you can tell people are clapping because you agree, clapping because you feel forced to clap. And the people who aren't clapping are just like.

[TP]

And then also the people that are, like, trying to start a standing ovation, like, getting other people to get up as well. Like, we see where you are on the spectrum. We definitely see we're peeping it. We can see certain eye movements, like, everything in that moment.

[Sid]

Right.

[TP]

I wonder if he did it because he wanted to see someone specifically. Like, did he say that just to get a reaction out of one person specifically? Would he do it like. Like, I want to know the levels as to why. What. What drew him. No, no, for real, because not many people are doing that.

[Sid]

The sociologist in me wants to know. I want to see what he did that for.

[TP]

Yeah, it be interesting if there was a story that, like, he just wanted to. He has a friend that he was questioning. Yeah, he was like, I really got to make sure that Steven is clean. Like, I'm gonna make this nice, award winning speech. I'm gonna make this point right? And I'm just peeping out Stephen, like, so I wonder if he got that answer.

[Sid]

Well, I don't know. It's funny to think about, though.

[TP]

It is very funny to think about.

[Sid]

Have you ever watched Severance?

[TP]

I've seen, like, a few episodes that you had on when we were at au. Like you were watching it then, and you did that thing where we watched, like, the same episode 16 times. So I've saw. I've seen a few.

[Sid]

Don't do that. Okay, well, you are missing out. Yeah, you need to go watch it in its fullness. But Tramell Tillman, who is Millichit, like, the boss of all of the people who have opted to, like, have the. The, like, severance to undergo severance, where, like, your work life gets split up between your per from your personal. So when you clock in to work, when they go in the elevator, like, you see their eyes change or whatever they go into. They, like, lose their memory from their personal life, private life. And then when you clock out of work, same thing happens. You don't remember what happened while you were at work or the people, Nothing. So he's just such a good character in the show. And there's this, like, Drumline scene that he did that probably, like, sealed the deal and him winning, like, Outstanding Supporting Actor. But it's just so good to see he's, like, shimmying and stuff. It was just you. You have to see it.

[TP]

Yeah, you gotta watch it.

[Sid]

And then we got. You got to report back another day. But he made history at the Emmys. He's the first black actor to win Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama series for his role as Milchick in Severance. And in his speech. You saw the speech? You didn't see it? I don't remember everything that he said in the beginning, but he said, my first acting coach was tough, but all gray mothers are. But it was like such a short speech. But it just made you emotional or. Made me emotional in the end. The way he, like, turned to look at her. Because then Some of the cats from Severance was also looking like to in her direction because like, how amazing must that be? Like, I don't know how old he is, but I'm guessing he's in like his 40s.

[TP]

Yep.

[Sid]

And he just won an Emmy and he wasn't a super known actor before this role, so your mother's got to be so proud.

[TP]

And she obviously knew that he was capable of doing great things, which is why he appreciates the tough love that was given and in that moment probably went full circle for them, which is really special. And I'm familiar with things that he's done in his roles with other things and I've always enjoyed him as an actor. So I really do want to check him out with I guess a bigger role. And obviously he did.

[Sid]

He's.

[TP]

Yeah, he's still. He did an award winning job.

[Sid]

He did an award winning job. All right, so from black Mothers to black History. Okay. A lot happened at New York Fashion Week. Lanny Smith, who is first of all the owner of Actively Black, but he's also from Houston, so that's important to mention. And if he's not from Houston, he played there and he's been like, he worked in high school there. So if he's not, it don't matter. Like Houston's in his blood, so that's like important to know cuz we ain't here. But his fashion show, he had like a lot of black trailblazers, black figures in, you know, black history that walked the Runway. He had Ruby Bridges, Malcolm X and MLK's daughters. Cecil Williams, the, the guy in that picture. So he walked the stage. It was just really crazy to see because people treat black history like it was this long. Like this thing that happened long ago that we shouldn't be talking about or like feeling like it's still having impact today. Even though we literally see the way our nation is operating right now. The division, the lack of empathy and compassion. Not even lack of just outright hate. Hate and evil in so many different sectors. Um, and you look and you see like Ruby Bridges, who helped integrate schools. She's like 71.

[TP]

Yeah. There's people that lived that are still here on this earth today that had.

[Sid]

To endure, that endured that kind of shit.

[TP]

That's crazy.

[Sid]

Like she's got white officers around her entering a school in New Orleans. But like, that's a little girl and people were like spitting at her, throwing at her. Could you, could you imagine under any circumstance seeing any kid of any color walking by and you're throwing stuff at them at a child when you're around adults, do you know I would never be friends with any of the people that I'm around in that moment? Because I would be like, oh, my God, I know. You were such a weirdo. Yeah, seriously, I had no fucking idea.

