Recounting a funny misunderstanding, Raven shared how Maday said, “I wish you would go upstairs,” not realizing it sounded combative in Black vernacular. The phrase, although meant innocently, was interpreted as a challenge, sparking laughter among hosts and prompting a humorous lesson in tone and cultural context. Raven’s light-hearted explanation brought awareness to linguistic nuances within Black culture and showcased the couple’s playful dynamic. The interview ended with Raven expressing appreciation for the moment of connection and understanding.
