  • This week we're back and we've just returned from some great trips. Kiki was on a relaxing trip to St. Lucia, where she soaked up the sun, hiked the Pitons (well, partially), and experienced the local culture at the Friday night street party in Gros Islet. It was the perfect getaway to disconnect and enjoy the beauty of the Caribbean.
    Medinah, on the other hand, had a wild adventure in Brazil. From her hilarious attempt to get a Brazilian wax in Brazil to her eye-opening visit to a favela, she shares the raw and real experiences that made her trip unforgettable. She even got to witness the grandeur of Carnival and learned about the deep African roots in Brazilian culture.
    We also touch on the importance of group travel and how it can lead to unexpected friendships and personal growth. Plus, we give a shoutout to our Patreon community and encourage you to join us for exclusive content and live chats.
    Lastly, we share some fun activities to do in Atlanta, like the First Fridays at the High Museum and a DJ mixing class called Scratch Out Loud. And of course, we can't forget to mention our lifesaver, Lume, which kept us fresh throughout our travels and everyday life, and Viia Hemp for keeping us zen.
    That's all for this episode. Make sure to tune in, join our Patreon, and check out our sponsors. Until next time, keep the discussions dirty and the cocktails strong. Cheers!

    Capoeira was invented by slaves to disguise self-defense practice as dance! Medinah, yes there’s so much interesting black culture in Latin America. More slaves were sent there than the US and slavery lasted longer there. Almost half of all slaves in the Trans-Atlantic slave trade were sent to Brazil! They just don’t look like we do because the native and African people had families together. They mixed races earlier in history. This is what I studied in college so I love that it came up

    I have to agree with you all regarding the divorce attorney . Medinah asked all the right questions, and Kiki hit the nail on the head. She was absolutely talking in circles and didn’t give direct answers . Maybe it was because every situation is different, but I feel like it was mainly because she didn’t want to give free advice 😂 my personal opinion though.

    Facebook dating is like every other dating site.
    The issue with Who TF Did I Marry happened because instead of her paying attention to red flags that were obvious to her earlier in the relationship, she decided to ignore them because she wanted to be married.

    That grown man should have just said he would appreciate being taken on a date but I guess it she was smart she would have just read between the lines and planned something if she was down. And if she wasn’t..to just let him know she sees him and it don’t work for her