[TP]

She's just trying to learn how to do a simple addition. And you guys are spitting, throwing. Do you know the insanity that has to be in your mind for you to think that, to bring yourself to do that?

[Sid]

That's why propaganda and hate, all of these things are a real slippery slope into people becoming somebody that maybe you weren't actually before, but because of people you're around and things, you think that you'll lose all this stuff. Like, you just slowly stop having compassion. You slowly start leaning towards more of a side of, like, of hate.

[TP]

Yeah.

[Sid]

And it impacts every fiber of your thought. Being everything. It's a disease.

[TP]

It's sad because people just realize that, like, you're supposed to just lead with love. The more you get into your own problems, you get more sucked into you, you, you. When really there's so much around you that if you took some time to understand what somebody else is going through, your problem little less bad. You can build community. You can get to learn people around you. I don't understand a place where somebody doesn't want to get to know their neighbor or understand why or understand just differences. Because I think deep down, human beings are a lot more alike than we are different. And we're letting divisive things separate us and create this huge divide in our country. And the rhetoric and the. Just the overall everything, like, like brainwashing that's happening here is, like, very scary. And I'm.

[Sid]

It's literally like what we were just talking about. If we really are so similar to trees, do you think trees are, like, in the forest? Like, oh, I'm loving with that white tree. I don't like that. That yellow tree. Girl, come over here. Come over here. Like, what those trees?

[TP]

Those trees don't wash their hands.

[Sid]

Like, that's not happening. Like, we're much more similar than people think. I do think that there are very bad and evil people walking.

[TP]

I agree with you.

[Sid]

They're really good people. So you do need to have discernment. But for the most part, if people would drop all the other stuff that really isn't that important, at the end of the day, you will find commonality. But people are what? Stupid.

[TP]

I love when you say that.

[Sid]

We both get irritated. So some more crazy Stuff that happened. Eclipse and several other performers went to the Vatican. Went to the Vatican for a concert or, like, performance, whatever. And it was co directed by Pharrell and Andrea Bocelli, an Italian tenor. I looked that up.

[TP]

I'm bringing y' all facts, which is unlike us, really.

[Sid]

We just give a bunch of.

[TP]

You're on it today, Sid.

[Sid]

Thanks, girly. But that's the funniest thing. Like, people are like this. This is what happens when you have.

[TP]

A pope from Chicago with lineage to New Orleans. I'm like, this guy is through and through. He knows what it is.

[Sid]

Like, why are the clips performing at the Vatican? Never seen that.

[TP]

But honestly, I love the direction that the Vatican's going. I think these are really great choices that are being made. And, like, we love to see it.

[Sid]

Yeah. So it was part of this grace for the world concert, and I was looking it up, and it said that a lot of these performers and, like, thinkers were gathering to talk about, like, how AI should help be more, like, impactful for humanity, not just using it for, like, nonsense reasons, but we should be doing things to, like, build this world up and make it the best that it can be for us. And seeing that Pharrell was a part.

[TP]

Of it made so much sense.

[Sid]

So much sense.

[TP]

So, y', all. Sid has been. She said, like, a few times throughout this week that we should watch the Piece by piece for a documentary on Netflix and Because Marty showed me. Because Marty. Shout out to Marty for that one. Um, but it was. It was an interesting thing because it's been on my list for a while. I just haven't had the time to, like, sit down and really watch it. Like, there's been other shows that have popped up a man, do I regret not watching this earlier? Yeah, because it was so good and it was so fun to watch. Like, I do love a Lego documentary. I also love that. Yeah, Pharrell was like, yo, this is a Lego documentary. There was multiple times in the lock documentary that he would reference the fact that, like, can you believe that this is a Lego documentary? The fact that he loves that is also. Is very on brand for him.

[Sid]

Yeah, it was.

[TP]

But seeing this documentary and who Pharrell is, incredible. I didn't. Hey, I didn't realize. I.

[Sid]

Well, before we get there, like, this whole thing is about to take us into our segment called Deep Voices, Deeper combos.

So those. That was.

[Sid]

Man, it's just necessary. So many people. Somebody under this video will inevitably say, damn, their voice is deep. Damn them, man.

[TP]

And the babysitters come after them. Like, I've seen comments where, like, somebody's like, what's wrong with those women's voices? So at least they're acknowledging the fact that we're women.

[Sid]

But then somebody's like, no, them ain't women. And we're like, no, we're just having to watch this dialogue. But we're like, we are.

