Colorado?! How DARE YOU!
December 20, 2023 12:19 - 13 minutes - 12.7 MBY'all, what Colorado is doing to former President Trump is both petty and irresponsible. These types of moves are going to have very far reaching consequences that I personally don't believe have been seriously considered. These state and federal government entities are playing a very stupid game in our faces and in the end, who ends up losing? Regular folks like you and me. What has happened to us?
Just Another Day
December 13, 2023 00:16 - 11 minutes - 11 MBHear me talk about my day. If you enjoyed the background music, it's the instrumental version of Lana Del Rey's 'Salvatore' from her amazing 'Honeymoon' album. One of my favorite songs from her and definitely my favorite song on the album.
Living with HIV: Undetectable means Untransmittable
December 11, 2023 23:22 - 35 minutes - 33 MBThe gay community still has a lot to learn regarding the stigma around HIV. Most of us are not whores, but broken people who made terrible decisions at dark moments in their lives. We shouldn't be punished for that. Living with HIV is punishment enough.

December 01, 2023 17:00 - 20 minutes - 19.3 MBI know I'm late to the party, but I am eternally grateful for the people in my life that mean the most to me.

November 21, 2023 12:56 - 45 minutes - 42.5 MBIn the United States, if you don't have health insurance, you could be in for a world of hurt. Add to the fact that most companies don't want to pay you a livable wage and you're going to be in some deep trouble.
Western Values: How Much Is Enough?
October 26, 2023 21:32 - 38 minutes - 35.8 MBWhen it comes to the west (America) we put out that we are more self-aware and capable than we really are. Our government is supposed to look out for us but they're more concerned with growing their legacy than looking out for the people who put them into power.
Express Yourself with MUSIC!
October 21, 2023 17:00 - 41 minutes - 38.7 MBMusic is like a language we as humans can all speak together that can open doors and bring us together. Whether it's to dance or cry, music can do wonders for the heart and mind. Songs to check out Turbulence by P!NK Saturday nights by Khalid Talk of the town by Elle King Power of the Dream by Celine Dion Superstar by Luther Vandross Count on Me by Whitney Houston All great songs for very different moods. What have you listened to lately? What could you recommend me?
Be Your Own Hero!

Curb Those Expectations!
October 13, 2023 05:13 - 18 minutes - 16.7 MBThe only person in life you should EVER compete with is yourself. Competition can be a good thing in some cases, but in many instances, it can cause a plethora of self doubt and emotionally harmful thoughts. Keep everyone else out of your line of sight and keep on keeping on. The prize will come to you in time.
I Saw P!NK and Beyoncé
October 04, 2023 05:40 - 38 minutes - 35.7 MBI am taking my late mother's advice and living life so true to fashion I decided to go to my first concert EVER and I saw none other than Queen Bee herself. I was super thrilled to have experienced this one time show but even more thrilled that Ticketmaster decided to offer me a discount ticket to see P!NK three days later for only $50! Of course I took the opportunity and had a much better time than I expected, but I don't know why I was so surprised, because P!NK is notorious for putting on...
Who You Know
June 03, 2023 16:09 - 27 minutes - 25.3 MBSometimes, knowing something means nothing when the other guy knows nothing but knows somebody.
Who Are You Looking For?
May 29, 2023 23:37 - 23 minutes - 21.6 MBIn a world full of social media dating apps, finding the right person can be incredibly difficult, if not impossible. Are you willing to sacrifice a list of wants from a stranger who doesn't exist, for a person who could make you happy or will you pass up someone of substance for small talk?
A Message to My Listeners
April 24, 2023 04:59 - 3 minutes - 1.67 MBThank you for all of your support!
Representation In Media: How Does It Make You Feel?
April 20, 2023 02:36 - 44 minutes - 41.5 MBIn the United States and presumably in other parts of the world, representation in media has started to become a hot button topic. Many people believe that we as a society should have equal representation, but to add more, means to take away from some... Or does it? That's what this episode is all about.
The Gym: Gen Z Ruined It
April 19, 2023 07:30 - 28 minutes - 26.8 MBThe gym used to be a place to work out and push yourself to become healthier. Now, it's becoming a place to hang out, make fun of strangers, peacock and get in the way and be obnoxious. When did this change happen and why does it persist?
Ban TikTok
March 24, 2023 18:25 - 36 minutes - 33.9 MBTiktok is controlled by a country known to have an aggressive history with the United States of America. This app could fundamentally aid the Chinese government with espionage within the USA without actually having to come here. If there’s any credibility to the accusations that tiktok is using personal data from American citizens with malicious intent, then a ban is necessary. After all, many domestic social media platforms are banned there. Looking at you Facebook and Instagram.
My Mom Died
March 10, 2023 06:00 - 14 minutes - 13 MBOn January, 19, 2023, my mother passed. She lived a very unhappy life that I got to witness first hand. Ever since I was little, I was always her cheerleader except for the end, when she needed me most. I do feel a sense of guilt about it, but I can't dwell on it now.

