Would you choose a trillion dollars over a divine dinner with Jesus? We ponder this provocative question on today's show, taking you on an audacious journey through the realms of relationships, spirituality, sports, and pop culture. We tackle the tough realities of jail survival from a woman's perspective, the delicate balance between maintaining relationships in and out of jail, and dive into the controversial societal views on marriage.
From the tantalizing trance of Drake and SZA’s song “Slime You Out”, to exploring the dance moves of Chris Brown and the world of krumpin, we take a thrilling ride through the world of sports and celebrity gossip. We celebrate the diversity of Black Women, discuss the dangers of 'cosplaying' within the Black community, and honor the remarkable Ciara who has mastered the water challenge while raising five children. Then, we delve deep into the symbolism in 'The Fall of the House of Usher', examining its connections with Mike Flanagan's other work.
Finally, we debate the pros and cons of unconventional date nights and the influence of social media in setting up unrealistic expectations for first dates. We discuss the enjoyment of a range of global travel experiences, and take a stance on the Dwight Howard’s controversy. So, gear up for a roller-coaster of a discussion that questions societal norms, celebrates diversity and challenges conventional wisdom. Let's take the plunge into the unknown together!
