THE HARDEST PARTS OF BEING A MAN

Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way back to another episode of Dropping Dymes Podcast!!! We definitely do appreciate you coming back or if it's your first time, thanks for coming through for the first time! Thanks for letting us borrow a little of your time, for letting us into a little of your space, and for letting us just come through and do what we do, and that's just talk! Hopefully we're dropping a "dyme" or two, and you're able to add them to life's piggy bank, and you're able to cash these in, at the right time. So thank you, thank you, and yep, thank you too!

Before we go any further, we want to get this good Question of the Day out, and we want to ask you What is something that's non-sexual that turns you on? We definitely know that we all like what we like, but what are those things that sometimes catch you off guard, but makes you smile, inside, out, and make some other parts tingle...lol Let us know! Let's talk about it! Also, while you're here, give us something that you're thankful for, no matter how small, how big, family, your job, whatever it is, give us a couple of those things as well! We can tell you now, we're definitely thankful for you!!!

So on to today's talk, and we talk about Weaponizing Sex. The only way for something to be "weaponized" is if it's something someone seemingly needs or wants. Once that need or want is exploited, or used against someone, we land here, at it being weaponized. We discuss how it makes us feel, when or if it's ever been used against us, how we combated it then, how we combat it now, and our advice on not allowing it to be used against you. Taking something away in any other instance would almost seen as childish, but some use this tactic as their way of getting whatever it is they're wanting, but does it actually work, or create levels of frustration that could possibly lead one to stray with that energy? Yeah, we really get into this one, and hopefully our words can get into you, and maybe help a situation before it even happens, or prayerfully stop one from ever happening.

As always we hope our words helped in some way, and really stop someone from having to touch that stove, receive that burn to hopefully learn. Learn from the scars that we've encountered. Know that these talks are from the heart, no matter how we add a comedic spin, we're hoping to help someone, maybe it's you today, but someone, nonetheless.

Thank you for letting us in, to share, to talk to help, and hopefully we've dropped a dyme or two that can help. Please, please, please continue to tell a friend to tell a friend to come be our friend, so we can all be friends. Continue to Subscribe, Share Comment, Like and Hit that bell, of course! We're also on Spotify and Apple Podcast, just in case you're tired of our faces, and only want to listen...lol Either way, know that we love you, we care and we really mean it! Have an amazing day, week and rest of the year!

Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back! We missed you, and because we did, we got a good one for you! Before we go any further, thank you! Thank you for letting us borrow a little of your time, borrow a little of your space, and for just letting us do what we do, and that's just talk! Hopefully we're dropping a couple of dymes, a little something you can add to your "bank of life," and cash in when the time is right.

Today's Question of the Day really wasn't a questions, but just us having a conversation about this horrific shooting that took place in Brooklyn(Flatbush), New York. I'm sure most of you have seen it or heard about it, but a downstairs neighbor had been complaining about the upstairs neighbor, and they making excessive noise. This had been documented and was a known issue. The video shows the downstairs neighbor(DSN) going to confront the upstairs neighbor(USN) for what would be the last time. DSN ends up shooting and killing the the USN and his step-son. The shooting was filmed by security cameras, but no sound was provided. Was we dive into what was might have triggered the DSN to decide to shoot the USN this time, what could have gone different to prevent this, and more thoughts on the whole situation. And if you saw this, what are your thoughts on this tragedy, that seemingly could have been avoided? Let's talk about it!

Today's episode deals with something that we've talked around, but never directly discussed, and that's vulnerability. Today, we touch on the subject, what it looks like for each of us, how we've opened up with the right safe space being created, and even how we've been closed off when it wasn't there. We discuss what can make those moments be even few and far between, and how to get your man to open up and share with you all the time. Safe spaces aren't created overnight, and sometimes that trust can take a while to be properly created, but once it's there, it's detrimental that it be upheld and maintained, or it can be lost, and possibly never really reestablished. We talk about ours, but do you think you've been in a relationship with a man who's been vulnerable with you? Guys, have you even been in a relationship where you felt safe and were able to be completely vulnerable and transparent? How was that for you?

