Kiki is recording on fumes in the middle of moving week, surrounded by boxes, broken nails, damaged furniture, and enough bickering to make her wonder whether the stress is coming from the move or Mercury being in Gatorade again.She shares the chaotic reality of combining households with her man that's not her man, why his approach to the homebuying process has left her feeling out of the loop, and how to support a partner who is stressed without sounding controlling or turning into their unpaid project manager.Kiki also breaks down how Mercury retrograde may be affecting communication, relationships, collaborations, and major life transitions, plus what everyone should watch for during the post-retrograde shadow period. Then, she opens up a conversation about breakups, closure, ghosting, and whether every relationship deserves an exit interview.Production, tap in with your advice, and get ready for Sip & Spill, the new segment where listeners can call the Nightcap Number with anonymous confessions, questions, and stories before drunk-texting their ex.Go to brooklynbedding.com and use my promo code COCKTALESPOD at checkout to get 30% offsitewide during the {{2026 PROMOTION BELOW}}.VB Health- Try SOAKING WETGet 10% off SOAKING WET from VB Health with code COCKTALES visit SOAKINGWET.COM todayContact us!Advice: advice@cocktalespod.comCockTales: cocktales@cocktalespod.comNEW SEGMENTSIP & SPILL- Before you drunk-text your ex, call your best friend for the fourth time, or send a voice note you'll regret by sunrise… call the Nightcap Number and leave us a message.Confessions, questions, dilemmas, and stories—we want to hear it all.Sip responsibly.

Most of us underestimate how a small shift in mindset and financial literacy can turn a modest sum into lasting generational wealth — and why many fail to see that potential due to habits and misconceptions.In this eye-opening episode, SomeGuy125 and Kiki explore how a million dollars, if managed correctly, can be the foundation for future prosperity. They dissect the true meaning of wealth, emphasizing that it's not just about the number in your bank account but about investments, mindset, and long-term planning. Whether passing down property, leveraging passive income, or simply adjusting how you think about money, they reveal simple yet powerful strategies that work no matter your starting point.You'll discover:Why a million dollars isn't "wealth" without financial literacy and a plan to grow itHow passive income from real estate can create stability and freedomSurprising insights on how mindset, long-term investments, and delayed gratification build true wealthPractical tips like big-bulk shopping, adjusting insurance deductibles, and starting small to foster growthWhy most wealth-building advice fails if you're only focused on quick wins instead of sustainable habitsThis episode matters because the biggest threat to building wealth isn't income — it's mindset. Without the right financial education and disciplined habits, even substantial sums can slip away fast. But with awareness and smart action, anyone can rewrite their financial story, from struggling to stable, from short-term hustle to generational legacy.Perfect for anyone feeling stuck, unsure where to begin, or wondering how to expand their financial horizon — this is your blueprint for turning small changes into big opportunities. Whether you're new to investing, trying to break free from paycheck-to-paycheck living, or simply want a fresh perspective on wealth, these conversations offer invaluable lessons that could change your future.And with insights rooted in real-world experiences, relatable strategies, and genuine honesty, this episode is your step toward smarter money management — no matter your current circumstances.Join us as we decode wealth, dispel myths, and unlock the mindset that transforms dreams into lasting financial freedom.Why this works:This compelling episode description grabs attention with a provocative statement about mindset and wealth, then builds intrigue by promising concrete strategies and real-life examples. It targets listeners eager to improve their financial situation, emphasizing tangible outcomes over vague advice, and leaves them curious about the actionable tips covered throughout, making it irresistible to hit play.Character count: 3,990/4,000

Mostly Film – Take 238: What's NewJonathan and JP are back for List It or Nix It — Digger, Buddy, Soulm8te, and The Wrong Girls go through the gauntlet. And about that Digger trailer: Tom Cruise, a Southern accent, a pot belly, a combover, and Iñárritu calling it the culmination of Cruise's 40-year career. The Dr. Strangelove comparisons are already flying. Is this the one that gets him the Oscar, or is it too strange for its own good?In What We've Been Watching, Jonathan went deep on the Despicable Me universe (all of it, essentially), plus The Furious, Death of Robin Hood, Kiki's Delivery Service, A Goofy Movie, and Inside Out 2. JP brings Oceans 11, Send Help, The Drama, and The Furious, with House of the Dragon and Silo on the TV side.In the news: Moana opened to $43 million and it's a disaster on a $250 million budget — potentially the worst live-action Disney remake debut ever. Is that era finally over? Toy Story 5 keeps rolling toward a billion. And The Odyssey opens this Friday in IMAX — tracking for $100-120 million, which would make it Nolan's biggest opening ever. Does it have a shot at being his best film?

