Ep. 053 Complexion | Colorism, Discrimination and Black Women | APAN Podcast

Ep. 053 Complexion | Colorism, Discrimination and Black Women | APAN Podcast

In this episode we welcome back "Cameo w/ Mo" and we welcome Vee's daughter Jaden (you hear about Jaden almost every episode).   

We talk about complexion and the lack of representation in the industry and in society of black women of the darker hue. Where did this topic come from... Jaden. Jaden speaks so passionately about this issue.   

We also discussed stereotypes when it comes to "black" tv. Why is it that dark skin black women always play a hard struggling role? Why do we always have to be on the come up?   

Mo explains that growing up as the only black in her school she was always reminded that she was dark. She was always told that she was pretty for a dark skin girl. She said she didn't feel like it was discrimination but it's definitely levels to skin complexion.   

Colorism is real and we as blacks do more judging amongst ourselves than anyone else.    

How do we change this? We can change this by having conversations like this.   

Thanks, ladies!   

LISTEN, LAUGH, LOVE!

APAN Ep52 Jealousy and Envy | The difference between being jealous and being envious | APAN Podcast

APAN Ep52 Jealousy and Envy | The difference between being jealous and being envious | APAN Podcast

In this episode we talk about the difference is between jealousy and envy, and how the internet allows us to feel more connected, giving us way too much access to people's business. It's ridiculous how much time people waste on commenting hateful things on social media, and how sites like BallerAlart and The Shaderoom feed people's insecurities.   

We speak about The Social Dilemma and AD said we are living in the Matrix and she is just living. LOL   Vee discussed her dislike for the word Jealousy and how she has definitely been a hater.

The legendary Ralph Johnson of the Rock and Roll hall of fame group Earth, Wind, and Fire checked in with the APAN podcast. With touring cancelled, and the future still uncertain, Ralph took time to give us some much needed guidance, insight, and even helped Vee and AD question their purpose.

Vee and AD check in with four moms who are dealing with this new reality of homeschooling, no play dates, no parks or playgrounds, meals, snacks, hubbies working from home, and no escape or mommy me time. With no end in sight, we applaud all mothers who are holding down their forts and truly trapped in a 24 hour a day job. We know one thing...when this quarantine is over, we will throw the biggest mom party the world has ever seen! 

Thank you to our four Moms

Ep. 038 Not so funny April Fools | I'm not graduating this year | APAN Podcast

Ep. 038 Not so funny April Fools | I'm not graduating this year | APAN Podcast

With all the madness going on we had to check in with the youth to see how they are coping with this new reality. Our little cousins are seniors in high school and are in limbo with proms, graduations, and senior beach week. There is even a chance they won't start college until next winter or spring. With all of this they still have a positive outlook and a refreshing take on the current pandemic.

Ep. 029 Protect and Serve (Not like the Boys in Blue) | APAN Podcast

Ep. 029 Protect and Serve (Not like the Boys in Blue) | APAN Podcast

This week's episode we talk about episode we discuss Alicia Keys son getting his nails painted and Porsha Williams on Real HouseWives of ATL.

See we as humans tend to feed off of other people's misery and we also tend to judge without putting ourselves in the other person's shoes.

AD says it all the time, being straight or gay or any other alphabet is stricktly about sexual preferrence. The verb, the action of sex. We are all humans first. Alicia Keys felt the need to protect her son from judgment of the outside world. The boy wanted rainbow nails.

We as adults tend to push what is acceptable for girls and boys onto kids. Listen in as Vee talks about how she is guilty of this very action when it came to her son.

SKIP TO 6:26

“  I can honestly say im guilty of it until my son Thomas schooled me. So for a while his favorite was My Little Pony .

Thomas : “ I want to watch my little pony!!?

Vee : “ My Little Pony?! That’s for girls!  -

Thomas : (confused ) … gGiirLLSS?!?! Its for girls ? But there’s a boy pony right there !!!

Vee : “ touche son , touche “

Let's think about it people he is a kid. He likes colors but AD makes a great point. Make sure you listen in to see how AD puts the situation in its place.

SKIP TO 14:08

“So while you’re upset alicia just take a moment to realize where he’s getting this thought process from and who’s going to be upset with him or feel funny about him … so if yourself to preach to the world about everyone trying to judge your son , watch the people around you.

Ep.028 Grown-ish | APAN Podcast

Ep.028 Grown-ish | APAN Podcast

Welp, we went to the hood... Adult-hood and it kicked our butts this week. This is the reason why today's episode went up at 10 PM and not 11 AM. 


P.S. Judge yo MAMA! 


We don't want to grow up because we're still childish as hell!!

If you ask anyone what makes them an adult and what makes them grown I bet they will start to list all of their responsibilities. 

Is there a difference between being an adult and being grown?


Vee opens up about her current struggle with "Adulting". 

AD is over adulting. You can catch her back in childhood on Sesame Street with her boo Oscar the Grouch. 


Thanks for rocking with us family!

Ep.027 You are too Damn Young (Music Edition) | APAN Podcast

As children, we all went through that stage where your parents would make you dance for all of the grown folks and sometimes you would even get money. 


Now as an adult listening back to some of these songs I realize that the lyrics went straight over our heads. 

Listen in as we discuss some of the most provocative songs of our time and the meanings. 


We also learned of some hidden gems/meaning to a couple of songs. 


LISTEN, LAUGH, LOVE!

Ep026 Riddle Me This | APAN Podcast

Ep026 Riddle Me This | APAN Podcast

I first want to thank everyone for their kind words, love, and support as we journey through the loss of my brother. ~ Vee



You all loved the last five episodes and we received a lot of feedback and questions so we are going to continue the conversation. 

