We are still hitting this good Question of the Week, as always, and this week's is Why did we make Brandon drive this week's episode? It might not seem like much, but we're really asking why are we doing something different, doing something that we're uncomfortable with at the time? We talk about these all the time, but today, you get the opportunity to see one of the members of the Dropping Dymes Podcast to be in that very position.

Hopefully we share something, drop a dyme or two that you can pick up, save in your piggy bank of life, and cash it in when the time is right, and it makes sense in your situation! Today's famous Question of the Week was a lighter one, more of the reminiscing type. What's TV show or series that you think ended too soon? This is where we just list our favorites, but also some that had you locked in, on the edge of your seat, waiting and anticipating, and then boom, it was gone! Some ended, and we understood why and how, but then there are those that ended fairly abruptly, and we wondered whatever happened to that character, or this one? So, let us know which ones do you think ended too soon? Let's talk about it! Today's episode is something I'm sure we all can add a story to, but we asked the question what's the hardest lesson the opposite sex taught you? Doesn't have to be about love either. It can be about finances, about managing time, about loving yourself first, but we want to hear what you learned. If you decide to share the back story on how it got to that point, that would be awesome as well. I think we all can relate here, and looking back, we can laugh about it, hopefully, even if it's just a little bit. So let's hear it. Drop those dymes in the comments. Let's talk about it! As the Christmas holiday approaches, we would like to wish you a Happy Holidays!!! You all are one of the best

Of course, we jump right into the Question of the Week, and this week we want to know What's a small inconvenience that can ruin your whole day? Could be as small as a mouse to some, but as large as a mountain to the person in that moment, but let's hear it. Could it be not setting that alarm the night before, forgetting your meal prep, a good coworker not showing up can make the day seem long and whack, but what's yours. Of course we drop our dyme here, and it might be small, but can ruin the day, for damn sure. Let's talk about it! On today's episode, we had an early special guest, our lil partner to the pod, Braylen. He couldn't stay for the whole episode, so we start with the time he was able to share with us, and we talked about fear. What scares you when you're small can be completely different as you get older, but some things will always be. Scared of what's under the bed should change, but having a healthy fear of your father is quite alright!..lol What's something you feared as a child that you feel you grew out of, and what's something that you fear now as an adult? Let's talk about it!As for the rest of the episode, and the more adult segment of the show, we ask the question what's one of the biggest misconceptions people have about you? The world think that they can look at you at times, and tell things about you, or sometimes when people know you or think they know you, and they build from what they think they know, and really have no idea. Sometimes, you haven't given someone much to build from, and a whole set of thoughts are created to fill in a story in their head. What do you think is something people have possibly built in their head about you, and it was totally wrong, a total misconception of you and your character? Let's talk about it! We talk appreciation today, but we appreciate you giving us a little of your time, letting us borrow a little of your space, to let us just come in and do what we do, and that's just talk each and every time you come spend this time with us!

It's been a while since we had a good ole Question and Answer session, but today, you get our perspective on a couple of good questions! First one we jumped into on today's episode is What's the most surprising thing you've learned about yourself recently? This can be something deep, something silly, maybe a talent, maybe it was something that was there the whole time, and you just had the time to really notice it and put a name to it...Whatever it is, let's talk about it! The next question can someone tie into the first, depending on what you discovered about yourself, but the question is What's something you realized you like less and less as you get older? This literally could be what you've discovered about yourself. It could be something that snuck up on you in recent years, what if it's that thing you almost hated about your parents, and now you find yourself feeling the same way? As hilarious or serious as this can be to you, we'd love to hear it, so let's talk about it!

