Is Marriage A Commitment Or A Contract? May 12, 2021

Show notes

Tonight, on "It's Real Talk Radio", we're addressing a controversial topic; marriage! So, Is marriage a commitment for the rest of your life or is it a more political and more of a contract between the 2 parties and Uncle Sam? With the rise in YouTubers, Instagram Live, Facebook Live and other platforms who give content creators a voice, marriage has become a hot topic, as of late. Some people feel like you need to take someone's hand in holy matrimony to be fulfilled while others feel like it's a trap! Most people can agree that there are both pros and cons when it comes to marriage. The bigger question is do the pros outweigh the cons? What do you consider to be pros minus cons? Would you consider divorce if you were unhappy and if you established a significant fortune before or during your marriage, are you willing to fight it out in court to see how much your formal spouse is entitled to? These are some of the questions we must ask ourselves before deciding making such a life altering decision. It's no secret that women typically care more about being married and having that expensive rock that symbolizes their union. In fact, it's likely that most guys would be content just being in a long-term relationship for the rest of their lives, if it made their woman happy. Most guys feel like marriage is the way to show your woman you're all about her and fully committed. However, we all know that in reality, married people can and do cheat just like non married couples. In fact, the level of toxicity typically rises after marriage. Some people feel like marriage is the most efficient way to save their dying relationship. History however has shown otherwise. But that doesn't stop most people from still jumping the broom. Some do it for spiritual/religious purposes. Well tonight, we'll be sharing our views and you know it's gonna get real, so don't miss out!

Mother's Day Celebration May 05, 2021

Show notes

Tonight, on It's Real Talk Radio, we are paying homage to one of the most special holidays of the year; Mother's Day! While it's true that not everyone was fortunate enough to have a Super Mom, most of us were fortunate enough to have a great mom who provided, cared for, nourished and loved us unconditionally. If you think of most of the people you know, more than likely, most of them had a decent or really good upbringing, typically thanks to the mother. Who’s the MVP of mothers? Single Mothers! There are so many single parent households out there, and a vast majority of them are super moms who handle their business, the right way! We're talking about the ones who legitimately get it done, without resorting to the pole, selling their bodies, or OnlyFans. They don't just sit around and complain all day while nothing gets done; they're out there in the trenches and providing for their children, just like any real father does! This gets overlooked too much in today’s society. To put it cut and dry, single mothers don't get the praise they truly deserve and tonight we will be giving them their flowers! Women have come a long away and are thriving more than ever, as the United States has just elected their first female Vice President, and things only look to go up from here. Woman are accomplishing milestone after milestone and showing that they can hold some of the same prominent roles that men have had since the beginning of time. Most of these women are brilliant, strong and super moms who are driven by their willingness to provide a better life for their children and to teach them how to be productive, law-biding citizens. So tonight is a celebration and a thank you to all the mothers out there, as we get ready for Mother's Day, this Sunday. We appreciate all the great moms and we will be spending this discussion acknowledging your greatness!

Was The Police Shooting Death Of Ma'Khia Bryant Justified? Apr 28, 2021

Show notes

Tonight, on It's Real Talk Radio, we will be discussing the recent shooting death of 16 year old Ma'Khia Bryant, by Officer Nicholas Reardon, a police officer in Columbus Ohio. On Tuesday, April 20th, 2021, the nation waited anxiously for the verdict of former officer, Derrick Chauvin. As everyone was waiting with great anticipation, about 30 minutes before a jury found Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin guilty for murdering George Floyd in May of 2020, Officer Nicholas Reardon's fatal shots were fired into Ma’Khia Bryant. The officer claimed he fired the shots in defense of what looked to be a helpless victim curling into a ball to protect herself from the knife clutching lunging motion of Ma'Khia Bryant. When you watch the bodycam footage, it all happens so fast, you can't really tell what's occurred. You have to watch the slow motion playback to really be able to see Ma'Khia Bryant clutching a knife as she lunges towards the other female in the pink. This has sparked debate on what's justified use of force verses excessive force. Some people feel like Officer Reardon should have shot Ma'Khia in the leg or shot a warning shot into the air or used his Taser to minimize the potential of fatally injuring Ma'Khia Bryant. Others feel like had he hesitated any longer, the other female in the confrontation could have been killed. This police shooting is different from the other nationally covered shootings due to a number of factors. While this is a sad and tragic incident, unlike most of the other police shootings, Ma'Khia wasn't unarmed and she was attacking someone with a deadly weapon and from what we can see from the body cam footage, the other female didn't have a weapon. This is a tough one but we're gonna share our views on this incident, from an unbiased perspective. Don't miss out! Call In # 563-999-3434

