  • LEAVING | Dropping Dymes Podcast | Episode 115

    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back, to yet another episode, in another awesome season!!! Thank you for pulling back up on us! We are back, and making it happen, just for you all, and a little bit for us. We greatly appreciate your presence, and want to thank you for letting us borrow a little bit of your time, letting us into a little bit of your space, and just letting us come in and do what we do, and that’s just talk! Hopefully we share something, drop a dyme or two that you can pick up, save in your piggy bank of life, and cash it in when the time is right, and it makes sense in your situation!


    This week's Question of the Week is what are 3 things that you look for in a partner? It doesn't have to be the top 3 things, but just three good ones. Three things that are "must haves" for you to allow someone into your life in a romantic way? Is it looks, maybe a bomb ass walk, someone that can really cook or maybe its the ability to hold a good conversation. Let us know yours! Let's talk about it!


    This week's topic is all about leaving! Knowing when to, knowing how to, knowing how to bounce back from doing so, what can drive you to leave, and any and everything else that can be attached to leaving? I think when we hear about leaving, we automatically think of leaving romantic relationships, but we leave tons of other things, other relationships. It can be the relationship with your job, friendly relationships, we leave teams, but what drove you to do it? Was it best for you? What about timing? We discuss all these things and more. Come on in, let's talk about it!


    As always, we appreciate you giving us a little of your time, letting us borrow a little of your space, to let us just come in and do what we do, and that's just talk! Praying these words connect and help in some way! Continue to tell a friend to tell a friend to come be our friends, so we can all be friends!

  • BROKE | Dropping Dymes Podcast | Episode #113

    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back, to yet another episode, in another awesome season!!! Thank you for pulling back up on us! We are back, and making it happen, just for you all, and a little bit for us. We greatly appreciate your presence, and want to thank you for letting us borrow a little bit of your time, letting us into a little bit of your space, and just letting us come in and do what we do, and that’s just talk! Hopefully we share something, drop a dyme or two that you can pick up, save in your piggy bank of life, and cash it in when the time is right, and it makes sense in your situation!


    The Question of the Week for this week is what do you think was your worst financial decision you've made? At this point in life, I think we've all had that moment where we had buyer's remorse, or looking back, you thought to yourself "where did all that money go?" What was yours? Was it the super long chain back in the day, the Honda Accord with 200K miles on it, or was it buying the bar when you thought you had real money? Let's talk about it! What was your worst financial decision?


    With that being said, today's topic is an extension of the Question of the Week, and get into when were you at your "brokest" financially? When did you feel like you had no money? I think we've all be there, but the word "broke" can mean something different for each of us. For some, once you get under a certain amount, you get that feeling. For others, when you have to monitor your account a little more, that could be that feeling of being at your financial low. For some of us, it's been your account laughs at you when you log in to check it. Like most things we discuss on here, these answers will vary, but we want to know what broke has looked like for you, when did it happen, and how did you get yourself out of the moment? Let's really talk about it. I know there's someone at home wondering why would we have this kind of conversation. A few reasons, but he's a couple of good reasons to us. Sometimes letting people know they're not alone can stop them from doing something that could hurt them in so many ways. Sometimes, tell how you were able to get yourself out of the moment can be exactly what someone else needs to hear to get them out of theirs. So, with that being said, let talk about it!


    As always, we appreciate you giving us a little of your time, letting us borrow a little of your space, to let us just come in and do what we do, and that's just talk! Praying these words connect and help in some way! Continue to tell a friend to tell a friend to come be our friends, so we can all be friends! We're still on our quest to get to 1,000 subscribers and you, our family and friends are so dope, and you all mean so much in that quest!

  • TABOO | Dropping Dymes Podcast | Episode #112

    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back, to yet another episode, in another awesome season!!! Thank you for pulling back up on us! We are back, and making it happen, just for you all, and a little bit for us. We greatly appreciate your presence, and want to thank you for letting us borrow a little bit of your time, letting us into a little bit of your space, and just letting us come in and do what we do, and that’s just talk!

    From time to time, things fly off the rails, take a turn for the good or the bad, they go astray, shit goes left...Well, this might be a smidge of one of those episodes. Nothing too crazy, but today's episode, we never quite made it past the Question of the Week. It was a good one, and as they often do, it took us down a few different paths, roads and avenues. None to hurt, harm or discourage anyone from living life, but to open up new ways of thinking, being open, to laugh and most of all, for entertainment. So come smile with us, and enjoy the question, the conversation, and join in, share your thoughts.


