The Tequila Tales Unleashed is a highly engaging and incredibly entertaining discussion on all things in love and relationships. The motto is "with love we ALL have a story to tell", and we encourage those stories with a little alcohol. Join us for candid conversations that occasionally go off the r…
There was a time when men had other children and families without having to apologize to their wives and significant others on Beyonce's internet. Tristen Thompson makes it clear that time has come and gone. The vax vs. anti-vax conversation is reaching new heights and Joe Rogan is leading the charge. How free is free speech when Karen's are threatening to shoot up school boards? Hypothetically of course. Are you giving your man your whole paycheck and getting an "allowance" in return? All of this and so much more on this episode. The Team is back for 2022 with all of the shenanigans. Indulge!
The Team is back and boy do we have updates! We talk about our #Growth during the hiatus and whether or not we've grown as much as Common's list of ex-girlfriends or Tristan Thompson's number of L's. Also, anyone ever heard of NFTs? Sounds familiar but doesn't ring a bell. *insert sarcasm here* Either way, "Pandemic O" breaks down what it is and why you absolutely don't want to be left behind. And although we continue to progress as a society, for some reason little boys having kitchen sets is why we can't rise up as a people. We discuss all things, Will, Jada, and King Richard (and that petition). Join us! So glad to be back! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
Well, there you have it folks. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris won the Presidential election and the Team got the results hours before recording. 45 is still refusing to concede but we're going to keep moving this train along because...who is dude? Somebody come get ya mans. We jumped right into how this changes the country, the black girl magic that keeps saving you mortals from imminent doom, and whether or not Ice Cube just needs to go ahead and eat crow. After a small hiatus, thanks for sticking with us guys. Enjoy! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
Whether you are into chicken and waffles or sweet potato pie, the next Verzuz is about to be lit! The Team unpacks Patti LaBelle and Gladys Knight going head to head, Trollmar's favorite family ending after 20 seasons, and Tyler Perry shooting 19 episodes of 'Bruh' in just four days. Bruh. We also discuss the greatness that is Chadwick Boseman and how he was taken far too soon. Also, did you know being OBSESSED with a celebrity has an official name? Listeners, meet Parasocial Relationship. Parasocial Relationship, meet our listeners. Enjoy the foolery. Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
Somehow we've made it through another week of this death spiral we call a pandemic. However, the T3 Team did not shy away from bringing the energy on the headlining news! Somehow Cardi B shocked us all *gasp* with a video we've kind of already seen before but we're definitely madder now. More mad? *shrugs* And if that wasn't enough of a shocker, Joe "You Ain't Black" Biden hit us with his VP running mate, Senator Kamala Harris. The woke warriors are not too thrilled about this choice so we had to unpack it! Also, have you heard of "Wokefishing"? Well, it's real. Indulge. (Sidenote - Have you ever thought about multiple streams of income?) Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
#DirtyFamilies and #StinkyKids! The T3 Team somehow began this discussion on whether or not cleanliness is a luxury. With pheromones being a real thing when it comes to attraction, are all the soaps, perfumes, and lotions disrupting the human mating process? We discuss exchanging your "body count list", the "hoe phase", conspiracy theories, and the apparent deadbeat parents not getting a stimulus check. We also offer tips to those quarantining #SoloDolo and how to get through the isolation without losing connection. Indulge! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
KEEP YOUR DISTANCE! GIVE ME SIX FEET! Matter fact, how about you just stay over there. And that’s what we did! We are all adapting the best we can to our current global circumstance so the Unleashed Team was responsible this past week and observed “social distancing”. For the first time EVER we recorded the ENTIRE podcast from FOUR DIFFERENT LOCATIONS! If you have some time on your hands (that was a joke, we KNOW you have time), grab a drink and let’s have a conversation. DISCLAIMER: If at any point our words, our views, or our beliefs appear cavalier, DEFINITELY understand that we’re probably scared shitless just as much as you and we’re coping so we can enjoy ourselves before the end of the world. Topic: Too Much Togetherness All your favorites have the SICKNESS! Coronavirus is out here snatching edges but if Tom Hanks doesn't come out victorious, KC Alana is exiting Earth stage left. The Team reconvened this week for a special episode full of social distancing, some old shit (see: Kimye/Taylor beef), and how too much togetherness can effect what would normally be successful relationships. Tune in and join the conversation!
