Our2cents Podcast

Today, Mohna and BJ discuss shoes. The comfortable ones. The ones you wear daily, even when they don't match your attire. You put these shoes on in a heartbeat, whenever you try to be comfortable. The problem is that you may be too comfortable. Which could be the reason why there is little to no growth. The shoes you may be wearing may effect the outfit of your life, and how everything coordinates with each other! Have you ever thought about that? Questions that are posed in this episode are: 1. Whose shoe are you trying to fill? - Yours or someone you love or look up to? 2. Are your shoes to small? - Is the shoes you are filling a space much too small, that prevents proper position, comfort, and footing? 3. Does the shoes match the Outfit? - How does your comfort effect the outfit of your life? Are you lazy because of your comfort zone? Are you slothful to try on a new shoe and outfit, to change life's appearance? 4. Do you buy shoes you know you cant fit? - Buying things that you intend to grow into. Does t

  Every Episode seems like we are trying our hardest to lift our spirits and fight through another week. So this week's episode of Our2Cents was spent making one declaration. TO SAY NO MORE. And it can be put to use any way you would like to use it....whether you chose to say NO more than you say YES. Or, you say NO MORE when it comes to being used, abused, mistreated, taken advantage of, etc. Its time to reclaim your peace and sanity. That was pretty much the entire conversation. We talked about how we communicate our not so positive feelings and emotions. Mohna still shows empathy and compassion. BJ has completely thrown both hands up. But overall, a person's no is their no...whether you like it or not!!! Mohna Lyssaa gave us her "Comfort Zones Is For Suckas" that she affectionately titled WWBJD (What Would BJ Do??)...she also states how comfort doesn't make much of a difference, in her current stage of life. She wants to navigate through discomfort with more determination, bravery, and willingness. BJ

Welcome to Episode 15 of the Our2Cents Podcast. Today we discussed quite a few things. From a brief tale of Mohna Lyssaa giving her boyfriend the boot, we somehow ended up talking about support when it comes to men. How much do you give a man, in the event he is down? Is he entitled? How much support do you get for just being a human being? Is there a point to say "fuck it"??? Or even "fuck you"??? BJ goes into Comfort Zones Are For Suckaz, detailing how perspective can greatly affect rejection and disappointments. Something that we all experience. How you view being told no can make or break you. It's a valuable lesson in love and adulthood. A "No" doesn't mean you missed out. It sometimes means that you need to readjust your approach. Then we discuss our topic...Mary J Blige made the declaration that she will insist that the only men she will be involved with will be men who make more than her. Many women sympathize, and agree, with her sentiments. But none question her judgments in picking that man. There

Good day to all of you amazing people that are returning to listen to Mohna Lyssaa and BJ talk their shit! Our2Cents is back with a new episode that was very different than any other episode so far. Today we talk about the pimp game. Where did it come from? How did it start? Is it still alive? From doing our "Googles" we got a few pointers....So with this conversation, we delved into our experiences and interpretations. And found out that it's very possible that it's under a different name....called sex trafficking. Mohna kicks off the show with a vivid tale of her childhood innocence. Chronicling a typical summer day riding her bike to a park with a friend. Being very observant to her surroundings, she notices a suspicious vehicle. Questioning her safety, she decides to leave and head back home. The car proceeded to follow. Could she have been prey? Was this a potential abduction? This led us into our conversation. BJ talks about his misunderstanding of what pimp actually meant. Believing it to be a glamoriz

  Welcome Back to Our2Cents Podcast. We are sorry we kept you guys waiting so long on our return. But we are back. Very much still uncertain to what we have to look forward to in 2019 with this show. But very much prepared to approach the journey with optimism, courage, and great content.  Today's episode is a recap of our 2018. Explaining why things crumbled. Mistakes we made as creatives. The next stage going forward. We are owning our shit from 2018, and using it as inspiration for a better 2019. There is a moment that we are both chasing after. Instead of having so many fucked up moments to recap, we want "Fuck It Up" moments. Where you step into certain spaces and cant believe its you. Leaving people in in disbelief when they think about how far you've come. We want to turn our fucked up moments into "Fuck It Up" moments. We will start the quest for those moments where we are! Take a listen to our comeback episode. Hope you enjoy it! If not, we are coming back even harder the next episode!!!!

