  • FEELING UNHEARD AND UNSEEN | Dropping Dymes Episode 90
    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back!!! Thank you for pulling up on 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 another Top 5 list, and this week, it's what's your top 5 rappers? Now, don't mistake this for the top 5 all time or any of those list, but just your top 5. We're southerners, of course, so a lot of time, we hear our music and may not stretch our musical ears, but guess what? It doesn't matter right now, because these are just OUR very own favorites...lol Of course we give our top 5, no apologies given for who we enjoy either. We would also like to know yours, if you don't mind sharing with us, and the rest of the world. Whether it's GloRilla, Jay-Z, Boosie, Dr. Dre, Biggie, Pac, Scarface, doesn't really matter, let us hear it. Let's talk about it!
    This week's episode we get into those times that we might not have had a voice, or at least one that was loud enough, those times when we weren't the shining star and didn't get the attention from those who mattered most, but we ask the question "Has there been a time when you felt unseen or unheard?" Immediately, the we realized that this conversation could go in so many directions, and of course we tried taking it in a few directions that may resonate with you all the most. As a child, I think a lot of kids weren't heard, especially as it pertained to how things made us feel emotionally, but we we also talk about not being seen at times. How sometimes we've felt even unseen or unheard by spouses or significant others. This happens by loved ones more than one would think, especially considering these are usually the ones we want to hear us or see us the most, but it happens. This also goes into our work environments, kids at school, etc. Now, we want to know when was the last time you felt unseen or unheard? Was it at work, was it at home, with your family, friends? 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 friends to tell their friends to come be our friends, so we can all be friends!

  • LET GO: What do you need to RELEASE? | Dropping Dymes Podcast Episode 89
    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back!!! Thank you for pulling up on 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 an awesome one, and it was simply What is something in your life you need to let go? And the answers from the guys turned into an all our episode of growth. That's literally promoted here, and you might witness it on film in this episode. I think we all have things that we need to release. Bad habits mostly. No matter how small we think these things are, if they hinder our growth, it is something we should be considering to let go! We acknowledge those things, and then attack how to move forward and rid ourselves of those habits. The old saying is "bad habits die hard," and this definitely holds true to a lot of us. Some of these habits, we don't even consider "bad" because we've been doing them just that long. Even more reason for us to outgrow them, but doesn't that possibly take us out of what's probably a comfort zone? We know that nothing growing resides in our comfort zones, so this in itself gives us even more reason to let them go. I'm sure, like the guys, you have a couple of habits that we need to let go, and since you're here, let's talk about it! What's something you need to let go, or is your "something" a someone? 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 friends to tell friends to come be our friends, so we can all be friends!

    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back!!! Thank you for pulling up on 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!

    We do have a Question of the Week, and it’s fairly light hearted. What are 3 of your top favorite movies? What genre of movies can make you just sit down and enjoy it, wholeheartedly? Are you more of a comedy, rom-com, sci-fi, thrillers, straight horror? Let us know, what’s your favorite movies, genre and what made you lean in that direction? Let’s talk about it!
    Today’s episode, today’s talk is brought to you by something we’ve all probably experienced, had to live through, had to redeem ourselves from in some way and that’s Poor Decisions. It’s a part of life, absolutely! But what did you do after to get yourself back to a better place, how did you redeem yourself? We get into what steps we think should happen, better planning, owning the bad decisions, we talk about a couple of the “not so good” decisions we made, and how we managed them following those times in life. This can be tough, especially when we’re not ready to have those accountability talks within yourself or with others. We’d never just ask you to tell us about your bad decisions, but what was the bounce back like? What do you think was your biggest takeaway from that time in your life?
    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 friends to tell friends to come be our friends, so we can all be friends!

Of course you’re going to get some humor out of us, but we all had pretty solid answers. A lot of times, the quotes or sayings we live by are what keep us grounded and lifted in the same breath.

  • WELCOME TO 2024- Dropping Dymes Podcast Episode 82
    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way back, and welcome into 2024 with us! You KNOW we missed you all, more than you'd ever think, and we're more than ready to show you...but not really. Actually, a funny story... We were soooo anxious and so ready to get into this new episode and get the year going with you all that we were double and triple checking things, and actually checked it too much. We ended up starting the camera, and double checked and ended up stopping it by mistake, but we were able to hold on the the awesome audio! So here we are, still giving you all that we got, and hoping it falls right where it should with anyone who has an opportunity to hear.
    We're starting the year off with an awesome guest, Anthony "Nacho" Nunez from our flag football team, Georgia Smoke. Right from the beginning, Nacho brought in a different kind of energy, and the room was filled to capacity with nothing but good vibes from that point forward! Nacho was definitely an addition, and an addition in a major way.
    Today, we play the question game with you, and it was another good session. Of course, you'll laugh, you'll think, you'll get our perspective, and hopefully, we drop a dyme or two that you can pick up, and add to your life piggybank, and you're able to cash in later. As always, we offer the perspectives of 3 regular guys, giving some funny, some serious, some tough, some loving, some experience talks.
    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 friends to tell friends to come be our friends, so we can all be friends!

