1 Man and 1 Woman Talking #Relationships

Stream Buck & Robin any time after Wed., 12/23 @ 10 PM Eastern. 
Why do you think that men and women just don't seem to get along these days?

Stream the show here!

If you missed the controversial "Women Aren't Sweet and Men Don't Protect" show, then you definitely want to listen to the first hour just to get the gist of things. This show was inspired by that one, but with a different approach. There's not really one true topic in this podcast. Just a discussion in which I also get involved to talk about how relationships are more difficult than they have to be these days.

Joining me for this podcast is Show Legend, The Curvy Momager, Robin Peppers-Hunt and the Show Legend in Black, the homie, Buck.

Enjoy this recording as I take tonight off to ramp up for the holidays! Merry Christmas, everyone!

How Do We Bridge Generation Gaps?

Can you converse effectively with someone 20 years older or younger than you?

Stream the show here!
Tue., Dec. 22nd @ 10 PM Eastern. 

Every 15 to 20 years things change.  Society evolves regardless if it's for better or for worse.  However, as a people, not all of us evolve.  Some of us are left in the past without making attempts to understand anything outside of the realm of our generation.

Tonight we will discuss what can be done to bridge the generation gap.  How can we grow older and still get the respect of our younger generation?  How can the younger generation teach "an old dog new tricks?"

We'll discuss that and more on tonight's Talk 2 Q Radio Show!  "No experts.  Just opinions."

Are You Patient in Relationships?

"Fool rush in where angels fear to tread."

Stream the show here!
Wed., Dec. 16th at 10 PM Eastern. 

Some people rush into relationships and get their feelings hurt. Others bail on relationships too quickly and end up missing out on a good thing. Do either apply to you or do you kind of fall in the middle?

To be honest, most of us see ourselves as being balanced, but we're really not. I went from one extreme to the next. I once rushed into relationships simply because I didn't have difficulties being committed. That turned into disappointment more times than not.

Over time things changed. Now that I'm not as trusting of women as I once was, I tend to find reasons to not be in a relationship. I find myself refusing to commit because I'm searching for that "perfect" someone who doesn't exist.

Tonight, I'll bounce some questions off of my Show Legends about what they've experienced in their lives. You can also join the discussion at (347) 202-0215 or on Twitter by using #T2Q.

Does Being Single Make You A Loser?

Is something wrong with you because you don't have a boo?

Stream the show here!
Tue., Dec. 15th at 10 PM Eastern

Single?  Well, don't feel bad.  It happens to the best of us.  However, there are some who despise being single.  Even to the point of remaining in a bad relationship or even getting into a situation that may not be favorable just to say "I'm not single!"  It's crazy to think that people would go through that extent to not appear alone, but it happens.

So, does that mean that being single makes you a loser?  

Does being an over-30 person without a significant other mean that something is wrong with you?  Are you undesirable to others because you don't have someone to call your own?

Q-on-1 w/ @IzzyChurch222

Wed., Dec. 9th @ 10 PM Eastern.  
I have a chat with Izzy Church about her new book!

Stream the podcast here!

I have the opportunity to have a chat with film maker and author, Isabella "Izzy" Church.  I ask her about how she got started in her career in film and how it all translated into a book.  

"Angry Movie Guy."  The title itself is very interesting. This is a romantic comedy that blends witty dialogue, self-hatred, and other similar rom-com features. Just to let my listeners know more about the book, "Angry Movie Guy" is about Charlie Zimmerman, an awkward film reviewer who chooses to become a sensational, verbally-incontinent film critic known as the "Angry Movie Guy" to achieve fame and success.
When his biting review and explosive TV critiques threatens to destroy the career of Alexa, an absent-minded, fiery independent filmmaker whom Charlie has fallen in love with, he must then re-examine his personal life and career. 

Her upcoming book, "Angry Movie Guy" debuts in February 2016 and we discuss the inspiration behind it and more on this special podcast edition of the Talk 2 Q Radio Show!

How Important Is Sleep to You?

You should be asleep right now, huh?

Stream the show here!
Tue., Dec. 8th @ 10 PM Eastern.  

This is something that I take for granted way too often. In fact, I should be asleep now instead of typing this.
Getting rest is essential in our lives, but it's more of a priority to some of us than it is to others. I shun sleep regularly, but now that I'm getting older, it's starting to catch up with me.

I'll get sleepy while driving on long trips. I'll fall asleep while watching a football game. And sometimes, it shows simply because I'm lethargic that day.

Tonight, we'll discuss why rest is important and how we can reclaim the rest a lot of us got when we were in school.

