Roses Are Dead
Roses Are Dead is where hand-me-down myths die. We challenge the entry-level performance of manhood—holding doors, flashing wallets, staring at exits—and demand more: vision, discipline, emotional strength, and purpose. In this space men confront the myths they inherited, hold one another accountable, and rise as whole leaders. Masculinity isn’t a role to play; it’s a standard to live.

Clinton Kelly, Emmy-winning host of ABC’s The Chew and TLC’s iconic What Not to Wear, is joined by two panelists, an expert in the field of relationships and a celebrity guest, to scrutinize the failed relationship, secretly vote on who’s to blame—and divvy up a $1,000 pot!

SMEX ED
A Sexual Empowerment Podcast focusing on empowering women to have the audacity to take up space in this world, to say fuck it to the rules that society tries to push on them, and to be audacious as fuck every. single. day.
Amanda King is an empowerment coach who helps women claim their self confidence, have the audacity to say fuck it to societal standards, & step into their power. In only three years, she was able to grow her brand, Fierce as F*ck, to over half-a-million dollars using organic marketing techniques. After spending many years working in corporate America as a pastry chef, she left it all behind to build her unique brand of ‘blue collar coaching,’ a strong antidote to the glossy #bossbabe entrepreneurship that’s peddled online ad nauseam.
She focuses on leading with integrity, vulnerability, transparency, and most importantly authenticity. She strives to help every entrepreneur find their voice, be bold, and take up as much space as humanly possible in this world.
Amanda currently resides in Virginia with her three dogs and enjoys spending time with her many (seriously, there are a lot of them) nephews and nieces.