[TP]

There's like 130 comments underneath. And you're like, whoa, what's going on here? It's just.

[Sid]

We're like, yo, the video's blowing up. It's doing well. But, like, 132 of the 135 comments are just that one conversation about us being men.

[TP]

People are either asking why our voice is so deep and then people. Other people coming to our defense and then.

[Sid]

Or more people being like, I've seen men before.

[TP]

Doubling down. Doubling down. So.

[Sid]

So with that said, we just thought it was time we just combined the.

[TP]

Two things that are truly us. Deep conversation and deep voices.

[Sid]

Yeah, it just makes sense. So keep going. All right, we're going to talk about Pharrell and how he manifested so much in his life.

[TP]

Pharrell. I like this part. And the. You have to rewind this part or you wanted to rewind this part to, like, understand the wording that he used. Yeah, it was so interesting because he was like, I was an odd kid. And people told me that I was an odd kid. And it shattered my spirit. And it goes to show in the beginning of the movie how he always knew that he was a bit different. He has syntha.

[Sid]

Synesthesia.

[TP]

Synesthesia. And that is where your mind's eye can see color when you are listening to music.

[Sid]

And.

[TP]

And there was just so many different things about him that he didn't ever fit into a box. And he was in an area in Virginia beach where he was just around his family a lot he was around the friends that he wanted around. He was very particular about who he surrounded himself with from a very, very early age. And he did things that he loved. And he also seemed to be the type of kid that found value and everything around him.

[Sid]

Yeah, like he was a skateboarder in an area where black people were not skating. Like, what is this black kid doing skateboarding? But like that's what he wanted to do. He, he was what I think Carl Sagan, he said he used to listen to like a bunch of, or watch him a bunch on tv and he loved the way that he explained the world and it made sense to him. And so, you know, he'd be running in the, you know, apartment complex, flying a rocket or whatever. He would be like, oh my God, he's odd, like he's weird. But he knew what he was inspired by from a very young age. I found that really, really interesting because he, he talked about finding school difficult when he was younger and he had anxiety. He was like switching from two teachers when you're in sixth grade to having like eight when you're in the seventh grade was like a lot.

[TP]

Right.

[Sid]

So I just wouldn't show up to stuff sometimes or just had him anxious. So the teacher or like the principal called his mom and was saying like, he has enough credits to pass, you know, or the grades to pass. And she was like, no, he needs to do it again. So he had to repeat seventh grade.

[TP]

Because his mom knew that he was a really smart kid. He just, she didn't feel like he was brilliant, a brilliant kid.

[Sid]

She said he was brilliant and she.

[TP]

Didn'T feel like he was applying himself because she knew that he was brilliant.

[Sid]

And that was so necessary. When you look at what his life panned out to be like, you needed parents that were going to be hard on you to some degree. Cuz we have hindsight to see like, all right, he was brilliant and he became who he became. And we both feel the same about like the school system, like it's way too structured and regimented for some people who are more like outside the box thinkers, it's like, no, they want you to do this, like this, answer this like this. Sometimes there's not a lot of wiggle room for if you don't learn this way. And sometimes you're immediately cast into special classes. But it's like they actually might be smarter than a lot of the kids that you have in their class, but you're not giving them the resources to help them learn at the same level, which is equity.

[TP]

And also the way that you're measuring that kid's intelligence isn't the way that that kid's intelligence will shine.

[Sid]

He didn't like school. Like, he appeared to have adhd. Like, he said he had anxiety, but he was very smart. You know, it just wasn't. Maybe he. I don't know how he was book smart, but maybe it just wasn't in the way that other people were. And so I found it good, though, that his mom making him go to school, it did teach discipline, because even though you may not learn the same, there are good things that come with school. Responsibility, discipline, accountability, like, doing things on time, all of that. So there are good things that can come from it. But I love that his mom held him accountable, you know, because the producer and the rapper, everything that he became mogul now, like, that doesn't just happen without discipline.

[TP]

Right. And also the places that he, like, found himself in but was, like, advocating for himself and, like, not in, like, a weird way or, like, a pushy way, just in, like, a I'm gonna get to know this guy way and build a relationship with them so that, like, when it is time for me to, like, like, step up and do I have knowledge on, like, getting mentored by people in these positions, he was, like, preparing himself, in a sense, by, like, surrounding himself with people that, like, have been there, done that before. And it's funny that at a certain time, Rum Shaker was freestyled by him originally. Like, they felt like they had this crazy beat, and he was just like, you just gotta flow. And as a teenager, that he said.

[Sid]

Was telling him how to do it.

