Send us a text The loudest fight in dating right now is strangely simple: is a coffee date a thoughtful first step or a lazy move? We bring Jay from The Cognac Room podcast into the studio to cut through the noise and look at what a latte really signals about effort, safety, and intent. With a coach’s eye, Jay breaks down why coffee can be a smart baseline for chemistry checks and boundary-setting, and why some people still read it as disrespect or low effort. We explore the real pros: low s...
Send us a text Your Growth Isn’t the Problem—Their Comfort Was In this episode of Brunch Behavior: The Pour Report, we’re unpacking what really happens when you evolve—and folks who were fed by your sacrifices start acting brand new. Growth isn’t always clapped for. Sometimes, it’s criticized by the same people who benefited from your burnout. Let’s get into it: • Why setting boundaries suddenly gets labeled as “ego” • The silence during your struggle vs. the noise during your success &...
Send us a text Late Ain’t a Love Language: Why Punctuality Still Matters In this episode of Brunch Behavior: The Pour Report, we’re clocking in on chronic lateness—because showing up 42 minutes late with a smile isn’t quirky, it’s disrespectful. When someone values your time, they don’t make you babysit a reservation while they casually sabotage the schedule. Here’s what we’re pouring into: • The difference between pulling up at 12:27 for a 12:30 brunch vs. strolling in at 1:12 • Why po...
Send us a text Love is easy until the room starts watching. We dive into interracial dating with Haydee Baby from Ladies Pitch and get honest about the beauty, the friction, and the work it takes to hold a relationship steady when culture, race, and family expectations collide. From new foods and shared holidays to side-eyes at dinner and jokes that cut, we unpack what it means to love fully without shrinking who you are. I open up about why “love doesn’t erase culture; it highlights it,” an...
Send us a text Tired of feeds packed with copy-paste outrage and “who’s the prize” debates? We are too. This pour gets straight to the point: the gender war meta is cheap, loud, and staining a medium that was built for conversation, connection, and community. With Uncle Dolomite in the chair, we name the problem, unpack the stigma good creators face, and map out what it takes to make a show that actually builds culture. We start by tracing why gender war clips travel so fast and what that do...
Send us a text Stop Chasing What’s Clearly Running the Other Way In this episode of Brunch Behavior: The Pour Report, we’re putting the desperate hustle on ice. If you're out here texting, proving, adjusting, over-explaining, and still feeling unseen... this pour is your reality check. There’s a difference between healthy pursuit and self-abandonment dressed up as ambition. Here’s what we’re serving: • Why the need to constantly “prove your worth” might mean it's not worth it • The myth that...
Send us a text What if compatibility didn’t need a sales pitch, a perfect profile, or a performance—just a few honest questions asked with curiosity? We pour a fresh take on connection that skips the pressure and listens for quiet alignment in the places you actually live: your bookshelf, your playlist, and the way you spend a free afternoon. First, we break down how books reveal mindset. It’s not about flexing titles; it’s about why you read and whether you’re still learning. From The Four ...
Send us a text The debate sounds like a clash, but it’s really a cultural love story. In this episode, we unpack the timeless back-and-forth between New York and the South—how two regions with completely different rhythm and energy ended up shaping one global hip-hop identity. 12Kyle from The 12Kyle Podcast and The Rap Soul Podcast joins us to break down the roots and the evolution: New York’s foundation of block parties, bars, and DJ brilliance, and the South’s game-changing innovations—from...
Send us a text If noise feels like the default, consider what quiet can do for your life. We sit down with Joose from the Chillin’ with Joose podcast to unpack why restraint is a superpower in a world that rewards hot takes, and how choosing silence at key moments can protect your peace, your relationships, and your reputation. We start with the hard truth: social media turned everyone into a broadcaster without handing out the wisdom to match. That gap shows up as oversharing—live-streamed ...
Send us a text Grace for Me, Attitude for You? That’s Not Accountability In this episode of Brunch Behavior: The Pour Report, we’re getting into that lopsided dynamic where folks demand grace but dish out attitude like it’s bottomless mimosas. You try to hold them accountable, and suddenly you’re the villain? Let’s talk about it. On the menu: • People who can critique everything—but crumble when it’s their turn to receive feedback • The “you should’ve told me” crowd… who never take it w...
Send us a text A single idea, a blank notebook, and an hour under pressure—watch how a life can pivot when calm becomes the strategy. We raise a glass to the Motivational Sensei, a brother who turns setbacks into systems and timing into a superpower. From early ventures like barbershops and a grassroots media movement to teaching through action, this story explores how integrity, execution, and focus can build more than businesses—they build belief. We talk about the difference between chasi...
Send us a text Keep Your Circles Separate—That’s Not Fake, That’s Strategy On this episode of Brunch Behavior: The Pour Report, we’re breaking down the pressure to mix friend groups—and why that cute little crossover dinner might’ve just been a social disaster waiting to happen. Newsflash: you’re not being fake—you’re being multi-dimensional. This pour breaks it all down: • Why your brunch crew, your creative squad, and your work fam aren’t meant to mingle • How different spaces bring o...
Send us a text Ever sent a heartfelt message only to be left on read while watching that same person post endless brunch photos and perfectly captioned selfies? That frustrating contradiction is exactly what we're diving into today. Digital ghosting has become an epidemic. We're calling it what it is – selective communication. "Busy don't look like IG stories every three hours, and busy damn sure doesn't sound like Beyoncé lyrics in the caption and nothing in your inbox." When someone consis...
Send us a text Group Trips: Where Friendships Go to Be Audited In this episode of Brunch Behavior: The Pour Report, we’re unpacking the chaos that is group travel with grown friends. One minute it’s a lit group chat about passport stamps. Next minute? You’re managing a spreadsheet, chasing payments, and praying nobody books Spirit. Let’s talk about how vacations turn into vibe evaluations real quick. On the itinerary: • How “let’s take a trip!” turns into Who still owes for the Airbnb? • The...
Send us a text Not Everyone Deserves a Seat at Your Table — Especially If They Didn’t Bring a Chair In this episode of Brunch Behavior: The Pour Report, we break down why protecting your peace is a form of self-respect—especially when success starts attracting the folks who were missing when you were building. We’re calling out the difference between those who helped you build the table and the ones showing up just to eat. Here’s what we’re serving: • Why you need to stop offering seats to pe...
Send us a text If You Can’t Plan a Date, Don’t Expect a Relationship In this episode of Brunch Behavior: The Pour Report, we’re unpacking the lazy love language of “whatever you want to do” and why date planning is a maturity flex—not a gender role. If one person’s doing all the work while the other shows up with opinions and no initiative? That’s not partnership. That’s performance with a plus-one. This pour covers: • Why date night should be a two-player game—not a solo mission • How ...
Send us a text Mind Your Glass: Brunch Ain’t the Place for Judgment In this episode of Brunch Behavior: The Pour Report, Styles serves a fiery reminder that brunch is not church, court, or a cleanse—it’s a vibe. And nothing kills that vibe faster than folks counting drinks like they’re counting calories. If you’re watching someone else’s refills instead of sipping your own, this one’s for you (and not in a good way). This pour gets into: • Why brunch is sacred: therapy, release, and a soft re...
