Welcome Back, everyone! To my neverending mess. Don't worry this is a happier episode. I am happy to be feeling better and sharing all of that with you all my loyal listeners!

Oh hey there! Welcome back to my podcast! Time for more of the mess - but let's start off nice and easy and remember why we are here....for me! I am joined by my best friend, servant, and guest host Carolyn today! We are discussing a bunch of stuff but same format. You know the drill, so take a listen! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mackenzie-cierra/support

This is going to be brief because I don't want to dwell in that room for long - this episode, this mini-episode is about grief, my grief, your grief, and how we shouldn't be ashamed of grief and how it's okay to not know what to do with it. Nobody wins when hearts are broken and secrets are kept at the expense of others, nobody wins when people are in pain and there are innocent lives on the line. Be respectful and be understanding. That's all I ask with this episode. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mackenzie-cierra/support

This week I am joined by my friend and guest host Carlo Traverso.  We've known each other since the 7th grade!  Carlo and I are talking all things covid related, anime-related, and ass eating-related (only slightly joking about this). Join us as we discuss the soundtracks to our lives, what we are watching and listening to and we even dive into a little political talk.  I hope you're vaccinated because we are coming at you fast.  Shameless Plug: @Terrystaste on instagram --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mackenzie-cierra/support

Hello Friends and Nosey people! Welcome to 2022 - everybody come in and don't touch anything! After the terrible year of 2021 - for me - I am back with my podcast and some more mess. This year we are back to living intentionally and effectively. We are giving ourselves space to mess up and fess up and all those things while still knowing the world moves forward and so will we. I love how I am building support systems and removing people that are causing me to feel negative about myself unnecessarily. Girls - we are living in luxury and self-care. We are not only writing down our goals but we are establishing plans and solutions on how to achieve them. Take a listen to this week's introductory podcast episodes as I lube you up and slide myself back into your life! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mackenzie-cierra/support

Hi, I can't be as transparent as I want to be, I am not ready, and things are still ongoing so I can't give specific names or details. But I wanted to bleed my heart out a little - because this podcast is for me to use as an outlet for the emotions that overwhelm me. So take a listen, and do so with good intentions and open ears. There is more than one life at stake now - so please be kind and gentle. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mackenzie-cierra/support

Y'all want some mess? Welcome to my love life - it is like open season out here with exes popping up left and right. It's like after a lioness gives birth and they can smell her ready to be rebred again. News Flash: I am not in heat so where are y'all coming from? So let's talk about it - some things in this episode are in reference to past episodes so if you want to understand some of the mess...or umm nicknames like the shitty booty one you're going to have to check out past episodes. This time I'm joined by two of my friends that know my exes...at least from a distance since Carolyn wouldn't touch them with a ten-foot pole. Take a listen and enjoy a little bit of a more lighthearted episode this week. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mackenzie-cierra/support

Okay, if you don't know what code-switching is or you weren't born into the cookout invite then this episode is not for you. As they say, this is for the niggas, strictly for the niggas. If you are not one of those, you are a guest (an uninvited one that didn't even bring no sodas nor paper plates). For the rest of y'all - WELCOME MY PEOPLE! Today we are going to be blackity black and talk about black stuff. Specifically we are discussing things like stereotypes and when we fell into our blackness; this episode made me cry a bit and we ALL know I'm not an emotional girl (insert sarcastic face here). Grab y'all some chicken, potatoes salad, a lil cornbread, couple pieces of ham, and a slice of peach cobbler (again if you do not know that reference this episode is not for you) and cop a squat because we get a little deep in our roots here with my wonderful and beautiful guest host, Chantel. This episode is about celebrating that we are not a monolith but that we are all rising up on the same black ass hands that came on ships hundreds of years ago forced to live in this country and through it all survived so I could sit here and tell you about it. I hope you enjoy this episode in the name of my ancestors and yours. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mackenzie-cierra/support

In this episode, I am joined by my wonderful friend Josh! We get political, just a little, more like a grand scheme of things overview. We are talking about the law, the state of this country, I yell about white people and Josh tolerates it all (as he should since he is a white man). We also cover some cool stuff we are watching and songs to sing along to. I promise this episode isn't a trauma dump but we do cover our own experiences with the political machines of our lives and I touch on some recent experiences and my thoughts on the treatment of Black people with the police. So sit down and take a listen (it's a long one but it goes fast - kind of like some of my exes). Mentioned In This Episode: Music: Kacey Musgraves - Star-Crossed Album Shows: One Piece!

Homies and individuals who also have no idea what's going on. In this episode, we are talking about the changing of the seasons and changing diapers! I am joined by my guest host and mother of my godchild (who I nicknamed Bubbly - who makes a background appearance) Carolyn! We are discussing how the fall makes us sick...literally, neurodivergence, and more! I tried to keep it kid-friendly so I don't curse as much in this episode...surprisingly. Please enjoy this episode and I hope you love it as much as I love my Carolyn! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mackenzie-cierra/support

I AM BACK PEOPLE!  Okay that was a little loud.  I have been going through a lot these last few months...and still am.  But I missed podcasting and I'm sure some of you missed me - or my mess. I promise I will give you plenty of this big 'ole thang as I used to and you'll enjoy the climax - but it's important to never go in without some lubricant and foreplay (I'm talking to you fellas) so let me ease myself back into you slowly (sorry for all the sex references it's been a few days).  This week I'm telling you what I'm watching and what I'm planning for the future.  Grab your condoms...I mean headphones and welcome back to the mess!

This episode my brother decided he wanted to bring a friend and we are joined by Rell (who is that guy who doesn't do social media). We are talking about romantic relationships and the evolving way that people are experiencing them, defining them, and confusing them. We cover lack of communication and everybody's individual standards. We get funny in this episode and I even added a new segment (with a brief shoutout to my dad who inspired the title). Join me as I attempt to wrangle my own thoughts, and that of two grown men as we try to figure out what the hell we are talking about.
