Season 6 Episode 10: Spin Tha Block.

Y’all! We’ve reached the season finale, and although we were originally planning to recap episodes 9 and 9.5, daddy duties took priority. But don’t worry—we’ve got you covered! The ladies stepped up and created an all-new episode on the fly.


For all the millennials, do you remember the big moment when Swizz Beatz and Timbaland kicked off "Versus" in 2020? We witnessed some epic moments, like the Nelly and Ashanti reunion. Who would've guessed that iconic hug would turn into a marriage and a baby?  Of course, not everyone has the same experience. Take Jessica, for instance, who’s spun the block on  her high school first love over and over again. (Yikes)

So, what would you do if your old love pulled a Nelly? Would you follow Ashanti’s lead or avoid contact like the pandemic?


As promised, here’s the link to purchase Peggy’s first (but not last) book:  Affirmations: Empowering & Healing Black Women

Season 6 Episode 9.5: Parenting Vs. Emotional Connection.

After last week's teaser, it was only right to bring you Part 2 of this heated debate, where we all had strong (and valid) opinions, but each of us shifted the goalposts to support our own side. We've got a dad of a 5-year-old, someone who dreams of having kids, and one person who was parentified at a young age and has zero interest in having children. We even had to call in a "friend" to offer a fresh perspective.


Did we find common ground? Nope.Did we yell so much that the mics started peaking? Absolutely.Were any of us right or wrong? We’ll leave that up to you to decide.

Season 6 Episode 9: The Unprecedented, Precedented!

What was meant to be a heartfelt episode where we reflected on the Black history moments we've personally experienced in our lifetime quickly took an unexpected turn. What started as a celebration of powerful memories turned into an intense (and often loud) debate about whether school uniforms were removing students self-expression or help reduce distractions.


Enjoy part one of two…………

Season 6 Episode 8: She Had To Go.

PEGGY-LESS POD!! For the first time in six seasons, Jessica and Peggy aren't recording together. But as we all know, the show must go on. Jess and Peggy have been the dynamic duo, but sometimes other obligations take precedent, and in this episode, it’s Cav who steps in to fill the void.


In Episode 8, Cav shares his initial impressions of Jessica, shares his thoughts on marriage, resolving conflict with friends, and even debates if “Zatima” can be compared to “Martin”. This episode doesn’t lack any of the usual fun or wild conversations you’re used to!

(28:54) It sounds like a crazy corn title. 

(29:50) Tyler Perry got you?

(32:42) Blasphemy! Don’t do that!

(34:46) Oh, we kicked her out.

Season 6 Episode 7: Hi Younger Me, Its Older You.

It’s easy to get caught up in the rush of life and forget to take time to reflect. Reflect on your accomplishments, your setbacks, the dreams you’ve put aside, or the ones you’ve forgotten about and need to revisit. What if your 19-year-old self could watch a video of the person you’ve become? Would they be proud and excited, or would they see areas for growth?

Season 6 Episode 6: You Are Turning Me Off.

Not sure if Peggy and Jess have learned their lesson about giving Cav creative control, but here we are with another C-Mic Takeover! In Episode 6, we tackle a conversation that’s bound to spark some debate: 

Why are some men turned off by women who seem to have it all—her own house or apartment, a car, a great job, and a solid career? The Irony- These are the same men complaining about women who have nothing to offer and would rather  depend on the men. 

Are men’s egos really that fragile?

Defend This Virgo- Iyanla Vanzant

Peggy’s Pet Peeve’s- The Proud and Unwashed.

Season 6 Episode 5: Outside Looking In

In this episode, Peggy takes the reins to discuss the often unseen struggles behind others' success stories. It’s easy to admire someone’s achievements without truly understanding the journey it took to get there. We all have our own unique purpose, and no two paths are the same. Sometimes, the key is simply doing what makes sense for you and what’s best for your own journey.


Dirty DMs: Jessica asks Peggy and Cav about their most outrageous direct messages.
Peggy’s Pet Peeves: "Move back!"

Season 6 Episode 4: Let Go Of That Friend

In this episode, with Cav handling some outside responsibilities, Jessica and Peggy take the lead as they dive  into the complexities of adult friendships. We all know what it's like to be so close to someone that you can't imagine life without them—only to realize, as we grow, some relationships may need to be let go. Navigating friendships in adulthood can be tough, but the reward is always worth the effort.

Season 6 Episode 3: I Cannot Rely On A Man

We’ve all encountered a woman who struggles to ask for help (ahem, Jessica), but why is that? Is it rooted in past trauma? A discomfort with vulnerability? Or is it because they don’t feel they can rely on the men in their lives? In this episode, the group delves into these questions and more—hopefully shedding some light on this topic.