Derrick Chauvin Convicted Of 2nd Degree Murder For The Killing Of George Floyd Apr 21, 2021

Show notes

Tonight, on It's Real Talk Radio, we will be discussing the conviction of former Minneapolis, Minnesota police officer, Derrick Chauvin. On Today, Tuesday, April, 20, 2021, Derrick Chauvin was found guilty of 2nd Degree Murder, 3rd Degree Murder and Manslaughter, for the killing of George Floyd. This was a monumental day in America's judicial system, as police officers are rarely convicted for the killing of unarmed Black people. As the verdict was being read by the judge, you could cut the tension with a knife! People of all races and backgrounds waited desperately, as the judge announced guilty, after guilty, after guilty, as the cameras continued to focus on an anxious crowd. Once the guilty verdict was announced, you could see the uproar in the crowd outside of the Minneapolis courthouse. This jury deliberated for about 10 hours, which is typically a quick deliberation for a trial of this magnitude. So how did we get here? Former police officer Derrick Chuauvin forced his knee onto George Floyd's Neck for a total of 9 minutes and 27 seconds, resulting in the death of George Floyd. This horrific slaying was caught on video, via camera phone and posted online, which lead to the public outcry for justice. This video, which was recorded by a teenager, who just so happened to be in the local area, laid the groundwork for this case to be prosecuted. So here we are, just hours after the conviction, and the energy of the protesters is still high, as people continue to gather and celebrate this historic moment. Of course we had to cover this topic! It was inevitable! On 5/29/2020 and 6/5/2020, we discussed the disturbing video of Derrick Chauvin taking the life out of George Floyd and now, just 1 year later, we are discussing the conviction of Derrick Chauvin! It doesn't get any realer than this! Facebook:

DMX Tribute Apr 14, 2021

Show notes

Tonight, on “It's Real Talk Radio”, we will be paying tribute to the late-great brother, Earl Simmons, better known by his stage name, DMX! This was a fiery brother who gave Hip Hop his all! From street anthems to story-telling to club bangers, to prayers, there was no limit to what DMX brought to the mic! In 1998, DMX's breakout year, he set a tone that we've yet to see be matched, having dropped to commercial hit albums, in the same year. This is just not something we see in music at all, let alone Hip Hop! In 1998, DMX dropped his debut album “It's Dark And Hell Is Hot”, which debut at #1. That same year, he dropped “Flesh Of My Flesh, Blood Of My Blood”, which also debuted at #1. In 1999, the Dark Man dropped his third studio album, “…And Then There Was X”, which also debuted at #1, with hit singles "What These Bitches Want and Party Up (Up In Here), which was his biggest hit single. By 2003, DMX became the first artist to have his first 5 albums enter the Billboard Charts at #1! People who knew X would describe him as charitable and a people's person. He didn't care about the money or the fame and he never sold out. He always stayed true to who he was and embraced everyone as equals. He never went Hollywood, even during the height of his career with the movies and successful music career. X was just one of the guys! There's no secret that DMX struggled with drug addiction and on Friday, April 9th, 2021, passed away from complications, due to a drug overdose. Hip Hop loss a legendary icon and one of the best to ever do it! Well tonight, as me mourn the loss of our brother; we celebrate his life and all of his many accomplishments! We will be playing songs, prayers and audio clips from some of his iconic interviews! If you're an X fan, you definitely won't wanna miss this, because we're gonna represent X the right way!

Show notes

Tonight, on It's Real Talk Radio, we will be celebrating Bobby G and his contribution to the movement! Bobby G is now the second longest running co-host in It's Real Talk Radio history, and that's saying something! March 28th, 2021, marked the 1 year anniversary of Bobby G's continuous dedication, and I, Tay Real, host and creator of It's Real Talk Radio, couldn't be more grateful! It takes real commitment to stay on a podcast for a whole year straight when you could be doing a ton of other things with your leisure! With us being a weekly show, Bobby has now been in over 50 continuous shows with us, and that doesn't include the "NFL Weekly Wrap Up" on It's Real Talk Radio, which he's the former co-host of nor does it include shows where he called in or was a guest for the night! It's as simple as this. I had a vision, Bobby saw that vision and he believed in it too and Bobby just so happens to be a real one, so he rocked out with the movement and has not cemented himself on the It's Real Talk Radio Mt. Rushmore. We will be revisiting some of the topics we've covered on the show over the past year, and seeing how much content Bobby can remember being involved in. We're also gonna play some fun games and taka a trip back to Bobby's upbringing, to see how life conditioned him to become the honorable man he is today. Ladies and gents, I present to you, the man, the king, the legend, MY BOY, Mr. Bobby G! #ItJustGotReal Call In # 563-999-3434

