If you are anything like me then the idea of a "one-size-fits-all" interpretation of what a man & a woman should look like in their fullness is very much annoying. Annoying because it's simply not truth, yet it is being advertised as divine order. Okay, great...

Some folks can stomach liver & onions. Me, I'm not a fan. It don't taste good. Not easy to swallow. A lot of the truth works that way. Not sweet to the taste. Difficult to swallow. Rough going down. This episode we are going to take the path of the narrow concerning relationships. Is it them or is it you? Get out your air freshener. Light some candles. Truth about to stink up your whole area, with finesse of course.

In this world of follows it's evident that leadership is necessary. I offer the people my perspective & you know how we do; straight no sugar.

We continue the conversation about relationships, but on this episode we talking about a different set of relationships. This is my first official teaching type of an episode. I'd say it's just a bit more structurally sound than normal but I mean, c'mon now. You know I gotta keep it funky regardless so I'm not straying from that. So strap yourself in and enjoy the episode!

This, sort of, conflict that exists between men & women today concerning the dating world has gotten out of hand. It really is becoming like walking barefoot through a field of porcupines. Neither one of us are listening to each other and we've become the op to one another. Folks are trying to rebrand marriage to be something else; a lot of us are in a place of "why even bother" right? At The Patio, we're right here in the field with you. What we gotta do though is sprinkle our special blend of herbs & spices on the situation. It's time we cut through all the tension and let it bleed out so that we can get down to what's real. Today is Part one... Part two; we'll deal with that another day. So get comfortable; relax & enjoy.

This is a journey into the realm of an epidemic called fatherlessness. We are going to take a different exit ramp on the topic, though, as we tend to do at The Patio. We have to go past the checkpoint of irresponsibility into the deeper layers. An unconventional take, but an honest take.

This is part 2 of the first ever double feature, same day release. We're continuing our conversation about what it is to have faith. Unpopular and maybe uncomfortable for some, be that as it may we are here for it. Enjoy part 2 on us.

Religion means a lot of things to a lot of people. There are said to be 4,000+ different religions in this world today. If you're like me you're thinking, "for what?"

Today we getting into some good trouble...
