The crew is back with Season 2! After an extended summer break off, Mini, Princess and Elmer tackle the issue of immigration, how and why people tend to be opposed to it, and how it shapes the world we live in today. Each of them give their unique perspectives on how immigration can be good and bad based off of personal experience, and the best ways to assimilate in a foreign land. 

We’re Back!!!!

 After a brief hiatus, the crew are back and again joined by Gerald Clark to discuss The Guy’s Playbook. Princess queries the guys on their experiences with women and whether a woman’s body count matters. She then dives into deep waters when she asks if sex on the first date devalues a woman in a man’s eyes. 

 They close up by briefly touching on Simone Biles and her decision to temporarily step away from Olympic competition due to her mental health.

Double Episode Drop!!!

We went on a brief hiatus, but the crew is back!! Joined by Joyce Kenpen, they dive into the reasons why we find black sisters tearing each other down more often than building each other up. Is it envy, jealousy, fear of the unknown or something else? The answers they arrive at will be revealing.

We emerge from the discussion agreeing on one thing: all black women should be their black sister's keeper.

Double Episode Drop!!!

We went on a brief hiatus, but the crew is back!! In this episode, Mini, Elmer and Princess are joined by Ahmad Kazzaz to dive into the recent controversy around transgender athletes. They build on that conversation to tackle the bigger issue of how feasible an "all inclusive society" is, and whether we are in the middle of an era of "excessive wokeness".

Before closing, the crew delicately plunge into a round table about the Me Too Movement, and how both men and women need to treat each other with the decency we all deserve.

You do not want to miss out on this compelling conversation!!

On this week's episode, the crew dive into the topic of colorism. They discuss its origins and why it can be extremely divisive.  The crew also touch on why we need to be tolerant of personal choice and preference when it comes to affiliations and associations, and how that should not be misconstrued for colorism or prejudice.

They close up the pod by touching on the Kwame Brown vs Everybody beef, and why some of his inflammatory comments may hint towards reverse colorism existing between black and lighter skinned men.

This was a must listen and enlightening conversation as always, you won't want to miss it!!

Mini, Elmer and Princess tackle the topic of surrogacy this week. What is it? What are the types? They deep dive into this contentious topic, dealing with it from different angles, the stigma surrounding it in the African community, and how surrogacy can be an option not only for women, but single men as well.

The discussion then takes a left turn into how people make decisions around who their sexual partners are and who to procreate with, and how both men and women have to make better decisions around who their sexual partners are.

This was a captivating discussion, you won't want to miss out!

This week Mini, Elmer and Princess are joined by Margaret Fahnbulleh to discuss physical appearance and dating. The origin of the topic stems from what some would say are controversial comments by content creator Kevin Samuels, touching on a direct relationship between overweight women and women who do not end up getting married.

The crew and guest go into a more nuanced conversation about dating and share a consensus that looks may get you through the door with someone, but it is surely not the end all be all for lasting relationships.

This was a riveting and, as always, enlightening conversation...

This week the crew had Andia Varba on to jump into a discussion about a video of Lizzo twerking while being sprayed with champagne by several guys.  Andia sees it as a bad look for women. They all go into a broader discussion about the virtue of the modern woman, and how the current social climate has blurred the lines around what is societally acceptable when it comes to women. The crew take different sides of the discussion, and the sides each of them fall on might surprise you.

The crew then chime in on resurfaced comments made back in 2010 by Steve Harvey, where he emphatically says that 99.9% of men are incapable of having platonic friendships with women, without the expectation of wanting something more...