[TP]

And then he just. Rex and effects, and Rex FX went on the mic right after and just. He said he mimicked what Pharrell did in that song. Obviously, like, whether you listen to hip hop or not, like, everybody knows that song.

[Sid]

Yeah. But shoot, before we even get there, though. And the reason that this is key is because the other day we were talking about manifestation, and TP said, manifestation isn't just a thing you appear at. Like, it's the actions that you take along the way to get to your manifestation. I was telling her that I feel like as people, we project, like, we insert our human desires into the thing that we feel like is our. That we're wanting to, like, manifest. And sometimes what you want isn't what you need. So you may be waking up every day and, like, whatever, doing affirmations or speaking something into your life. Like, I want to become the CEO or I want to Become the CEO. I want to become the CEO. So, like, you may want that for certain reasons, or you may want something that's like forward facing because you want to be famous or you want the money that comes with it, whatever. But that may not necessarily be what you need. But if you do all the things along the way to become the CEO or the forward facing person, maybe the other place where you end up you'll be prepared for though it just wasn't what was meant for you.

[TP]

Yep.

[Sid]

So I think a lot of the times, like I'm watching Pharrell's situation and I'm like, yeah, that's very much like what was taking place in some of his situations. Like, you're thinking it should look like this, but that's because we're human beings and, like, we can have pride and ego and it's like, no, sometimes you got to get things taken away when you're not treating them how you should.

[TP]

And when you get away from, like, what initially got you into it, what you. What your main purpose was. I think manifestation. Like you might want to seek something. Maybe, like that's a. Maybe that's a job title. Maybe that's a certain dollar amount in your bank account. Maybe that's like fancy cars. Whatever. Whatever it is that you're like seeking. But if you seek how to be in order to get there and not that thing specifically, you'll get there. Because if I'm waking up every day, like, I want to be CEO.

[Sid]

Yeah. How you get there?

[TP]

I'm not practice. I'm not practicing in order to get there. Preparing, or I'm waking up late sleeping in. I don't have readiness whenever. If you're doing all the steps in order, if you act in that moment without that title, if you can't say that you want to be a CEO and not be acting like a CEO before, you don't just automatically turn it on when you get that job title. The readiness that you had going into that job is why you're going to get that.

[Sid]

Yeah.

[TP]

So you have to be ready before you're preparing for that readiness. What you're seeking is readiness for your opportunity. You don't know when your opportunity will ever come for basketball. It's really simple to understand that concept because there's only 12 people on your team. You know numbers, you know the way the game's flowing. You see where you'll get opportunity or not. And life is an endless bowl of opportunity. You never know what could happen to you. You don't know if you'll even be here tomorrow. But all you can do is that try to be your best every single day. And if you do have these goals, strive for them. And also surround yourself with people that.

[Sid]

Help you to do that, because that's.

[TP]

Something that he put an emphasis on.

[Sid]

He put a huge emphasis on. But I think even before he got to that point, I loved what. I love what they showed in the Lego movie because just the way that it's done. Talks about his grandma, his uncle, who I think was a deacon or like a pastor, said that his grand. Pharrell's grandmother had a dream and told him that he was. Pharrell was lifted up way high up in the air, like, suspended for a very long time, just amongst the stars. And it was clear to her, like, you know, we feel like he was a star already, but she ended up telling him, like, God has given you a special gift, but to whom much is given, much is required. And then we start to see Pharrell go on his journey of meeting Chad. You know, them becoming nerd Neptunes, making all of these hits, the songs that they're playing along the way are just unbelievable. And the people you're seeing Pharrell work with, he's doing, like, hollaback girl. He's doing Drop it like It's Hot with Snoop Dogg, which was his first Hot in here, like, number one song.

[TP]

Hot in here was Snoop Dogg's first number one song.

[Sid]

Snoop Dogg's first number 1 Justin Timberlake.

[TP]

And snoo. This interview says that, like, he was just known as, like, a gangster, but he was always, like, feeling like there was something missing in his career. And he was like, I never got to show my fun side.

[Sid]

Yeah.

[TP]

And Drop it like It's Hot was.

[Sid]

Able to bring out a smile.

[TP]

Yeah. And Snoop Dogg, like, really, like, when that song came out, you started, like, seeing him openly hang out with Martha Stewart, like, you were just, like, seeing a completely different side. He was, like, baking, and you were.

[Sid]

Like, like, how did this.