The Question of the Week for this week was "Are you okay with going in your own direction when it's the opposite of what's popular, or what the rest of the crowd is doing?" Some people are "loners," some create their own lanes, some just never got to a place of following, and that's not to say that following is bad, but everyone won't fit that mold. Do you move to beat of your own drum, or are you a member of the band? There's absolutely nothing wrong with either, but we want to now where you stand or maybe even stood when you were younger. Our special guess for today's episode has always shown us that he has his own beat and doesn't need the world's music to move around. But we want to hear your thoughts, so let's talk about it!Today's episode has one of our returning guest, and a favorite of the podcast, our guy Roger. Today's episode is about the perception the media portrays black people. We want to know how you feel about how we're being portrayed. Do you think it 's a fair representation, is it being presented as over the top, are we being demonized, and how does this impact the way we see ourselves, and the way that others see us? How can they do a better job of representing us in these shows, and maintain the entertainment value? Do you think the depictions are for entertainment only, and we have to do a better job of separating fact and fiction? We really want to hear your thoughts on this one, because it's something that really can impact the way the world receive and perceive us as a whole. Let's talk about it! Of course we appreciate Roger for coming through and dropping a dyme or two with the guys.

Should it just be allowed that your partner be able to go through your phone, through emails, accounts, so on and so forth?

Is it looks, maybe a bomb ass walk, someone that can really cook or maybe its the ability to hold a good conversation. Let us know yours! Let's talk about it! This week's topic is all about leaving!

The Question of the Week for this week is what do you think was your worst financial decision you've made? At this point in life, I think we've all had that moment where we had buyer's remorse, or looking back, you thought to yourself "where did all that money go?" What was yours? Was it the super long chain back in the day, the Honda Accord with 200K miles on it, or was it buying the bar when you thought you had real money? Let's talk about it! What was your worst financial decision?With that being said, today's topic is an extension of the Question of the Week, and get into when were you at your "brokest" financially? When did you feel like you had no money? I think we've all be there, but the word "broke" can mean something different for each of us. For some, once you get under a certain amount, you get that feeling. For others, when you have to monitor your account a little more, that could be that feeling of being at your financial low. For some of us, it's been your account laughs at you when you log in to check it. Like most things we discuss on here, these answers will vary, but we want to know what broke has looked like for you, when did it happen, and how did you get yourself out of the moment? Let's really talk about it. I know there's someone at home wondering why would we have this kind of conversation. A few reasons, but he's a couple of good reasons to us. Sometimes letting people know they're not alone can stop them from doing something that could hurt them in so many ways. Sometimes, tell how you were able to get yourself out of the moment can be exactly what someone else needs to hear to get them out of theirs. So, with that being said, let talk about it!

From time to time, things fly off the rails, take a turn for the good or the bad, they go astray, shit goes left...Well, this might be a smidge of one of those episodes. Nothing too crazy, but today's episode, we never quite made it past the Question of the Week. It was a good one, and as they often do, it took us down a few different paths, roads and avenues. None to hurt, harm or discourage anyone from living life, but to open up new ways of thinking, being open, to laugh and most of all, for entertainment. So come smile with us, and enjoy the question, the conversation, and join in, share your thoughts. This week's Question of the Week is what's something that's "taboo," but you're curious about and maybe want to try? So we would like to give a working definition of taboo, and that is a social or religious custom prohibiting or forbidding discussion of a particular practice or forbidding association with a particular person, place, or thing. Now, with that being said, what's your thing? What are you curious about, but maybe haven't tried because of how you'll be perceived, how you'll be judged?

This week we discuss creating iur own happiness. As we've said so many times before, happiness is an inside job, and we shouldnt rely on others to make us happy, right? So what are we doing to make ourselves happy? Are we taking that relax time to unwind, are we making sure we reward ourselves properly? Whats the last thing you did to make yourself smile? And how long ago was that? Do we really even know what happiness is, because if not, then how do we know how yo get there? We get into all of this, but as always, we want you in in thia too.

Today's Question of the Week kinda stirs the pot in a sense. What's a toxic trait that you have, you really don't plan on getting rid of, so others might just have to get used to? There are a couple of questions that can be behind this one, like should all toxic traits be changed? Are toxic traits and our “super power” somewhat related? With that being said, what do you possibly need to let go, but you probably won't? We won't tell anybody, promise!

