Whole lotta people going out sad! Back for another recap of #loveafterlockup

It's been a while since we've discussed some hot topics! We are witnessing unprecedented Black achievement and creativity, and in turn, we're also seeing the rhetoric that tries to dim those accomplishments. From the initial response to the record-breaking opening weekend that SINNERS had in theaters, to the narrative around Shedeur Sanders as he entered the NFL Draft, let's discuss the ways in which the powers that be seek to undermine Black American success.

Go and see about your kids!! Back with another recap of the Going Out Sad Gang #loveafterlockup

Let these people get out and see their loved ones before you start talking about what they were supposed to do for you!Super late with a recap of last week's shenanigans. #loveafterlockup

One thing about it, everyone on the outside this season is in competition for their man! Ladies, stand up! Back for another recap of #LoveafterLockup

Is there a name for the human urge to immediately have a baby with a man that just got released from a long bid? Back for another recap of #loveafterlockup

Baby if you've been down bad over a man since back when you were a pre-teen, and you have to go through a prison bid with him to get some love in return, it's time to let go! Back with another recap of the foolishness on #loveafterlockup

Back to recap a brand new season and this time we've got some Jerry Springer level mess! This season has the potential to give us all the drama we've been missing and more. #loveafterlockup

You can only believe that you will have a fairy tale ending with somebody fresh out of the slammer but for so long...reality will always come knocking! Wrapping up this season of #loveduringlockup.

Kicking off this week with a quick chat on our plans to stay recession-ready. #LoveDuringLockup recap begins at 6:00!

Let's get into some fresh mess with a little bit of eye candy on the side! #loveduringlockup

Back with our final thoughts on this cast of true characters, and hopefully this is the last time we'll see any of them! Best wishes, good luck, but please don't come back! #lifeafterlockup

We came back from our holiday break to more babies, proposals, crazy mamas that we still defend, and kiddos who are wise beyond their years. Let's catch up on #LifeafterLockup.

Back to run down the past couple weeks...the people on the outside are looking funny in the light this season and we have to admit, the recently released have more sense than their delusional partners! #loveafterlockup

We got a chance to record LIVE this week and we're back to recap more of the foolishness: a mother who took 4 gummies before going to church; a 35yo grandmother announced she's pregnant with twins; and a mother of 2 got engaged to a man that won't stay off that narcotic and he stole her daddy's dirt bike back in the day (and he ain't forgot!) #loveafterlockup

We're squeezing the most out of Summer but you know we had to share our thoughts on this criminal cast! The biggest lessons from the latest episodes: don't invite chaos into your home, and don't create a relationship in your mind with someone that they didn't sign up for! #loveafterlockup

Always remember: if they went into the penitentiary at 18, they will likely come out with that same 18yr-old mentality! Back with another recap of our favorite felon programming. #loveafterlockup

Spring Break may have delayed this upload, but our discussion has remained relevant! We're just a few months into the new year and we have already heard so many chaotic stories. Let's talk about the truth tellers who some may see as heroes, and the villians they have exposed.

This week we're celebrating Black History Month and discussing the historic migration of African Americans from the South to the North in the early 1900s in search of a better life free from sharecropping and Jim Crow. We discuss our families and the moves they made North, the importance of family reunions, moving back to the South, and we show our gratitude for all of those that came before us that made the brave move for a better life!

BBW, big back, THIQUE, wide and all outside, or otherwise…if you're a part of the plus size community, it gets real out here! Let's get into all of the ways we navigate fashion, friendships, relationships, goals, and success in this world while throwing a lil extra weight around.

A season full of fillers, but we made it work. We don't need to see a lot of these street people ever again! #lifeafterlockup #loveafterlockup

(Katt Williams tried to steal our thunder setting it off so early in 2024, but) I've brought some special guests back for another great chat!! We went through the gender wars in 2023 and Lord knows we're tired! So what can we do with everything we've learned in this new year? Ladies are you proposing to men? What constitutes spousal embarrassment vs abuse? When will Chappelle let trans (and other marginalized folks) live? And fellas, is a woman's mindset most important to you, and what does that mean for the get money girlies? Let's take the hottest buttons and talk about potential solutions for 2024 and beyond!

Happy Holidays ho ho hos!!! We finally got together in person to wrap up this season and get ready for this biggest season of #LifeafterLockup yet.

Fat Joe ushered us into a new era when he said, “yesterday's price is not today's price!”. Inflation has become a hot topic and real issue for Americans since way back at the beginning of the pandemic, and we are still feeling the squeeze. Let's talk about playing it smart in a world where the cost of living continues to increase while goods and services may not feel worth the money. And you already know we share our thoughts on the latest lineup of villians!

The thrill is gone and the hope of turning a former inmate into a housewife (or househusband!) is fading. Back with more unforgiving opinions and ready for #lifeafterlockup!

We've been in and out, but we made it happen this week. Catching up on the latest episodes, sharing our favorites that we want to see on #lifeafterlockup this winter, and covering some of the wildest follow-up stories from #LoveafterLockup: Where are they Now?

Back to discuss the delusional trying to live out their fantasies with people on parole! #loveafterlockup

This episode is way overdue, I had major technical difficulties! Earlier this month I caught up with my people to start the count down to Homecoming! We covered a few throwbacks from our first Be Out Day to Boyz of Poison, celebrating a major reunion, the latest achievements in athletics and academics, and how to hang as you age out of everything. Get in the spirit and HYDRATE, it's almost time!

Our bad for taking half the summer off...we've been tuned in though! Back to catch up on the latest felonious foolery. We dropped some toothless gems on this one!

We kick off this week's criminal convo with our take on the presidential RICO charges before getting into WeTV's weekly circus. Crying and running after an inmate? Not very Big Diva of you. Review starts around 15:00.

This week we kick off discussing all things Alabama first! (Mostly Montgomery with a sprinkle of Carlee) The felonious fun begins around 14:00.

If you're in prison with an unauthorized device, when you call you better talk to me nice! We're late but we made it. Let's get caught up on this new cast of characters!

We know that the relationship between Black women and their naturally curly hair remains complicated, and there's always a new 'twist' to take into consideration. Curl Specialist Erlinda Jones (@curlsavvy) is back to discuss all things curls, the post-YouTube University online community, the Dora the Explorer cut, and our words of encouragement for the sistas on their curly hair journeys.

Y'all know I love a good series! Let's explore the world of content creation and the inspiration that drives creators to share their stories and experiences, starting with @TheLisaSykes and all things Beauty.
