T2Q

(Show #703 originally aired June 17, 2017) On this TBT edition, I pulled a snippet of a show that was called, "Do You Care What People Think Of You?".  It was a show that discussed if people cared about how society perceived them.  Is there no such thing of being ashamed of your actions these days? However, the show took a turn when Crystal brought up how people once perceived her as someone who "talked white".  Is abstaining from Ebonics or broken English a form of cultural assimilation in whiteness?  Crystal and Dr. Willis have a serious disagreement about the topic. What do you think?  Feel free to leave feedback below. Crystal, Buck, Dr. Willis, and M&M get into "talking white and curse words" on Throwback Thursday!

I get an opportunity to chat with Shimmer supermodel and the 2020 International Runway Model Search winner, Dawn Moultroup!  Dawn joins me to discuss her modeling career and how she got started.  We also chat about the thing she most enjoys about her career.  I also pick her brain and get her opinion of "IG models" and if they are truly to be considered models or not.  What actually qualifies a person as a model? Oh, did I mention that she's also an author?  Her book, "Magnetism" will be out soon in Amazon and other book websites.  It is a supernatural / sci-fi story about a young girl who realizes that she has the ability interact with electronics.  The story behind the inspiration for her writing the book will blow you away!  All of this and more on this Q-on-1 edition of the Talk 2 Q Radio Show!

Let's be honest: in 2020, it's very hard to find someone over the age of 21 who doesn't already have at least one child.  That makes relationships a lot more complicated these days because gone is the era in which all you had to worry about was one person.  Now you have to consider your mate as his/her "broke best friends".   How should you approach it?  How can you find someone you can blend with and ultimately build a family?  How do you know that person isn't just trying to make you a "helper" and not a long-term option? There are so many questions one has to ask himself/herself before you ever think about pulling the trigger on finding a bae.  We present those questions to you on this week's live call-in edition of the Talk 2 Q Radio Show.  "No experts. Just opinions." Get the perspective you've never considered before delivered to your ears from one of my callers or Show Legends on this week's T2Q.

(Show #354 originally aired on June 17, 2014.) Of course my answer is "absolutely." Fathers are definitely needed.  I can't imagine being the man that I am without my father helping to mold me. However, there are a lot of women who have done everything on their own. A lot of them have raised some really productive children, but a majority haven't been as lucky. With so many women claiming "independence" and "I don't need a man" where do fathers fit in? With so many fathers living life as sperm donors, due to their lack of motivation, do they deserve to fit in? This TBT edition was a huge show as I was joined by Crystal, Buck, Ray, Amanda, Dr. Willis, M&M, Eric, Robin, and Stanley!  This was a controversial show that got heated at times.  Check out this classic podcast of the Talk 2 Q Radio Show!

This is a special Mother's Day podcast on T2Q!  I was fortunate enough to spend some time with Dawn G. Smith of the podcast, "Let's Talk Live" and the movement, "Raising Our Sons in America". Dawn is the mother of three boys and I felt as if she was perfectly qualified to discuss the following topics: What's the husband's role when it comes to Mother's Day?As a mother of three black boys and Georgia citizen, how did the Ahmaud Arbery shooting affect your family?How does Raising Our Sons in America (ROSA) help young, black men in today's society?What is the perfect Mother's Day for you? I had an absolute great time speaking with her and you'll have a great time listening to the interview.  And stay tuned at the end of the interview as I share some thoughts on Mother's Day now that my mom is no longer here.  I share a story that I've never told anyone about. I hope that you enjoy this Q-on-1 podcast on the Talk 2 Q Radio Show. You can check out Dawn at Let's Talk Live Podcast and ROSA, Inc.  Get her book, "31-Day Affirmations for African American Boys".

On tonight's show, we're discussing TV shows and movies.  There are a ton of options when it comes to TV viewing now.  It's hard to believe that most of the people my age and up grew up with just 4 stations on TV.  I was in high school when my family finally decided to get cable and it opened a whole new world to me.  Now some would argue that there's too much TV to watch these days.  If you find yourself saying, "there's nothing on TV" in today's time then you may have ADHD.  There's Netflix, Hulu, Sling, Disney+, and more.  Not to mention your traditional satellite and cable companies and upcoming streaming services like Peacock and HBO Max.  Which one is better?  Which one gives you more bang for your buck? And what are you binge-watching during this quarantine period?  A lot of us are stuck at home and we need something to do to pass the time.  I'll ask my callers what they're watching.  I'm binge-watching "Black Lightning", "The Office" (again), "Queen Sono", and the occasional movie.

