  • Social Media Activism & SARS

    With so much happening in the world, many have taken to social media to express their frustrations with the current state of their communities. Some people have targeted celebrities by calling out their silence regarding the SARS protests in Nigeria. Do celebrities have an obligation to speak on political issues? Why do people call out celebrities for staying silent on social issues? Does having a big platform make someone obligated to highlight, donate, or speak on certain issues? Why do we hold celebrities like Beyonce and Taylor Swift to standards we cant live up to ourselves? My friend Amanda (@amandaxalli) joins me to discuss! GO VOTE!

  • What Would You Do?

    What would you do if someone knowingly gave you an incurable STD? If you were an NFL player would you stand or take a knee and risk your future earnings. If you made significantly more than your partner, would you sign a prenup?  

     

    On this week's episode, I'm joined by Enrique (@enriqueescobvr) of "In the Lounge" podcast. Enrique and I discuss several scenarios and how we would handle each one. Life isn't ever black & white. There are shades of grey to every situation and we discuss them in this episode. I hope you enjoy! Be sure to leave a rating/review on Apple Podcast!

  • THE SOCIAL DILEMMA

    Where is the limit when it comes to technology in your life? As technology increases, companies have tried to encroach on our everyday lives. Do you own an Amazon Alexa? Do you use a fingerprint scanner? When will you allow your child access to a phone or social media?

     

    This week, our fave Steffi (@inn_mho) joins me to talk about technology, privacy, and our addiction to social media. We both watched Netflix's new documentary 'The Social Dilemma' and it inspired us to discuss the past, present & future of social media. What was your first phone? Are you a fan of green messages?

  • Emergency Episode: Can 2020 Get Any Worse? RIP RBG

    Just when you thought 2020 couldn't get any worse...Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg dies and now chaos ensues. What will happen with the upcoming election? Will Trump nominate a replacement just days before the election? This year has proven things CAN and WILL get worse but listen to us rant about it anyway!

     

    In this week's episode, I'm joined by my boy Dupree of 'In The Lounge' podcast as we talk about the future of our democracy as we know it. Should we hold RBG responsible for not retiring during Obama's presidency? Why are black people easily impressed? Why do people think their vote doesn't matter? We discuss all of this and MORE! Get your prayer cloths out!

  • I MAY DESTROY YOU

    Does a bisexual man have an obligation to disclose his sexuality to a woman he's dating? If a guy removes a condom during sex, is that considered rape? Why don't men come forward with their stories of sexual abuse? We attempt to answer these questions...

     

    This week our fave Steffi (@inn_mho) is back to discuss HBO's hit show 'I May Destroy You' and the complicated issues the show delved into. This show deals with a woman who goes out for a night of drinks only to find herself roofied and raped. She then tries to piece together her life while the audience follows her and other characters through their own personal issues dealing with rape, abuse, discrimination & consent.

     

    It's okay if you haven't watched the show. I'm covering this on the podcast because the questions the show raised are relevant for EVERYONE. I hope you enjoy part one of this discussion it is definitely complicated.

  • Should Cyberbullying Be Criminalized?

    Should your significant other have access to your phone password? Are white people allowed to have their own college club based on their race? Is it unethical for an actor to hide their terminal illness from a movie studio that has them in mind for multiple sequels?

     

    This week Steffi (@inn_mho) joins me as we play a round of ‘Unpopular Opinions!’ Do you agree with our takes on these issues? RIP Chadwick Boseman.

  • Stop Gentrifying Black Culture

    Why do Black people easily allow others to come in and appropriate their culture? Black people are the most exploited group in America but in some instances, it seems like they are complicit in the exploitation of black culture. This week I'm joined by Dupree (@_donnie_f) of 'In the Lounge' Podcast as we discuss cultural appropriation and its usages in pop culture and the rest of the world. Is Justin Timberlake a culture vulture? Is Ariana Grande using tanning to look racially ambiguous? We discuss it all!

  • What Is White Culture?

    Everyone has a culture but this week I wanted to discuss what White Americans celebrate as part of their culture. Guns? Hunting for sport? Country music? Why do we have such a hard time pinpointing what their culture is? In this episode, we try to answer that question. I'm joined by fan of the show Julia (@jukeboxbluez) on this episode! She's white btw lol.