    This week's Question of the Week is what's something that's "taboo," but you're curious about and maybe want to try? So we would like to give a working definition of taboo, and that is a social or religious custom prohibiting or forbidding discussion of a particular practice or forbidding association with a particular person, place, or thing. Now, with that being said, what's your thing? What are you curious about, but maybe haven't tried because of how you'll be perceived, how you'll be judged? You KNOW we're going to give you all of our thoughts, and we might just change your mind on your thinking, on how you view a couple of things. Just a couple though...lol But this is one that we really would like your answers. What's something that's taboo that you've been curious about, and maybe even want to try? Let's talk about it! Let's get into it!


    As always, we appreciate you giving us a little of your time, letting us borrow a little of your space, to let us just come in and do what we do, and that's just talk! Praying these words connect and help in some way! Continue to tell a friend to tell a friend to come be our friends, so we can all be friends!

    As you know we like to jump right in, and today’s Question of the Week is all about you! What are your top 3 things you do to relax? Some people just need the peace and quiet of nothingness, some like a hot bath, writing, even just enjoying a good playlist session, but we want ti know yours. What ate you doing to wind down, clear your mind? Let’s talk about it!


    This week’s topic actually has some ties to the Question of the Week, depending on how you look at it. This week we discuss creating iur own happiness. As we’ve said so many times before, happiness is an inside job, and we shouldnt rely on others to make us happy, right? So what are we doing to make ourselves happy? Are we taking that relax time to unwind, are we making sure we reward ourselves properly? Whats the last thing you did to make yourself smile? And how long ago was that? Do we really even know what happiness is, because if not, then how do we know how yo get there? We get into all of this, but as always, we want you in in thia too. Besides spending time wjth DRopping Dymes, what else are you doing to make yourself happy? Let’s talk about it!

Hopefully we share something, drop a dyme or two that you can pick up, save in your piggy bank of life, and cash it in when the time is right, and it makes sense in your situation!


    Today’s Question of the Week kinda stirs the pot in a sense. What’s a toxic trait that you have, you really don’t plan on getting rid of, so others might just have to get used to? There are a couple of questions that can be behind this one, like should all toxic traits be changed? Are toxic traits and our “super power” somewhat related? With that being said, what do you possibly need to let go, but you probably won’t? We won’t tell anybody, promise! 🤞🏾


    On today’s episode of DDP, we had a guest, and a pretty dope one at that! Music A&R, sound engineer, DJ, and all entrepreneur, J. Rich! The discussion; Staying Patient! We talk about the work, the drive, the love that has to be put in behind the scenes for the rewards to even remotely be seen. J talks about the years of work he’s put in to get to this level. We also discuss being flexible in what you, picking up as much as you can along the way, how trusting the process is a must, but also knowing that pay off isn’t always paid in money. A very good talk, with a hard working guy, that loves what he does! Let’s get into it, and I’m almost sure you’ll find those dymes in this one!


    We really do appreciate you giving us a little of your time, letting us borrow a little of your space, to let us just come in and do what we do, and that's just talk!

  • HELP! | EPISODE #108 | Dropping Dymes Podcast

    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back, to yet another episode, in another awesome season!!! Thank you for pulling back up on us! We are back, and making it happen, just for you all, and a little bit for us. We greatly appreciate your presence, and want to thank you for letting us borrow a little bit of your time, letting us into a little bit of your space, and just letting us come in and do what we do, and that’s just talk! Hopefully we share something, drop a dyme or two that you can pick up, save in your piggy bank of life, and cash it in when the time is right, and it makes sense in your situation!


    This week’s Question of the Week was pretty wide open, but funny, and led us in at least 5 different directions, but What’s the craziest thing you’ll do for 1 million dollars? We went from smoking crack, to blowing up a building, to even pushing down a kid, so yeah, this one is super wide open. Don’t overthink it like us. When you hear it, what’s the first and craziest thing that popped in your head? Let’s hear those answers! Let’s talk about it!


    This week’s episode we dive into Asking for Help. This is probably one that touches home for a lot of men, and even a tough spot or position for some ladies. We won’t live on this earth without needing help from someone else. Whether at work, home, the store, grabbing for something that maybe you can’t reach, financially, spiritually, you have to admit, we all need help in life, but the tough part is asking for it. Maybe it’s a feeling of being inadequate, maybe it’s figuring out the words to say to ask, maybe it’s the thought of being denied the help, something has made us all reluctant to ask. People around us have told us so many times that they’re there for you, they’re willing to do so, but something makes it tough. We will all need it, literally, and sometimes, it’s the next step in being a better version of yourself. We will all have our reasons, but for every fivefive reasons you don’t or won’t ask, please find one to ask. Know there are people around you that are willing to help, so listen to those people, and if that moment occurs, don’t hesitate to ask and confide in those people.


