They Aint Your Friends

We often take our friendships for granted, but like any other relationship, friendships take time, work, and effort. Taking a que from a question posed on #therapyforblackgirls, on this week's episode, we're discussing the work that we've done to be better friends. Also, in addition to our usual pop-culture dissection, we delve into a conversation about summer TV and why or why not She's Gotta Have It had to go. Catch us on the internets @tayfpodcast. Thanks for listening!

It's Monday! Back to life, back to reality. Speaking of life (and work), this week we're discussing whether it's appropriate to cultivate relationships in the workplace (both platonic and romantic). We share our experiences with work friendships and our perspective on whether we support them or not. Of course this episode wouldn't be complete without a look at what's going on in pop culture this week. We'd love to hear from you! Check us out on IG/Twitter @tayfpodcast. Thanks for listening!

Let's be clear; no baby is a mistake. However, through no fault of their own, sometimes babies are conceived in circumstances which make it hard for the adults in their lives to accept them.

Have you heard the latest that comedian Mo'nique has said about black women and their men? We've known for years that she's a proponent of open relationships, and that's fine, but now she has an even more controversial spin on the subject - specifically directed at black women. Here what she said and our take on this week's episode. Thanks for listening! Check us out on the interweb @tayfpodcast.

Have you ever given someone the silent treatment? Has it ever been given to you? This week, we're talking about the effectiveness of the silent treatment, if there's ever a time and a place for it and how we feel when it's used. Also, in pop culture, we're talking about the happenings or lack thereof, that's been going on this week. As always, we appreciate you for listening. Thanks!

Like the rest of the world, we watched Jada Pinkett's Red Table Talk with the ladies of the Curry family. Of course, we must talk about Ayesha Curry and the statement head across the world. Here our take and that of our guests (show favorites, Kev and Dave) on what she said and how men and woman seem to feel about it. As always, we take a look at who needs friends this week. And we all agree... Tyra Banks doesn't need anything! Her new Sports Illustrated Swim Cover is everything! Chat with us @tayfpodcast on IG/Twitter.

Early release!! This week we decided to dive into some of the crazy questions that are submitted to the IG account of Six Brown Chicks. Whew chile, they are some crazy ones. Hear our advice and take on these crazy scenarios! Trying to keep up with who needs friends this week was a little crazy. But what we do know is that Beyonce still holds the crown; Kim K is going to be Kim K. West, Esq., and Charlamagne and Wendy W. made up! As always, we appreciate your support. Thanks for listening!

This week, it seems like everywhere you turned someone was saying something crazy. But we're focusing on Apostle Jennings, a GA based pastor, who decided he needed to "coach" women on why they're single. Whew! The ladies on TAYF went awf on this one. In pop culture, the news this week was definitely dominated by the unfortunate and untimely death of Nipsey Hussle. Finally, as ladies local to the DMV, we had to discuss #DontMuteDC and the impact it had on the region this week. Thanks for listening!

Our topic this week is Inspired by the betrayal of one of Eva Marcille's (RHOA) bridesmaids. We examine what makes a close friend decide to betray you and when, if ever, is it okay to do so. Also, we lose our way a bit in this episode. From Jussie Smollett to John Gray to why people post subtweets and then deny it - we're all over the place! If you'd like to hear our thoughts on something going on in your world, shoot us a DM @tayfpodcast or an email to tayfpodcast@gmail.com. Thanks for checking us out!

There’s been so much wackiness going on in the world over the past two weeks. From Pastor John Gray to Jess Hilarious to Wendy Williams to Daniel Caesar, it has all been so crazy! In case you’ve missed any of the celebrities’ messiness this week, we’re going to discuss it and tell you our take on the matters. As always, we’d love to hear from you.

It’s the story that we couldn’t ignore – and we definteily tried. But after Jada and Will got involved, we had to know what was going on with Jordyn Woods, Khloe Kardashian and Tristan “everybody’s man” Thompson. This week we discuss Jordyn’s interview on Red Table Talk and our (slightly) revised thoughts on the cheating scandal. In who needs friends this week, we would love to be friends with Gayle King, Meek Mill and poor Khloe could really use a friend. Thanks for listening and check us out on social media @tayfpodcast. Thanks for listening!

How closely tied are love and attraction? If you are no longer attracted to your partner, does that impact how you feel about them? Is loss of attraction a deal breaker? Listen to us chat about our feelings on this. Hint: Some of us are a little shallow. :-) Also, all kinds of people need friends this week. But you know we had to give our two cents (and that’s about all we could spare) on Jordyn Woods and the Khloe situation. Plus, what is Gilbert Arenas talking about this week and Solange is back!! Thanks for listening! Check us out on social media @tayfpodcast.

This week we’re dishing about our new favorite TV obsession, #WETV Love After Lock-up. I know the name sounds like it’s garbage, and it is a little trashy, but it sure is good! We break down the status of each couple, how they met and our take on their very improbable relationships. One relationship in particular is enough to spinoff onto its own crazy reality show! Also, as we consider who needs friends this week and who we want to be friends with... What’s the deal with RHOA’s Ronnie and Shemar DeVoe? They need friends. And, once again Toya was right, B.Smith’s husband was up to something and now they’re getting a reality TV show. Finally, we’d love to be friends with Ciara because Russell Wilson just gifted her with the ultimate prize. Don’t forget, find us on the social media @tayfpodcast. Thanks for listening!

Happy Monday! It’s February, the month of love, Valentine’s Day, and all of those things. When we think about love, we often think about marriage. For most people, marriage means many things, including ‘til death do us part. We’re in a society that accepts divorce, so that’s one way many people have chosen to leave their marriage. However, what about when your spouse becomes ill and is no longer, mentally, the person you married? Are you still bound to the vows you once took? This week, we’re discussing the controversy created by B. Smith’s husband, Dan Gasby, when he went public with his girlfriend. We consider their particular situation and our opinion on how he’s handled being a caregiver to his wife, who has Alzheimer’s disease. As always, we discuss who needs friends this week – and there are a lot of them, including; The Game, all of VA’s leadership, Bow Wow, and these Luxury Brands. As always, thanks for listening! Please check us out on social media @TAYFpodcast.

It’s 2019, and the ladies of TAYF will be turning 40 (that’s right, all three of us!). As you can imagine, there are sure to be several shows where we’ll discuss this milestone. This week’s episode is the first one. We’re dishing about what we think 40 will be like, what we expect, fears, and are looking forward to accomplishing as we approach this momentous occasion. As we do each week, you’ll hear our thoughts on who needs friends this week and who we’d like to be friends with. And of course, we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention Soulja Boy… lol.

In this week’s episode, we’re talking about the Lifetime Documentary, Surviving R Kelly. Like everyone else, our eyes were glued to the television as we watched so many young women detail their horrific experiences with the R&B singer. Listen as we talk about the documentary, our thoughts, and our take aways from the Dream Hampton produced program. Thank you for listening.
