Ugly Truth Pretty Lies Podcast

We skipped a podcast back when Kanye was wilding out but we'll get another chance at that surely. But now we have #WAP to deal with. Just us guys including guest #MarcoDean cover our thoughts on Riots in #Chicago, The murder of #FBGDuck, #CardiB and #MegTheStallion's wet privates, and the election now that #Kamala has been announced to be #VicePresident.

This quick episode extra from the week of July 21st had us giving thought on Nick Cannon's statements about Jewish and White People, How his ownership or lack there of effects his narrative, and somehow we end up with who we would take; Eartha Kitt or Grace Jones! Smh. 

The Matriarchy has arrived. No seriously #jadapinkett and #GhislaineMaxwell repped for last weeks non-sense. We recorded before this the day before the #entanglement admission so we have a interesting perspective without confirmations. Who's guessed right?!? Also #50cent and #TI comparisons come up with a little #trump support comes in too.

We talk about all the last weeks BS: Cam Newton being done wrong by the NFL, Terry Crews claiming that blacks want to be superior to whites, the culture of canceling people, blackface vs. whiteface and Dr Dre's prenup issues gets us heated!

Let's just say this conversation was "very spirited". Mostly centering around the idea that #BlackOnBlackCrime is or isn't comparable to police killing unarmed blacks. We also talk about #cancelculture, #Jcole vs #NoName and more.

Before we talk about the finale of #InsecureHBO we talk about more of issues plaguing America these days. Players in the NBA are fighting of whether or not to start season, blacks are being hanged in different states, and an Atlanta cop shot another unarmed black man. 

We did a podcast a week ago but didnt drop it due to the ever changing events. But now here it is. Looting, Racism, Trump, Etc... All that is beautiful about America!

Seems like Instagram has become urban entertainment lately and #boosie has become a top show. After all his antics we now see him on the cancelation block for saying he paid for sexual activities on his son. #JillScott and #ErykahBadu had a "battle" on IG and we have thoughts. Also in real life... a black man was killed while jogging through a white neighborhood.

Its time for UTPLPodcast to talk normal again! Thats what DJ Khaled wanted when a IG model tried to kill his marriage by twerking on his live. So we ponder cheating and what fault women have in it. We talk about the wearing mask and the security guard that was killed for trying to enforce new standards in Flint MI. And also we talk on P Diddy saying blacks should hold their votes for ransom.

Still journalling our dealings and feeling on the pandemic of 2020! Mayor of #Chicago #LoriLightfoot is flexing all her muscle to push us into #socialdistancing Also we speak on the hip hop battles that are entertaining us on Instagram. Should they be monetized by the artist and how? We also use #FloydMayweather's daughter YaYa and her arrest for #stabbing her boyfriend's (rapper #NBAYoungboy) child's mother as an example of how you deal with #domesticviolence with your young adult daughters. 

This was the first attempt at recording via internet from our homes. If we had an episode without talking about covid19 we would be geniuses... but were not. A nurse went viral for quitting her job and a the guys here have some issues with it. There are a myths about clearing up corona and fears about how you get it that we discuss. And we end with our Netflix picks.. thats about it!

COVID19, Omari Hardi, Andrew Gallium, Lil Boosie. Yeah, all that is somehow connected on this episode. 

Corona this Corona that! What else? But of course its getting realer by the week. So are these the last days or not? Or... if not, how do we deal with possible total lock down? And when its all said and done, who's fault is this and will this become the new norm?

One of our more politically charged episodes gets us in to the #CORONAVIRUS PANIC.   AND.... the #JoeBiden panic as well.

Have you heard of OnlyFans? Yeah? You nasty! But anyway. Come to find out amateur porn Is paying hundreds of thousands of dollars... And we're hating! Rapper Meg the Stallion (which is a male horse btw) is not so happy with her financial status though. We take our years of experi... no... years of watching the music industry and break down her contractual issues. And surely there are reasons to be canceled in and between those convo's we're sure. 

Boxer Deontay Wilder had a hard time in the ring this past weekend. A lot of feelings came out after his loss. But right before we recorded, Comedian Deon Cole tried to defend hisself against social media calling gay for wearing a bell bottom Gucci suit to an award show. We have thoughts.

All star weekend in Chicago brought us lots of antics and #Common rapping to some people's delight and other's dismay. Also we got a whole lot of Chances... meaning Chance the rapper and his brother. And of course we got #DWade. His announce his child's new name and also ruined the dunk contest. Plus he wore a strange earing.. but anyway... check that and much more. 

