    In this episode we welcome back "Cameo w/ Mo" and we welcome Vee's daughter Jaden (you hear about Jaden almost every episode). We talk about complexion and the lack of representation in the industry and in society of black women of the darker hue. Where did this topic come from... Jaden. Jaden speaks so passionately about this issue. We also discussed stereotypes when it comes to "black" tv. Why is it that dark skin black women always play a hard struggling role? Why do we always have to be on the come up? Mo explains that growing up as the only black in her school she was always reminded that she was dark. She was always told that she was pretty for a dark skin girl. She said she didn't feel like it was discrimination but it's definitely levels to skin complexion. Colorism is real and we as blacks do more judging amongst ourselves than anyone else. How do we change this? We can change this by having conversations like this. Thanks, ladies!

    This week's episode we talk about episode we discuss Alicia Keys son getting his nails painted and Porsha Williams on Real HouseWives of ATL. See we as humans tend to feed off of other people's misery and we also tend to judge without putting ourselves in the other person's shoes. AD says it all the time, being straight or gay or any other alphabet is stricktly about sexual preferrence. The verb, the action of sex. We are all humans first. Alicia Keys felt the need to protect her son from judgment of the outside world. The boy wanted rainbow nails. We as adults tend to push what is acceptable for girls and boys onto kids. Listen in as Vee talks about how she is guilty of this very action when it came to her son. SKIP TO 6:26 “ I can honestly say im guilty of it until my son Thomas schooled me. So for a while his favorite was My Little Pony . Thomas : “ I want to watch my little pony!!? Vee : “ My Little Pony?! That's for girls! - Thomas : (confused ) … gGiirLLSS?!?! Its for girls ? But there's a boy pony right there !!! Vee : “ touche son , touche “ Let's think about it people he is a kid. He likes colors but AD makes a great point. Make sure you listen in to see how AD puts the situation in its place. SKIP TO 14:08 “So while you're upset alicia just take a moment to realize where he's getting this thought process from and who's going to be upset with him or feel funny about him … so if yourself to preach to the world about everyone trying to judge your son , watch the people around you. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/apan/message

    Welp, we went to the hood... Adult-hood and it kicked our butts this week. This is the reason why today's episode went up at 10 PM and not 11 AM. P.S. Judge yo MAMA! We don't want to grow up because we're still childish as hell!! If you ask anyone what makes them an adult and what makes them grown I bet they will start to list all of their responsibilities. Is there a difference between being an adult and being grown? Vee opens up about her current struggle with "Adulting". AD is over adulting. You can catch her back in childhood on Sesame Street with her boo Oscar the Grouch. Thanks for rocking with us family!

    As children, we all went through that stage where your parents would make you dance for all of the grown folks and sometimes you would even get money. Now as an adult listening back to some of these songs I realize that the lyrics went straight over our heads. Listen in as we discuss some of the most provocative songs of our time and the meanings. We also learned of some hidden gems/meaning to a couple of songs. LISTEN, LAUGH, LOVE! Special shoutout to Fireworks Co-working Space for the amazing Podcast Studio!

    I first want to thank everyone for their kind words, love, and support as we journey through the loss of my brother. ~ Vee You all loved the last five episodes and we received a lot of feedback and questions so we are going to continue the conversation. In Ep.021 & 22 Interracial Duo ft. Jake and Ashley Vicious we discussed raising children. Jake is obviously an amazing human being and is going to be an amazing father. How do you raise a black boy to be a black man and is this something that a white man can do? Leave us a voice mail on Anchor and let us know what you think. We as black people have become extremely aware of the climate in the USA. What is the difference between being "woke" and too damn sensitive? Ep.023 - Ep.25 Black, Married & Happy - How long do you wait for someone to see the potential that you see in them and then for them to live in their potential. Mo Betta was not playing any games he said that he would never be with anyone that drinks alcohol? What will make you leave a marriage? For AD it's finding out that your significant other is a rapist and for Vee its if she finds out if her significant other is a child molester or watched child porn. We want to hear your answers so please leave us a message on Anchor.

