Pour Minds Podcast

This week, Lex P and Drea Nicole welcome a true legend to the Pour Minds couch! Grammy Award-winning gospel artist, producer, songwriter, and author Kirk Franklin joins the girls for a conversation that spans generations, music, faith, relationships, and everything in between. From the impact of classics like “Stomp” and “Revolution” to his latest project, Kirk reflects on his career, the evolution of gospel music, and what it means to create music that brings people together, even when they come from completely different backgrounds.

The conversation gets real as Kirk opens up about navigating criticism from the church, being judged for his appearance, and the expectations placed on people who publicly represent their faith. Lex P and Drea also get into religious trauma, the weaponization of Christianity, and the growing conversation around influencers using religion for the wrong reasons. Kirk shares his perspective on having a personal relationship with God, giving people room to grow, and why faith shouldn't be used as a reason to judge others.

And of course, we couldn't have Kirk Franklin on Pour Minds without getting into some relationship talk! The three discuss modern dating, the ongoing gender wars, what men and women expect from each other, and the difference between someone's potential and their reality. Kirk offers a different perspective on what it means to be open to love, recognizing a person's worth, and giving people the opportunity to show up as their best selves. Plus, we get into the story behind the music, plenty of laughs, a little preaching, and a few moments that prove no topic is off limits on this couch!

Pour up and tune in!

This week on Pour Minds, Lex P and Drea Nicole are holding it down solo, diving headfirst into the chaotic realities of autumn, bad culinary takes, and the fine line between romance and absolute delusion. From dragging the seasonal time change and mourning the cancellation of turkey bacon to debating George Washington’s history and why tomatoes are technically fruits, the ladies keep the energy lighthearted, unfiltered, and nonstop laughs.Things stay just as chaotic as the crew debates their absolute worst-case career nightmares, mixes up a seasonal fall cocktail, and places their predictions for the upcoming Super Bowl halftime show. The conversation quickly shifts to relationship standards as they debate whether you should truly be able to take your partner anywhere, why forced compatibility always backfires, and how to spot the red flags of resentment from day one.

And, of course, things get completely out of hand during the bed segment as the ladies debate whether you can truly fall in love with a man's natural pheromones, how a post-sex shower can mean his dick isn't hitting for anything, and reviewing a listener letter about a long-distance best friend who is sending dangerously mixed signals. Pour up and get ready, because between the unhinged stories and the vocal warm-ups, you're definitely going to need a drink before you press play.

This week on Pour Minds, Lex P and Drea Nicole are sitting down with rapper, singer, and
songwriter Akeem Ali, and from the second he steps into the room, the energy instantly turns
into pure, top-tier comedy. Akeem keeps it 100 on the harsh realities of independent touring,
why slow ticket sales will make an artist rethink their whole strategy, and the very specific (and
hilarious) target audience he relies on to keep his shows packed.

Things get nostalgic as Akeem takes the ladies on a hilarious trip down memory lane, opening
up about his alter ego, his high school days, and the unexpected setbacks that shaped his
hustle. The crew doesn't hesitate to press him on toxic relationship dynamics, either—debating
whether men ever truly regret losing a good woman. Akeem stands on business with his "facts
over feelings" philosophy, insisting nobody is irreplaceable, while Lex and Drea call out the wild
delusion men fall back on when they miss out on a real one.
And, of course, things get completely out of hand when they tackle an "expert" claim that men
should bring a woman to climax twice before penetration. Between whole-house inspection
analogies, "carpet rug burn" arguments, and hilarious audience advice, the room devolves into
pure chaos.

Pour up and get ready, because before you start inspecting the "back of the house," you
definitely need a drink in your hand for this one!

This week, Lex P and Drea Nicole are sitting down with comedy legend Ms. Pat, and
absolutely NOTHING is off limits! From her early days in Atlanta comedy to becoming a
household name in Hollywood, Ms. Pat gets candid about the hustle, hard work, and
business mindset that helped her build the career she has today.

Ms. Pat opens up about navigating fame while staying true to herself, setting
boundaries with friends and family, protecting her peace, and why everybody doesn't
need to know your next move. She also gets personal about raising seven children,
breaking generational cycles, redefining the American Dream, and the inspiration
behind her new memoir, Miss American Dream.

And, of course, things take a few unexpected turns as the ladies get into marriage,
dating, bedroom conversations, and why Ms. Pat has absolutely no filter!
Pour up and tune in because when Ms. Pat pulls up, you already know it's going to be a
time!

This week, Lex P and Drea Nicole are getting real about growing older, becoming more like their
parents, and the things they understand differently now than they did in their younger years.

The ladies talk about Lex’s experience visiting the Martin Luther King Jr. museum in Atlanta and
why revisiting Black history as an adult gave her a completely different perspective. They also
recap Lex’s birthday celebration, including a disappointing restaurant experience, a night at
Visions, and why sometimes the people around you can turn a bad experience into a great night.

Plus, the conversation gets into the proper way to sneak food into the movie theater, Lex’s
lifelong love for Taco Bell, and the things they used to judge people for that they now understand
differently. From spending money on luxury items to being emotional and vulnerable, Lex and
Drea reflect on growth, self-awareness, accountability, and learning to give people—and
themselves—a little more grace.

This week on Pour Minds, Lex P and Drea Nicole are joined by streamer and internet
personality Jordyn Lucas for an episode that goes completely off the rails before they can even
make it to the first topic.

Jordan gets real about breaking into the male-dominated streaming world, building her
community, investing thousands into her production, dealing with viral clips and learning how to
survive when everything you say can become a headline. She also opens up about leaving
Atlanta for Miami, starting over on her own, outgrowing friendships and betting on herself. Of
course, the ladies have to get into Jordan’s viral moment with Drake, the six-figure Kelly bag,
flying private for the first time and manifesting some of the biggest moments of her career. But
somewhere between the drinks, roommate horror stories, BBL talk, reasons they could NEVER
go to war and dragging internet trolls, the conversation turns into pure chaos.

Pour up and get ready, because this is definitely one you might want to have a drink before
watching.

Lex P and Drea Nicole are back with another hilarious solo episode, and as usual, the
conversation goes everywhere. The ladies kick things off debating whether you can really tell
what type of person somebody is just by looking at them, from facial features and eye contact to
the random physical traits that immediately make them suspicious.

The conversation turns to dating as Lex and Drea break down the careers and lifestyles that
would make them think twice about being with a man. From police officers and politicians to
men making their money in the streets, the ladies get real about what they’re willing to deal with
at this stage in their lives and why stability and legitimate income matter more than ever.
Later, they get into beauty, skincare, makeup, and how their relationships with their appearance
have changed over the years. They talk about feeling more comfortable going makeup-free,
learning to appreciate their natural skin, and eventually take the conversation into plastic
surgery, tummy tucks, breast reductions, scars, and some of the unexpected things that can
happen when you go under the knife.

Of course, it wouldn’t be Pour Minds without the conversation getting completely out of pocket
along the way. Between hilarious surgery stories, body talk, dating opinions, and plenty of side
conversations, Lex and Drea ultimately get real about body confidence, embracing your
imperfections, and why being comfortable in your own skin matters more than worrying about
what anybody else thinks.
