Black Millennial Marriage

Hey y'all, Hey!

It's a good day for a throwback.

And in this episode the Chapmans highlight BMM EP 059: Why Do Millennials Fall in Love? Do you remember that episode? It was a lot of fun and Mikey and Randie wanted to share the unedited version of that episode with you.

In this episode, Randie reads a listener’s love story that started at Sonics, involves a little head, and ends in a lasting marriage. Later, Mikey and Randie answer a listener’s question that reveals why they got married and also why they believe millennials are shying away from the commitment. Before the episode’s end, the Chapmans hypothetically renegotiate terms of their relationship and engage in a fight or flight that gets deeper than expected. However, as always Mikey and Randie reel it in with some always appreciated PDA and they hope you enjoy.

Are you excited to add this millennial couple to your list of relationship favorites?

Pressing play and rating 5-stars on iTunes and wherever else you listen is the first step.

NOTE: The unedited versions of the episodes are episodes without any editing. It is raw audio from the recording session before the public gets the cleaned up version. Normally, the couple only share these versions of the podcast with their Patreon, but a rabbit hole gave the Mrs. the idea to share this particular episode.

Let Mikey and Randie know if you like these kind of episodes and walks down memory lane. We hope you enjoy!

Hey y’all!

Tune in for the Chapman’s first mini episode this season. As a reminder, Minis are all about their experiences as parents and in this episode Mikey and Randie reveal what parenting Drew has made them realize about their childhoods.

The list ranges from being hit a lot to, in some cases, wishing they had the parents they wanted.

It’s a fun episode in that Randie and Mikey really enjoyed recording it and chatting about this wild ride called parenthood.

Later, the couple end the episode with some PDA to Drew and to each other in their roles as parents.

And just so you know, you don’t have to be a parent to relate to this episode. In fact reach out to the Chapmans if you’re a parent, aunt, uncle, guardian, friend of a friend who’s a parent and tell them what the children around you make you remember about your childhood.

The answers may surprise you. 

As always, the Chapmans appreciate you for listening and rocking with them for all of these years. They wouldn’t be here without your support and they want you to know they’re grateful.

Hey y’all! 

Was a pastor featured on the BMM podcast on your Bingo card for 2023? It certainly wasn’t on Mikey and Randie’s, but seeing as this season’s theme is “Lemonade” the Chapmans are committed to acknowledging the nourishment all around them. Enter Kristian A. Smith, a man who wears many hats, and is also the host of the Holy Smokes Spirituality and Cigars podcast. 

In this episode, the couple interview Kristian and discuss the first time they all broke an unspoken spoken rule, his ministry, how he and his wife, Pamela, are deconstructing marriage, how his relationship changed his faith and more. Kristian even shares a hack to how you can ensure the church you’re visiting (if you still visit churches) believes in inclusive and humane theology.

Later, Randie and Mikey chat with Kristian about how cigars bring people closer and after the interview the Chapmans shower each other in some PDA.

This episode will surprise you in the best way, and your hosts hope you enjoy.

Hey, (in our best Mikey voice), he’s back.

It’s been over a year since Mikey dropped an indie and in this episode he reveals where he’s been and how working on his latest project— his 1978 Monte Carlo Landau—is healing him. 

Tune in as Mikey nerds out with some history about the car, details the story of his cousin Quacy a.k.a. Chess gifting him the Monte Carlo, and discusses the three things re-building his dream car has taught him. 

Later, Mikey gives a head nod to a cousin who is really like a brother and ends the episode with some words of encouragement for anyone realizing that life will life. 

We hope you enjoy. Happy Listening.

Hey y’all!

In this episode, Mikey and Randie detail their most recent relationship breakthrough.

It started with an argument and turned into a moment of vulnerability. 

And it’s all thanks to that damn word chart.

Later, Randie brings a fight or flight questioning Mikey about therapy. But it’s all love, when in the end they show each other some PDA. 

As always, the Chapmans appreciate you for listening and rocking with them for all of these years. They wouldn’t be here without your support and they want you to know they’re grateful.

Hey y’all!

In this episode Mikey and Randie interview Dr. Jeannelle Perkins-Muhammad on her latest book Into-Me-See: Mastering Black Intimacy for the Relationship You’ve Always Wanted and there’s so much to say.

Before beginning the interview, The Chapmans and Dr. Jeannelle share their first memories of feeling safe. Later, the duo learn that finding out she was married to a narcissist inspired Dr. Jeannelle to write this book and more. 

Together, they discuss the infamous emotions chart that everybody in the world needs to print and hang up in their house, activities couples can do to draw them closer and ensure their needs are being met, HBNS (Hot Butt-Naked Sex), and how the brain remembers trauma even when you’re no longer in danger.

To end, the couple show each other some love in their PDA segment because you know that’s how they do. 

In all, nothing but playing the episode can do justice to the gems Dr. Jeannelle shared in her book and on the show.

So tune in and grab the book. Randie finished it in one day!

As always, the Chapmans appreciate you for listening and rocking with them for all of these years. They wouldn’t be here without your support and they want you to know they’re grateful.

Hey y’all. Mikey and Randie, are back after a hiatus of seven months.

And in this episode, they detail what’s changed about them and how having boundaries, self-respect, and faith again has affected them and the podcast for the better. Later, Mikey brings a fight or flight that turns into a poem, wondering when Randie will remember who she is. But, just like old times, it’s all love when they show each other PDA.

As always, the Chapmans appreciate you for listening and rocking with them for all of these years. They wouldn’t be here without your support and they want you to know they’re grateful.