As always, thank you for pulling up, listening to us talk, sharing a little of your time, and that corner of your space! If you told someone, thank you, because we like when you tell a friend to tell a friend, so we can all be friends! We're still on our mission of 1K friends by the end of this good year of 2023.

BREAKING GENERATIONAL CURSES

Welcome, welcome in, and welcome back!!! You've stopped by something special, and we really do appreciate you stopping by! We thank you for letting us borrow a little bit of your time, letting us into a little of your space, and just letting us do what we do, and that's just talk! Hopefully you're able to pick up a little something from what we're putting down.

First, we get to that good Question of the Week, and this week we want to know What's been one of or your greatest moment in life? We've all had our moment or moments, but give us one that sticks out to you most? Usually, it's the steps that lead to that moment that make us remember it so much, but let us hear yours. Whether it was getting that promotion you worked so hard for, your first touchdown, holding your child, getting married, paying off your student loans, let us know. Let's talk about it!

Today's episode is about setting proper expectations. Whether we're talking romantic relationships, with your career, with friendships, but overall, just in life. One thing with setting proper expectations is setting boundaries, clear communication, being upfront and honest. If these aren't a part of the formula, it could be on the road to disaster, or at least unspoken expectations. Setting proper expectations can get a bit easier when you have a better understanding of yourself, knowing what you're okay with, what you aren't okay with, etc. When's a time you feel like the proper expectation wasn't set, or maybe you didn't set the proper expectation, and what was the outcome? Let's hear it, let's talk about it!

Again, thank you all for letting us in, letting us borrow a little of your time, and letting us into a little of your space! If you didn't this time, next time, bring a friend, and tell them to bring a friend, so we can all be friends! And if you're here and you haven't just yet, please click on that Subscribe button, Share, Comment and go ahead and Hit that Bell! And as always, we love y'all!

Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back!!! We missed you all like crazy, and we know you all missed us too, even if it's just a little bit, y'all did! Here we are, willing, ready and happy to be here with you! And thank you for letting us borrow a little of your time, a little of your space, and just letting us do what we do and that's just letting us talk, share our perspectives, and hopefully drop off a little something that you can use later or right now if you need it!

Of course, you know we got that Question of the Week for you all, and it kind of turned into two. One, the regular weekly one, and the other, just a quick question from the topic. The Question of the Week is What's the most embarrassing thing you've been caught doing, or caught someone else doing? We know this can be tough to share something embarrassing, so you can always inbox us and share, but let us know. The next one came from this episode's discussion, but when you shower, take a bath, whatever you prefer, when you do that, do you use the same towel to wash your body and your face, or do you use 2 separate towels? Let us know! Come talk to us about it!

Now on to today's episode, and we're talking Male Grooming, and just how important it really is to men, how important it should be, and how it can impact the relationships with yourself and those around you. Grooming can change the way we move, how we view ourselves, how others view us and how we manage to move through life. Sometimes, something as simple as a haircut can change the way you feel about yourself. We're not saying this can't or can do the same for ladies, but we can only speak from our perspectives, but we would love to hear your thoughts. How does getting your manicure and pedicure make you feel? We've given how grooming can change our day, make us feel a little better, so let us know how getting your hair done makes you feel? If that's not your thing, give us what grooming moment makes you feel your best? Let's talk about it!

Something is else that makes us feel good is knowing that you're here! Thank you again for coming by, but don't forget to bring and/or tell a friend, then have them bring a friend so we can all be friend! We love your perspective, but we need more!

Welcome, welcome in, welcome back!!! We missed you all, and we appreciate you all for coming through, and for coming back! Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting us borrow a little bit of your time, a little bit of your space, and just letting us do what we do, and that’s just talk! We give our perspectives, share our thoughts and hope a little bit of what we’re putting down is worth you picking up, adding it to your tool belt got life, and as life’s “projects” happen, some of this might be able to help!

Today’s episode get started with the Question of the Week, and this week we have another “either-or.” If you had to choose, would you rather work with all men or all women, and why? We asked on social media, and we got mixed answers, but most of the ladies would rather work with men, and that’s kind of surprising, but in some ways, not really surprising. Finally a week or no swaying from our own cast, but we know how quickly it can flip over here for one of the guys.