  • WHEN TO WALK AWAY- Dropping Dymes Podcast Episode 81
    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back! And this is the last welcome back of the year, and for sticking around with us for another year, we appreciate you for sticking with us through another year! We say it often, but as we close out the year, we will say it yet again, thank you for giving us a little of your time, letting us borrow a little of your space, and letting us just do what we do, and that's just TALK! Hopefully in these conversations that we're having, we drop a dyme or two that you can add to you "Piggy bank of life," and you're able to cash it in at the right time, and it can help your life in some way. So hopefully we're adding to, and not taking from.
    This week’s Question of the Week was a good one. Wallace watched an episode of The Pivot where they sat down and talked to rapper Dee-1. Awesome interview with an amazingly talented young man, but it brought up the debate on whether or not it’s up to the artist to change or clean up their content once they make it to a certain status in their careers. We discuss how it impacts young Americans, but deeper, young African Americans, their decision making, their life outlooks, crime and the African American community as a whole. Let us know your thoughts as well. Do you think it becomes the responsibility of artist to change their content to help in the uplifting of the community, or should we see it for entertainment and that’s all? Let’s talk about it!
    Today’s episode, When to Walk Away, is one of those that can go in a number of directions. Romantic relationships usually come to mind first, because matters of the heart are big to most of us, but sometimes it’s knowing when to walk away from a job, a friendship or anything else that you can walk away from. What are you willing to accept is totally up to you, and can’t be determined by what someone else has been able to carry or withstand. So, knowing “when” is big, but depending on the level of things, the “how” can be just a important. This is one of those conversations that could’ve gone on for hours, but we definitely didn’t want to bore you with all of that today, but we’re going to revisit this one, and soon!
    Today’s episode was the last full episode for the 2023 year. So we want to tell you thank you, we appreciate you, and if we don’t see you again between now and then, Happy Holidays to you and yours!
    Also with that being said, as always, we appreciate you, we thank you, for letting us have a little of your time, for letting us into a little of your space, to just let us in to do what we do, and that’s just talk. We’ve enjoyed sharing, listening, laughing, learning and continuing to be just us with y’all! Please, continue to Subscribe, Share, Comment, Like 👍🏾 and continue to Hit that Bell 🔔!!! It’s been a helluva year, helluva ride, and helluva good talk! We love y’all, we appreciate y’all and thank you all for being here with us!

  • GETTING SERIOUS - Dropping Dymes Podcast Episode 79
    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back, to another awesome episode of Dropping Dymes Podcast! Thank you for letting us borrow a little of your time, for letting us into a little of your space, to just let us do what we do, and that’s just talk! While we’re talking, hopefully we drop a dyme or two that you can deposit into you “bank of life,” and cash in when it’s needed!
    Of course we jump right into the Question of the Week, and we had a quick one and our regular weekly question. Quick one from Brandon, and it’s pretty straight forward. Do you think Diddy did it? Do you think the allegations are true?
    Weekly question from Byron is what’s your signature sex move, your go to move during sex? What’s the one thing you can go to, and drive your partner crazy, or maybe your “finish him/her” move? Let’s talk about it!
    This week’s episode is all about getting serious! If you read that and said “There’s a lot of things you can get serious about, guys. So get serious about what?” We literally mean everything! Getting serious about your career, getting serious about having a romantic partner, getting serious about your physical health or getting serious about almost anything else in life. We talk about what we think the process should look like, and what steps should happen in that process. When you make the decision to get serious about something, what are your steps to getting into it? Let’s talk about it! Let talk about what you do to lead you down your road to greatness.
    Thank you again for spending this time with us, for letting us into a little of your space, and letting us talk, drop a dyme here and there along the way. If you feel like you got anything from this one, have a friend swing by, send them a clip, encourage them to come be a new friend to DDP. So please continue to Subscribe, Share, Comment, Like 👍🏾 and Hit that Bell 🔔 for all the updates that we’ll be sending out, soon!
    Until next time, if no one tell you, know that we love you! 💪🏾✊🏾🤞🏾🤟🏾