Welcome back to another episode of Our2Cents Podcast. We are here with another episode of great dialogue. This episode is a great dialogue about the mental health needed to withstand an imbalanced partnership...whether friendship, relationship, or marriage. A few days ago, a pastor named John Gray, made a declarative statement that his wife was a covering to him, in time of him dealing with some insecurities/fragility in his manhood. He also stated that his wife endured more pain birthing him, than she did their children. That sent women into an outrage, because he never once considered her humanity, while she assisted in his! Women began to show their disgust for him, and even his wife for her tolerance. But is that because he used her for his own personal gains? Or because she was actually able to reap the reward of sticking with a man she sacrificed for...and you didnt?...or couldn't? We brought someone along to help us break down this dysfunction. We have TaKenyah, a very outspoken podcast trailblazer, wh

Welcome Back!!! Did you miss us (certainly hope so!!!)??? Mohna and BJ are back from a brief hiatus to talk about a few things. And its good too!!! We start the show by discussing whats been going on, that had us miss a few drop dates. We are making strides to adjust to our circumstances, so that we wont miss release dates going further. But nonetheless, we bring you back up to speed with a very dope conversation.Somehow, from Mohna discussing an encounter with the meat man at Kroger...we flow into a conversation about the male anatomy. Or the lack thereof. Stemming from a twitter post from a very well known podcaster, comes a conversation that is bound to make men uncomfortable. We talk dick size, over compensated confidence, stroke of ego, and countless other man issues we all know and see daily. But the difference is that Our2Cents has a more constructive approach to the criticisms. We offer suggestions that will aid in the struggles men go through with dealing with women criticizing them for the member. W

Today's episode is titled "The Future Is Feminine"...and it features @mohna.lyssaa and @penroseeames ... the conversation touches on the current state of feminism, and the direction it will take the world. Now that women have taken reign over entertainment, politics, sports, etc...Women have come forward, and are dominating. And men have become fragile, emotional, desperate, and even envious...simply because the tides are turning. Is it possible that men are uncomfortable with the future taking shape, simply because the women are in the forefront? And refuse to be silenced, and placed in the position that men now stand in....which is the background? Have men now begin to understand what it means to be a female, in a male dominated world? We have a layered conversation that touches several topics. We talk about communication. How men feel like women have an unorthodox way of communicating, that only they understand. Is the possibility of your misunderstanding due to lack of listening? Maybe this is why they ar

Episode 10: The "Cancelled" Culture (feat. Penrose Eames) by Mohna Lyssaa\Dergobj

Today's episode of Change The Subject deals with making certain life choices, in order to improve the quality of living you have. BJ takes an every day occurrence and turns into a very talk worthy conversation. Have you every asked yourself that question...."What Do You Do For A Living??? And when we say "living", we don't mean for money...or as an occupation. We are discussing the steps to living your absolute best life possible... We touch on partnership as well. giving some perspective to why partnership is important. How labeling certain responsibilities man/woman's jobs can be very inconsiderate of the other person. How to be of support of someone, even when you are uncapable of actually handling any parts of the other person's responsibility. Take a listen as we discuss and dissect or living arrangements. Is it time for our lives to be rearranged???

Chapter 1: No Disrespect is officially up + available on SoundCloud. Mohna poses the question, "what do you do when the other parent is unintentionally tainting your child's esteem?" And when attempting to educate why they are wrong, you are dismissed and essentially told to know your place? Listen to my story and why I feel more conversations surrounding different family dynamics such as blended families are very important and in need of taking place. Welcome to FREEFALL: The Podcast!!! Follow @mohna.lyssaa and the @thefreefallbrand....

This show is about Avery, among other things. Take a listen!

Episode 9: The Ball Is In Your Court by Mohna Lyssaa\Dergobj

Today's episode finds Mohna Lyssaa in a introspective place, where she recognizes the lack of dialogue and communication from men in regards to women. And as much as it may feel good to know that women care, for most guys there is nothing to be excited about. simply because for every one woman who may show compassion for men...there are droves of other women who publicly beg to differ. Titled, Personalized Generalizations, today's episode discusses toxic humanities that allow people to rate, and grade, people based on specifics that don't even reflect everyone you encounter. and from this, you internalize so many negative energies and thoughts of your experiences...simply to spew them at innocent people. Mohna shows compassion by address her own personal experiences head on, by actually having to confront the person that hurt you; instead of the likeness of those that hurt you. taking responsibility for the feelings. Even the ones you didn't create. By asking BJ, about his feelings on such matters, we find th

BJ comes with another intense (and intoxicated) episode of Change The Subject. Titled, The Conditions of Unconditional, BJ talks with Miss Kay about the circumstances that your conditions place on you when looking for true love. The argument BJ presents is that some cases of unconditional love aren't healthy....and could mean excessive baggage. KD's argument was that despite the baggage, someone should still be there. And from there....it got intense. We discuss the many variables that comes from the idea of unconditional love. Whether it be lessening your own standards in the beginning, that yield you no result in the end. Or, how a person who lacks may just need a chance, not be graded. We talk the difference between standards and preferences....privilege and morals....AND baggage versus trauma. It was a very interesting conversation to say the least. Listen to this episode and tell BJ (and MISS KAY DRUNK ASS) what you think. Which side do you agree or disagree with? or is there a side at all??