You can't be an adult male and have never heard a woman uttered the title "a real man". But what exactly is "a real man" and what makes him different from a plain old "man"? This is the definition that Urban Dictionary has for "a real man": A real man has manners, is polite, and considerate. He is honest and open and true to himself. He will fight for and defend the people that he loves. He is a hard-worker. He is not spiteful. He respects women and shows appreciation for all of his blessings. A real man is the provider of the family. He is strong, physically and mentally, and is never too proud to exhibit strong emotion. Once committed, he is faithful to only her. He does not disrespect her in any way. He helps with housework and is a role model for his children. A real man knows who he is, what he wants, and is grateful for what he has. I'm sure that my male Show Legends have a lot to say about that definition. This should be an interesting show, to say the least! Buckle your seat belts for this one. the Talk 2 Q Radio Show.

I'm thrilled to get the opportunity to chat with a fellow podcaster and author, Ms. Erica Warren! On this Q-on-1 podcast, Erica and I discuss how COVID-19 is affecting families and relationships. Cabin fever is real and with people having to self-quarantine along with significant others and children, how is it impacting their lives? We take for granted the freedom to get out of the house and do the things that allow us to unwind and lower our blood pressure. How do you handle life when that is no longer an option? Erica and I will toss around some ideas on how you can get through this coronavirus thing without your loved ones driving you crazy! We'll also discuss her newest book called "In Spite Of It All" that is coming out soon (and is currently available for pre-order here).

I've done many interviews before, but very few like the one I did with actor, Scott Schwartz.  Many of you have seen Scott in movies and TV shows from the 80's, but he's most known for his role as "Flick" in holiday movie, "A Christmas Story".  His character's iconic moment of getting his tongue stuck on the icy flagpole has been seen by millions and will always be a staple in the holiday season. Scott was barely a teen when he started in movies.  I ask him what his dream role is.  We also discuss the friendships he built with people with other child stars from the 80's.  He gives his two cents on "The Two Coreys" and how Corey Feldman isn't one of his favorite people.   This interview was the longest I've ever done, so I broke it down into three parts.  If you missed Part I or Part IIthen do yourself a favor and go back and enjoy my Q-on-1 podcast with Scott Schwartz on the Talk 2 Q Radio Show.   Show #788 www.Talk2Q.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/t2q/support

This show may be the most volatile that I've done in quite some time.  The United States is so divided when it comes to political ideologies and each day the gap grows.  It's to the point that the name "United States" is an oxymoron. What is the driving wedge between those on the Left and those on the Right?  Is it the 24-hour cable news stations pushing their agendas that's separating us?  Is it social media and their conspiracy theories and propaganda that makes us turn a deaf ear to others who may have a different perspective?  And where does it leave those of us who may fall in the middle? On this show, we'll discuss how the government (local and national) is handling the COVID-19 pandemic.  We'll also talk about what we can do to regrow the economy after all of this is over.  Of course, there will be Trump supporters as well as Trump bashers on this show and I'll have to play referee between the sides.

As a 70's baby, I have my own personal view of the world: The way my parents raised me, the type of content that was available on TV to watch or on the radio in which to listen, the interaction with other adults in my life, like neighbors and teachers. These things and more shaped my outlook on life. But things have changed dramatically since then. A lot of people don't have both parents present in the household like I did. The things on TV and radio now wouldn't have made it on the air back in the 70's. Neighbors are kept away from kids now and teachers and students are at war. So, how do 20-somethings navigate society with all of the potholes in place? Where do you get educated on life lessons when there appears to be a shortage of those who can teach you? Well, I'd like to welcome on a couple of young ladies who are currently going through this as we speak. Two Millennials. These ladies have a new podcast called "Let's Talk 20 Somethings".

He went from contending for the heayweight championship of the world in boxing to being an actor on the silver screen in Hollywood.  On this podcast, I get the opportunity to speak with one of the most interesting guests to ever join the show, Jack O'Halloran! Although he's been in many movies, most people remember him as the big, scary guy from Superman II.  His character, "Non", didn't speak, but he got his point across as he gave Superman fits throughout the movie. But very few people know that he was a solid heavyweight who had bouts with George Foreman and Ken Norton.  And he actually had an opportunity to fight Muhammad Ali, but that fell through.  Oh, did I mention that his father was the mob boss for Murder, Inc. in the 30's and 40's?  See the story of his dad chronicled in his book, "Family Legacy" available on Amazon.

People have been arguing about this for years, but tonight, we put it to rest. Two players from two eras have been compared over the past few years.

At one point, there was no debate from the masses who the greatest NBA player of all-time was.  Then along came LeBron James.  He became the face of the NBA and seemed to be a staple in the NBA Finals for almost a decade. But how do you quantify greatness from two different eras?  Jordan played in the 90's when things were much more aggressive than they are now.  LeBron is currently playing in an era where free agency changes the balance of power in the league each season.  So, there is a lot that has to be considered when having the conversation.  Is it the number of championship rings?  The number of MVPs?  The number of career points scored?

