Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 68 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Space Colonizers.” There is something unholy and unnatural about the billionaires’ race into space. In this episode, I tell you what so off-putting about it to me.

I’ll also try and point your direction to how we must begin to pay more attention to the growing partisan-politicization of US public school boards. If we truly care about ALL students’ rights to learn, we have to begin to be more active in school board advocacy. I’ll tell you why.

Finally, we have to applaud Zaila Avant-garde for her recent Scripps Spelling Bee win. But, we also can’t forget to pay homage to the Black girl once deprived of her victory, Ms. MacNolia Cox. Learning about her doesn’t lessen our celebration of Zaila, but helps us understand just how sweet it is!

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 67 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Every Old Person Ain’t Your Elder.” I’m about tired of some of these gate-keeping, respectability folks and I share with you why in this episode.

You might have heard me say before that history holds the keys to our tomorrows and our todays. In this episode, I show you how I use history in this way. The reality is our ancestors left messages intentionally for us; it does us well to remember them.

I use Anna Julia Cooper’s famous quote from her A Voice From the South to drive this episode so I can’t wait to hear what you think

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 66 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Finding What You Seek.” When I was a little girl, my grandmother used to tell me that you will always find what you’re looking for. This week, the advice hit a bit differently for me and I want to share that with you.

We’ll also talk (just a little) about this Critical Race Theory mess of a distraction.

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 65 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Lessons from Tulsa.” Buckle up; I’m on my soapbox in this one.

From instructions on how to learn about and celebrate Juneteenth, to lamentations about how Tulsa is currently being (mis)remembered, I’ll share with you my musings about freedom in this current era.

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 63 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"A Tribute to Dark Man X.” I had to make some scheduling adjustments to today’s episode. Originally, today was supposed to be a Midlife Musings episode with Brandon, but instead word about DMX’s death moved me to upload this episode.

Shortly after recording, I learned about the lynching of Daunte Wright at the hands of police just around the way from Derek Chauvin’s trial and it all became a bit too much for me. I contemplated scrapping this episode too and trying to get something—anything—up about Wright’s murder.

As you can see, I decided against that—not because Wright’s death doesn’t deserve and episode (because it certainly does), but because Black life has to endure even in the face of tragedy. If our work stopped everytime one of us was murdered, we’d get almost nothing done. AND, Earl Simmons (DMX) deserves his tribute. He deserves our attention—perhaps now more than ever.

So this episode remains as it was—dedicated to the life and legacy of DMX. We’ll talk about Daunte Wright next week (and we pray there is no further tragedy before that).

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 62 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Classic Love Songs are Good Medicine.”

Listen, please do me a favor, if you can find any videos from last night’s Verzuz between Earth, Wind, and Fire and The Isley Brothers, do yourself a favor and go watch! If you weren’t there in real time, you missed a real treat. Soul music was named that for a reason! In this I muse on possible connections between real love songs sung by folks like the Elements and the Isley’s and the kind of clarity it takes to truly practice personal development. Make sure you give that part a close listen and decide for yourself if you’re using classic love songs and they good music they have the potential to be.

If we are intentional about what we ingest (including our musical diets), we can be assured that we will have greater control over what we are able to manifest in our lives. I believe that listening to those old love songs can help us get clear about the kinds of relationships we want to manifest, but also the kind of person we want to show up in those relationships as.

And, in terms of our own personal development being clear on who we want to be matters a whole lot.

Oh and tell me about the new sound effects. Are they working for you? Send me an email to let me know and don’t forget to leave a 5-star review on the app you’re using to listen. Thanks!

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 61 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Turning Inward Together.”

Listen, please do me a favor, if watching trials like that of Derek Chauvin bring you stress give this episode a listen. I want us to be consciously aware of how those images either add to our well-being or subtract from it. Our holistic health and wellness depends heavily on us being aware of how the things we ingest (including media images and messages) affect us.

In addition to some advice I give about not becoming numb to racial violence and police brutality, I also tell you about some small lifestyle changes that have contributed to some pretty big feelings lately. I can’t wait to hear what you think about them. If you’re looking for the Bishop Chronicles podcast, you can find it here.

If you want to join in the #7x5challenge, make sure you’re following me over on IG (@tiffanydphd). I look forward to seeing your pics!

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 60 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"The Puppetmaster.” Today’s episode will hopefully remind you we need to be consciously aware of the ways we are often manipulated by the media. We’ll spend some time discussing the “model minority” myth and what it has to do with Anti-AAPI racism. (The article I reference by Au and Chang can be found here)

Although this show is not a gossip column, we will discuss the scandal revolving around a relatively popular Black Relationship “expert” and what we need to be remembering as we witness the fall out.

Once again, our history holds the keys of what we need to move forward.

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 59 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"A Woman’s Worth.” Honey!!! Happy International Women’s Day! Today’s episode of the podcast is all about women and the work they do to make this world a better place.

I’ll share one of my favorite stories of the orisa Osun and how it allows us to see the critical nature in divine efficiency and how Osun’s behavior can help inform the strategies used by women who feel overworked and/or invisible.

I remind you that it is not Black women’s responsibility to save the world, even if we do so time and time again. I share with you four strategies non-women can take to honor us and four strategies we must take to be well.

I’ll end the podcast wishing you a “Decade of No.” Wonder what I mean? Listen and let me know what you think.

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 58 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Activism as a Life Purpose.” I’ve been thinking long and hard about what I want my mark on this world to be. Some of the reason that I think that I’m here is to be a teacher. But, even in that, I believe my ultimate responsibility is service to community. I’ll do my best to explain to you what this means for me.

In this episode I’ll also remind you that you DESERVE to be compensated. Black Luxury is not something to run from.