We're supposed to be celebrating our 100th episode, but instead we end up arguing about black men vs black women again! 1 of us believes black women don't need protection and 2 of us think 1 of us is crazy! SMH. But first... strippers falling from the sky, Monique proving herself wrong and more! 

You'll figure out what F.U.B. stands for in a few minutes as we get into the #GayleKing interview about #KobeBryant's 2003 rape. Superbowl strippers getting flew'd out. Kapernick and Monique still begging for sympathy. Then we end with a little bit of impeachment talk.

Part 2 of episode 98 moves from Kobe's tragic death to possibly our own... #Coronavirus is being  regarded as a possible #pandemic and we don't know much.  Then #TerryCrews puts a ... foot... in his mouth again while speaking about #GabrielleUnion's dealing with #AmericasGotTalent. Part 3 coming as well. 

RIP KOBE, GIGI, and the other passengers that passed. The aftermath has brought forth a lot of thoughts and reactions. Here we cover our feelings, fatherhood, social media, celebrities, whats to come, media, rape allegations. PT 2 coming soon.

We notice a lot of Bad Behavior being rewarded this past week. Harry and Meghan Markel renounced their throne, AB (Former NFL player) decided to lose his mind, Lori Harvey (Steve Harvey's daughter) showed us how to think like a man for real as she continues to date with a purpose. And somewhere between all that ... we found things to talk about!

Part 2 of this episode (with guest Anthony) starts with the how we treat different skin tones in the Black community. Singer Ari Lennox had a lot to say about this after being insulted online. We don't stay on her long though because we quickly get heated talking about the mistreatment of black men and women by each other and where it stems from! 

Part 1 of this episode starts with a story from Ava London about a friend's dealings with a man with a "small package". This leads us into a convo about the importance of a man's package, how a man knows the "worth" of his package, and somehow Mr. Bodacious (lol) gets into the episode there! Following that we go deeper into the subject of young women being target by men like Adrien Broner (he didn't know) and how men become attracted to younger women. This gets a little hot! Part 2 gets Hotter tho!

Over the past week we've seen Oprah announce plans to topple another black man (Russell Simmons) with a documentary alleging sexual abuse. We've seen mother Jasamine Headley receive 625K from New York police for snatching her baby out of her arms last year. Diddy and Jay Z turning 50 and still partying better than us.  And we discuss the a recent online post that shows "black boys" being told they can be princesses while wearing dresses. Conspiracy? lol! We also sneak a Queen and Slim movie review in. 

Long episode alert! Lizzo and the fat shaming she endured, Steve Harvey flubbing again, more judging women at pageants, Mick Vick's indiscretions, Eminem and Nick Cannon both trash, a reporter gets her ass slapped, and host Tie gets touched about people touching her!

Part 2 of Episode we focus on Kim Kardashian's ability to rescue BLACK people from slavery.... I mean prison. From Porn to Prison.

(Full Audio) This week Kapernick was "Kappin" and we are conflicted. Was the NFL up to tricks or is Kap using race issues to further his career of being a professional Martyr. Kim K is saving black men is saving black men (except for Kanye) at an alarming rate and we want to know how. Monique is still not cracking any joke while suing Netflix. And dudes are out here with Flesh-Lights. We bringing the CONTENT you need this week lol! 

Trending topics move fast so we're a little late to on the whole TI / Hymen debacle... but here it is anyway. A week ago the cast and a couple guest ladies talk about hymen, parenting, our own first time stories and a bunch of other problematic "Ugly Truths"

After Byron Allen's interview about his lawsuit with Comcast and Eddie Murphy's Dolemite movie... it seems like there is a lot of inspirational information flying around. We cover that... and then we play Devils Advocate about it all as well.

Part 1 we cover police brutality 101 for black boys according to Bernie Sanders. That leads us into a lot of topics regarding the validity of democracy and how capitalism affects it. That capitalism leads us into part 2 that cover Byron Allen and a bit more.

Kanye West, Amanda Seales, Tank, and Lisa Raye all have something to say. And its all about their EGO. Come to find out we all have ego's including one member of our podcast! Let's talk about all them plus Lo wants to know about dirty mackin' your dead friends wife! Even that is egotistical!

