I call her Black Vera because she got nominated and won an NAACP Image Award, and Black Vera's not black at all, but she did win.
Yeah, got booed off the stage when she accepted the award. She's Black Vera now. Yeah.
Wow. You're falling. Your mic's falling. I got it. I got it. I'm good. Okay. We're straight.
What's the Herbert, Sherbert? What's Sherbert? What's the difference between Sherbert and sorbet? Let's get to the good stuff, guys.
I think Sherbert feels like the... Is there dairy in Sherbert? No, there's no dairy in Sherbert, I don't think.
There's no dairy in sorbet?

Chapter 2: How does Randall's campaign unfold?
Love. Tim Joe. Love Tim Joe. Okay.
We're going to get Tim Joe on the show. We have to get Tim Joe on the show.
J. Juan has got to make an appearance on the show. And this wasn't even me sharing anything with the writers. One of my best friends in life, Dr. Philip Kim... is Korean. We've known each other since freshman year of college. He's been in my wedding. I've been in his wedding. There's like a group of six of us or whatnot. So it was really funny.
Like as this storyline was coming up, like all my friends were like, hey, Phil, did you like contribute to the storyline? Did they tell you that they know that you guys are friends? Like there's a lot of excitement in the friend group around this whole thing.
So it's pretty awesome. While we're booking guests, Sam, we should also try and get Rob Morgan on here too.
Rob Morgan's outstanding. Outstanding. He's outstanding. Well, let's just go with the sort of the Pearson, Black Pearson storyline first. Sure, sure. Always, always. Right? Randall is still sort of learning, trying to entrench himself in the community, Philadelphia and whatnot. So he's got to go to church.
He picks the blue shirt for church over the white shirt, which I thought was cute.
He picks the blue shirt. Although there was the teal was also a thing. He picks the teal shirt. He picks the teal shirt. He picks the teal shirt. He says blue or white. Yeah. Okay. And she's like, well, what about teal? And he's like, isn't that overdoing it for church? She's like, there ain't no overdoing it for black church. Got it, got it. You're right. Witch! Is true.
Tell me about your black church outfit. I'm going to tell you. Well, I think you probably have more black church outfits than me. I've got a lot of them. My man, Sully, if you guys have not keyed in on his fashion sense. If you have not seen me at black church. It is very much of the black church.

Chapter 3: What challenges do Toby and Kate face?
Sterling as Randall.
What did I say?
You said Kevin and Sterling.
So listen, me and my wife are in this restaurant.
And Randall starts to clock that like everybody is sort of swarming around Kevin. And he's like, oh dude, like the Manny is like the biggest show in South Korea. And you're like, what? What are you talking about? And so he starts to see like, oh my gosh, I'm in my district. I just got my butt handed to me in church, right? The last week I got my butt handed to me at the barbecue restaurant.
And there's a whole untapped sort of like community of voters. We wind up going back to my campaign office. And he's got the posters up. Kevin's like, oh, it's all official and everything. And I realized that only 25% of registered voters voted last time. And 90% of them voted for Saul Brown.
Yeah.
But there's a whole community of people that didn't even show up to vote.
Didn't even register.

Chapter 4: What is the significance of the black church scene?
Peanut butter.
Peanut butter. Yeah, the salted peanut butter. They hit different. David protein bars are different. They're packed with 28 grams of protein. 28. Eight grams of protein. Yeah. Only 150 calories and have zero grams of sugar. And with 75% of their calories coming from protein, they beat every other bar I've tried.
Yeah. And most protein bars are basically like candy in disguise. Yes. David is not. Come on, David. All right. It's high quality nutrition that fits into real life. And they're available in a variety of fantastic flavors. All of them worth trying. I have literally tried all of them. Yes. And I have enjoyed them all.
Yes.
That's why I always have David Protein bars with me. David is offering our listeners a deal to buy four cartons and get the fifth free at davidprotein.com slash thatwasus. That's davidprotein.com slash thatwasus to get your fifth carton free. Humans aren't perfect, but David is. David Protein Let's go back to Beth, can we?
Let's go back to Beth because as Randall is going to church, the girls sort of come in and they're a little disenchanted that Randall's working and he's campaigning because they have to sell Girl Scout cookies. And Beth is like, well, I can help you guys sell cookies. You know, I don't have a lot on my plate right now and I'm happy to help you. They go try to find a place to sell cookies.
She brings them to a grocery store at first and realizes when they get there, there's another troop that's set up
Somebody's already working the corner.
They're already working the corner. They're working the outside of the grocery store. Spots taken. So they have to pivot, find another place. And where did they end up?

Well, I'll just... You can decide.
I'm talking lots of other people that were in the scene.
For everybody. For everybody.
For everybody.
She shot up. She shot up. Which is, as I'm watching my sort of middle school boy happen, the girls shoot up. That's when it happens. The girls shoot up pretty fast. So yeah, they're boxing and catching it. Later, Randall tells his dad, dad, you got to teach me how to box. And he's like, what for? And he's like, I don't think your mom's going to like that.
He's like, listen, I've been getting bullied by this dude at school.
Dylan.
His name is Dylan. And he makes fun of me. He just came in from New York. And I don't want to talk on him because then people say that I'm, you know, ratting him out or whatnot. I just need to learn how to protect myself. I'll only use it if I absolutely have to. But please just show me. Right? And he's like, all right. What are our parental views on this?
What would one do in this situation? Sterling?

Chapter 6: What lessons do the characters learn about themselves?
Toby's what? Toby's depressed.
Toby is not feeling great.
Because he's having a baby?
Yeah. Well, he hasn't gotten his medication yet.
Correct.
Yeah. And you sort of see, like, when we left him at the last one, crying over the sink, et cetera, now he's just sort of laid up in bed.
Yeah.
And you see Kate... try and keep it together and maintain positivity or whatnot. She decides to take Audio for a walk or what have you. Oh, this is what, I love how you had Audio just on your chest. He's just drooped over you. Who's the trainer? Is it you? Is it the trainer? Is it a combination? Like how amenable was the dog? What kind of chicken treat did you have? Oh, I don't even remember.
I think Audio and I at that point were pretty well acquainted. You guys were pretty tight.