QTNA: Questions That Need AnswersKiki has questions…and apparently, y'all are production now, so it's time to clock in.

KIKI with DJ QuestionMark 07.11.26 | VISLA FM by VISLA

This week, Scheana is back in the studio with Kiki Monique, and there's a lot to catch up on—from Fourth of July party politics and Bravo feuds to celebrity weddings, biblical plagues, and the latest pop culture chaos. Scheana reveals why she was checking the guest list before accepting Lance Bass' party invite, and questions exactly what Lisa Vanderpump thinks she “lied” about in her book. Plus, she shares what Brock said about Tom and Victoria's relationship that apparently struck a nerve—and why the warning signs may have been there all along. Then, Scheana and Kiki unpack America's strangely anticlimactic 250th birthday and the series of weather disasters surrounding Trump's Freedom 250 celebrations that had them wondering: if we're using the religious extremists' logic, was Mother Nature trying to send a message? They also debate whether Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding was our generation's royal wedding, make the case for a Madison Square Garden ceremony, and wonder whether Blake Lively's missing invitation got lost in the mail. Kiki delivers her official report on what's worth watching, what Bravo fans should be talking about, and which stories have taken over her feed. Plus, why was Kiki left off the RHOC premiere party guest list, and what does a two-way mirror, Marilyn Monroe, and the Kennedy brothers have to do with any of this? Tune in for friendship drama, party politics, pop-culture conspiracies, and plenty of Scheananigans.

This week, Kiki is taking roll call: Production, where y'all at?From the pressure to be a “girl's girl” to the very real question of whether we need everybody to like us, Kiki gets into the complicated ways we show up for other women, and when “support” turns into blindly backing somebody who may be dead wrong.She also addresses the nosy-bitch paradox: Why do we hate when people are in our business… but suddenly know exactly who to call when we need the tea? Is being nosy actually the problem, or is it what people do with the information once they get it?Plus, Kiki shares a show update, talks about the difference between online personas and real life, answers an advice letter from a listener who feels like she has made her boyfriend her whole personality, and makes a case for maintaining your own life...even in a loving relationship.Grab your Neighborhood Watch cocktail, mind your business, or don't, and join the conversation in the comments.VB Health- Try SOAKING WETGet 10% off SOAKING WET from VB Health with code COCKTALES visit vb.health todayContact us!Advice: advice@cocktalespod.comCockTales: cocktales@cocktalespod.comYou can also leave a voicemail instead of an email for advice and cocktales!! 404-692-0039Join Patreon to help support the show! www.patreon.com/cocktalesGet Your Merch & Order Your Card Game  www.imcurioustoknow.comBali With Kiki!

In this episode, Mandii B is joined by Kiki SaidSo for a nostalgic and hilarious conversation celebrating the Pretty Ricky vs. B2K Verzuz battle, revisiting the music, memories, and cultural moments that defined an entire generation. The episode opens with reflections on the anticipation surrounding the highly discussed matchup [ 00:00 ], before the hosts pull back the curtain on the realities of content creation and the pressure of keeping audiences engaged in today's media landscape [ 02:45 ]. As the conversation unfolds, they take a trip down memory lane, sharing personal stories connected to Pretty Ricky, B2K, and the soundtrack of their teenage years [ 06:08 ]. The discussion expands into how R&B and hip-hop influenced adolescence, first crushes, dating, and early sexual exploration [ 09:06 ], while also laughing about fan fiction, celebrity obsessions, and the fantasy worlds fans created around their favorite artists [ 12:04 ]. Then they break down the Pretty Ricky vs. B2K Verzuz battle, analyzing standout performances, vocal moments, stage presence, and how each group connected with longtime fans [ 15:01 ]. They discuss the crowd's reactions, the highs and lows of the performances, and whether nostalgia ultimately outweighed execution [ 17:47 ], before reflecting on their own celebrity encounters and the realities of meeting artists they've admired for years [ 20:58 ]. The conversation continues with thoughts on the aftermath of the Verzuz battle, fan reactions across social media, and what the event revealed about the lasting influence of early-2000s R&B [ 23:48 ], wrapping up the first half with final takeaways on the battle's cultural impact [ 27:13 ]. Later in the episode, the conversation shifts after Pleasure P's viral shout-out, which sparks a broader discussion about the unexpected moments that continue to fuel nostalgia and internet conversation [ 42:41 ].