We Have A Textationship

Can you truly get to know someone via text?

Stream the show here!
Wed., Dec. 2nd @ 10 PM Eastern

Welcome to the future of dating. I'm guessing within five years that a date will consist of being on the couch in yoga pants and tweeting about "Empire" together.

Wow. Things have changed so much since the 90's. I remember when you would meet a lady, get her number, actually called her to get to know her, and went out on a date. It doesn't seem that long ago that was the norm.

But like the iPhone 5, things only take a couple of years to be outdated. Today people text, text, and text some more and voice conversations and actual meetings don't always happen quickly (if at all). 

How do we adapt to the ever-changing world of communicating?

Also on the show.  The state of Texas has decided to remove all mentions of slavery from their school text books.  The "Slave Trade" will now be referred to as the "Atlantic Triangular Trade."  Jim Crow and the Ku Klux Klan will no longer appear in Texas school text books.

"White-washing" for the greater good or a bad idea?

Women Aren't Sweet & Men Don't Protect.

Where did society go wrong with us wanting leverage in relationships?

Stream the show here!
Tue., Dec. 1st @ 10 PM Eastern

Where do I start with this one? Ladies first, I guess. I have no idea what happened to the kind, sweet, loving, nurturers that I once knew. A woman could make you feel as if you could jump over the moon and be anything that you wanted to be. It all started with moms who raised their sons to strive for the best. It made boys grow up seeking a woman who inspired them and motivated them.

Fast-forward to 2015 and that rarely exists. Now there are some women who are just jerks. They allow their pride to interfere with happiness and the possibility of being a successful couple.

Guys were once protectors. We didn't just defend our woman. We defended all women. We wouldn't sit back and allow someone's character to be trashed. We would speak out against atrocities against women. It started with fathers who raised their sons to do the right thing (even when no one was looking). It made boys grow up feeling a sense of responsibility towards helping other people. It gave women a sense of security that "this one is going to make everything okay."

Fast-forward to 2015 and that rarely exists. Now guys actually look to victimize women. They allow their ego to interfere with happiness and the possibility of being a successful couple.

Where did we go wrong? When did some women turn into loud-mouth jerks and some men turned into perpetrators instead of protectors?  Why do we refuse to show love for one another just for the sake of not appearing weak in the relationship?

We'll discuss this and more on the Talk 2 Q Radio Show! "No experts. Just opinions."

#Relationship Responsibilies

Should there be defined roles in every relationship?

Stream the show here!
Wed., Nov. 18th @ 10 PM Eastern

It is very uncommon to have a show like this without people losing their minds. For some reason, it's so difficult, especially for certain ethnic groups, to discuss roles in a relationship. It always turns into a "what he isn't doing" or "what she isn't doing."

Well, tonight, we'll try it again and we'll see if we can come to any logical conclusions to the topic. Does a man belong outside cleaning the yard? Does a woman belong inside cleaning the house? Should a man be firm? Should a woman be soft?

Countless times we've heard of soldiers returning from overseas and being forgotten.  Despite their sacrifices to protect the freedoms of this country, they are rarely appreciated.  Even with veterans in political office, there is still not a lot being done to help returning soldiers get acclimated to being home again.

What can we do to help?

Also on tonight's show, does it matter how many kids you have if you can afford them?  If you're a baller athlete or celebrity then does it matter that you have kids all over if you're paying support?

In #Relationships, How Soon Do You...

How soon do you disclose certain personal things about yourself to your new boo?

Stream the show here!
Tue., Nov. 10th @ 10 PM Eastern

There are a lot of big milestones to surpass in your average relationship, but the little ones are the ones that are the most important. You have to be able to get past them in order for the relationship to even occur. The question is: timing.

At some point you may have to reveal something about yourself that could send your potential mate running for the hills. Especially if you're older and have some "dating mileage" on you.

Tonight on T2Q, we'll ask the question, "How soon do you?" when it comes to certain relationship items such as:

- How soon do you tell a person how many kids you have?

- How soon do you tell someone you don't have a car?

- How soon do you tell someone that you have an STD?

All important questions when it comes to getting to know someone. Do you tell them on Date One or Date Five? That's what we're breaking down on this edition of the Talk 2 Q Radio Show! "No experts. Just opinions."

This is a tough question for quite a few people out there. He/she is good to you in every way, but they just can't satisfy you in the bedroom. No matter what you try it always seems to leave you feeling unfulfilled.

Maybe they lack the experience. Maybe they're just not physically capable.

How to Complain Effectively

Is it easier to catch flies with honey or vinegar?