Today's episode is called Legs Spread A Quarter Til Three. Is all starts from Mohna Lyssaa posing a question....is there a difference between promiscuity and being a hoe? BJ begins to explain how he believes there is a difference. And the conversation followed... We also discussed Jesse Peterson's video of him showing up to last year's slut walk to shame women. Was the young lady right for owning her sexuality? Should she be ashamed of who she is, or would like to be?? We define the term hoe for those who believe there is such a thing. And make you aware of whether we feel it's good or bad. We talk whores. Whores who get nothing but empty sex. Whores with no purpose. Whores in such of something they've been missing from their sexual experiences. Hoes living their best lives sexually. Can hoes be promiscuous? Is there a hoe cut off? All these questions and more....tune in now to episode 7‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

Its another Friday...and another episode of Change The Subject. Today's conversation was recorded in Cleveland, Ohio, with my brothers PlayboyDaDJ, DJ Brainstorm (The Number 4 and The Letter Uuuuu!!!) and their newest member, Big Dev216 (EVERYWHERE!!!!)..... BJ decided to take the trip to kick it with the bros and catch up. And from us kickin it, came this conversation. This episode talks about support systems within our brotherhoods. Oftentimes, as men, we grow. Sometimes we OUTGROW. In these growths, we find that there are strains in our relationships that we have to deal with in order for our brotherhoods to remain solid. This is not always easy. these four kings decided to weigh in on the possibilities. Things we discuss in the convo are: Do you have to seperate to elevate? is it a possibility that your growth requires so much space that the crew doesn't fit that space and time? Is it wrong to have individual goals, while chasing the team's dreams? Is separating from the squad sucka shit?...or being brave

Episode 6 of The Our2Cents Podcast is called The Parent Trap. This a relative conversation to the ideas of Pro Choice. Mohna and BJ deal with the issues of traditional parenting from a circumstance of a parent making a commitment to a male child in a toy store. In the situation of you committing to buying your child any toy of their choice, your son chooses a baby doll. Would you as a parent make that purchase? Does the thought alone terrify you? We discuss how we oppress children with our traditionalist views and perspectives, with the choices we make for our children. Also, how our choices affect our children in making some of their own. We talk about the concepts of church, and how our religious beliefs can be oppressive as well. Just because you serve God does not mean you become God. We talk judgements, teachable moments, and giving children the chance to have a voice. There is a possibility that there are parents who have been trapped in the belief that "do as I say and not as I do" "because I'm your ma

Waddup Doe? We are finally here for the first official episode of Change the Subject. The show, titled Heavy Weight Title Holders, is featuring two of your podcast favorites: Mr. Stealyagirlonapanda himself, Danny from The Danny and Cleo Show; and Killa Kai a.k.a. Titties All Summa 18!!!! Dergobj took a trip to Philly to catch up with them, and just so happen to record a show in that process. We were able to record a very dope conversation for the listeners. Heavy Weight Title Holders challenges your perspectives when it comes to the titles and spaces you let people occupy in your life. With constant struggles and separations happening every single day, we ask this question: Does everyone in your life value their title? Does each person who holds a position in your life feel that their title comes as a responsibility? Or with entitlement? Kai tells us about the separation of a Heavy Weight Title Holder we know as a "best friend". We often look at circumstances as if we are the victims. But have you ever asked

Today is the day for Mohna and BJ to drop their 2 cents on polyamory and pansexuality. This all started when Mohna convinced BJ to binge watch the Nexflix special, She's Gotta Have It. With little to no expectation, BJ found himself questioning so many things about Polyamory and Pansexual ideals.... Is monogamy a form of possession or captivity? Should we all experience love, with unrestricted freedom and liberations? Can monogamy be a roadblock to finding one self? Are you defined?...or developed by how many sexual experiences you may have had in your past? We talk about the many issues of monogamy that seem to be completely absent from the poly or pan life. It was a very introspective conversation, with so many more questions left to be asked and answered. Take a listen and tell us what you think. With so many people today subscribing to a more liberated way of relationship building....we had to ask, "Is monogamy a thing of the past?" Join us in the conversation as we exchange ideas. Also suggest other show