This is probably one that touches home for a lot of men, and even a tough spot or position for some ladies. We won't live on this earth without needing help from someone else. Whether at work, home, the store, grabbing for something that maybe you can't reach, financially, spiritually, you have to admit, we all need help in life, but the tough part is asking for it. Maybe it's a feeling of being inadequate, maybe it's figuring out the words to say to ask, maybe it's the thought of being denied the help, something has made us all reluctant to ask. People around us have told us so many times that they're there for you, they're willing to do so, but something makes it tough. We will all need it, literally, and sometimes, it's the next step in being a better version of yourself. We will all have our reasons, but for every fivefive reasons you don't or won't ask, please find one to ask. Know there are people around you that are willing to help, so listen to those people, and if that moment occurs, don't hesitate to ask and confide in those people.As always, we appreciate you giving us a little of your time, letting us borrow a little of your space, to let us just come in and do what we do, and that's just talk!

Some of these answers are hilarious, crazy, wild and will have you like nahhh! Some of the things people have encountered in dating are movie worthy! So, in the comments, let us know what's been your craziest date moments? Also, we want you to send in your questions that can be the Question of the Day. We'll give our answers, and also run it by the rest of the DDP viewers to get their responses as well. And just like I said, if your question is chosen as the QOTW, you'll receive a DDP t-shirt. So, send in some good questions!Today's topic can take a few different turns, and if it can, it will on the Dropping Dymes Podcast. Today we talk Gaining Weight. And whatever you think it's about, that's exactly what it is! We discuss the different ways that "weight" can be gained, distributed, managed, maintained, gained and loss. We have to realize that we're constantly carrying weight in some form. Whether we're talking our physical body weight, our psychological and mental weight, financial weight, we are carrying, but the bigger part to this is how are we managing this/ these weights? Are you getting stronger to be able to carry them easier, are you looking to shed some weight to make it easier to bare and carry, or you standing still, possibly in fear of not being able to move that weight? All weight isn't bad, because there have been times when some people have wanted to gain weight, to help in the process of getting stronger, preparing them for what could be down the line, so we don't want you to think that the "gaining weight" notion is always a bad thing. It has the ability to be both good, and not so good, and we talk both, and what we think we can do to be able to manage both. Let's get it into, let's grow!

Today's episode, based on the title, you might think "Lord, not another one of those," but we get into it, and how we actually used it to grow, and it really does show "What That Trauma Can Do." We dive in and discuss experiences that we've encountered in life that may have at some point left us scarred. Those scars can be for a moment, can remain with us for years, or even for life. When you decide that you don't want to carry those, a plan of action is taken. Whether we seek therapy, the guidance of others, or whatever helps, we are using that to help us grow in the right direction, in some way, fashion or form. Growth isn't always good, and can sometimes create paths leading us away from being "better from it." Sometimes, this creates phobias, levels of fear, complacency, and a number of other things. On today's episode, we talk about how we have decided to take our trauma, and in which way we decided to let it help us grow. One of the biggest reasons we push "Let's grow together!"Something new we're looking to start, instead of our question of the week, send in questions that you would like us to answer during the episode.

And lord, this one took off, quick! Of course the excuses the guys from DDP are going to be completely different from those of the DDP family, but we all have had that moment when you decide that you just don't want to be a part of this act, at least not in this moment. For guys, it's a little different, but in a bad way. There can be stereotypes and stigmas that can be attached when men want to back out, so we literally have to come up with an "excuse," but for the ladies, you all should be able to simply say "I don't want to," but if you've had to, we really want to hear them. And since we're here, what's been the wildest reaction you've received when you gave your excuse? Now as we know, when DDP has these kinds of QOTD, the answers keep going and so do the laughs! So let's talk about it! As we approach our 100th episode, we want to know what have been some of your favorite DDP episodes or favorite moments? We want to always keep you all incorporated in things that we do, discuss and share, so let us know, so we can possibly revisit some of those moment, episodes and I'm sure funny moments.