Stream the show here!
Tue., 11/3 @ 10 PM ET

I have nothing against complaining, but there's an art to it. Some people are really good at it while others suck. You can't effectively complain if you're annoying.

In my opinion, complaining only works if you can get the other person to respond to what you're saying. Asking questions that force them to show their incompetence by answering usually does the trick! You have to establish guilt in order to have something done about it. Making them hate you isn't going to amount to anything being done to resolve your issue.

Should Marriage Traditions Continue to Evolve?

Are marriage traditions changing for the better or for the worse?

Stream the show here!
Tue., Oct. 13th @ 10 PM Eastern

Some would argue that they've already changed, but tonight we'll try to determine what's still important to people and what's not.

My parents were born in the 40's, so they were very deeply rooted in to the old school tradition of marriage. My mom cooked and cleaned. My dad handled vehicle maintenance and yard work.

Those are the basics and those roles have changed tremendously over the past 50 years. But what about some of the more subtle things:

- Should a woman still take her husband's last name?
- Are prenuptial agreements not just for rich people any more?
- Is marriage a business partnership or an experience of love?

Nothing like take out food and a movie to get to know each other on Date One, right? Wrong. If this is your idea of a date with someone you're not in a relationship with then you need a hug. However, the Millennials firmly believe that this is an acceptable form of dating.

Why do you think that is? Is it because it's dirt cheap? Is it because it puts her just a few yards from his bedroom? What does one even wear for a Netflix & Chill date? Let's call it what it is: a booty call with a movie playing in the background.

That's something that people have been taught throughout history.  If you want to avoid being perceived as a certain type of person then avoid hanging around those type of people.  However, I'm not sure how true that is so I'm going to bounce some questions off of my Show Legends tonight to determine if it's real or not.

  • Does hanging with someone who is promiscuous make you a hoe/dog?
  • Does having a known thief as a friend mean that you're likely to steal yourself?

The Importance of Being #Sexy


Stream the show here!

How much does a person's look/attitude play a role in a successful relationship?

Relationships are comprised of so many things.  There's really not one quality that makes for a good relationship more than another.  Attraction is a key component in relationships.  If you're not attracted to the person then there's hardly a chance at a long-term future with that person.  It doesn't mean that they have to be sexy to everyone.  Just sexy to you.

Having said that, how important is "being sexy" to you?  Do you feel as if you should feel sexy most or all of the time or just in certain scenarios?  How often should a potential other do it?  Are you okay with lounging clothes during the week as long as they dress up on the weekend?  Or do you need that constant stimulation?  How much does attitude play a role in it?

All of these things, Zone Coverage and more on the Talk 2 Q Radio Show!  "No experts.  Just opinions."

Parents Are Why Most Kids Suck At Sports

Stream the show!
Tue., Sept. 8th at 10 PM EDT

If you're a parent who lets your child participate in year-around organized athletics then I need you to listen to this show.  You could be ruining your child's life in more ways than you could ever realize.

We all know that there's a difference between "organic" and "manufactured."  Society has manufactured food products for us and it's documented that it can make us sick.  Mainly because there's very little "natural" about it.  There's a long term effect on some who eat manufactured foods too regularly.

The same concept applies to child athletes: if they aren't organically created then they run the risk of suffering from side effects of being manufactured.  There's a reason why some rich parents can pay for the best equipment and best coaches for their child and that kid still can't beat an inner city kid that's never been professionally coached if they played in a pick-up game of basketball.

Tonight we will discuss how important it is to give your kid a balance of both worlds.  Don't be the reason your child turns 18 and his/her athletic career is over before it's started.  This and more on the Talk 2 Q Radio Show!  "No experts.  Just opinions."

On this special 2-on-1 podcast of the Talk 2 Q Radio Show (and yes, I meant "2" instead of "Q"), I will chat with psychic, Tanya of www.Soul2SoulConversations.com.

She joins me from L.A. to discuss a few things about the life of a gifted individual. Although I told her that I was very skeptical of people who claim to have the "3rd Eye," I very much enjoyed interviewing her and learning about what she does. 

To help me out with this topic in which I'm very unfamiliar I brought on talk show hostess and Show Legend, Crystal Hickerson of The Crystal Show, to assist me with the interview.

Listen and enjoy the podcast as I awaken the spirits of conversation on another T2Q podcast!

Are Dudes Only "Thirsty" if Women Aren't Attracted to Them?

Stream the show here!