[TP]

Like that. That kind of bake, like, with gin and juice. It's just like. But to see someone with, like, Pharrell's spirit and the way that his spirit resonated because he wanted. He was chasing an emotion in people. He wanted. If you were Christian, Jewish, Muslim, black, white, wherever you. Whatever you come from, you can resonate with an emotion. And he was trying to of people. And he's had so many songs that, like, you just know if you listen to music especially.

[Sid]

Yeah.

[TP]

In the 2000s, you know, double Digigit, Pharrell songs, like, not even probably realizing that, you know Pharrell songs. But specifically, he did a song called Happy. I know everybody can remember that song because they. Every single person played it. It was on every commercial. Everybody was happy.

[Sid]

Yeah, it was global.

[TP]

It was global. People that don't speak English in any sense, we're singing this song. We're coming up with dances for even says, like, I feel like that song wasn't mine any more. It was the world.

[Sid]

But to me, that's what artists are supposed to do.

[TP]

It was so powerful.

[Sid]

Like, you're supposed to speak to. Okay, he did Happy and then he did all right with Kendrick Lamar.

[TP]

Yeah.

[Sid]

Because he said right after Happy. But it's important to even understand what. When we. What's going on at that point now before we got to Happy. Okay, remember, he had got. He said that he had gotten a little too arrogant. He made all these hit songs with Justin Timberlake, Jay Z, Snoop, Gwen Stefani, like, everybody that he and the Neptune's broke up, Noriega. Neptune's broke up. They said he was such a. An out of the box thinker that sometimes they got him in trouble and sometimes he got a little too arrogant. Instead of, like, staying down on the ground amongst everybody else, you get too carried away. So he, He. He went from making number one hits all the time to not being able to have a single one. So he was just at a low point having to figure it out. That's when he had to come up with, he's up all night. I'm up all night to get lucky. And that was also a huge song.

[TP]

It was a huge song.

[Sid]

And he was noticing, like, okay, like, maybe I can do this again. In the next song that he did, he was bathing his son. Remember, because you're back probably spending more time with your family now, you're not as busy recording because you hadn't been making hits, but, you know, you're with your wife and kids and you start getting, like, a feeling that you got something on your hands and the wife hears it while he's, you know, bathing the sun and playing with the sun. And because she. She said he was like, staring off into the distance. And when he started singing it, she was like, that's it. And I thought that was, like, so symbolic of how in our lives when you can get pulled away from, like, what's important and what's really what really matters. But when you get back around the people that really, like, care about you and ground you and want to See, you do well, that's probably where your biggest inspiration will come from, because you're more. You're more closely to. Not. You're more closely tied to your purpose.

[TP]

Yeah. You ventured off for a little bit. And the closer he got back to it, and he was doing the most simple task, something that he was like, I love being a father. Like, this was something that I values, being able to spend time with my wife and my kid.

[Sid]

Yep.

[TP]

So him doing something as monotonous as bathing your son, which you probably do every single night. But this night, he said it was. It just came to him, and it was something he was with his family. He. He was, like, brought to tears because he was like, you can take away everything in the world. If I knew that made the people around me proud.

[Sid]

Yeah.

[TP]

And if I knew that I made the people around me had my back, he was like, I wouldn't trade that for anything in the world. And I think that's, you know, what he found himself to be missing during that time and what brought him back and what also brought Pharrell's music back, like, and he was able to find it because he was closer to his vibration and where he was supposed to be in life.

[Sid]

Yeah, it's.

[TP]

It's like, really? He's such a cool guy. I love so many for all songs. I didn't even realize, you know, so many songs.

[Sid]

He's such a good. Like, I mean, what. What is he at a Louis right now? Like, yeah, he's so talented. Like, this man is just.

[TP]

They did so many interviews. Like, the people that were interviewed for Pharrell, it was Jay Z, Pusha T.

[Sid]

There was Noriega, Nas, Missy Elliott, Gwen Safani. But it was like, also watching his life, you. You could just see there was a calling on his life. Like, he was going to be somebody because just going to school with Missy Timberland and, like, these people is not normal.

[TP]

No.

[Sid]

You know, like, y' all ended up being very successful, musically inclined, because Teddy Riley ended up moving his studio, like, studio in Virginia Beach. And people in the community were like, you can't just be around here. You're not doing nothing for the community. So Teddy Riley, who is a huge musical producer, to let you know, like, how big. If you don't know who Teddy Riley is, like, go look him up. But when people were doing the. The versus challenges during the pandemic and after, he was up against Babyface. So that's to let you know, like, your catalog has to be crazy to be in the same Conversation with Babyface. Right. Teddy Riley ends up having a studio in the city and, like, not even in the city, across the street from the school. And he said, all right, well, will you put me in touch with the principal from that school? We want to start having talent shows. Pharrell was obviously a part of the talent show with Chad, and they got a record deal and started making music while they're in high school. Like, once again, like, certain things along the way when you're working and you know what you want to become, there will be the things that are dropped in your lap that, like, you got to take that chance. You got to take this as a sign. Like, if you can't be shy and not participate in the talent show, if you're for real.

