    Black Media in the Midwest.... Journalism with Purpose with our guest Derreka Rollins

    In this powerful installment of Unapologetically Amplified, Leo sits down with Derreka Rollins, a Gary-born international business liaison, community-engagement veteran, and nontraditional journalist whose work spans more than a decade of global relationship-building, civic activation, and community-centered storytelling. As the Community Engagement Editor for Capital B Gary, Derreka stands at the intersection of journalism, community trust, and cultural advocacy. Her role isn't just about telling stories, it's about making sure the right stories are told, by centering the lived experiences, needs, and voices of real people. This episode digs deep into what it means to practice journalism with purpose — journalism rooted in empathy, accountability, and collaboration. Leo, The Squad, and Derreka explore how Black communities have often been misrepresented or ignored by mainstream media, and how platforms like Capital B are crafting a new path where truth-telling becomes legacy work. Together, they discuss why local Black journalism still matters, how engagement-driven reporting transforms communities, and what it truly takes to reshape narratives with clarity, cultural understanding, and integrity. This conversation honors the truth-tellers, the bridge-builders, and the journalists who show up for our people, not to exploit their stories, but to elevate them.  We love bringing the laughs, the healing, and the hard conversations but we wanna hear from YOU too! Your voice matters in this community we've built together.

    PGC After Dark Presents: Soft Power: Exploring Caregiver Dynamics with our guests of Orgasmic Melanin Goddesses

    Not all kink is pain, punishment, or power in the traditional sense. Some of the deepest forms of erotic connection come through care...... through being seen, soothed, protected, and safe enough to surrender. In this episode, we're exploring caregiver dynamics; the softer, nurturing side of power exchange, often rooted in daddy/mommy play, caregiver/little dynamics, or emotional dominance. This isn't about infantilization or control in the extreme sense; it's about safety, trust, and the erotic charge that comes when tenderness meets authority. We'll unpack the psychology, the practice, and the emotional complexity of this side of kink, because for many, soft power isn't weakness. It's the most potent, healing, and emotionally intimate form of dominance there is. It's grown-folk talk time, baby… and we're turnin' up the volume on the realness. You already know how we do it at PGC After Dark..... no filters, no fluff, just vibes, truth, and a whole lotta sass. We want YOUR thoughts, your reactions, and your unfiltered commentary, so don't keep it to yourself… connect with us and join the After Dark conversation: Instagram: @pgcafterdark Facebook: facebook.com/pgcafterdark YouTube: https://youtube.com/c/pgcafterdark And don't forget, we're everywhere you love to stream: 🎧 Apple 🎧 Google 🎧 Audible 🎧 Pandora 🎧 iHeartRadio 🎧 Amazon Music 🎥 Spotify 🎥 YouTube 🎥 You42 🎥 Facebook Wanna support the heat we bring week after week?

    Fetish Files, Light & Playful: Weird. Wild. Wonderfully human.

    Let's be honest, everybody's into something. Some fetishes make you raise an eyebrow, some make you giggle, and a few might just make you curious enough to Google them later (in private 👀). This week on The Phat Girl Chronicles, we're diving into the weird, wild, and wonderfully human world of fetishes; the ones people whisper about, laugh at, or sometimes proudly brag about. From balloon popping and feet pics to sploshing, furries, and the unexpected corners of online fetish communities, we're exploring the fun side of what makes people tick… and what makes them tingle. But here's the thing: this isn't about judgment — it's about curiosity, conversation, and comedy. We're unpacking how fetishes show up in pop culture, movies, and social media; how they impact relationships and self-expression; and why embracing our quirks can actually lead to better, more honest connections. We'll laugh. We'll cringe. We'll learn a little. And somewhere between "wait, people do what?!" and "oh, that kinda makes sense," we'll uncover a deeper truth that desire, in all its forms, is beautifully human. So grab your drink, get comfortable, and prepare to clutch your pearls and your phone — because this episode is serving funny, freaky, and fully unfiltered realness. You know we love bringing y'all the real, the raw, and the relatable — but it's even better when you're part of the conversation! So don't be shy, connect with us, comment, share your thoughts, and tell us how this episode hit you!

    Whispers, Moans, & Other Forbidden Sounds...... With Our Guest, Nicole The Melanated Vixxen

    This week, we're turning up the volume on intimacy. Sound has a secret power, the way a whisper grazes your ear, a moan hums through your body, or the soft drag of breath pulls you closer without a single touch. From the rhythmic scratching that teases tension to the subtle sound of lips parting, audio arousal awakens parts of the body that visuals alone can't reach. In this episode of PGC After Dark, we explore the science, psychology, and sensuality of sound. Why do certain noises trigger desire? Why does ASMR, often used for calm and focus blur so easily into erotic territory? And how can partners safely play with sound to heighten intimacy, deepen connection, and express desire in new ways? This conversation goes beyond kink, it's about communication, consent, curiosity, and rediscovering the overlooked senses that can make pleasure more profound. Because sometimes… it's not what you see that turns you on..... it's what you hear. We wanna hear ALL your thoughts, wild takes, and juicy questions!