Hopefully your Easter Sunday was awesome, you were able to enjoy time with your family, but really embrace the reason for this particular season. The Question of the Day was influenced by the season, and was raised by Wallace, and he asked a few...lol One of his questions was can you tell me the story of Easter, and why we have it? Another was what does grace look like to you? What does His grace look like to us in our everyday life? And what does grace look like as you offer grace to others and being offered back to you? We would love to hear your thoughts on grace alone, even if you don't want to address Easter, grace is an everyday occurrence, so what does it mean to you, and look like for you? *In the explanation of grace and the meaning of Easter, please excuse our language* For today's episode, we talk about having to wear different mask in life, and the question is do you wear those masks for yourself, or do you wear those masks for them? I think we've all felt at times that we've had to wear different masks at at different times in life, but are they for yourself, to hide who you are, who you might have been or could still be, or are you wearing them so people don't view you a certain way, maybe as your truest self? Sometimes these masks are to make others comfortable, to hide your discomfort or to make situations lighter in the moment. Sometimes we wear these masks to break barriers to make future "moves," and help in making sure you're able to build around you. We even discuss how wearing these masks can simply be seen as reading the room, and acting accordingly. Would you consider this a skill, being a "sell out," not being yourself, or just learning to adapt? We really want to hear your thoughts on this, and what you think about having to wear those different masks. Have you found yourself wearing different masks, and realizing it in the moment?

    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back!!! Thank you for pulling up on us! We greatly appreciate your presence, and want to thank you for letting us borrow a little bit of your time, letting us into a little bit of your space, and just letting us come in and do what we do, and that's just talk! Hopefully we share something, drop a dyme or two that you can pick up, save in your piggy bank of life, and cash it in when the time is right, and it makes sense in your situation! Hopefully your Easter Sunday was awesome, you were able to enjoy time with your family, but really embrace the reason for this particular season. The Question of the Day was influenced by the season, and was raised by Wallace, and he asked a few...lol One of his questions was can you tell me the story of Easter, and why we have it? Another was what does grace look like to you? What does His grace look like to us in our everyday life? And what does grace look like as you offer grace to others and being offered back to you? We would love to hear your thoughts on grace alone, even if you don't want to address Easter, grace is an everyday occurrence, so what does it mean to you, and look like for you? *In the explanation of grace and the meaning of Easter, please excuse our language* For today's episode, we talk about having to wear different mask in life, and the question is do you wear those masks for yourself, or do you wear those masks for them? I think we've all felt at times that we've had to wear different masks at at different times in life, but are they for yourself, to hide who you are, who you might have been or could still be, or are you wearing them so people don't view you a certain way, maybe as your truest self? Sometimes these masks are to make others comfortable, to hide your discomfort or to make situations lighter in the moment. Sometimes we wear these masks to break barriers to make future "moves," and help in making sure you're able to build around you. We even discuss how wearing these masks can simply be seen as reading the room, and acting accordingly. Would you consider this a skill, being a "sell out," not being yourself, or just learning to adapt? We really want to hear your thoughts on this, and what you think about having to wear those different masks. Have you found yourself wearing different masks, and realizing it in the moment? Did you feel weird when you caught yourself doing it, or was it a conscious decision to do so? Let's talk about it! And just to make it fun, if you read this description today, Friday, April 5th, tap in down in the comments, let me know you read it, and we'll get a classic Dropping Dymes t-shirt mailed out to you, so comment "I seen it" and drop your size, and we'll get in touch with you for your information.

Vernon jumps right in, and holds his own on the couch with the guys! We get into the Question of the Week, and it turned into one hell-of-a conversation. Wallace asked "What was the biggest surprise that caught you off guard in the transition from childhood into adulthood?" One thing that was brought up in the conversation was the "path" you had planned out vs. the plan or how life actually plays itself out. The perspectives are different, but goes to show that no path is the same for 2 different people. Realizing what's best for you is a big part of life. The path that's given, or forced isn't always what you'd like. The path that happens by circumstance sometimes wasn't the goal. The path that's your purpose could be later down the line. What we hope is that at some point, we're able to align, and have the life that you can love and enjoy. We hope that you enjoyed this episode as much as we actually enjoyed filming it!

