Venting and Vino Podcast

Thanks to Michael Brooks from 2 Dope Boys and a Podcast for joining us this week. Tionni gets a new nickname. Ben Carson doesn't know much about slaves or immigrants, Trump accuses Obama of wiretapping and he's unbothered, plus Georgette gets to defend herself about the kinky role play "reasons why we drink" topic last week when she was at Trinidad Carnival.

A lot happened this week. Georgette was away at Trinidad Carnival so recurring guest, Davis Northern joined the gals to take her place as a guest co-host. Nicole recaps her trip to Thailand. A lot of P's were happening. They discussed what they deemed as best and worst moments of the Oscars including envelope-gate, and they blamed Georgette for leaving them with this week's "reasons why we drink" conversation.

With Nicky on vacation, Tiffany joined us as our guest co-host this week and the funny shenanigans were even more heightened. Although it's two years old, we had some things to say about Jasmine Mans' "Footnotes for Kanye" poem, Obama being named as one of the top best Presidents (obvi), and Drake's interview on OVO Sound radio with DJ Semtex. We also touched on dealbreakers and turn offs. Tiffany isn't messing with you if you don't have a passport. Word.

Nicky's boyfriend, Manny Avila, joins us as our special guest for this week's Valentine's Day themed episode and boy are they two peas in a pod. We couldn't get over how black the performances were at the #grammys. Yes lawd (and Chance the Rapper). Adele breaks her award in half to share Album of the Year with Beyonce. Carlos Santana didn't mince words and the #Beyhive came for him. Plus we get into our throwback Valentine's Day horror stories and if we could or would date a friend. Hugs and kisses. oxo

This week, we're joined by one of our favorite special guests and Nicky's best friend, director/cinematographer Davis Northern. We acknowledge the fact that Beyonce's having twins and are happy for her especially Tionni. Nicky goes off about Latinx not being a thing. We delve into more "politics than usual" (Jay Z voice), discussing Betsy Devos and Jeff Sessions, and then take it there during our reasons why we drink segment and give lessons on sending nudes.

Swinging back into the new year and Black History Month, Tionni, Nicole, and Georgette hit us with their usual uncensored antics including the ridiculousness of Drumpf's #MuslimBan, the politically charged speeches at the Screen Actor's Guild (SAG) Awards, and a petition to see Migos perform at the Super Bowl instead of Lady Gaga. Could a Bad & Boujee Super Bowl be a thing? Georgette thinks so plus Tionni finally becomes Facebook official. THEY'RE BACK!

We end the year with a bang and even more shenanigans as our final guest for the year, Matthew Butler, joins us to discuss the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees, privacy concerns behind tech doll, "My Friend Cayla", our 2016 picks for favorite TV shows and artists, and how we ladies prefer our chivalry. Plus Tionni and Nicole won't stop singing that damn NSYNC Christmas song. Happy holidays to you and yours. See you in January! oxo

The interwebs had yet another field day or week rather. Twitter wasn't feeling Kanye's meeting with Trump, Zoe Saldana and her sisters received serious backlash when a picture revealed they're all married to white men, Hillary Duff can't catch a break, and we have a thing for elderly folks who give no fucks.

It's all about the Rs today. Tionni tries to remain mum about her private life, Nicole gets straight to the point on how to face Rejection, and Georgette finally R.I.P.s using the term Rendezvous to describe new love interests. Oh and she may have a hookup on getting to Trinidad Carnival 2017. Bacchanal time!

This episode welcomes our first guest, director, cinematographer, and producer, Davis Northern. What a brave soul to join us as we finally pour it up, pour it up to discuss more Kanye, the voting recount by Green Party candidate, Jill Stein, AND the season finale of HBO's Insecure that almost took us out. SPOILER ALERT episode if you haven't watched all of Insecure.
