As much as we advocate about not pouring from an empty cup, we have to practice what we preach and take a hiatus! While we had some Dylan-fiyah loaded in the chamber for Season 5, life has been throwing more slots on our bingo card and we'd be remiss to not shift our bandwidth and energy.

Against the backdrop of both of us entering new job chapters, Drew came through with another bangerrrrrr, yall - the concept of control and how we honestly have VERY little of it in the grand scheme of things. If you're like us, the negative self-talk can get pretty loud when life be LIFING, so we sat down to chat about our relationship w/ control or lack thereof - navigating it, managing it, accepting it.... the whole 9!

Have you ever given thought to how different summers are now from when we were kids?! Drew was reminiscing hard after last episode so he did some Gooogles on why summers of the past were so top-tier and he stumbled upon a pretty dope article. Take a listen while we talk about some of the ways we can bring those old school summer vibes back, adulting and all. #FreeDatInnerChildDisSummer P.S.

Fresh off a "Black Mirror" binge, we started thinking about how trippy it is existing at the intersection of a past w/ minimal technology to an obvious future fueled by it. Everything from our phones, to gaming and how we get chores and errands done have shifted immensely as we see technology continue to evolve. And don't get us started on A.I - TUH!

We're back from vacay!! Scrolling through the interwebs, we stumbled upon a pretty interesting concept developed by Dr. John Gottman -- one which was able to predict stability in relationships with 90% accuracy -- the 5:1 rule. While developed for intimate relationships, we wanted to chat about how this "magic ratio" can be applied as a formula in regulating stability in all the relationships in your life -- from couples to coworkers, friends to family, etc. Take a listen while we dissect this concept and discuss some of the markers he says are the most common indicators for building and breaking down relationships.

In another venture into what we clearly didn't talk about when getting into a relationship (cause we were whole ass kids outchea), we discuss MOOLAH..BREAD...COIN...DINERO - thaaaa BAG.

In this episode, we examine our relationship w/ the butterfly effect - where it's shown up in our lives (IYKYK) and to what degree some simple decisions could've affected us even being here today - figuratively, literally, individually, collectively... basically, all of the 'lys!

In the latest venture into what we clearly didn't talk about before we got into a relationship (and yall prolllllllly aint either!), we examine the baggage we can retrospectively acknowledge carrying in.

Drew is mighty morphin' into a boundary gawd, which lead to a conversation about the benefits of disconnecting -- from family, friends, gadgets, settings, etc. We chat about how we know we're nearing a point where we need to disconnect, the ways we honor that need and how important it is to listen to your bawdy & mind. Fun Fact: Tiff ain't answerin' the phone 7.5/10 times and dat's OKAAY.