Wed., Sep. 2nd at 10 PM ET

The short answer: absolutely! At least most guys who get called "thirsty" think so. :) We've seen so many terms that describes situations get thrown around on social media. "Girl, that one dude inboxed me again. He's so 'thirsty'!"

What does "thirsty" mean in slang terms? "Too eager to get something" according to UrbanDictionary.com. But is the person truly "thirsty" or do you just not want the attention from him? If (insert celebrity guy here) inboxed you, would he also be dismissed for being "too eager" to get with you?

Absolutely not. However, there are tons of double standards when it comes to relationships and we will discuss some of them tonight on the Talk 2 Q Radio Show! "No experts. Just opinions." 

Afterwards, we'll get into some Zone Coverage and talk a little sports!

Your Mouth Makes You Ugly, Part II

Stream the show here!

Tue., Sep. 1st at 10 PM ET

This topic was discussed on July 22nd, but in the middle of the show, something happened. So, we were unable to finish the discussion and I decided to save it for later. Well, later has arrived and it's time to finish what I started! The second part of "Your Mouth Makes You Ugly" will conclude tonight! 

There's nothing more irritating than someone who can't control their mouth. Whether it's a nasty attitude, taking opportunities to hate on someone, or just plain being disrespectful, it makes you just want blow a gasket. Why is it that some people don't realize that their mouth makes them ugly?

The things some people say have consequences yet they don't realize it. Or they realize it and just don't care. An uncontrolled mouth can cost a person their job, their mate, their friends/family, and a hospital bill if they pop off to the "wrong one."

Why do we allow ourselves to get emotional to the point of stupidity and regret? Society also promotes having your tongue throw you in jail with reality TV and YouTube videos of mindless confrontations.

Tonight, the Show Legends and I will talk about how the tongue is the strongest muscle in the body. All on the Talk 2 Q Radio Show! "No experts. Just opinions."

How Do You Celebrate Birthdays?

Stream the show here!

Wed., Aug. 26th at 10 PM ET

Ah, birthday celebrations!  The one time per year that you can make things all about you coming into the world.  The one time per year that the focus is solely on you and no one else.  Everyone loves a good birthday party, right?

Well, not everyone.  I don't make a big deal out of my birthday.  I live each day as if it's my birthday, so although I'm appreciative of seeing another year, a celebration really isn't all that necessary.  But I don't hate on those who with to "turn up" on theirs.  At least not until it crosses the line from a birthday celebration to narcissism.
  
On tonight's show, we'll discuss how we celebrate birthdays.  What do you do when you share a birthday with someone close?  What do you do when your birthday is near a gift-giving holiday?  What do you do when your birthday falls on the same day as an important event?

I Cheated to Save Our Marriage!

Stream the show here!

Tue., Aug. 25th at 10 PM ET

You've been married for 8 years.  You have a 6 year old son and a 2 year old daughter.  You would do anything to protect your wife and kids.  However, your wife hasn't been the same since she had your son.  The intimacy is gone and the sex is not passionate.  You've talked to her, but to no avail.  She appears to have lost her drive for sex.

You're forced to make a decision: do I stay in a passion-less marriage or do I divorce my wife and essentially walk away from my kids?

What if I told you that there's a 3rd option?  Well, according to a FB friend of mine, cheating saved his marriage. He decided to get his sex outside of the home and that satisfied him enough to where he didn't divorce his wife and leave the kids.

He claims that cheating saved his marriage.  Had he not gotten sex somewhere else then he would have divorce his wife.  Can cheating save marriages?

Q-on-1 with @IAmJayMayo

Stream the show here!

On this podcast, I go Q-on-1 with the owner of the Right to Real Love Podcast, Jay Mayo! He joins me to discuss "How to Build A Man." A man is comprised of six parts: he has to be a visionary, leader, teacher, cultivator, provider, and protector. Why is there not a focus on turning boys into men these days?

Is it due to distractions like cars, clothes, and easy access to sex? Is it a lack of interest in being a parent? What exactly is it?

Jay gives his two cents on what the solution is to the figure out how we can refocus our communities on raising our sons. That insight and more on this special podcast edition of the Talk 2 Q Radio Show! "No experts. Just opinions."

Q-on-1: The Return of Thundercat!

Tues., August 11th @ 12 PM EDT
Stream the show here

A couple of weeks ago, I played a clip of my candid discussion with one of the first guests that I ever had on the show. I call it a discussion because it wasn't much of an interview. It was basically me talking and her doing her usual comedic thing.

I called up Falen J, AKA Thundercat, down in Houston. Falen and another guest were the first people I ever spoke to on my show all the way back on Episode 2. It had been so long since I'd really been in touch with her and she was nice enough to record this podcast with me right before Show #500.

