Ugly Truth Pretty Lies Podcast

In this episode we set out to see what we've learned since the sex seal was broke years ago and realized that its so many paths we take to gain experience, find our place, and understand what turns us on. We discuss the stigmas, taboos, ramifications, and stereotypes that surround sex.

In this episode we tackle for the first time but surely not the last, the never ending issue of how to "co-parent".  

In this "live" episode we tackle a deep subject. The disconnect between Black Men and Black women; Is it really a "thing"? Couldn't be an inherited mentality from our forefathers/mothers, lack of accountability, ownership on both parts, the woman not knowing "her place", the man "losing his place", or simply that old saying "it's the White mans fault".

This episode was centered around harassment which took us on an interesting twist of how so many issues are intertwined into harassment... sexually charged environments, attraction, rape, stalking, aggression, and so many other topic.

Our return podcast with Kwak, JustEn, Tie, and Cassie. We worked out the kinks a lil bit talking about our podcast desires and then went into the full convo of perception.

This Episode is long but filled with laughs and information.  Kwak, Yogi, Ava, Courtney, Roshawn, Sean, and Marlea discuss "Social Media Love", and How others go about starting such relationships, sliding into inboxes, and lot more.  Once the alcohol kicks in things get hilarious. Plus we get a few call in guest also.  Check it the audio here and also check for the youtube page as well where you can see the video footage! NSFW at all!!

On this episode Kwaku speaks for all the men of the world (lol) about the genesis of the hurt cycle that many women feel from men in relationships.  Jerika and Ava cross examine Kwak and get some pretty insightful answers.  And we also find out that women are apparently going to Plenty of Fish Dating App to find these "damaged" men!  

This episode is the first installment of a weekly wrap up segment we will be doing from now on.  This week, Kwak, Ava London, and later on Jerika, talk about Chance The Rapper's meeting with the governor of Illinois to discuss education, the picture of the young woman JessHillarious (naked with her son on her lap smh) that had everyone talking, and of course we talk about Ms. Remy Ma's diss to Nicki Minaj.  

This is a slightly inebriated version/continuation of EP013's Mid Life Crisis conversation. We cover a lot of topics from Tinder, Kanye's influence on men's clothing, Valentines Day Hate, Beyoncé and her hive and a lot more.. oral sex talk lol. Funny stuff! 

This episode covers the phenomenon know as the "Mid Life Crisis". Late thirties and and Black... yes... this episode is about you! We have a little fun with this otherwise serious topic and somehow we get to oral sex SMH. Either way its a pretty good convo. Stay tuned for part two. 

This Episode covers the new Trump Regime/Administration. Feelings on Steve Harvey and others meeting with the Trump. How racism is a part of the administration, How we view some of is first actions, Chrissiette Michelle's right to, some thoughts on the Women’s March, Fake news phenomenon, and more. This is part 1 of this conversation. Stay tuned for more. 

No intro here... straight to the convo! This episode covers our views on some all to commonly used catch fire words like "Coon" and "Nigga".  This is actually part of a larger upcoming conversation regarding Trump and his regime... errrr I mean administration.  Listen to Kwak, Ava London, Justin, Kat, and Nick tackle this subject and check for the follow up episode. I'm sure you "Terms of Endearments" will enjoy it! 

Quick episode with some of my stories from the past that involved what else...  race relations ( I swear it seem like thats all I talk about

With Kwak, Dante (G Sinister) and Ava London we take a moment to go over the Pro's and Con's / Do's and Dont's of social media.  From a "Late 30's" perspective that is. Also we touch on some Social Media "beefs" that have taken place recently. And also we take a moment to speak on a more personal incident that took place partially on Facebook in the Chicago Area, eventually leading to someones death. Needless to say this is a sensitive subject so forgive us for only dealing with the social media aspect of this matter and being somewhat hesitant to go all the way into it. That being said... we use that moment as an example of how social media can be used in a negative light.

This Episode was a party! Drinks, Music, Good People, Good Conversation. Kwak,  Yogi, G Sinister, and Ava London speak on Umar Johnson and his recent altercations with social media, views on black leadership, Polygamy, Infidelity, some loose talk on religion, depictions of blacks in media/movies, black history, and black on black violence.  

This is the last installment of this Relationship conversation that took place. This episode covers Black women "doing better" than black men, the cost of dating, what is considered a good date, what men expect from a date, when is the right time to have sex, the consequences of having sex, what are women looking for, the benefits of Marriage, what men are doing wrong, why men tell lies, and open marriage situations. Yeah... That much in an hour! 

This episode takes on the issue of being single and middle aged with all the baggage you've accumulatted over the years of dating and failed relationships.  It's a lot! How to show interest, Expectations, Commitment issues, How long before you get married, What women are looking for, Dating after failed Marriage, Polyamorous Relationships (lol), sexual identity issues, STD's, affects on children and more. I have my sister (Kat) in on the shenanigans bringing in more of her Far Left views along with Adrian giving us his experience, while Ms. London gives her point of view. 

Its 2017 and time to get this podcast ball back rolling. Been working on some sound issues (that Im still working on although its getting better) and scheduling issues as well.  Im learning though!  Here is a quick episode just to warm up before a few more episodes drop this week. It's actually an excerpt of a larger convo that was had. Me (Kwak), My guy Adrian, Ava London, and my "Far Left" Sister cover the topics related to what is called Rape Culture these days.  We cover some real stories that we probably shouldn't be covering on this platform but wtf... This is the Ugly Truth and Pretty Lies podcast... what do you expect!?
