What Happened? Podcast

What are your thoughts on social media life gurus?  We are noticing a rise in personalities online willing to give their advise to anyone willing to listen.  Where this may become dangerous is when we are taking these words as law and now how they should be... gentle suggestions.  

Here on the What Happened podcast we provide social commentaries, but we in now way believe our word is any more valuable than anyone else's.  With that being said, on this episode we speak on a few personalities that focused their messaging on dating and relationships.  One, Derrick Jaxn, has found himself in hot water from not living consistent with his messaging.  

Listen in as we weigh in!

Is the dating world getting any better?  To us it seems pike a perpetual cycle with glimmers of hope here and there.  We are both staying positive but the odds don't seem to be in our favors.  In this episode, we talk about the future of dating apps.   Some dating apps may be looking to acquire some personal information in attempts to perform background checks on users.  We discuss this and a few other items that are suppose to change the face of dating apps.  As always... good luck!

Welcome back What Happened listeners!!  In this episode, we discuss getting back into the dating game.  In our dating trials, we have either been the person that is not ready to date or the one that comes across the person that is deep down not ready to date.  Either way, the dating scene can be very frustrating to say the least.  What has your experience been?  Listen in as we talk about ours!

Welcome back to the podcast where we answer (and mostly ask) What Happened??  In this episode, we talk about how we go about communicating.  When is the right time to ask certain questions and have certain conversation.  There's ALWAYS a right time.  The hard part is these time times are always different.  This is why communicating and not assuming is so important in a healthy relationship at any level.  Listen in as we try to make sense of it all.

Let's about boundaries.  We all have them and no matter how short or how tall and they should be respected.. right?  In this episode, we explore the concept of having boundaries.. how they should be enforced.. how they should be received.. and how they can be dually compromised upon.  Listen in as we do our best to make sense of it all!

Is there an etiquette to navigating on social media when you have a significant other? Well duh! We already know the answer to that, but how aware are you of how your SM activities affect your mate? We don't believe you need to completely become a different person, but a being a bit considerate may go a long way. Listen to the pod!

Oh and joint pages.. just don't do it ha!

In this episode we discuss "14 Things To Talk About for a Healthy Relationship". This list is actually pretty legit. You'd thing couples would know how to communicate and learn each other, but boy oh boy is that not true!

Make sure you tune in and implement. Keep in mind, we are not relationship advisors. We are both single...

Polygamy, Polyamorous, Open, Switch... there's a lot of ways to do the "multi" thing these days. What's it all rooted in? We tend to think it goes much deeper than infidelity. There is a good portion of the population that believes that one mate is just not natural. We discuss.

Have you ever been part of an open relationship? Ever been polygamous situation? Well listen up and feel free to tell us how off base we are!

Human. Freaking. Decency.

Simple. Courtesy.

A. Little. Respect.

We can go on with this, but you get the picture. So what do you do if you're not feeling a situation and need to cancel a date with someone? Do you wait until the last minute or do you give notice as soon as possible? Do you feel funny about cancelling and put it off? Always remember there is another person on the other side that may very well be looking forward to this time with you. Try to be courteous. OR.. just don't be a dick!

What is your Love Language? Do you know what a love language is? So, initially, we though this was one of those cliche "flavor of the month" things that we people tend to gravitate towards for a week and then toss away. Well Love Language is actually a real thing and can save your relationship!

The Languages:

• Words of Affirmations
• Quality Time
• Receiving Gifts
• Acts of Service
• Physical Touch

The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate is a 1992 book by Gary Chapman. It outlines five ways to express and experience love between romantic partners that Chapman calls "love languages." (Wikipedia)

So, a year later and we are both still single on Vday. It can't be us right? Well since we don't have an official Vday to talk about, we found some discussion questions about Vday to talk about.

This episode is dedicated to Kobe Bryant, Gianna Bryant and the rest of the passengers and pilot we lost in the helicopter accident that claimed one of our young legends.

On this episode, we talk about "code". Girl and guy code is a real thing, but how invested are you in the code? When is it relevant and when do you need to fall back from the code?

Also, in the What Is Love section of the podcast we do something a lil different. We break down section 1 New York Time's "36 Questions That Lead To Love". Is this legit? Tune in to find out!

Laptops, cellphones and tablets.. Oh My! There are so many weapons against being catfished these days, yet these sneaky bastids still find away. Clearly there are levels to this catfish sh*t! Fake pictures, old pictures, your pictures, my pictures.. you never know who you're talking to until you see them in person and even then there is so confusion.

We are back! After a brief holiday hiatus, we're in action again. In this episode, we talk about embarking on the new decade as we reflected on the past one. While we aren't high on "new year, new me" and the resolution train at the top of the year, we do realize that the start of the year is the perfect time to pivot. As always, we have no issue sharing our thoughts and insights. Enjoy!

It's been a long time, we shouldn't have left you.. with out a dope pod to step to.. We hope you didn't think we were gone. We are back and strong as ever. We're on our bullshit and we are here to entertain you. On this episode we give some updates and talk about.. well, what do we always talk about?? Clearly we aren't any good at dating because we are both still single, BUT that doesn't mean we can't keep you entertained in the process. Enjoy the rebirth of the What Happened Podcast!

Have you ever been in love? Can we even define what it means to be in love? Well the duo takes a dive at breaking it down. I still don't think we have an answer here.

We also continue our Reddit relationship advice section. Hope you enjoy!

In this episode, Lacey and Kam discuss the art of giving and taking social cues. Of course, they then give their own dating/relationship spin on it.

Also in this episode, they introduce a new segment, "Ask Reddit" and a sneak preview to the new show intro. No royalties please!! As always, enjoy.