    Flirty Food & Sexy Treats: Where Taste Meets Temptation

    What happens when pleasure meets the plate? Food has always been sensual, the way it looks, the way it smells, the way it melts and lingers; but this week, we're taking it a step further. On this episode of The Phat Girl Chronicles, we're exploring the delicious intersection of taste, touch, and temptation. We're talking about aphrodisiacs that awaken desire, edible adventures that get a little messy, and those unforgettable moments when one bite feels just as good as a kiss. From strawberries and chocolate to whipped cream, honey drizzles, and full-on food fantasies, this is a conversation that proves indulgence isn't just for the kitchen — it's a love language all its own. But beyond the play and the pleasure, we're also breaking down why food has such a powerful connection to intimacy. Whether it's cooking together, feeding someone you love, or the vulnerability of sharing a meal, food becomes a bridge between bodies, senses, and emotions. It's foreplay you can taste. Expect laughter, a few confessions, and maybe a little inspiration for your next date night or solo self-care snack. Because on this episode, we're not just talking about what's on the menu — we're redefining what it means to be fed. We love bringing the laughs, the healing, and the hard conversations—but we wanna hear from YOU too! Your voice matters in this community we've built together.

    Raw Desire: The Power of Primal Play with our guests, Leigh LaRìe & Nik B of The Dirty Roses Podcast

    It's time to unleash your inner beast. Primal play is all about tapping into raw, untamed desire — growling, scratching, biting, and letting instinct take over. It's passion stripped of performance, where touch becomes communication and trust is the heartbeat of connection. In this episode of PGC After Dark, we explore why primal instincts are so deeply erotic, how consent and vulnerability shape these experiences, and ways couples can safely and playfully tap into their wild side. We're joined by Leigh LaRìe Bohannon and Nichole "Nik B" Bain....... the dynamic duo behind the Dirty Roses Podcast. Leigh LaRìe Bohannon, a Portland native and radio powerhouse, has spent years shaping sound and storytelling from Alabama to the Pacific Northwest. With roots in radio at 103.1 WEUP in Huntsville, AL and a background in artist development, community engagement, and media promotions, Leigh brings heart, humor, and hard truths to every conversation. After returning home to Portland, she hosted The Takeover on 107.1 KMHD and later launched Dirty Roses Podcast; a raw, real, and relatable space where she and her co-host explore love, lust, and life after her 21-year marriage.  Nichole L.L. Bain, known to listeners as Nik B, is a fresh yet captivating voice in the podcasting world. With degrees in Graphic Design from Norfolk State University and Business Administration from Concordia University, she's as grounded as she is witty. As co-host of Dirty Roses, Nik blends humor, hope, and hard-earned experience to spark real conversations about love, lessons, and modern dating, all through the lens of authenticity and self-discovery. Together, Leigh and Nik bring unfiltered energy, laughter, and perspective to the table, making them the perfect guests for this primal, playful, and power-packed conversation. So let's talk instincts, intimacy, and the freedom of surrender; because when you strip away the noise, desire has a language all its own.

    The Intimacy We Overlook: Moving Beyond the Bedroom

    When most people hear the word intimacy, the mind immediately jumps to sex, but intimacy is so much more layered than what happens in the bedroom. In this episode of PGC After Dark, we're slowing things down and peeling back those layers to talk about the intimacy that often gets overlooked: the quiet, vulnerable, soul-deep moments that truly connect us to another person.From emotional intimacy that comes with feeling seen and understood, to intellectual intimacy found in late-night conversations and shared curiosity, to spiritual intimacy rooted in prayer, rituals, or aligned beliefs..... we're exploring all the ways closeness can show up in our lives. We'll also talk about creative intimacy, everyday gestures that strengthen bonds, and how our upbringing and unhealed wounds can block us from fully leaning into those experiences.This isn't just about relationships, it's about friendships, community, and the way we show up with people we love. It's about breaking free from the idea that intimacy has to be physical and learning how to nurture connections that feed us on every level.So grab your glass, dim the lights, and join us for a conversation that's deeper, softer, and more vulnerable than the usual After Dark talk. It's about intimacy, but in ways that might surprise you.We're bringing the vibes, the bold convos, and the late-night realness—so don't be shy, come kick it with us!We wanna hear ALL your thoughts, wild takes, and juicy questions!