[TP]

I like what you always say about, like, how if you want it with all your being, the universe finds a way to, like, let it happen for you.

[Sid]

That's from now.

[TP]

And this is, like, the most random, but the fact that, like, he was like, we're in Virginia Beach. There was nothing. Like, it was beautiful. It was like this suburban town that had, like, a beach and, like, it was just regular.

[Sid]

Yeah.

[TP]

And this big time music mogul comes in and just drops a studio in.

[Sid]

His town across the street from your school.

[TP]

Like, while seeking, like, emotion. He was, like, seeking happiness this whole time. And he just sarcastically said, like, if I could make a song about happiness, and then did and ended up putting music to it and ended up finding an emotion within himself. It's almost like whenever you, like, will yourself to do it with your word. Like, mind over matter.

[Sid]

Yeah.

[TP]

Or fake it till you make it or whatever you want that phrase to be. But that one song, like, smiling at a stranger or smiling at a stranger because you just. You never know what people are going through. You never know what kind of day they're having. So why not, like, build into the universe instead of taking away? Like, I'm not gonna lie.

[Sid]

I kind of. That saying kind of annoys me sometimes. You never know what people going through. Because the thing is, you shouldn't have to know. Just be nice. Like, I don't need to, like, imagine this world where you're. You had a really rough day. And then. So I'm like, hey, you okay? I can just ask. Or I could just say hi. Or not be an asshole.

[TP]

Just be pleasant.

[Sid]

Just be pleasant.

[TP]

Like, you're. It's zero dollars to just be pleasant. So we should start bringing that back as well. Being pleasant. We need to add that to the bring back list.

[Sid]

I like it. But I do like that about him. Writing it in that way is pretty. It's pretty funny. You thought you were going to sarcastically write something.

[TP]

Because I'm happy. Wait, wait, I am.

[Sid]

Because.

[TP]

So, yeah, I love that also. I love Legos.

[Sid]

You do love.

[TP]

I love Legos so much that. That was like, the best. I love Legos. I would build them all day if I just had some Legos, Legos or pattern. I could really amplify these curls a good amount. Did I say that?

[Sid]

Did I say that? Well, shoot, that was good chat. Good chat, man. I enjoyed that.

[TP]

That was great.

[Sid]

It was good. So what do you think about down in the Dark?

[TP]

It go down. It go down. It go down. In the gym, they go. You go down. Hey. So, Sid, I think you can read it. I'm doing an eye test right now and I'm like.

[Sid]

Well, I was gonna let you read it because that was like a fear of yours when you were younger.

[TP]

You don't have to let me read that. Like, you should just take it. I'm looking at this eye test right now. I hated reading out loud.

[Sid]

I know. Just do it. No. All right, I got it. Hey, TP and Sid, I need your help, please.

[TP]

Wow, Sid. Did you like that? The ring of the opposite. I told Sid last night that we're actually gonna change the show name. Instead of alphabetical order, we're gonna go height order. So I'm getting bumped to the front.

[Sid]

Anyway, today's my 30th birthday. Also, it's my dad's birthday today. Happy birthday, dad.

[TP]

Happy birthday, Mr. Simi.

[Sid]

All right, so this is from Katie ray. Today's her 30th birthday and somebody important did not wish me a happy birthday. Her entire job. She said that they text out. They text out happy birthday to the group chat for every single person who works there.

[TP]

Even on weekends, in the morning.

[Sid]

Even on weekends, without fail.

[TP]

So, sorry, this sounds awful.

[Sid]

Even somebody who, like, who, like, quit. But they still left them in the chat. They're like, please take me out of this chat. Like, I don't.

[TP]

It's been weeks.

[Sid]

So they've got. So they've got people who don't even work there anymore and they're wishing them happy birthday. But she said it's 4:30 in the evening and still nothing. I had to recently dramatically cut my hours. My hours due to medical reasons. So I feel like they're angry with me and this is their way to get back at me for leaving them in a tough spot. Switching to working a Few hours a month was purely to help them out. But now they can go. So I need help with. I want to let them know that never see this absolute icon period girl again. But just don't quite know how to say it. I'm thinking sorry for your lost vibes. I can't think of two better people to help. I love you so much, Ty. Thank you.