It’s 2020 and many are ready for new beginnings. People are ready to pull back the curtains to see the truth of matters. It’s time to be real. According to Brittney however, if you ever desire to define the true mark of a man, all you need is TWO PAY PERIODS. In this episode, the team discusses Clout Chasing and the manipulative moves that celebrities make to conjure controversy. Our resident and absolute favorite troll, Omar, was unfortunately not with us. However, in his absence, we were graced with an awesome listener, supporter, and friend of The Tequila Tales; Mr. Daniel Doke! Let’s start this New Year off with a blast! Listen then Share!
Have you ever been on a "PUMPING" elevator? Well, Brittney has, and "Trollmar" was performing at PEAK level on this one. Doing it for the culture comes with heavy responsibility. While we love and take pride in our Blackness, there are occasions that put us in awkward circumstances. Brittney and Kacey share two separate elevator scenarios that left them a little uneasy. The team addressed Ja Rule's misunderstanding of the origin and etymology of the N-Word (while also addressing whether he had more crossover hits than 50 Cent). Are Black people expected to appease White America’s views of what’s appropriate, or is it simply conforming to societal shifts? Britt and Isaac get taken to task over their usage of a certain word that carries offense. And of course, upon our listeners' request, we HAD to give our feedback on the fiasco that was the scheduled NFL workout with Colin Kaepernick. I hope you have some time on your hands because we went IN. We had to do this one for the culture Y’all.
You ever find yourself in a heated moment and you blurt out something you later regret? Did that something stick and you found yourself having to live up to whatever you said? Sometimes in life this happens and we find ourselves reaching for the condom bag. In this episode, T3 Unleashed shares their thoughts on the upcoming Colin Kaepernick NFL workout (recorded BEFORE the fireworks), the brush up between Lakeith Stanfield and Charlamagne Tha God, and whether unconventional relationships have higher potential for success. It’s been a few weeks and the team had MUCH to share! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
Comedy can be a double-edged sword. How far should comedians be allowed to go when it comes to controversy? Should they be the ones who can push the limits regardless? Or are some things simply off-limits? The Team digs into this conundrum while unpacking the Antonio Brown accusations (prior to the most recent revelations). Indulge! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
The Team is back this week and just in time to give us their thoughts on the Jay-Z/NFL shake-up. Returning from a short hiatus, it's only right they tackle one of the most divisive topics right now. Indulge!
In this #FlashBack episode we encounter NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. Kacey had her notes, but the team went totally rogue. They wasted no time in digging into the 2019 college admissions bribery scandal that threatened to send Lori Loughlin from the Full House to the Big House. A passionate discourse ensued on the "two Black cultures" that exist in America. The team also shared what's been occupying their time in the new segment "Heavy Rotation". If you've missed The Tequila Tales Unleashed, it ain't no problem, we've got you covered... This one long ASL. Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
If you love me then lie to me. Is it more important to be honest with your partner yet hurt them, or is it sometimes worth it to not share pain to allow your partner to have some blissful ignorance? Do you think it's a necessity to disclose the fact that you have children on a first date? In this unreleased throwback episode (#CPT), The Team discusses this and much more. Killer Mike’s new Netflix show, the Fyre Festival, and the alleged beef between Steve Harvey and Monique are a few topics that were broached. We also go on to break down the clip of #NikkiGiovanni and #JamesBaldwin and the request to be lied to in our relationships. Indulge and join the conversation! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
It’s Black History Month!!! But word on the street is, we need a “do over”. Despite all the magic and excellence, it appears our threshold for foolishness is alive and well. With so much that’s happened since the last time the team got together, they decided to scrap the love topic to and dig into some of the current events that have sent social media ablaze. Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
When is it ok to wear Black Face? (spoiler alert - NEVER) In what ways are you like a Trump supporter? Who is the superior race? The year is drawing to a close and the #T3Team decided to close it out properly. In this hodgepodge mixture of an episode Kacey decides to scrap the rundown and speak about hot topics. We learned what it takes to “motivate” Isaac. Omar gives us a history lesson on the Romanoffs. Brittney shares her thoughts on being treated like a bald headed stepchild. Kacey decides #TheKnowItAll’s opinion wasn’t sufficient and decided to offer her own #Afterthought. Sit back and enjoy our #TBT episode since it took Isaac Paul forever to get it out...........
