Facts! Not Emotions!

It's time that we stopped being stuck on stupid.

Duration: 4 minutes.

Social media has given us a platform to have debate after debate.  However, most of these debates are fruitless because one of the arguing members will base their argument on "how they feel" instead of what may have actually happened. 

Why have we allowed emotions to replace facts?  The cable news networks uses plays us against each other because we're too emotional to think about what's actually going on. We also allow our emotions to make irrational decisions that can lead to hurting people unintentionally.

Well, I have something to say about it.

Q-on-1 w/Actor, Ciera Payton

The star of Lifetime's "Wendy Williams: The Movie", Ciera Payton, is my TBT show this week.

Duration: 44 minutes.

(Show # 274 originally aired October 8, 2013).

Ciera Payton joined me to discuss not just her budding acting career at the time, but also the special relationship that she had with her father who was imprisoned.

The New Orleans native talked about overcoming poverty, Hurricane Katrina, and her father being in jail.  All of this while on her journey to being in films and movies.  Her story is an inspirational one as she tells us how her acting career came to be and how she made the most of her oppotunities to grow her career.

When I saw her name pop up on my TV screen for playing the role of Wendy Williams in the talk show host's biopic, I immediately smiled.  The only question that came to mind as I saw her was, "what took Hollywood so long to give Ciera a leading role?"

Take a listen to the interview and I know that you will enjoy and root for her just as much as I do!

What Happened To Responsible Sex?

At one time, sex was portrayed as a beautiful thing in the movies. Not in 2021. 

Duration: 72 minutes.

WATCH on YouTube.

Now it's just something to do. Well, if you're going to do it, then why risk bringing a baby into the world that can't be cared for as it deserves? Why are people too lazy to use some form of birth control?  

The average sexual encounter lasts between three to seven minutes. Is that worth the trouble that comes with it?

• financial struggles from raising a child
• a bad reputation if you're deem as being promiscuous
• the risk of catching a sexually-transmitted disease

We'll discuss that and more on this FB Live edition of T2Q!  I'll be joined by Chrissy, Esha, Queen Cole, and Buck!

Being Bitter Ruins New Relationships

My guest shares my thirst for exposing others to things they probably should know.  We base a lot of our relationship decisions on our experiences, but what happens when our experiences are limited? 

PLAY on YouTube.

Joining me will be Chrissy, the host of Ciphered Knowledge with Chrissy. Chrissy and I discuss her podcast and what inspired her to start. 

But our main topic will be about why some people allow their bitterness to ruin a chance of having a fulfilling relationship.  Is being bitter a form of "emotional baggage"?  By judging people with one broad stroke, are you blinding yourself to a mate who may potentially be your match?

Find out her answers to that and more on this Q-on-1 edition of the Talk 2 Q Radio Show.

Being A Good Person Means Nothing

Duration: 5 minutes.

Okay, the title is strong, but you really need to listen to the episode in order to get the context. It's not a long episode, so it shouldn't take too long for you to get the gist of where I'm going with this. 

I won't spoil it here by summarizing everything, but I will say that a lot of you fall into the category of "being a good person" and you have yet to reap the rewards of your efforts. Some of you may have been taught to act a certain way towards people ever since you were a child and you're still waiting on the pay off. 

Well, I'm going to attempt to free you from that mindset. And I'd appreciate you leaving your feedback in the comments section about how you feel about what I say in this 4 1/2 minute episode of T2Q. Just remember that I'm not an expert. I just have opinions.

The Difference Between A Dude And A Man

Ladies, there is a difference between a "dude" and a "man".  

Duration: 5 minutes. 

I know that some of you ladies get excited when "dudes" are blowing up your inbox, but that usually leads to disappointment.  What you want is a "man" stepping to you in your DM. 

But, how can you tell the difference?  Well, I won't spoil this episode by sharing it in the show notes, so listen for yourself. 

I asked a podcasting peer of mine, Taroy Jackson of The Thoughts Of An Average Joe Podcast to jump on the soap box with me on this one.  He gives his two cents on the situation, so if you don't believe me then maybe you'll believe him.