The discussion expands into the delicate balance between friendship, business, and emotional well-being in the entertainment industry [ 57:20 ][ 01:09:23 ], highlighting the challenges artists face when personal bonds intersect with professional success.

This week, we've gone a little bit off-piste from interiors as I sit down to chat to Kiki McDonough. A favourite jeweller to the royals (with Queen Camilla and the Princess of Wales regularly seen wearing her pieces), she has now worked in the industry for over 40 years. Sitting at the helm of a much-loved, globally-renowned brand, the fifth generation jeweller is renowned for her pioneering use of coloured gemstones. One of the first women to make a name for herself in the British, luxury jewellery world, Kiki has built a well-respected business on her own with the support of a great team, while juggling two sons, multiple patronages and a social life that would tire most 20-somethings. We talk about running a business and the very exciting news that she has just gained a royal warrant.

Send us Fan MailThis week on the show Bridget Barkan stops by to discuss her new single Red Carpet, touring with Scissor Sisters, prophetic dreams and more. *** “I told my friend Rod Thomas a.k.a. Bright Light Bright Light the idea for this song and he said, ‘You must do it!' The next day my horoscope literally said, ‘Roll out the red carpet, now is your time',” laughs New Yorker, multifaceted artist, powerhouse performer and certified redhead BRIDGET BARKAN about the inspiration for her new single “RED CARPET” which is released today independently.A campy, ‘70s-infused R&B funk track sprinkled with ‘80s soulful sass, “Red Carpet” serves as a defiant, high-energy theme for self-validation, artistic autonomy, and a tongue-in-cheek anthem for gingers everywhere. In the spirit of retro music, Bridget recorded old school style along with cinematic funk jazz group The Brothers Nylon and singer/songwriter Alex Cherny - one take to tape with horns, synths and background vocals from fellow NYC musician friends Tony and the Kiki, Storm Marrero and Mariela Olivo in post-production. Adding a bit of extra mojo from Morgan Wiley (Hercules and Love Affair) on piano, percussion, sounds and beats (who mixed the record as well), “Red Carpet” offers high camp while grasping tightly to a built-in pop shimmer from all the collaborative glitter.Currently co-fronting platinum-selling, international pop sensations Scissor Sisters (for whom she originally served as backup singer for brazen Ana Matronic) alongside the flashy Jake Shears, Bridget carries over that band's sparkle and drama into her own music. “I learned so much from Ana touring with them back in 2010-2013,” she says. “She's always supported me as a sister and I love her so much. I've always called her 'Minister Matronic'.”Originally inspired from a playful introduction by Jake Shears (who famously dubbed her “the hostess with the most tits”), Bridget took his words “she doesn't need a red carpet because she's already got one” and embraced the cheeky imagery, transforming it into a profound meditation on her journey as an artist. “Being in the industry my whole life and having a lot of rejection and heartbreak or even being unseen and unheard at times, I often didn't believe in myself anymore,” she confesses. “I had to take the things that I love and juice them with this humor and sass and make a mantra for myself.”A staple of the New York performance scene, Barkan's career spans film, television, theatre, burlesque, and performance art. Following her tenure as a background vocalist for the Scissor Sisters (2010–2013), she stepped into the spotlight in 2025 as a co-lead singer when the band returned from hiatus. Her recent trajectory has been meteoric, including a massive successful 2025 UK arena and US tour co-headlining with Kesha, where she commanded stages from Madison Square Garden to Glastonbury.“People often ask me why I haven't been on Broadway, which is intended as a compliment but often leaves a sour taste,” says Barkan. “After years of chasing external validation, I realized the answer is: ‘I AM Broadway.' This song is a reminder that I don't need to book a specific job to validate my existence. It is about dismantling the ‘castles of idolatry' we build around industry success and empowering ourselves to BE the thing we are searching for and make the art we want to be part of.”Barkan brings a seasoned, unapologetic perspective to her work, tackling industry ageism head-on with lines like, “I ain't no spring chicken, but I'm still finger-lickin' good.” The track acts as a “spell for unwavering confidence,” for anyone ready to stop waiting to be chosen and start defining their own success. Red Carpet is not only a personal manifesto but a tribute to her chosen family of drag performers, burlesque dancers, queer artists, and fellow creators who use their hutzpah to entertain, heal and empower.***If you would like to contact the show Dauna@betertopodcast.comFollow us on Social MediaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX0ETs2wpOHbCuhUNr0XFTw?view_as=subscriberInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomSupport the podcast here: https://www.patreon.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedom©2026 Better To...Podcast with D.