[TP]

Okay. Anonymous Jennifer, thank you so much for writing in. We truly do appreciate you also. Get well soon. I guess we'll start off by saying that I hope you feel better.

[Sid]

Oh yeah, feel better.

[TP]

And secondly, now let's get down to the juice. So. Wow. I've never, I guess, seen a workplace that would just be so spiteful to not wish somebody happy birthday. That's actually wild. So, HR so what would you say? Didn't write in either, so probably not them. I'm glad you came to us for it though.

[Sid]

So what would you say for her to do for her to say something when she quits?

[TP]

I guess. You also seem like you do have a sense of humor with the way that this is worded. So I'm appreciating this. If I were to go about it in the way that like would happen in a movie, it's not going to be the way that you should go about it. But I think writing a poem that worked for Sid's birthday.

[Sid]

You love a poem.

[TP]

Would really go out on top.

[Sid]

Your answer to everything is prosecutor. You just love poetry.

[TP]

It was. I haven't, I haven't dabbled in it again since sixth grade. So the fact that yeah, you're like.

[Sid]

Tell them with a soliloquy.

[TP]

Hit him with some knowledge that they weren't even expecting. Come. Also, show of hands, babysitters. I love when I do this. Like we can't see you, but still. Please raise your hand unless you're driving. Have you ever wrote in a poem? Written a poem to quit your job?

[Sid]

No.

[TP]

Have you been cut?

[Sid]

No, I don't think they're called poems when people do that. I think it's a manifesto typically, unfortunately.

[TP]

It'S a big miss.

[Sid]

Big miss. So keep it non violent girly. I would say definitely a poem. Do you have words that you want to put in that poem? You have anything you want to tell.

[TP]

Her or I would like maybe add in. You know, I'm like great with poems. So a line that I like to play with is like fired. So you can say like before I get by, fired. I've been really tired of this. You guys are making me sick. That Was. That's all I could really think of in this moment. But that's how I felt.

[Sid]

I was send audio note at 4:30 on the day that I didn't show up and be like, oh. Like, I'm like, hey, y', all, it's 4:30. They're like, okay. Everybody's just putting question marks on my audio note. I was like, oh, well, this was just the same time yesterday that y' all had me absolutely fucked up. Y' all knew it was my birthday. You tell everybody happy birthday every day on their birthday, but you want it to seem like I'm making a big deal out of stuff. I won't be gaslit any longer. I know y' all are mad. I had to cut my hours. Damn. Like, I got to live my life. You want me to just die for this job? I got other shit I'm trying to do. So just to let you know, you won't be playing with me anymore. You played in my face for far too long. I genuinely would rather not have money to pay my rent than to see y' all faces another day. I was faking for so long and wearing a mask that this is probably the best thing that could have happened to me. I won't say I hate y', all, but I definitely won't not say it. Go to hell. And something important to know, Katie Ray. Whenever we have birthdays, like in the WNBA or at least on the teams that we've been on.

[TP]

Yeah.

[Sid]

Something to expect from your boss is that they're going to be a part of the pedal wheel line. When is your birthday? So when we're saying paddle wheel, the team is lining up on two sides. You know, let's try to evenly split it. If we got 12 players, six and six, six and five. Because one, I'm the one. I'm about to run through there.

[TP]

That was a problem in our.

[Sid]

That was a problem.

[TP]

We have a video.

[Sid]

We do have a video. So you should run through there. You should be sprinting through there because everybody's trying to hit you on the butt as hard as they possibly can.

[TP]

Yeah.

[Sid]

So that you do have a good birthday. And maybe they're like, oh, maybe she doesn't experience that sometimes. So that's what should have happened on your birthday along with a text.

[TP]

So you were robbed of so many birthday experiences.

[Sid]

It's super unfortunate because actually, that was where I learned that TP was going to be co star for our show. We did the birthday.

[TP]

This is actually hilarious. I was telling Sid this came up recently Because I was telling Sid I think that I'm very funny, and I laugh at my own jokes regardless if anybody else was with me or not. But Sid makes me laugh harder than I ever thought that I could. So you might be the funniest person that I know. Like, overall, you are. Okay, so we're doing. It's Sydney's birthday. We also had a hard time figuring out what day this happened. We came to realize that it was a birthday line, so it had to be on her birthday. So we're doing the paddle line, and we stopped to watch every single person's reaction. This is with our 2022 Aces team.

[Sid]

Yeah. And I walked through there.

[TP]

You did walk. It was so sick. That was the first time in all my years of playing that I've ever.

[Sid]

Seen some WNBA birthdays because it means a few lesbos are going to slap my butt.