In Ep.021 & 22 Interracial Duo ft. Jake and Ashley Vicious we discussed raising children. Jake is obviously an amazing human being and is going to be an amazing father. How do you raise a black boy to be a black man and is this something that a white man can do? 

Leave us a voice mail on Anchor and let us know what you think. 


We as black people have become extremely aware of the climate in the USA. What is the difference between being "woke" and too damn sensitive? 



Ep.023 - Ep.25 Black, Married & Happy - How long do you wait for someone to see the potential that you see in them and then for them to live in their potential. 


Mo Betta was not playing any games he said that he would never be with anyone that drinks alcohol? What will make you leave a marriage?


For AD it's finding out that your significant other is a rapist and for Vee its if she finds out if her significant other is a child molester or watched child porn. 


We want to hear your answers so please leave us a message on Anchor. 

Stay connected with the fam --------> @apodcastabout on ALL platforms


LISTEN, LAUGH, LOVE!

Ep025 Black, Happy, & Married Pt.3 | APAN Podcast

Ep025 Black, Happy, & Married Pt.3 | APAN Podcast

This 3 part episode was full of emotion. We laughed, and we cried. Everyone opened up

about things not discussed outside of significant others. Things that we only keep to

ourselves, alone in a dark room. LOL


Not only did AD and I ask questions, but the fam also got in on asking questions to

each other. It was a great cousin's night out.


This episode also holds a weird but special place in my (Vee) heart.


I'm going to tell you a little story about how the people in your life aren't there by

accident but by design.


Three years ago, we (my husband and I) received an invite to the Forever Duncan wedding. October 1st of

2016, and unfortunately, but also, fortunately, we didn't attend. See, my brother was

turning 45 and was having a party in WV. I didn't know it at the time, but this would be

his last birthday that we spent together.


The day that we recorded this episode, I received a call from my brother's wife stating

that he had died in a car accident. The was July 5th, 2019. Why is any of this so

significant?


10/1 = Sherrell & Black's (Alfred) Duncan's anniversary

10/1 = My brother Freddie's birthday


7/5 = Interview with Sherrell & Black for this episode

7/5 = The day my brother died in a car accident.


Not to mention the whole episode, I was staring at Mo, thinking how much he looks like

my brother. Then the call comes in, and I am absent for the remainder of the episode.


THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! You all don't know how much we appreciate this growing family. Your support means the world to us. 


Listen, Laugh, Love!

Ep024 Black, Happy & Married Pt. 2 | APAN Podcast

Ep024 Black, Happy & Married Pt. 2 | APAN Podcast

The level of comfort that people feel with us is such a blessing. It is the best thing about APAN, and we want to thank every one of our family members (you are not a guest on our show you are family) for feeling safe enough to talk about things that they wouldn't normally talk about. We also want to thank you for allowing us to feel safe enough to have the conversation and to ask those questions and to laugh with you. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS!!

Pt.2 with the Duncan's and the McClanaha's. We get a little more serious touching on being venerable with your partner. Black and Sherelle get into a disagreement on the show. Sherelle won but we could be bias. Listen in and tell us who you think won.

Black love isn't just about being in an intimate relationship it's about being there for your brother and sister crying for them and with them when they are happy and when they are sad.

We wanted to know why is it so important to label our love as "Black Love".

SKIP TO 7:57

"It's important for young men to know it is ok to be emotionally available to a young woman, to be open and honest with her and that doesn't make you soft, it doesn't make you any less of a man, it makes you more of a man." ~ Adrian

BLACK MEN DON'T CHEAT...

This has two meanings. Black schools us on the double meaning behind this movement!

Monogamy!!! Oh lord! HERE WE GO!!!! Do we believe in it? Is this still a thing? Vee says somethings that will raise some eyebrows and have people wondering what's going on. HAHAHA Shhhhhh, what happens on the internet stays on the internet.

Again we thank you all for listening, giving feedback, & sharing. For laughing with us, for opening up with us, for loving us!

Make sure you stay connected @apodcastabout on all platforms.

Listen! Laugh! Love!

*DISCLAIMER* You may hear somethings that you feel are questionable. You may hear some words that you do not like and that might even offend you. But if you think about it there is nothing worse than our president right now so I think you'll be ok. IJS

Ep.023 Black, Happy & Married Pt.1 | APAN Podcast

Ep.023 Black, Happy & Married Pt.1 | APAN Podcast

BLACK PEOPLE Ooooooooooooo BLACK PEOPLE Ooooooooooooooo!

*Disclaimer Disclaimer Disclaimer******* TODAYS EPISODE IS ONLY FOR ADULTS!!! We talk about SEX! Ewwwwwwww… Although its literally how we all got here and your children probably watch porn under the bleachers with the little white boy named Billy whos father collects porn magazines. IJS

What does “Black Love” mean? Is it important? Why is it important?

In this week's episode we sit with The Duncans and The McCalahans and discuss what it means to be Black, Happy and Married!

Yall should see the way they look at each other. These two couples really love, respect and charis one another.

Do you believe that your partner is your soulmate?

“I've never had a connection like this in my life  and I praise it and cherish it is so valuable to me that I will never give anyone the time to even experience that.  I wouldn’t give myself any kind of room to find out if somebody else is my soulmate because I found the one.”  ~ Black

During this interview I believe that Sherelle almost cried about 3 times!

Were you looking for marriage before you got into a relationship?

I was looking for marriage when I was 21. I almost made a terrible mistake. ~ MoBetta

How many of us got into a relationship and stayed longer than you should've? How many of us have been engaged, had kids, gave our bodies and damn near our souls to a situation that wasn’t healthy? WE ALL HAVE, but when you find the right one, IT FEELS SO AMAZING TO LOVE AND BE LOVED IN RETURNED!