We've all dated and been through bad relationships.  We put in the time, effort and money into someone who just wasn't for us for whatever reason.  In the end, we usually have nothing to show for it.  If there were only a such thing known as relationship reparations.  Oh, well.  Since you can't get those then I guess you'll have to find other ways to get satisfaction after a break up.  On tonight's show, we'll discuss all things relationship as I probe your mind with some of the following questions: Do you get more satisfaction by improving your life after the break up or by your ex's life getting worse?How do you get over bad break-ups?Do some people treat child support as a form of reparation? We'll kick around those topics and more on the Talk 2 Q Radio Show!  "No experts.  Just opinions." The call-in number is (516) 595-8306.

(inhales deeply) It's so good to be back on the airwaves!  I want to welcome all of you to the relaunching of the Talk 2 Q Radio Show.  This brief podcast will give you some insight into the show if you're new to it and it will refresh the memories of the loyal listeners of days past. I decided to restart the show because the fire still burns for me.  There's so much to talk about these days and some things just need to be said.  I kind of wish that I could have gotten in on the Gayle King or Super Bowl Halftime Butt-Shaking discussions from a week ago.  But, all of us who watch the news daily know that there's something crazy happening on a daily basis worth discussing.  So, the show will never be at a lost for topics. The show will not air on a weekly basis like I did once before.  It will air on an as-needed basis which simply means that if there's something I really want to discuss then I'll schedule a show for it.   Enjoy this introduction and I'll see you on 2/20/20 at 8 PM Central Time for the real thing!   Peace out! -Q www.Talk2Q.com

Recently, rapper/actor, T.I. stated on a podcast that he is very involved in his daughter, Deyjah's, life. Some will say too involved. T.I. said that he has attended his daughter's annual visits to the gynecologist to check and make sure that her hymen is intact. That's right. Tip wants to know if his daughter is still a virgin or not. I'm joined by Tawana from the Ladies Night Podcast and a Show Legend the Talk 2 Q Radio Show, Buck. They'll give their opinions on just how far parents should dip into their kid's privacy. Wait. Let me rephrase that: we'll discuss to what extent should a parent go to try and protect their child.

A young man in Iowa decided to have a little fun and maybe make a few bucks in the process. He held up a sign asking for more beer money during a pregame show on ESPN. Before he knew it, thousands of dollars were pouring into his account. Unlike 99% of the people in this country, this guy decided to donate his money to a children's hospital in Iowa. (insert plot twist) However, a very thorough reporter from the Des Moines Register newspaper decided to dig into the man's history. Crystal Hickerson and I discuss what was found and how social media can make you and break you in a 72 hour timespan! We'll also talk about Trump and his pending impeachment.

This podcast is part three of three in which we discuss the following topics: The tragic El Paso Shooting, sports "journalist", Jason Whitlock, and his hate for all things Lebron James, and we'll talk a reparations bill being passed for gay married couples. In part three of this three-part series, Crystal Hickerson and I discuss something that I was unaware of until I stumbled across an article over the weekend. Gay married couples are entitled to a $67m pot that allows for them to receive tax credits. The couples who were legally married in their states, but unable to file as a married couple on federal tax returns has some cash coming their way. What does this mean for others (I'm talking about black people here!) who have been waiting for "credits" for what they've suffered from at the hands of the U.S.?

This podcast is part two of three in which we discuss the following topics: The tragic El Paso Shooting, sports "journalist", Jason Whitlock, and his hate for all things Lebron James, and we'll talk a reparations bill being passed for gay married couples. In part two of this three-part series, Crystal Hickerson and I discuss an ongoing mess between TV talking head, Jason Whitlock's and his hatefest with NBA all-star, Lebron James. Whitlock criticizes Lebron as a player, which is part of his job as a sports media type. But, does he go too far when he criticizes Lebron as a parent?

In part one of this three-part series, Crystal Hickerson and I discuss yet another mass shooting in the U.S. There have been approximately 250 so far this year, if my facts serve me right. People will cry. People will protest. People will hashtag. And nothing will be done. Is there anything the citizens can do to stop this vicious cycle?

This podcast is part three of three in which we discuss the following topics: #MeToo & Politics, Hollywood Movie Remakes, and Race Swapping Characters in Movies. In part three of this three-part series, Crystal Hickerson, Buck and I discuss why Hollywood doesn't see anything wrong with taking a character that is traditionally of one race and changing them to another race. For example: The Little Mermaid is now black instead of white. The character, Bane, from the "Dark Knight" movie is white instead of Latino. I give numerous examples of this in the podcast. How do you feel about Hollywood "getting away from the original script" and painting things the way they want? Listen to the discussion here on the T2Q Podcast! "Still no experts.

