Is Traditional Dating Dead?

Most say that it has been for quite some time.  What do you think?

Listen on your favorite podcast platform here.  

Duration: 52 minutes.

This is an ever-changing society and if you don't get on the bandwagon then you just might get left behind.  Or worse, maybe even run over.

Dating is no longer for the timid.  Gone are the days when a young man walked across the dance floor to ask a woman if she'd like to dance.  Now you can swipe right on a woman's photo and have something to do this weekend.

What happens to the people who like doing things the old fashioned way?  Do they conform to modern-day standards or do they hold firmly to the values that were instilled in them at one point of their lives?

We'll discuss the downside of traditional dating in a non-traditional society on tonight's Talk 2 Q Radio Show.  "No experts.  Just opinions."

Are Thugs/THOTs Winning (The Dating Game)?

Are you getting frustrated with people of questionable character getting married left and right?

There are so many ladies who are frustrated with women of questionable character getting the guys.  Why are they always left to wait around for the good guys to recognize their worth? 

Likewise, there are guys mad at bad boys having first dibs on quality women.  Why do guys who put forth the least amount of effort being rewarded with quality women?

There's a science to this and my guests and I break it all down on this episode of T2Q!

Duration: 23 minutes.

For years, I had no idea that there was a dinner theater near me.  Now I'm going to introduce some of you to it!  

On this show, I chat with two of the Detectives Comedy Dinner Theater group, Keni Bounds and Eric Riggs.  They travel the southeast to put on murder mystery shows at different restaurants and private events.  I've attended multiple shows and it's always entertaining to have a live performance while you eat at a fine restaurant.  I'll talk to them about how they started this over 10 years ago and what people can expect when they come.

Should We Cancel "Cancel Culture"?

Is it time to rethink "cancel culture" before it divides society even further?

Watch the unedited YouTube Live video here.

Duration: 89 minutes.

Whether you agree or not, these things seem to happen each day.  Celebs, cartoon characters, books and more get scrutinized.  Nothing is above being canceled.

Are you okay with this?  

Singer/actor, Cher, recently said about George Floyd: "...I Kept Thinking …..Maybe If I’d Been There,…I Could’ve Helped."

Sounds like she was sypathizing with the situation.  Or was she?  Some say that she's posturing with the "white angel approach" and that her privilege allows her to think that she could have saved a poor black man's life.  Now this tweet has made its way to CNN and other news outlets.  Cher had to publicly apologize to keep from being canceled.

Cher is just one example of how cancel culture can sneak up on you like COVID.  Should it be that easy to run the risk of being canceled?  A tweet with no malice intent?  Should we ruin someone's livelihood a difference of opinion on politics?  What about something they said 10 years ago?  How about if they're accused (not charged or convicted) of something illegal?  Is it okay to effective take money out of their pockets or forever tarnish their reputation without evidence or a trial?

My Show Legends and I will discuss it all on this episode of the Talk 2 Q Radio Show.  "No experts.  Just opinions."

What Is "Respectful Cheating"?

Is there a such thing as "cheating respectfully"?

Watch on YouTube here.

Listen on Apple Podcasts here.

I just can't stay away from having dope discussions!  I joined Erica Warren and Gator Live on their show to discuss a ridiculous statement some reality TV show lady made about her "situationship".  

Do you think that a person can cheat and still be respectful about how they do it?  Can you creep a certain way and not lose points with your mate?

Also on the show, why are men so gung-ho about giving women relationship advice, but they seem to shy away from giving other men relationship advice?  These relationship coaches out here love to tell women what they should and shouldn't be doing, but have very few words for the men out here.

Dope Discussions with Erica is a great show that can entertain you, make you more aware, and also make you $100 richer!  Yes, you read that right!

What's The Answer To Mass Shootings?

Another mass shooting and nothing is done about it.

Duration: 46 minutes.

Mass shootings continue to happen across the country and the politicians don't have an answer for it.  Or they don't want to have an answer for it.  After all, they receive a lot of money from the NRA come election time.

Would new and more restrictive gun control laws hurt or harm society?  Are more stringent background checks the answer?  Where do we start in solving the problem?

Joining me to discuss this are influencers, Crystal Hickerson and Brandy Singleton.  We will also talk about the Derek Chauvin trial and where we think things are going with it.

Sam Harris is the CEO and co-founder of the social podcasting app, Syncify.fm.  The 30-year old entrepreneur joined me to talk about how technology can stunt our creativity.  Are we not reaching our full potential because we keep scrolling, clicking, and swiping?

Life in the ATL: Real or Fake?

Is Atlanta a wanna-be Hollywood or does it just get a bad rap?

Watch the unedited version on YouTube here.

Listen on your favorite podcast platform here.

This conversation happens quite often, especially with people from the South.  Is the ATL all that it's cracked up to be?

So many people move there to start new careers or small businesses, but so many end up back where they started.  The dating scene is tumultuous because everyone wants to be Jeezy or Cardi B, so there appears to be more of a focus on lifestyle instead of substance.

But that's just what the outsiders think.  What do the people native to the ATL think about how their city is perceived?

Only Fans model, Valesia Rose, rejoins the show to talk about life in the Atlanta, GA area.  I'll pick her brain to see if the myths are true about "Hot 'Lanta".  As a citizen of the area for years now, she can give a perspective of someone who moved there and learned to fit in.

This episode was a YouTube-exclusive video of the conversation that I had with my Year One Show Legends, but I've decided to release it as a podcast episode.  the Talk 2 Q Radio Show celebrated 10 years of existence back in February and I decided to get all of my Show Legends who came aboard in Year One together for a conversation. 

My original podcast cover art from Show #1.

We discussed what the show has meant to all of us over the past decade. We also talked about how it was therapeutic and provided a much-needed stress outlet in so many cases as well as how it formed bonds amongst people scattered across the globe. 

As the show grew, we grew as a family. I can truly say that M&M, Buck, Ray, Crystal, and Amanda are my brothers and sisters. Please enjoy this trip down Memory Lane as T2Q celebrated 10 years with the people who made the show what it is today.