Off duty cop Amber Guyger killed Both Jean in his apt and was found guilty. Joshua Brown was killed after taking the stand as a witness against Amber Guyger. Let the conspiracy theories fly! Some how this leads us to Jason Weaver's Lion King income and who in our top 50 rapper list! 

Time to get back consistent with the episodes. Just in time for the T's! Dave Chappelle shined a light on a lot things going on in society. Should he be canceled? Kevin Hart can't get right. Lil Nas X and Malik Yoba had some things to tell us as well. Let's see if we can get canceled too!! Cast: Kwak, Justen, Alias Ava London (lol)

Don't call it a comeback! Off hiatus for one episode to get into this chicken sandwi.... nah we're not doing that. We are talking about all matters concerning Jay Z and Kapernick's differences regarding the NFL. Is Jay wrong? Do we care if Kap has a job? Do we trust Jay? Does Jay have to ask permission? Is Jermaine Dupri dumb? Can I get my chicken sandwich on a biscuit? I mean... we go deep!

Summer 2019 is for the city girls! Although the podcast is on hiatus we're dropping this episode that is part of the hours of convo after the podcast that we usually don't publish! Kwaku, Yogi, Tie, and guest Joi talk that relationship talk again! 

People are licking Ice Cream... and NBA owners! We talk about estimated 4 billion dollars of NBA contracts traded this last week and the insanity of the ice cream challenge. Among other subjects we speak on Common Sense's new book about Love Addiction and how we relate! Honestly... It was far more chaotic than that just read though!

Things go off the rails as we judge Nipsey Hussle's mother and her level of spirituality after we first tackle the subject of polyamorous relationships (aka bust downs). Part one ends with a recap of last weeks BET awards and some thoughts about female rappers taking over and what type of affect it has on the culture!

One of our son's make a surprise drop in and we get some lessons about his ministry, aspirations, morals, and life goals. He receives some realities about our worldliness, wasted potential, weak flesh, and  failures. It was a great exchange. 

Part one of this episode begins (and continues) with Kwaku being too close to the mic and smacking the whole time! (pause)  Other than that we cover OJ and his twitter aspirations, Ms. Brady getting over by having a maid while being a house wife, the inner workings of capitalism and we end with Ava London's son joining us for part 2 to talk about his young college life and his spirituality, plus when Ava is going to start where in church hats. 

On this episode we start off with a recap of Netflix show Black Mirror and the crazy first episode of season 5. We won't be playing video games anymore for the record. While on the Netflix subject we cover a bit about "When they see us". We spend some time talking about guy trips vs girl trips and why guys spend their time chasing women the whole time. Kevin Durant's injuries and legacy along with the sports fan mentality about it comes up. And then there is Drake.

Just listen and pray for us smh

Quick little take on black men ideals of dating white women.  Check the full episode to hear the full context of this and other parts of the conversation. 

On this episode Kwak and Justen go in on a few topics such as: Common talks being “touched”, Black Billinoinaire pays tutions, Black Billionaire marries white woman, Interacial Dating Thoughts, Trans Community takeover, How & Who we learn to be attracted to, New Abortion Laws Politics: Trump and our views on immigration, & More

This weeks big news was Ayesha Curry's statements about her marriage and her desire for outside attention.  We have some interesting takes on this matter including jealousy, insecurity, mother in laws, and more.  Also Facebook decided to ban the honorable minister Louis Farrakhan and not the our podcast. We dodged a bullet. 

The homie Marco Dean joins us to follow up the convo about "OG's" checking the youngsters when they're out of line! But... How do you do it with out looking like another fool in the age of social media?

Social Media has a right way to be used and a wrong way. In today's day and age people are using it to get the most attention possible by any means. Kodak Black, TI, The Game, Boosie BadAss, Gabriel Union and Dwayne Wade, and also UTPL Podcast are all here to be judged on this episode. And of course there is other randomness!

Better late than ever. This is the last half of our most hated episode to date. We continue our Nipsey and 2pac debate along with our feelings about black on black violence. The subject of reparations gets us a little heated. We also deal with the topic of "being woke" and also discuss the new movie "US". 

This episode comes on the heels on the murder of Hip Hop and Business Man Nipsey Hussle. His senseless murder has sparked fears, outrage, and questions about the event and the reasons why. Also we juxtapose the movie "Us" to what we are dealing with in real life. We have a heated convo about it all.

Cardi B drugs men and rob them, Jussie is untouchable, Friends help friends cheat, and men are stupid (as usual). Thats it, thats all.