This podcast is part two of three in which we discuss the following topics: #MeToo & Politics, Hollywood Movie Remakes, and Race Swapping Characters in Movies. In part two of this three-part series, Crystal Hickerson, Buck and I discuss why Hollywood seems fascinated with remaking movies instead of creating new ones. Do we need a new "Lion King"? Should we have yet another "Batman" remake? Is it lazy on the part of Hollywood to start over instead of just creating something new? Listen to the discussion here on the T2Q Podcast!

This podcast is part one of three in which we discuss the following topics: #MeToo & Politics, Hollywood Movie Remakes, and Race Swapping Characters in Movies. In part one of this three-part series, Crystal Hickerson and I discuss a situation brewing in my home state of Mississippi. A candidate for governor named Robert Foster refused to allow a female journalist to accompany him on a campaign trip without a male counterpart. He said that he's a married man and wouldn't be comfortable in traveling alone with a woman without his wife being present. He has been accused of being sexist for seeing the journalist as a woman first and a professional second. Was he simply trying to protect himself from a potential scandal or did he go too far in relegating her to a thirsty woman looking to disrupt his home life and career?

Does it bother you to have people draw assumptions of you? If you read enough social media, then you will think that the average person couldn't care less what a person thinks of them. Society teaches us that we should only focus on self and not what everyone else may perceive. But, is that smart? Can it help you or hurt you in the long run? Is it situational? We'll discuss how it can impact our life and/or career. That and more as the Talk 2 Q Radio Show! "No experts. Just opinions."

"I have lived a life that's beyond 28," Mabry said. "The average 28 year old hasn't lived close to how much I've been through." Growing up without a model for mainstream success, Tommie Mabry turned to crime and the street for his examples of living. He was expelled from multiple schools before the age of 12. He was getting his first tattoos and serving jail time by the age of 12. How did he go from being a bad example as a youth to becoming a role model for today's youths? I'll discuss that with him and more on the Talk 2 Q Radio Show! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/t2q/support

Originally aired May 2017. Things have changed and guys are opting out of marriage... Divorce rates are soaring and more people appear to be shacking up because of it. But, if you ask the average guy, there's just not a lot of incentive to get married these days. Especially since marriage appears to only be temporary these days. Why is that? Why are men deciding that they're completely okay, more than ever, to cohabitate or just live that single life until the end of time? We'll discuss it on tonight's show. Also on T2Q, do you have to adopt habits of your spouse after you start living together? These things and more on the Talk 2 Q Radio Show! "No experts.

It's me and the award-winning author in a 1-on-1 conversation! I enjoyed my conversation with Ms. Victoria Bolton about her Rude Boy trilogy of books and you will, too! The Pacific Book award winner gives the listeners insight on the characters and story lines in her books. We discuss her idea to write the books and some of the work involved in self-publishing. Here's Victoria in her own words: "I am the author of the Rude Boy USA Series, the first installment which was published in December 2015. The positive response to the series from readers all over the world has been an honor. I’m looking forward to bringing you new stories in the future. I am a single gal who writes novels and works during the day for little money. If you would have told me that I would be doing this when I was younger, I would have said that you were crazy. When I was a little girl, I wanted to be married with three kids, own a cat, be a nurse and a astronaut but that did not come true. I used to wear glasses and I freak out at the sight of too much blood. The writing part is cool and very rewarding. It has changed my life for the better and for that I am forever grateful."

Does this power play guarantee a quick route to an engagement ring? I read an article about a woman who was sick of waiting on guys to marry her. She would date a guy and he would string her along for months only to move on elsewhere. So, she decided that she would no longer be any man's "girlfriend". She came up with the idea that she would continue to date whomever she wanted until one of them decided to propose to her. She was honest in letting each guy know that she had multiple suitors and that once one of them proposed, she would dismiss the others. Also, we'll talk about something that has escaped me for the last couple of decades: stress cards in the military. What is a stress card? Trust me.

How can a book change the way you look at the world? On this podcast, I have a 1-on-1 discussion with blogger and author, Jamell Crouthers. We discuss a few things on the show, but mostly about his view of the world and how he hopes to influence change. His book, The World We Live In: A Poetry Book on Societal Issues, looks to do just that! Available now on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other locations, this book focuses on fictional characters and chronicles their life experiences. Each person details an experience that changed and impacted them in ways they never considered. There are only names and no race or ethnicity mentioned in this book. The reason being that Jamell wants the readers to understand and relate to their experiences as human beings.
