    Szn 2 Ep. 8: "Normalize It"
    Oct 14 2020

    Happy Birthday to Chris, now 33 years old. Joined by Fly Ty and Pretty Tonie the Complicated Simplicity team recaps some ongoings from the past week including the Vice Presidential debate, Tory Lanez indictment, and the Lakers championship before getting to the main subject of the week. Why is it that we cannot be ok with not being ok?  Whether it be financially, mentally or physically we should be ok with embracing the struggle but clearly we're not there yet. So we try to deal with the the root of why and explore what language can we use to communicate these hardships and what systems can be put into place to help when we hit a rough patch.

    Szn 2 Ep. 7: "Gimme The Gunshots"
    Oct 7 2020
    The CS starts off with a recap of Tyana's successful vendor event at the masked melanin market. After which we switch to a conversation about the changing beauty standards of the world and if there are actually any beauty standards at all or if we've reached a point where we create our own. Also do women wear makeup because of an insecurity or just because they like it? And why do men feel they have the right to inject their opinion or preference when no one asked them?The 2nd of the show took a k-turn to discuss representation in modern tv and entertainment and if the community is still struggling with homophobia, transphobia and many other forms of discrimination overtly or unknowingly. A lot of interesting takes were shared. Check it out.

    In order to learn and understand you have to have tough conversations. This week is no different. In light of the recent album released by Tory Lanez, the CS team discussed the overall impact of what such an act entails. It's not about the music. It's more about the disrespect, the gaslighting, the lack of protection and the outright disregard for black women. Although this Tory and Meg's situation is a hot topic the issue runs much deeper and we attempt uncover some of those reasons and provide some insight on our personal feelings and experiences. Tune in and share with a friend!Intro song: KW snippetUpcoming event: 5footer essentials will be at the Melanin Market on 10/4/20 from 8am-2pmFollow us:Instagram: @complicatedsimplicitypodcastFacebook: Complicated Simplicity PodcastTwitter: CSimplicitypod