    This 3 part episode was full of emotion. We laughed, and we cried. Everyone opened up about things not discussed outside of significant others. Things that we only keep to ourselves, alone in a dark room. LOL Not only did AD and I ask questions, but the fam also got in on asking questions to each other. It was a great cousin's night out. This episode also holds a weird but special place in my (Vee) heart. I'm going to tell you a little story about how the people in your life aren't there by accident but by design. Three years ago, we (my husband and I) received an invite to the Forever Duncan wedding. October 1st of 2016, and unfortunately, but also, fortunately, we didn't attend. See, my brother was turning 45 and was having a party in WV. I didn't know it at the time, but this would be his last birthday that we spent together. The day that we recorded this episode, I received a call from my brother's wife stating that he had died in a car accident. The was July 5th, 2019. Why is any of this so significant? 10/1 = Sherrell & Black's (Alfred) Duncan's anniversary 10/1 = My brother Freddie's birthday 7/5 = Interview with Sherrell & Black for this episode 7/5 = The day my brother died in a car accident. Not to mention the whole episode, I was staring at Mo, thinking how much he looks like my brother. Then the call comes in, and I am absent for the remainder of the episode. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! You all don't know how much we appreciate this growing family. Your support means the world to us. Listen, Laugh, Love!

    The level of comfort that people feel with us is such a blessing. It is the best thing about APAN, and we want to thank every one of our family members (you are not a guest on our show you are family) for feeling safe enough to talk about things that they wouldn't normally talk about. We also want to thank you for allowing us to feel safe enough to have the conversation and to ask those questions and to laugh with you. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS!! Pt.2 with the Duncan's and the McClanaha's. We get a little more serious touching on being venerable with your partner. Black and Sherelle get into a disagreement on the show. Sherelle won but we could be bias. Listen in and tell us who you think won. Black love isn't just about being in an intimate relationship it's about being there for your brother and sister crying for them and with them when they are happy and when they are sad. We wanted to know why is it so important to label our love as "Black Love". SKIP TO 7:57 "It's important for young men to know it is ok to be emotionally available to a young woman, to be open and honest with her and that doesn't make you soft, it doesn't make you any less of a man, it makes you more of a man." ~ Adrian BLACK MEN DON'T CHEAT... This has two meanings. Black schools us on the double meaning behind this movement! Monogamy!!! Oh lord! HERE WE GO!!!! Do we believe in it? Is this still a thing? Vee says somethings that will raise some eyebrows and have people wondering what's going on. HAHAHA Shhhhhh, what happens on the internet stays on the internet. Again we thank you all for listening, giving feedback, & sharing. For laughing with us, for opening up with us, for loving us! Make sure you stay connected @apodcastabout on all platforms. Listen! Laugh! Love! *DISCLAIMER* You may hear somethings that you feel are questionable. You may hear some words that you do not like and that might even offend you. But if you think about it there is nothing worse than our president right now so I think you'll be ok. IJS --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/apan/message

Yall should see the way they look at each other. These two couples really love, respect and charis one another.

I wouldn't give myself any kind of room to find out if somebody else is my soulmate because I found the one.” ~ Black During this interview I believe that Sherelle almost cried about 3 times! Were you looking for marriage before you got into a relationship? I was looking for marriage when I was 21. I almost made a terrible mistake. ~ MoBetta How many of us got into a relationship and stayed longer than you should've? How many of us have been engaged, had kids, gave our bodies and damn near our souls to a situation that wasn't healthy?

    And we're back with Pt.2 of “Interracial Duo” ft. Jake and Ashley Vicious. This section is brought to you by…  Moonshine Shots and a Good Time. LOL When you are an interratial couple there are so many things that you must discuss. Does your family season their food? Are we going to name our child “Jacob” or “Day-Quan”, “Anna-Beth” or “Shaquanna”? Most importantly how are we going to raise our kids in today's society? What school will they attend? Culture and their heritage. You can say whatever you want but when one parent is black and one parent is white that child will always be considered black. Jake, being a “man” first is going to do everything in his power to protect and provide for his family, and a “white” man second how is he going to prepare this little black boy or girl for the world? There are certain things that Jake didn't n't have to worry about growing up are a white boy in Mahwah, NJ. Listen in as we dig deeper and get serious... I mean it we are serious this time!  DISCLAIMER: WE SAY BAD WORDS, but when you really think about it they are just words. So depending on what type of parent you are this may be suitable for children under 13.