This week’s episode is The Confidence of a Man. We discuss how being confident as a man can sometimes make or break you. We give our breakdowns on where our confidence originated from, who help build us, and even what we find ourselves struggling with, even now, as men. How being overly confident be a detriment at times, when it’s seen as such by someone who doesn’t understand it. How does confidence impact the way you receive a man?

Let us know your thoughts, let us know what confidence does to you, in seeing it and does within you. You know we love hearing your perspectives as well! And while you’re here, bring a friend!

Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way back! We're happy you're here, delighted to have you here, and really appreciate your presence! Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting us borrow a little of your time, and letting us into a little of your space, just to let us talk! We're just here sharing our thoughts, giving out perspectives and hoping a little something we're putting down, you're picking up, and it can be added to your toolbelt for life's projects as they come along.

Today's episode of course comes with this week's Question of the Week. This week, it was another "either-or." This week we want to know which would you want, unlimited money 💵 or unlimited time ⏳? We always want to know your why, but as always, there's no wrong answer, but in true Dropping Dymes fashion, we can always help sway your answer, but most definitely help sway Wallace's answer...lol

The week's episode is the value of the argument. There are valuable things to take away from tough discussion and conversations. Like any conversation, listening is important during disagreements, being able to share your thoughts clearly is just as important, but like proverbs have said, we have 1 mouth and 2 ears for a reason, so that listening portion may be a little more important, but as always, the communication itself is important! We discuss some of our past tougher conversation, our disagreements and what we learned from them. We give our thoughts on how we've grown, how we continue to grow now and hearing things from each other during the talk and taking away tools ourselves.

Give us something you learned from having those tough talk, disagreements or arguments. Do you think you've grown out of arguing? Talk to us! You know we love to hear from you all, and love hearing your perspectives as well! Thanks, as always for letting us into a little of your time, and a little of your space. Please continue to tell a friend to tell a friend to come be our friend, and we can all be friends! Make sure they Subscribe, everybody Comment, Share and Hit that 🔔 !!! Know that we mean it when we say it, but we love y'all! 💪🏾✊🏾🤞🏾🤟🏾

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Big Show! Thanks for visiting another episode of Dropping Dymes Podcast, and because you decided to come over and give us a chance, we want to take a moment and say thank you! We appreciate you giving us a little of your time, letting us into a little of your space, and just letting us talk, and hopefully drop a dyme or two that you can add to your tool belt for life to use later!

This week's Question of the Week was brought to you by our own Wallace, and it was "If you could do anything as a career, and money's no object, what would you do?" Let us know what you would love to do. In theory, it would be what you're passionate about, but let us know your thoughts.

This week's episode is about the power of the tongue. How much power do you think your words over your life, and the lives of others? Sometimes we find ourselves speaking down on others, or even ourselves, and before you know it, that mindset can set in, and you see those words manifest into reality. So with that in mind, why not speak positivity into your life and those around you, and watch those words begin to manifest? We have to do a better job of getting that positive mindset, and projecting those positive words onto others! Being kind goes a long way!

We appreciate you all coming by, listening to us talk our talk, share our perspectives and stories, and have these conversations that we think more people should be having, out loud.

Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back to Thee Dropping Dimes Podcast! As you can tell by the title, you should know that you're in for a good one! It might not be as educational as you'd think, and Wallace thought it would be as well, but you definitely will get your weekly laugh!

Before we get you too deep into the episode, we take on the Question of the Week, and for this week, we want to know if you had to raise you, do you think you could do a better job than your parents did with you? the question is definitely loaded, and we had to really think about it as we answered. We even threw another question of the day in there from Brandon, and that one was "Which would you rather have shown, loyalty or respect?" we weren't expecting this one, but turned into a good conversation. Also watching Wallace sway on which he would rather have shown to him is classic Wallace...lol

Today's episode is brought to us by lotion, vaseline and crusty socks...lol If you don't know yet, we're going to be talking about self pleasuring, and all that comes along with it. How did you start to explore yourself? What drove you to it? After a while, is it still about the sexual release, or could it be brought about for other reason? What's the end game? These and so many other questions get answered, from the Dropping Dymes Podcast, so of course, get ready for your laughs, and the "OMG Brandon" response...lol
