  • Eccentric Baby Names...Lifetime of Ridicule or Success?

    14/08/2013 Duration: 54min

    From Blue Ivy (Jay Z and Beyonce) and North (Kanye and Kim K) to Apple (Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin) and Jermajesty (Jermaine Jackson), celebrities are taking baby names to a new level. But what about the children who aren’t born to wealthy and/or famous parents? How will their name affect them growing up and in the workforce? Studies show that racial bias still exists in hiring especially when it comes to “commonly used” African-American names. My guests, Jennifer Moss, author of “The One-in-a-Million Baby Name Book” and curator of babynames.com and Tami Cook, an aesthetician, who decided to shorten her name because of her profession, join me to discuss their take on the baby naming phenomenon and whether that can truly determine the success of a child.   Plus I also run down the OTR (Off the Record) Report including personal tidbits and pop culture news that will be sure to make you blush…maybe.

  • New Wave of Intimacy? Sexting, Snapchat, & the Sh*t In Btwn

    29/05/2013 Duration: 37min

    In a generation of fleeting messages and drive by hellos, social media and phone apps are starting to replace some forms of intimacy and face time (no not the Apple product). In a span of a few years, millennials went from texting to sexting, late night creeping with a sexy trench coat on to an iPhone app called Snapchat. It’s as if convenience has replaced imagination. A note on your doorstep with the scent of Burberry perfume that you have to mail or a half naked picture that you can roll over and view in your bed…most of us have been there. The dichotomy is unreal so I’m choosing to go a little bit deeper. Pun intended. Join me as my guests break down their Intima-Tude (intimacy views) and the evolution of what I call pseudo-intimacy. Are you a sexter or a late night creeper? Email your questions and comments to info@georgettepierre.com for an opportunity of it being read on air.

  • Off the Record with Grammy Nominated Producer MASON LEVY

    22/05/2013 Duration: 10min

    In a previously recorded special edition of Off the Record with Georgette Pierre, I took my radio show on the road. While in LA, I met up with Grammy nominated producer, Mason Levy, known for his work on Justin Bieber's hit single "Boyfriend", Maroon 5's "Daylight", and much more…all at the age of 22. We met up in beautiful Pasadena and what was so inspiring about his story was his humility, having achieved his level of success at such a young age but his drive to tell his story through what he loves to do. Having signed a publishing deal at such a young age, his story is nowhere near over and our conversation was just the beginning.

  • Women in Media, Power Struggle or EmPOWERment?

    26/03/2013 Duration: 30min

    Women have always known way before Beyonce’s song, “Girls (Run the World)”, that we possess a lot of power and can hold our own but it isn’t just enough to say that especially in male dominated industries like media and entertainment. The backbiting, the glass ceiling, challenges that women face opposed to men, and even what defines the characteristics of the New Age Woman are constantly being debated. In celebration of Women’s History Month, my guests join me tonight to discuss their views on powerhouse women in media, women that have inspired them in their fields, and how their experiences shaped their views on supporting other women. Plus I’ll run down the latest headlines in pop culture news with my friend/budding comedian @NormmyNorm. Subscribe to our free podcast on iTunes.

  • Complex Simplicity 103: Is Chivalry Dead?

    15/02/2012 Duration: 57min

      With the younger generation being ushered in and traditional ways seemingly being ushered out, it’s hard to think that one would expect being talked to or treated a certain way until now. The topic of chivalry and societal expectations of how men should treat women has been distortions and the lack thereof has become all too commonplace. With contradicting images of women being disrespected and misogynistic lyrics ringing loud in speaker boxes everywhere, is it a surprise that some women may accept less than what they deserves? Or men treating women less than what they want to put effort into? From various conversations with guy and girl friends, I would hear a range of views on what happened to chivalry in our day and age.  Most women think chivalry is dead. Some men may beg to differ citing women are partially to blame for that. But are they? Having experienced both the disrespect and the utmost respect, I thought this conversation would be interesting to say the least. Ranging from the super, chivalr
