JB's brother Teddy agreed to grace is with his presence on this week's episode and we couldn't be more grateful. He's a married man of 13 years and we wanted to get his opinion on some ideas concerning marriage and commitment.

We're back for a 2020 catch-up! We know it's been a while but pull up, listen and see what mischief we've been up to!
This week's episode starts out with a story about an extremely unfortunate event- one of us were led to believe they would have a fulfilling night of "thrashing" only to be bamboozled with child's play. Does size matter to you? Can skills in other areas redeem smaller equipment? Tune in to hear our very explicit thoughts about such a surprisingly common and age old dilemma.
This week we start our discussion off reviewing our Game of Thrones reactions to the "Battle at Winterfell" (S8/EP3 SPOILER ALERT!!!!-skip to 13:29 if you haven't seen it this episode yet). OH MAN! We have so many feelings about how everyone performed this week but our bottom line is that Arya is the GOAT (PERIODT)! We then move on to talk about a woman who was forcibly removed from the premises of a school while trying to enroll her child because she was not dressed the way the principal saw fit. What is appropriate attire to drop your child at school? Do you agree with parental dress codes? Listen to this week's episode to hear our thoughts!
How do you define "high maintenance"? Do y'all have non negotiables that a person must fulfill before you'll date them (ie:higher salty, luxury car, masters degree, etc.)? We think some of y'all confuse high maintenance with having standards. This episode raised many questions, tune in and see if we answered these questions.
Gang Gang! We're back in this thang. We have some catching up to do as 2/3's of the squad has been world traveling and the other third has a baby baking in her oven! After catching up, we dive into this article about a woman ghosting her best friend. Where they do that at?! Is there any circumstance where that would be acceptable? Have you done it? Tune in to hear her case and see if she persuaded us. Also catch the new visuals to our episodes on RedSummerTv on Youtube!
This week we grapple with a post we came across giving advice to men to pursue a woman (with abandonment issues) even after she's already said no. Ladies, is there ever a time when we say no to increase the chase or does no ALWAYS mean no? Later on in the episode we touch on a woman finding out her man is bi-sexual six months into dating him. Tune in to hear how the topic spirals into a whole 'nother lane.
This week we get into the 80/20 rule...but not the one Tyler Perry discussed in "Why did I get married", This 80/20 rule deals with splitting the bills. Should your partner pay 80% of the bills? Or do you think it should be evenly split? We also spoke about whether or not we are faithful during the talking stage. P.S.- When do ya'll give all joints the boot? Let's get into it
It's been a while but we are BACK! Grab ya headphones and turn up the volume! First up at the top of the cancellation list is Trump....of course, but do we gotta add Auntie Gladys Knight & Big Boi too?! We talk pullin up to the Millennium Tour in our best 2000's fashion, Oh, and did y'all peep the Cardi & City Girls Twerk video?! Were you left feeling empowered.... or scarred?! Tune in and see how we felt about it all.
This week we're tackling life changing gestures that people have done for their significant others. Would you donate a kidney to bae if he/she needed it? How would you feel if they no longer wanted to be with you after said gesture? As you can imagine that opened the floodgates for what you've done for the D/P? Have you built someone up for them to leave you for the next person? Are you single single or are you engaged? Join us as we go down the relationship rabbit hole.
When is it your responsibility to learn things you didn't during your adolescence? Are there some things you just have to accept from your partner based off of how they grew up? This week we tow the line between understanding a person's conditioning and holding them accountable for knowledge as an adult.
This week we discuss the idea that when a woman has an attitude or is in the middle of a mood swing, she not only wants space, but attention as well. Have y'all figured that out yet fellas? It's a very easy concept! What do y'all think? Have any of you found the healthy balance yet?
This week we give our opinion on the Nicki/Cardi feud as well as discussing a post we stumbled across where a grandmother relaxed a child's hair against the wishes of her mother. The father was very nonchalant and didn't seem to grasp the importance. How would y'all handle this?
We end our hiatus on the tail end of wedding season discussing the fad that is wedding dances. For those who aren't familiar, this is when the bride and/or the bridal party(OR groom and groomsmen) do a choreographed dance for their partner during the reception. What are your thoughts? Are they over done? As a guest how does it make you feel? Find out our thoughts on this week's episode! Please rate review and subscribe.
This week we catch up on the new music that has been released like Teyana Taylor's album and The Carters' album. We also get into the nitty gritty of the fact that Lee Daniels admits (after being pressed) that he owes Dame Dash TWO MILLION DOLLARS. Dame lent him money to help fund the movie Precious and he hasn't seen it since. What kind of baldheaded foolishness is this?! Get into this episode honey!
This week we talk WYPIPO. We discuss the dynamics of being a black in Corporate America and knowing how to code switch when appropriate.
This week we talk about one woman's aversion to paying to celebrate a friend's birthday. She believes if you don't have the coin to pay for your guests at your own event, don't have one! Hmmm. Tough cookie. We also get into whether you should split the bill evenly if you go out with friends or if people should put up their own bread. What do y'all think? Weigh in with your two cents and join the convo! @itzfactsonly
Get into this week’s episode as we discuss Slim Thug’s aversion to a title in a relationship. He said prefers you to be his “best friend first”. Do y’all think a title is important? Should your “best friend” be privy to your goodies? Derrick Jaxn gets him together and we give our own feedback on the matter. Pull up with a cup and join the conversation.
Today we talk about Roseanne Barr's racist tweet that got her show cancelled. Is it fair that your personal opinion can negatively affect your career? We discuss all the ratchet, non-pc, things that we've said that could very well come back to bite us in the butt. It's such a sticky topic because everyone is entitled to their opinion, right? Join the conversation. Rate, review and subscribe.
In this week's episode, we grapple with the idea of dating younger men. We see J. Lo, Black Chyna, Amber Rose, and even Gabrielle Union scooping up these Pretty Young Fellas and we're trying to decide if it's best to lower our age standards. What's the youngest age you'd date and why?
This week, we talk about the video that shut down the internet from Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino. This video was jam packed with provocative imagery, much of which was focused on the black experience. This led to Black Twitter challenging his “woke-ness” because of the fact that he has children with an Asian woman and a White woman. Whatchall think? Does an artist’s personal life have to reflect that of their music?
Because we missed y'all last week, we had to play catch up! The catch up includes: Beychella , Invasion of Privacy, Chun Li, and Kanye's desire to "Make America Great Again"
This week we start the episode comparing our high school courtship process versus the new age ones. According to one twitter user, the only thing young guys need to do nowadays when trying to "get to know" a girl is invite her over to chill. In OUR day, personal CDs were necessary as well as coding your myspace profile to reflect the desires of your crush- I'm talking her favorite song, her actual name dropping down in letters like the matrix, and even making her number one in your top 8. We had to put in work! This week we ALSO do a light segue into a scenario where a hotel room serves as a date location. HMMM whatchall think? Join us as we spill this tea.
Newly Baldheaded Tamar heads over to the Steve Harvey show to discuss her past choices to be aesthetically pleasing for her ex. Uncle Steve feels that if you don’t look right as woman, he shouldn’t act right as a man. We head on over to social media personality Derrick Jaxn to get his take. Listen up to see who’s side you fall on.
Gucci, Gucci, Louis, Louis, Fendi, Fendi Prada, Tyronne took all your Financial Ad and he aint leave ya NADA! This week we talk about Good Brother Tyrone Hankerson and the substantial amount of money he allegedly took from Howard University. We'd like to acknowledge his finesse and look back on some of our past ways. Thank God for Deliverance.
Listen while we grapple with a concept that has recently been brought to our attention: What if all the times you curved a dude, HE was actually setting you up to do the curving? Wouldn't that mean HE curved YOU? *INSERT MR. KRABS' DISORIENTED MEME HERE* We decided to name it "The Reverse Curve". Mind, blown, right? We even break down scenarios in which this can occur!

