    Ep. 479 Who Has Shut Up Money?!

    This week on CockTales: Dirty Discussions, we’re asking the real question: Who has shut-up money?! We kick things off with travel nostalgia and vacation dreams before running straight into the hilarious reality of adulthood. We dive into the chaos of planning family vacations, organizing group trips, setting budgets, and why everyone wants a luxury trip until it’s time to pay the deposit. In this episode, we talk about: • The stress of planning trips with friends and family • Budget conversations nobody wants to have • The difference between work travel vs real vacations • Why group chats can’t plan trips to save their lives • Dream destinations vs real-life responsibilities Then it’s time for Weird Sex, and this story is truly unforgettable. A shocking medical discovery sparks a conversation about embarrassment, health, and the wild things people do in relationships. We wrap things up with Valentine’s Day vibes, listener advice, and plenty of laughs along the way. Cocktail of the Week 🍸The Emotional Intelligence Smoky, sweet, spicy, and perfectly balanced — just like the conversations.Ingredients • 2 oz mezcal • 2 oz pineapple juice • ¾ oz fresh lime juice • ½ oz agave syrup (adjust to taste) • Tajín for rim (optional) • Ice • Pineapple wedge or lime wheel for garnishDirections Lightly rim a rocks glass with Tajín (optional).

    EP. 478 The Leading Man: Mike Bless aka Michael Anthony on Healing, Dating, and "The Gift"

    February looks a little different this year… because we are letting men take the mic. To kick off our February Men’s Series, we are joined by actor, producer, veteran and content creator Mike Bless aka Michael Anthony. This conversation dives deep into dating, emotional healing, masculinity and the realities of modern relationships from a male perspective. We talk about how men process heartbreak, the role of honesty in dating, why communication looks different for men, and the idea that many men heal quietly instead of publicly. Mike opens up about accountability, emotional vulnerability, dating expectations and the importance of being honest about intentions early. Of course, we also get into power dynamics in relationships, monogamy vs honesty, the Atlanta dating scene, men wearing purses (yes, we went there), and why giving space in early dating might actually be healthy. This episode kicks off a full month of real conversations with men about love, growth, healing and relationships — and we are listening. Cocktail of the Week: The Leading Man Ingredients 2 oz bourbon  1 oz blood orange juice  ½ oz simple or honey syrup  2 dashes Angostura bitters  Orange peel garnish InstructionsAdd bourbon, blood orange juice, syrup and bitters to a mixing glass with ice.Stir for about 20–25 seconds until well chilled.Strain over a large ice cube in a rocks glass.Express the oils from an orange peel over the drink and drop it in. Sip, stare dramatically into the distance, and pretend you’re the main character. 🥃🍊 SPONSORED OFFERS FOR OUR LISTENERS For all promo codes and links for promotions in the episode and other current offers, follow this link: https://linktr.ee/cocktalesads ERIKALUST Check out ERIKALUST and use our promo code COCKTALES for 45% off! http://erikalust.com/ SOAKING WET FROM VBHEALTH Visit soakingwet.com and use code COCKTALES for 10% off!  Contact Us!

    Relationship ROI, Bottomless Mimosas & Separated Checks

    Are you getting a good Relationship ROI, or are you just operating in chaos? This week, Kiki and Medinah discuss the importance of intentionality—from your wellness routine to your brunch dates. We’re diving into why separated checks at a bottomless mimosa brunch might actually be the ultimate green flag for clarity. In This Episode: The ladies discuss the transition from "brunch friends" to "real life" support and why Medinah appreciated a guy friend being 100% upfront about financial boundaries. We also get into the "weird sex" story of the week: a romantic shower that turned into an Olympic sport when the curtain rod gave up. Plus, Kiki talks about the struggle of people always "outsourcing" their work to her—from party planning to free makeup sessions. We also cover: Intentional Health: Why your "Relationship ROI" starts with your own rest and wellness. The "Ghost" Eyebrow Incident: Why you should always have a backup makeup artist. Advice: Navigating a friendship that went cold during a season of grief and new motherhood. This Week's Cocktail: The Calm but Curious Mule A refreshing, spicy mocktail (with an optional kick).

    Ep. 476 "What's Your Superpower?" with Kiki Said So & Medinah Monroe

    What’s Your Superpower? In this episode of CockTales: Dirty Discussions, Kiki and Medinah tap into reflection, purpose, and grown-woman clarity as they unpack the question: what’s your real superpower? From unexpected “God wink” moments to conversations about confidence, imposter syndrome, and walking into rooms knowing you belong, this episode is about recognizing your value without needing permission. The ladies open up about how their strengths show up in work, relationships, and community — and why sometimes it takes a stranger, a producer, or a quiet moment to remind you that you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be. They also talk about commitment in this season of life, learning how to say no without guilt, setting boundaries that actually protect your peace, and why burnout isn’t a badge of honor. In Weird Sex, the conversation turns to curiosity, threesomes, and ethical non-monogamy — breaking down how to talk about fantasies honestly, why curiosity doesn’t equal dissatisfaction, and how consent and communication make all the difference. As always, things take a turn into real life: fostering chaotic cats, stepping back from dating, learning new skills, choosing rest, and staying grounded when life feels overwhelming. If you’ve been questioning your path, feeling stuck, or wondering whether you’re doing enough, this episode is a reminder that your presence, your voice, and your energy matter more than you think. Sometimes your superpower isn’t loud — it’s just consistent. 🍹 This Week’s Cocktail: The Soft Launch Spritz (Mocktail) A fresh, light mocktail perfect for Dry January — or spike it if you’re feeling spicy. Ingredients 3 oz fresh grapefruit juice (use less if you’re not a grapefruit girl)Splash of fresh lime juice1 oz agave or honeySparkling waterFresh rosemary sprig How to Make Shake the grapefruit juice, lime juice, and agave (or honey) with ice.Strain into a wine glass over ice, top with sparkling water, and garnish with a rosemary sprig.Before adding the rosemary, gently slap it between your palms to release the oils — pretty and aromatic.