This week's Question of the Week is another Top 5 list, and this week, it's what's your top 5 rappers? Now, don't mistake this for the top 5 all time or any of those list, but just your top 5. We're southerners, of course, so a lot of time, we hear our music and may not stretch our musical ears, but guess what? It doesn't matter right now, because these are just OUR very own favorites...lol Of course we give our top 5, no apologies given for who we enjoy either. We would also like to know yours, if you don't mind sharing with us, and the rest of the world. Whether it's GloRilla, Jay-Z, Boosie, Dr. Dre, Biggie, Pac, Scarface, doesn't really matter, let us hear it. Let's talk about it! This week's episode we get into those times that we might not have had a voice, or at least one that was loud enough, those times when we weren't the shining star and didn't get the attention from those who mattered most, but we ask the question "Has there been a time when you felt unseen or unheard?" Immediately, the we realized that this conversation could go in so many directions, and of course we tried taking it in a few directions that may resonate with you all the most. As a child, I think a lot of kids weren't heard, especially as it pertained to how things made us feel emotionally, but we we also talk about not being seen at times. How sometimes we've felt even unseen or unheard by spouses or significant others. This happens by loved ones more than one would think, especially considering these are usually the ones we want to hear us or see us the most, but it happens. This also goes into our work environments, kids at school, etc. Now, we want to know when was the last time you felt unseen or unheard? Was it at work, was it at home, with your family, friends?

This week's Question of the Week was an awesome one, and it was simply What is something in your life you need to let go? And the answers from the guys turned into an all our episode of growth. That's literally promoted here, and you might witness it on film in this episode. I think we all have things that we need to release. Bad habits mostly. No matter how small we think these things are, if they hinder our growth, it is something we should be considering to let go! We acknowledge those things, and then attack how to move forward and rid ourselves of those habits. The old saying is "bad habits die hard," and this definitely holds true to a lot of us. Some of these habits, we don't even consider "bad" because we've been doing them just that long. Even more reason for us to outgrow them, but doesn't that possibly take us out of what's probably a comfort zone? We know that nothing growing resides in our comfort zones, so this in itself gives us even more reason to let them go. I'm sure, like the guys, you have a couple of habits that we need to let go, and since you're here, let's talk about it! What's something you need to let go, or is your "something" a someone?

We were soooo anxious and so ready to get into this new episode and get the year going with you all that we were double and triple checking things, and actually checked it too much.

So here we are, still giving you all that we got, and hoping it falls right where it should with anyone who has an opportunity to hear. We're starting the year off with an awesome guest, Anthony "Nacho" Nunez from our flag football team, Georgia Smoke.

Nacho was definitely an addition, and an addition in a major way. Today, we play the question game with you, and it was another good session.

    Welcome back, welcome back, welcome all the way the hell back! And this is the last welcome back of the year, and for sticking around with us for another year, we appreciate you for sticking with us through another year! We say it often, but as we close out the year, we will say it yet again, thank you for giving us a little of your time, letting us borrow a little of your space, and letting us just do what we do, and that's just TALK! Hopefully in these conversations that we're having, we drop a dyme or two that you can add to you "Piggy bank of life," and you're able to cash it in at the right time, and it can help your life in some way. So hopefully we're adding to, and not taking from. This week's Question of the Week was a good one. Wallace watched an episode of The Pivot where they sat down and talked to rapper Dee-1. Awesome interview with an amazingly talented young man, but it brought up the debate on whether or not it's up to the artist to change or clean up their content once they make it to a certain status in their careers. We discuss how it impacts young Americans, but deeper, young African Americans, their decision making, their life outlooks, crime and the African American community as a whole. Let us know your thoughts as well. Do you think it becomes the responsibility of artist to change their content to help in the uplifting of the community, or should we see it for entertainment and that's all? Let's talk about it! Today's episode, When to Walk Away, is one of those that can go in a number of directions. Romantic relationships usually come to mind first, because matters of the heart are big to most of us, but sometimes it's knowing when to walk away from a job, a friendship or anything else that you can walk away from. What are you willing to accept is totally up to you, and can't be determined by what someone else has been able to carry or withstand. So, knowing “when” is big, but depending on the level of things, the “how” can be just a important. This is one of those conversations that could've gone on for hours, but we definitely didn't want to bore you with all of that today, but we're going to revisit this one, and soon! Today's episode was the last full episode for the 2023 year. So we want to tell you thank you, we appreciate you, and if we don't see you again between now and then, Happy Holidays to you and yours! Also with that being said, as always, we appreciate you, we thank you, for letting us have a little of your time, for letting us into a little of your space, to just let us in to do what we do, and that's just talk.

Getting serious about your career, getting serious about having a romantic partner, getting serious about your physical health or getting serious about almost anything else in life.