While christening Brittney’s new crib, the Team gathered to dig into some of the best moments from the most recent live show where Omar breaks down what “20$ can get you”. We also covered the reasons why #ghosting can absolutely be necessary, whether expecting a call back is a sense of entitlement or not, and if people are just avoiding communicating in this new technological age. Also, how long do we plan to keep using “no homo” fellas? Indulge! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
With Kacey back in the driver's seat, one would think that the podcast would be less "unleashed". Well, one would be wrong! After a full showdown about purchasing big-ticket items and whether discussing it with your partner is required when you're rich AF, the Team dug into a multitude of topics. Is Amber Rose the best representative for the SlutWalk? Is ANYONE, including Joe Budden, scared of Offset and his threats? Should the person who makes the most money in the relationship be the one to make the financial decisions? Tune in and share your thoughts! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
You know what they say, “When the boss is away…” Kacey decided to live her best life in Vegas this past weekend and left her co-host Brittney at the helm of steering a conversation with “Trollmar” and “the know it all”. While she provided them all with topics to discuss, they undoubtedly veered off course and addressed the hit series Power, Kanye West’s latest antics, and the role that trauma plays in our lives. Eventually, the team got back on message and addressed the differences between like, love, and being “in love”. Omar also explained the importance of “dookie” when you’re in love (You’ve gotta hear it to get it). So get comfortable, It’s been a minute, and we went a while. -Intro to the podcast is an excerpt from The Roommates Podcast (@roommateshtx) featuring Stephan Speaks(@stephanspeaks). --Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
On #FlashBackFriday we take you back two weeks to when this podcast was recorded (folks been busy) and the T3 Team decided to have a fireworks show in August. Tempers flared out the gates when the topic of 45 was broached. And while his shenanigans kept finding their way into the discussion, the team found time to weigh in on LeBron’s recent moves, our favorite porn sites, and how we set priorities inside our relationships. The team hadn’t been together in a while, and had a LOT to get off their chests. We apologize in advance… Enjoy at your own risk. Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
Recorded before the TMZ and Charlamagne tha God interviews, the Team unpacks the reintroduction (and perhaps unraveling) of Kanye West. KC had an ENTIRE list of things to cover but let’s just say Ye controlled the narrative, as usual. While some may agree that it’s time to shake up the status quo, many of you who haven’t given up altogether are still screaming WAKE UP MR. WEST! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
Don't come for my wife! This week DJ Envy of The Breakfast Club flexed his muscles about the snide comment that came from Desus and Mero. The T3 Team obviously had to weigh in on it. We also covered cultural appropriation and why Bruno Mars ain't on that. The Delegation as spoken! But there are definitely some people on that train and it's time we got to the bottom of it. Tune in!
This week, our listeners have failed us. The #JoeBuddenPodcast won best #podcast at the BET Social Awards, and we are NONE too pleased! But that doesn't mean a riveting discussion didn't ensue, we still love us for real. The Team covers the Martin reboot, the awesomeness that is Black Panther (no spoilers...yet), and apparently that Mother Theresa's name wasn't dope enough to begin with. This episode is also a follow up to our 5 Year Anniversary of The Tequila Tales live show! Check out some of the highlights and how the team answered some of the most thought-provoking questions of the evening. Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
Season TWO kicks off with The Team giving us a rundown of what we missed during the break, and oh, what a spirited discussion it was! We give our thoughts on JT's Super Bowl Halftime performance, why Monique is NOT the poster child for black women's income disparity, and we dig into whether or not Aziz Ansari is lowkey on some creep shit. I love us FOR REAL. Tune In! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
In this #FBF episode taped prior to Christmas, The Team takes on popular topics of the season. For some, the holidays weren't all romance, glamour and glitz. It can be a reminder of your "singleness" and what that can mean for you. BUT now that the holidays are behind us, it's a great time for reflection and starting anew! So indulge while we cover some of the topics that ended 2017 such as Keaton Jones and his racist parents, the nail-biting Alabama Senate race and everything in between! (Also, Brittney is NOW the Head of HR) #WeBack
I'm not racist! If you're the white guy in the Joyner Lucas video though....dude, you might be. The Team tackles the very popular viral video, the Flynn Russia probe (is it even still happening?), Mariah Carey's new gig, and Russell Simmons' becoming the Harvey Weinstein of hip hop. We also talk about connecting in relationships. Are we connecting at all or we going through the motions to have companionship? So many caveats, so little time! As a bonus, Isaac, Britt, and Omar share their most sexy spontaneous stories! You don’t wanna miss it. Connect with us this week. Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
This week the Team COMPLETELY disagrees on whether or not Justin Timberlake is an ally of the black delegation and if Liangelo Ball deserves a much harsher punishment than being suspended from basketball games. We also discuss why Al Franken and Roy Moore's crimes are not one in the same. Have you heard of the "new" dating trend called "Stashing"? Well, we have, and we break down all the ins and outs of it. Tune in!!! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