Can you pay my bills? Umm... Wait, hold up! We ain't talking to bae this week like Destiny's Child was in the song. THIS question was asked from a mother to her FIVE year old.

Listen to this episode to hear the whole tweet and to see which side you agree.
I know what y'all are thinking, but chill...this episode has NOTHING to do with body parts or anything below the waist so get your mind out of the gutter and into the game. This Valentine's Day episode is about ENGAGEMENT RING size. We discuss the interesting notion that gold diggers are the only women who should care about rock size. How much should be spent on a ring? Is it really only the thought and commitment that count? Head on over to our IG page @itzfactsonly to take a gander at the ring that sparked this topic.
Hey My Loves Join us as we enter our second season discussing Mo’Nique’s plea to boycott Netflix.

This week we chop it up about the pressure of supporting black business. Are you obligated to buy from your friends even if you have no use for their products? Do you really have to download their music if you've already listened and didn't like it? Are you a bad friend by not spending money on your friends product? Let's talk about it!
Gabrielle Union once said that "in the bedroom, reciprocity is key" so ladies, if bae starts "eating your groceries", are you returning the favor? Guys do you guys even like "eating groceries"? Also, we touch on a couple of bonus topics this week-P.D.A. and shacking up.
A wise man once said "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take". So you know what that means? Go for it! We discuss whether or not it's appropriate or desirable to be the first to court a man.

In a world of Kim K, Bernice Burgos, Lil Kim, and Tiny we just wanna know where the Aaliyah's are. KB, JB, & Dani chop it up about the difference between Plastic Surgery and Cosmetic Surgery.