A Look Inside The Current Dating Market For Single Men Mar 31, 2021

Show notes

Tonight, on It's Real Talk Radio, we will be taking a look inside the current market for single men and discussing what it's like for single men right now. It's pretty standard to discuss what the dating market is for women but very rarely do we focus the microscope on the men's side of the fence. So what is it like for a single man in 2021? We are here to tell you from a man's perspective! Like women, there are trials and tribulations that single men face and it isn't the cake walk some women may think. There is a lot of pressure on men to hunt, be smooth, get all the women, get laid, be able to control his woman, be successful when he approaches a woman, be desirable, have the means to provide, a certain income, pay for dates, be a certain height, a certain build, have a certain type of hair, certain eye color, certain skin complexion, be an alpha (while not being controlling), lead but let his woman lead too, the list is endless! Most women have no idea what men in the dating market go through until they have sons who grow up to be men, and they experience it firsthand. Some women think that men just complain about a bunch of nothing and that they have it easy, since they don't have to have periods or bare children. Men tend to get treated like emotionless objects that are only here to serve the purpose of fulfilling a woman's greatest desires and fantasies. Well tonight, we're gonna play a little game of "Show & Tell." You may wonder where we're going with this. Well we're gonna log onto a dating app and read some of the bios of real life single women on the dating market and let you hear for yourself what single men are dealing with nowadays! Oh, you better believe, this is gonna be one for the ages! Fellas, we got y'all! Ladies, walk with us, as we take you on a journey that many men face on the daily! Call In # 563-999-3434

Real Talk with Lil Tay Real Mar 17, 2021

Show notes

Tonight, on It's Real Talk Radio, we will be celebrating a birthday with a special someone. Lil Tay Real (the son of host Tay Real) will be hanging out with us, on his birthday, to talk about his birthday, school, what he wants to be when he grows up and the Coronavirus pandemic. This quote is directly from Tay Real: "It is a huge honor to interview my son, live on air, on his 6th birthday. He is smart beyond his years and an amazing young child. I couldn't be prouder!" This is ground breaking for our show as Lil Tay Real will be the first child to be interviewed in our 7 year history. It is important to give the children a voice because they have a lot to say as they have been dealing with the same roller coaster ride as the adults throughout this pandemic. So many children have missed out on playing with their friends and seeing family members, especially the elderly and those with pre-existing health conditions. Some children haven't seen their grandparents in almost a year while others have yet to meet their school teacher face to face this school year. It's also difficult to make new friends when you aren't going to the playground and you're going to school virtually. How do the parents of young children K-2 get to connect and more importantly, how do their parents get to connect, so they can exchange contact information and allow the kids to interact outside of virtual learning? These are some of the challenges that we face in 2021, as we continue to work to get back to some degree of normalcy. This is gonna be a great one and definitely kid friendly! Kids almost communicate telepathically, that's how in sync they are with one another, so by all means, let your child tune in and listen as a family. We know you're just as proud of your children as Tay Real is of his. It doesn't get any realer than this! Don't miss out! #ItJustGotReal

Chiquita is a former 3 sport athlete: Cross Country, Track & Field, and Basketball. During her high school years, Chiquita was a star athlete in track & field and was so good, that during her freshman year, her coach noticed how fast she was running during practice and decided to let her compete in the varsity relay race, in which her team placed first. She remained on varsity for the remainder of her high school years. During her junior year, her coach came to her and offered her a full 4 year scholarship, for any college of her choosing, but due to occurrences in her personal life, she kindly declined. Chiquita grew up in a 2 parent home with a loving mother who was a career beautician and a woman of God for 40 years now and a loving father who showed the definition of dedication, as he dedicated 30 years of his life to his career and is now retired. With 3 sisters and 2 brothers, Chiquita is from a big family and a devoted Christian. Chiquita is now a personal trainer (with clients) and is looking to start her own gym in the Chicago area. She already has the blueprint of how she wants her gym to be set up and she is locked in and ready to make it happen, as she has been campaigning to get her vision off the ground. If you look at the pictures we've included in the slideshow, you'll see that Ms. Harris is about business! That said, you can find her on Facebook live, discussing not only fitness and promoting her upcoming business, but discussing everyday life stuff as well. Likeable, relatable and professional, this is a woman who is deserving of her dream becoming a reality. Call In # 563-999-3434 Chiquita's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lala.paris.39