[TP]

That's so weird, Sid. That's so weird.

[Sid]

And honestly, it doesn't even matter. Lesbian or not, I'm getting my butt several times on my birthday. And so I savored in that moment. Everybody else runs through to not get hurt.

[TP]

I was like, you were absorbing each and every one. And the fact that people were, like, trying to come with some heat too, and, like, make you feel uncomfortable, but the fact that you didn't made in turn them, like, stop and stare at you.

[Sid]

They hated it.

[TP]

Everybody's individual reaction was so funny.

[Sid]

Yeah.

[TP]

In this.

[Sid]

Yeah.

[TP]

Video. The person who enjoyed this video the most is not even filmed in it. You can only hear.

[Sid]

Becky laughing from the side.

[TP]

Becky is having so much fun at his birthday party, which was, again, the battle wheel. Becky is weak. In the background of this video, you.

[Sid]

Have Kelsey, who gets on the side so she can use her right hand, not her shooting hand. She was like, I'm not gonna hit you with my shooting hand. Very Kelsey. So Plum hits me. She kind of moves on. Then you got bae, who was, like, trying to get to her shot.

[TP]

I was trying to. Cindy leaned over early before the paddle wheel started to remove Kelsey from the situation or remove her to the other side because we were unbalanced. Imbalanced from side to side. So you tried to move Kelsey. They thought you were starting your run. She went to go slap you, and then she had to pull back.

[Sid]

But she was annoyed because she was ready to go shoot free throws.

[TP]

We were wasting her time getting up extra shots with this.

[Sid]

So she hits me, takes off. Then on this side. What? Derick.

[TP]

You got Derick and Shep D. Erica falls down.

[Sid]

She's weak.

[TP]

Derick missed the best part.

[Sid]

She did miss the part. We go de Erica on this side. We had Jackie. She hits really no emotion. Shocker.

[TP]

Hit stairs. Asia's absent this day.

[Sid]

Scared. Yeah. Then you have. Yeah, it was absent. Then you got Kia on this side, who is also weak, because at this point, Kia has hung out with us as the.

[TP]

There was a certain level that Kia was expecting, and I think you exceeded. Yeah.

[Sid]

So Kia's weak. And then we go to this side. And who else was by il? Chelsea. And we saw Chelsea as I was getting closer. She went from an open hand to curling her fist up. Curling her hand up in a fist. She hits me as I'm going by with an open. An open fist on my right.

[TP]

A closed fist.

[Sid]

A closed fist on my right butt cheek. It was the craziest thing.

[TP]

Like, she didn't want to be touched by your.

[Sid]

It was gross. Shep also hit me very lightly and was confused. KB slapped me and stung my left butt cheek. Then you were last. I got to you, and there was a moment there. I lifted my butt. You went. You went to hit it Good. Go do it. You went three. I went like that. You went to hit.

[TP]

I was like, I need my real whack. And then I was gonna go again.

[Sid]

I blocked it again. Then you were coming again.

[TP]

And I do a full pop.

[Sid]

I let you hit it. I say.

[TP]

You immediately. I have T. Rex arms. Like, I don't know what happened to me in that moment, but it was a lot. I immediately did T. Rex arms. You turn around and you say, coaches, staff. Like, you needed more slaps. That wasn't enough. And you walk through this whole video should have taken. It takes people less than two seconds. I would say, like, a slow person might take three seconds to get through the tunnel.

[Sid]

Yeah, it took me 15.

[TP]

It took you over a minute.

[Sid]

Oh, all right, Whatever. Well, I enjoyed it, but I hope that y' all are able to find your best friend in your workplace, because that's when I know me and TP Would have a show together. But we can give you more of that story another day, because we've gone over probably six minutes on what should.

[TP]

Have been a minute.

[Sid]

A minute Long story, but we just like talking.

[TP]

We'll add the video, though.

[Sid]

We'll add the video, and then.

[TP]

Okay, bye.

[Sid]

But also, happy birthday, Becky, because they told you today, like, drag somebody else.

[TP]

But you, like, just egg it on. Like, I see that you're getting similar treatments. So you feel any empowerment with this girl? Take the advice and do it. Do it for yourself as well. You start dragging other people in it.

[Sid]

Hilarious. Well, hope that helped, Katie girl.

[TP]

I hope that was empowering.

[Sid]

Well, that's the end of our show.

[TP]

I think we'll follow that up by just don't forget to throw kindness around. That was fun.

[Sid]

Not if you have, but if you trust us enough with your business, don't forget DM us on any of the social media platforms that super at unsupervised tp until it gets switched to tp Sig sounds like tp.
