Mental health has been an important topic over the past few years. Can't really say where the phrase "mental health" started (I personally first heard it from Joe Budden), but it's the best way to describe all the turmoil that goes on in our head day by day. Us as humans tend overthink everything due to society's methonds and constraints. We feel the need to have a house before we're 30, have a career straight out of college, get married and have kids at 25 and much more. Not meeting these standards and other similar goals can cause us to stress and make us feel inadequate, which can lead to things such as depression, anxiety, and animosity. In this Episode, we cover all things that contribute to affecting our mental health. Malc and myself share our agonizing experiences from living to what "men" are suppose to be in society alongside Stephanies mini-therapy session as she shares with us and our listeners what has been going on with her that causes her stress. Don't think this episode is over or we stopped when the going gets good! Knowing this is an important topic to people of color, we wlll be back next week with Part 2. Make sure yall subscribe and give us a like wherever yall can. Enjoy!

Stereotypes, stereotype, oh stereotypes. You gotta admit though; we try our best to not fall under the stereotypes, but everyone likes fried chicken. *shrug* Episode 3 covers common stereotypes within Black and Latinx communities. Latinas aren’t always dramatic and demonic, all black men aren’t dead beat dads, young students of color don’t have to be set up for failure etc. Tap in to know if we are out here trying to beat the stereotypes, or embracing them with no shame. *PS: WE FORGOT TO MENTION COLORED PEOPLE TIME AND WE ARE ASHAMED* try to be at least 30 minutes late vs 1 hour. Okurrrrttt thanks!

WOW there is NO filter in this episode! We are back and y’all better listen in if you want the tea on who’s getting choked while doing the nasty! 

 

Join us and take notes on interracial dating alongside other relationship topics in the wake of Valentine’s Day (recorded the week of). The Blatino Podcast talks about having a specific “type”, what it’s like being in an interracial relationship, the importance of staying “woke” to your partners societal issues, why dating white people was a fail, fetishizing people of color, men vs women viewpoints, toxic relationships etc. 

 

This episode exposes the struggles of adult relationships after coming out of toxic situations. We all have to admit millennial dating is not an easy task. Its up to us to change the standards, but how can we do that? Riaga, Stephanie, and Malcolm share their own personal experiences and some new insight. Enjoy!