In this week's riveting discussion, The Team determines if Blake Shelton is, in fact, the "sexiest man alive", if Meek Mill is worth fighting for fr fr, and if Get Out is getting fake Golden Globe outrage. In addition to all of that, we take on 'Fake Love'. If you fall out of love with someone, was it love at all? Can we honestly understand the difference between love and infatuation? Are the likes on social media legitimate love or a simple acknowledgment? Join the conversation! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
This week The Team determines if it's time to make amends with Chrisette Michele, if Meek Mill is being held back by "the man", and if Will and Jada are going to snatch Tyrese's edges back to unemployment. We also cover the pros and cons of showing your "representative" when you start seeing someone and whether or not it's best to be transparent from jump. Indulge! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
Strippers striking, inmates running the prisons, Ellen DeGeneres a misogynist??? Oh my! The Team didn’t officially get into the Halloween spirit this year but the topics they unpacked were definitely cringeworthy. In addition to what’s been in the news, we also covered fighting in relationships. How much is too much? Do you know any couples who never fight? Also, let us break down the best way to throw these metaphorical hands and still be successful in your love life. Enjoy! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
No one expected to talk about landing strips as much as we did, but alas, it happened anyway. This week the Team tackles how relationship insecurities can interfere with friendships and whether or not men get more satisfaction from their closes friendships with other men. As a special treat, our very own Omar dropped a new #BlackFact on us. We also discuss Colin Kaepernick's lawsuit with the NFL, Gabrielle Union's new book "We're Gonna Need More Wine", Kevin Hart capitalizing on his infidelity, and of course the royal wedding of Gucci and Keyshia. Indulge! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
As it turns out two time zones weren’t enough to stop the team from weighing in on some of the top headlines. It may sound a little scattered, but hey, there’s been a LOT going on. Indulge. Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
When Brittney's away, the boys will play. This week the team took advantage of being a little shorthanded by giving the male perspective on a host of topics including sex workers, female comedians, men sharing emotions, and of course CHEATING. #Trollmar also gives HIS dating advice to the listener who wrote in a few weeks ago. (This was recorded prior to our time off, so bare with us on some outdated aspects) Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
After a summer hiatus full of vacations, weddings, and sunshine, the Team is back to talk about when it's time to Slow Your "Role"! What constitutes doing too much or is there such thing? Is asking for phone passwords or moving in together too much for non-married couples? The Team also takes on Usher's accuser, North Korea, Kylie Jenner's billion-dollar "genius" enterprise, and Rihanna's new thickness. Stay tuned for the blooper reel at the end! (This was recorded prior to our time off, so bare with us on some outdated aspects) Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
Is Colin Kaepernick actually being blackballed or are team owners legitimately avoiding the distraction? Could the show 'Confederate' low-key be off the chain and Black Twitter is overreacting? The Team addresses the latest news stories while digging into Code Switching, the use of one accent or dialect over another in certain scenarios. Could it be considered being fake or living a double life? Have you ever been one person with your crew and someone else completely with your partner? Dig in and let us know if you've ever had to code switch! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
Is this new guy a sweet dream or beautiful nightmare? The T3 Team tackles the difficulties of finding someone who has everything you're looking for but with one MAJOR faux pas!

Kelly's discretions, Usher and STD disclosures, and why America has an intense obsession with OJ Simpson. Indulge. Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ

Enjoy! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
#NickiMinaj didn't win Best Hip Hop Female Artist at the #BETAwards but does that diminish all of her other accomplishments? Should she still be able to shout them from the mountain top for the world to hear? The T3 Team takes on #KeepingScore in relationships. If you think of your relationship as a bank, how are the deposits and withdrawals being measured from each person? As an added bonus, we look at some of the songs that are very questionable but incredibly entertaining! Join us for this week's #podcast episode. Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
This week the crew tackles the numerous double standards between women and men in relationships. LeBron James, The NBA Championship, and GSW’s place among the great teams in NBA history.

Lowkey, long overall shorts in the 90s were the original male rompers and no one wants to call it out!

Join us! Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ
No one takes an L quite like Shad Moss. The Team weeds through the #BowWowChallenge and whether or not we ALL are technically "doing it for the Gram". The highlight of the episode comes with the "Dear White People" relationship recap. Can you be woke AND date interracially? Can you be a straight black man AND have quality platonic relationships with gay men? Can you grow up in on the south side of Chicago AND want to elevate politically in non-conventional ways? On this episode, the Team goes IN! Check it. Soundtrack Music by Sizwe the DJ

If you are invited to a wedding does it mean you’re “more than friends”? If you give her a key to your place does that mean you’re exclusive? If you introduce them to your parents does that mean it’s serious? This week the T3 Team talks about all kinds of mixed signals. Like whether Kendrick Lamar was dissin Big Sean.