    Ep. 475 WHO SAID THAT- PART 2!

    SPECIAL OFFER! Beducated is offering our listeners 50% off an annual membership when you click the link iand use code COCKTALES. https://beducate.me/pd2603-cocktales Last week we kicked off our “Who Said That?” recap, and this week we’re back with Part 2 — more wild clips, iconic one-liners, and a few moments that reminded us why CockTales is funny and deep when it wants to be. This episode is a continuation of last week’s trip down memory lane, pulling standout moments from different years of the show. Some clips had us crying laughing, some had us side-eyeing ourselves, and others took a surprisingly thoughtful turn — because if we’re gonna reflect, we might as well do it honestly. We talk fashion eras (yes, the Martha Stewart linen phase still stands), dating boundaries, bad decisions we didn’t make, and the difference between being open-minded and being open to everything (spoiler: not the same). We also get into why “sex is a skill,” why everybody with a microphone is not a licensed expert, and why sometimes the real growth is knowing when to stop, sit still, and get yourself together. As always, there’s plenty of foolishness, a little ministry, and a lot of “did she really say that?” energy. If you haven’t listened to Part 1, go run that back first — then come join us here. 🍹 Cocktail of the Episode French 75… But Make It Therapy You’ll need: Sparkling wineVanilla vodkaSimple syrupBailey’s (or RumChata) foamLemon twistHow to make it: Shake Bailey’s with a small splash of simple syrup until frothy. Pour vanilla vodka into a flute, top with sparkling wine, gently spoon the foam on top, and garnish with a lemon twist. Do not rush the foam unless you want chaos in a glass. 🗣 Topics We Get Into: Recapping iconic CockTales quotes and moments from past yearsThe Martha Stewart / Ina Garten aesthetic debate (still unresolved)Dating boundaries, self-control, and learning when to say noWhy being open-minded doesn’t mean being open to everythingThe difference between licensed professionals and internet “experts”Taking breaks from dating without guiltWhy sex, intimacy, and communication are skills you can actually learnFree and low-cost resources people sleep on (libraries, schools, clinics, and more)Growth, reflection, and recognizing patterns in yourselfVB Health – Soaking Wet Make every encounter slipperier, sexier, and downright sensational.

    "WHO SAID THAT" 2025 YEAR IN REVIEW

    It’s time to look back… and immediately ask ourselves, “Wait—who said that?!” In Part 1 of this two-part recap episode, Kiki and Medinah revisit some of the wildest, funniest, most unhinged moments from 2025 (with a few older classics sprinkled in), reacting to past clips in real time and reliving everything from comedian guests and dating rants to weird sex stories, hair debates, pop culture takes, and those signature CockTales side quests that somehow always lead back to food. This episode is pure commentary chaos: – Comedians we loved (and clips that still hold up… mostly) – Dating opinions that aged interestingly – Hair, weaves, man-weaves, and why honesty matters – Weird sex facts that somehow turn into social commentary – Pop culture deep dives (yes, including Game of Thrones) – Rants that start one place and end somewhere completely different Think of this as a highlight reel with commentary, context, and a little “wow… we really said that” energy. And don’t worry — this is just Part 1. There’s plenty more where this came from. 🎧 Listen, laugh, argue with us in your head, and let us know in the comments which clips took you OUT. 🍸 Today’s Cocktail: The Velvet Revolution Smooth, cozy, and perfect for a recap episode. Ingredients 1.5 oz Baileys 1 oz vanilla vodka or dark rum 1 oz cold brew coffee or espresso (optional, but highly encouraged) Ice Nutmeg or cinnamon (for garnish) How to Make It Add Baileys, vodka or rum, and cold brew to a shaker filled with ice. Shake well until chilled and silky. Strain into a coupe or rocks glass. Sprinkle nutmeg or cinnamon on top and enjoy. Cheers to closing out 2025 and easing into 2026 — raspy voices, hot takes, and all. 🥂 Visit vb.health and use code COCKTALES for 10% off  Interested in being a guest?  Please contact addie@cocktalespod.com and include your information, what makes you an interesting guest, and any relavant links!

    Ep. 473 When Honesty Gets Uncomfortable with Kiara "Kiki Said So" Walker and Medinah Monroe

    In this episode, Kiki and Medinah get into one of the hardest parts of adulthood: how to say uncomfortable things with love, tact, and intention. What starts as a casual conversation quickly turns into a deeper discussion about honesty, boundaries, emotional awareness, and why so many people avoid hard conversations altogether. From awkward truths like bad breath and body odor to deeper emotional feedback that can strain friendships and relationships, the ladies unpack why delivery matters just as much as truth. They talk about when honesty is helpful versus harmful, how personal experiences shape our ability to receive feedback, and why avoidance often feels easier than vulnerability. The episode also explores relationship expectations, emotional maturity, and a listener write-in that sparks a real conversation about compatibility, communication, and knowing when something just isn’t aligned. Along the way, Kiki reflects on personal growth, past embarrassment, family dynamics, and learning how to pause before reacting, especially when emotions are high. This is a funny, honest, and thought-provoking episode about growth, self-awareness, and learning how to communicate without tearing people down — or disappearing when things get uncomfortable. If you’ve ever struggled with telling the truth, hearing the truth, or figuring out how to say the hard thing without hurting someone, this episode is for you.