1195. This week, we talk to Dr. Maria Loconsole from the University of Padua about her research into the bouba-kiki effect, the near-universal tendency to associate round shapes with "bouba" sounds and spiky shapes with "kiki" sounds. We look at what her experiments with newly hatched chicks reveal about whether this association predates language entirely.

Paul tells the Galatians to "walk around in the Spirit" but his point is that the Spirit is more than a means to something better. The Spirit is the source itself. Walking through Galatians 5 we see a life where believers walk about unshackled, out of chaos we receive one fruit, and we are walking toward Eden. Along the way we see the sin we rarely admit: trying to "program our way out of our flesh" through accountability and discipline. But because of Christ's finished work, we don't live in chaos, fear, and self-destruction. We do not need our own self-will. We are free and even better, we are not alone. SMALL GROUP QUESTIONS Where do you, or the culture around you, hold the belief that growth is mainly self-improvement and restraint, rather than walking toward the Spirit as the source? What is your "concrete block" like Kiki the Gorilla? What is it you hold onto in anger, but in the freedom of the Spirit can lay down as a new creation? How do we see Christ's finished work walking us past Eden into a garden city, the New Heavens and New Earth--to a world being remade?

(00:00) — Welcome and origin spark: Kiki's path starts without an “aha” and a teacher's nudge changes everything.(02:24) — First shadowing, open-heart: A six-hour quadruple bypass leaves her captivated.(03:48) — Type B and present: Owning a goal without over-planning in high school.(04:29) — Balancing D2 hoops and premed: Small-school community and time management pay off.(07:19) — Burnout and a late college switch: Signing in July and embracing a non-linear path.(08:55) — Making premed work: Professors, small classes, and athlete study groups.(10:03) — The grind of student-athlete life: Exhaustion, rigid schedules, and living by the calendar.(11:38) — What gave way: Long-distance friendships and less family check-ins.(13:24) — First app cycle misses: 506 MCAT, six-week prep, content over practice, and low volunteering.(17:17) — Reapplicant moves: Earlier timing, pharmacy tech year, and next-day secondaries.(19:54) — Widening the net: Adding DO schools and securing acceptances.(20:53) — Discovering HPSP: Out-of-state sticker shock leads her to the Navy.(23:39) — Parents' buy-in and commissioning: From doubts to pride; acceptance to October commissioning.(26:16) — Military match realities: Deployment risk and the “assignment” mindset.(30:29) — Final takeaway: Keep trying—“what's meant for you won't miss you.Kiki didn't have a dramatic origin story—no early illness or single defining moment. A high school anatomy teacher's question and a mesmerizing first shadowing of a six-hour open-heart surgery nudged her toward medicine. She kept living fully as a type B student who played Division II basketball, learning time management the hard way: rigid schedules, constant travel, and studying through exhaustion. In this conversation, Kiki unpacks being a reapplicant after a 506 MCAT and limited volunteer hours, what she fixed the second time—earlier timing, practice questions over rereads, quick secondaries—and why she initially applied to only two schools. She explains how medical transport and later working as a pharmacy technician broadened her clinical lens. When out-of-state tuition topped $80,000, she took a hard look at Navy HPSP, did her homework beyond recruiter promises, and chose the scholarship—even after getting off a local waitlist later. Kiki shares how she reframed setbacks, how much community mattered, and what realistically concerns her about the military match: deployment and accepting “assignments.” Her closing message to premeds is clear and steady—keep doing the work, stay intentional, and trust that what's meant for you won't miss you.What You'll Learn:- How a D2 athlete built time management without sacrificing premed- What went wrong in her first cycle and how she changed it- Why she chose Navy HPSP and how she evaluated the trade-offs- Ways transport and pharmacy tech roles expand clinical exposure