So, I called Falen up via Skype and video-conferenced our discussion. Although you cannot see us, you will still crack up at her being her usual crazy and uncensored self. There will be more of Falen to come later in the year, but here's a taste of her now in my complete and unedited discussion with her.

She's back for more cash! My favorite Florida hot girl, Ms. Manhood, returns to T2Q to discuss what? Men who just aren't getting it done, that's what! She will also bring her friends along for the ride with her as they enjoy Happy Hour mixed with a splash of my Show Legends.

We will discuss the following and more:
  • The "hoes before bros" mentality. 
  • Why women love b*tches. 
  •  Married men and the need for "fluffers."

What If Your Significant Other Is "Wack"?

Stream the show here!
Tuesday, August 4th at 10 PM EDT

What do you do when your mate humiliates you? I don't mean intentionally. I mean from just being lame. He/She wants to be one of the cool kids, but just isn't. For example, think about how Nicki Minaj feels right now. She's at the top of her game. No other woman is competing with her in the game of rap. Her man, Meek Mill, got owned by Drake in a battle rap. Now her man is the subject of hundreds of humiliating memes circling the web.
 
How do you handle when your mate is Meek Mill? Do you try to uplift and support them? Do you bail on the relationship because you can't stand to deal with your friends making fun of you?

I'll ask my Show Legends what a person should do when your mate makes you face palm more than smile.

Q-on-1 with @DateCoachChante

Stream the show here!
Mon., Aug. 3rd @ 12 PM EDT

On this Q-on-1 podcast, I sit down and chat with dating and relationship coach, Chanté about making love a priority.  A lot of us will work hard to achieve raises and promotions on a job, but we sit around and wait on love.  Why are we a go-getter for one yet we expect the other to fall in our laps?

Chanté wrote a blog post on her website entitled "Why Do We Treat Love Differently?"  It touched on how people approach love differently than they do everything else in life worth achieving.  One of the quotes from the post that really resonted with the readers was, "No matter what you are doing in life, great things require you to take action to get the desired result." 

We'll talk about having a dating strategy when it comes to dating and how she can assist with perfecting that strategy.  Find out how Chanté has become one of my favorite people in just under a year of knowing her!  This and more on the Talk 2 Q Radio Show!

Q-on-1 with Zabre Nicholas

Buy the book on Amazon.
Stream the show here!

On this special Q-on-1 podcast edition of T2Q, I have a chat with the author of the book, "Haven of Mercy," Zabre Nicholas. We discuss some of her inspiration to write the book as well as some potential future plans for the "Haven of Mercy" storyline.

Here's a description of "Haven of Mercy," available on Amazon: 

This book is an intriguing and adventurous timeline based on factual events and people from an everyday around the way girl. As her life started to spiral out of control, the main character, Zee, realized that she had much to lose but more to gain if she could just get her life back on track. 

After multiple episodes of love gone wrong, financial losses and dead end decisions, living her life without the acceptance or approval of others became her own definition of success. Right or wrong she decided to do what it took as long as she remained true to herself. The chapters of her life are honest and detailed enough to keep you engaged but wanting more in the end.

The Sandra Bland Incident, Session Two


Stream the show here

The Sandra Bland incident has garnered so much attention over the past week or so that I decided to reach out to some ladies. I wanted to get their opinions as women who now live in a world where they no longer get the respect/protection they once received.

I broke this show down into two categories: I wanted to get the ladies' perspectives on how/if Sandra Bland could have handled things differently. I also wanted to see what they felt the arresting office could have done differently to de-escalate the situation if at all possible.

I'm joined by Lady T from New Orleans and first-timer, GiGi' from South Carolina.

#T2Q Hits Show Number 500!

Stream the show here!

It's hard to believe that after 4 years, 5 months, and 9 days that I've reached episode #500! What started off as a 10 minute rant on relationships in episode 1 has turned into my own personal legacy.

For the 500th time, I will reach out to the world and mix it up with some of the most intelligent and entertaining callers in talk show history.

I have been banging my head against the wall trying to figure out "how in the world can I celebrate Show No. 500?" It's so much trouble trying to reach out to have guests from the past call, so I decided against that. I'm sure that those who still follow the show and have the time will call to say "hello," I decided to do something different.

Tonight, my Show Legends and I will play T2Q Trivia! Not only will they get questions about the history of the show, but they will also answer questions about certain events and pop culture happenings. I'll be giving away T2Q paraphanalia to boot as #500 is finally here!
