Blunt Talk

Welcome to Blunt Talk, where we leave the bullshit to the bullshitters. Sit down, plug in those overly expensive headphones and get in on the conversation. We discuss topics that range from politics, society, relationships, religion, self-improvement, and mental health. This isn’t the show for the easily offended or the person who prefers to keep their opinion to themselves. Our purpose is to facilitate meaningful conversation to help us connect and discover the paradox, that perhaps our differences bring us together as opposed to separating us!

    In this episode we discuss the road blocks that plague the millenial generation. In addition, we touch on the often overlooked impact that the millennial generation has had on society over the past two decades. We are responsible for the election of the first African American President Barack Obama, and we are regarded as the most ethnic and diverse generation to ever live. We also touched the topic of immigration, referring to the new Netflix documentary "Out of Many, One." A documentary that follows the lives of undocumented immigrants who currently have their green card and are awaiting citizenship.

    Episode 4: Domestic Abuse: Why Men are Left in the Dark.

    According to the Center for Disease Control 40% of men experience domestic violence at one point in their lives or another. While we understand that domestic violence against any person is unacceptable, men are the most under protected and under represented group of people in regard to this issue. In this episode we discuss how gender plays a pivotal role in how we perceive domestic abuse. In addition, we discuss how these gender stereotypes actually are the catalyst that has kept this issue growing steadily for decades. Indulge yourself in some BLUNT TALK, and lets raise awareness and become apart of the solution. A solution that will encourage more healthy and fulfilling relationships. As well as empowering men to think and live beyond gender restraints.

YUP! that is anxiety!

    Episode 1: Sexuality: How it influences our lives.

    In his very first episode of "Blunt Talk," Alvin chats with actress Maria about sexuality and how it influences our lives. Why do we follow gender roles? Why don't we hold men to the same standards that we hold women when it comes to dating?