    As always, we appreciate you giving us a little of your time, letting us borrow a little of your space, to let us just come in and do what we do, and that's just talk!

    This week’s Question of the Week is a good one. The literal and the one that made you super nervous or scared about life, but what’s your biggest nightmare? We discuss the dreams that felt super real, scared us while we slept, and then those scenarios that scared us about life. The slo-mo running, to being beat up, in our own dreams, we share and share the laughs! What about you, what’s been one of your scariest or worse nightmares?


    We’ve talked about starting, and how important that is, but things don’t always go as we’d planned, and we realize we have to make some modifications, and just how important it is to be okay with Starting Over. We discuss how we’ve all at some point in life had to really start over. Sometimes, we start over and have to go alone, sometimes we start over with our team, but starting over has plenty of benefits and can be linked to plenty of growth!

  • GAINING WEIGHT | Dropping Dymes Podcast | Episode #105

    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back, to yet another episode, in yet another season!!! Thank you for pulling back up on us! We missed y'all, and that's a whole fact!!! We greatly appreciate your presence, and want to thank you for letting us borrow a little bit of your time, letting us into a little bit of your space, and just letting us come in and do what we do, and that’s just talk! Hopefully we share something, drop a dyme or two that you can pick up, save in your piggy bank of life, and cash it in when the time is right, and it makes sense in your situation!


    This week's Question of the Week was a good one, and we got answers from you all, and of course we offer ours as well. What's the worst thing that's happened while on a date? Some of these answers are hilarious, crazy, wild and will have you like nahhh! Some of the things people have encountered in dating are movie worthy! So, in the comments, let us know what's been your craziest date moments? Also, we want you to send in your questions that can be the Question of the Day. We'll give our answers, and also run it by the rest of the DDP viewers to get their responses as well. And just like I said, if your question is chosen as the QOTW, you'll receive a DDP t-shirt. So, send in some good questions!


    Today's topic can take a few different turns, and if it can, it will on the Dropping Dymes Podcast. Today we talk Gaining Weight. And whatever you think it's about, that's exactly what it is! We discuss the different ways that "weight" can be gained, distributed, managed, maintained, gained and loss. We have to realize that we're constantly carrying weight in some form. Whether we're talking our physical body weight, our psychological and mental weight, financial weight, we are carrying, but the bigger part to this is how are we managing this/ these weights? Are you getting stronger to be able to carry them easier, are you looking to shed some weight to make it easier to bare and carry, or you standing still, possibly in fear of not being able to move that weight? All weight isn't bad, because there have been times when some people have wanted to gain weight, to help in the process of getting stronger, preparing them for what could be down the line, so we don't want you to think that the "gaining weight" notion is always a bad thing. It has the ability to be both good, and not so good, and we talk both, and what we think we can do to be able to manage both. Let's get it into, let's grow!


    As always, we appreciate you giving us a little of your time, letting us borrow a little of your space, to let us just come in and do what we do, and that's just talk!

  • WHAT THAT TRAUMA CAN DO

    WHAT THAT TRAUMA CAN DO | Dropping Dymes Podcast | Episode #104


    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back, to yet another episode, in yet another season!!! Thank you for pulling back up on us! We are back, and making it happen, just for you all, and a little bit for us. We greatly appreciate your presence, and want to thank you for letting us borrow a little bit of your time, letting us into a little bit of your space, and just letting us come in and do what we do, and that’s just talk! Hopefully we share something, drop a dyme or two that you can pick up, save in your piggy bank of life, and cash it in when the time is right, and it makes sense in your situation!


    Today's episode, based on the title, you might think "Lord, not another one of those," but we get into it, and how we actually used it to grow, and it really does show "What That Trauma Can Do." We dive in and discuss experiences that we've encountered in life that may have at some point left us scarred. Those scars can be for a moment, can remain with us for years, or even for life. When you decide that you don't want to carry those, a plan of action is taken. Whether we seek therapy, the guidance of others, or whatever helps, we are using that to help us grow in the right direction, in some way, fashion or form.


    Growth isn't always good, and can sometimes create paths leading us away from being "better from it." Sometimes, this creates phobias, levels of fear, complacency, and a number of other things. On today's episode, we talk about how we have decided to take our trauma, and in which way we decided to let it help us grow. One of the biggest reasons we push "Let's grow together!"


    Something new we're looking to start, instead of our question of the week, send in questions that you would like us to answer during the episode. Take this as a part of our growth, for you!