Happy Halloween: 2022
October 31, 2022 11:26 - 7 minutes - 7.16 MBThis nightmare of mine actually happened to me tonight and I'm am not too happy about it. I've never been afraid of scary movies, but I'm home alone having dreams like this and it is not ok!
2022 Book Burnings in America
October 26, 2022 02:43 - 28 minutes - 26.1 MBI Don't honestly understand why so many people are hell-bent on policing, other people's morality! What I choose to let my children be exposed to is none of your business, especially when it comes to books that you have never read and that your kids will never read! Why are so many people concerned about this book that's in the media called 'This Book is Gay'?! I don't understand. If you don't want your child to be exposed to stuff like this, then home school them, because I can assure you, a...
Negro Please! The four "N" words!
October 11, 2022 03:20 - 17 minutes - 15.8 MBThere are four versions of the "N" word. Two that are acceptable. Two, that are not! In this episode I will be using all four of them to educate people on their differences. If you know someone that needs to hear this, please share it with them, because we have come too far to turn back now.
Dogs: Mans Best Friend!
September 25, 2022 17:10 - 44 minutes - 41 MBDuring the pandemic, dogs and other animals were used to cope with loneliness and isolation. Once the pandemic ended, these animals were thrown into shelters, at least by American shelter reports, and largely forgotten. If you do not have the time, resources or heart to take care of another living creature, then please, do NOT go out and buy one. These animals have feelings, just like you or I and they deserve to be loved and protected just the same.
I Smell a Gay!
September 24, 2022 08:01 - 25 minutes - 23.9 MBThis is an "I told you so" episode. Don't you even think about questioning a gay man's gaydar! We can sniff out other gays like a pig looking for truffles.
Interview with Quintrell: To Validate or Invalidate.
September 16, 2022 05:00 - 58 minutes - 54.3 MBThis interview with Quintrell is about the previous episode I posted. He was the author of the Facebook post that started this whole, wild thing that has been, in my opinion, completely blown out of proportion. If you're going to listen to the episode, you should have heard the previous one for some context.
To Validate or Invalidate? That is the Question.
September 13, 2022 22:27 - 33 minutes - 31 MBValidation is important for growth in both this society and on the world stage. Whether or not you agree with someone is moot. Their experiences should matter, just like mine or yours.

September 07, 2022 03:51 - 43 minutes - 40.4 MB"We are predisposed to repeat the same patterns in life until we confront the root of the issue." ~ Algernon Krieger.

Student Loan Debt. To Forgive or Not, That Is The Question!
August 25, 2022 06:14 - 30 minutes - 28.3 MBBiden has declared student loan debt forgiveness and the United States of America has gone nuts. So many people have so much to say, yet no one is going after the institutions who created the problem in the first place. I get it, you don't want to have your taxes used to pay someone else's debts, but do you really get a say? Do you honestly know what your taxes are already going towards anyway?
Sometimes, It's Not About You
August 22, 2022 00:48 - 17 minutes - 16.4 MBThis is a dual episode where I clear some things up about ep 317, aka, "Please pick me. Please?!".

August 15, 2022 01:27 - 26 minutes - 24.5 MBWhat's a "Pick Me" person? Someone who goes out of their way to please others by altering their own personalities and acting completely oblivious to the fact that they're doing it, even though they are fully aware that they are. If you think this is the healthiest course of action, I won't be the one to stand in your way. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/king_kyree77/support

Gays Online: Judging Profiles
June 08, 2022 13:12 - 46 minutes - 42.7 MBHere you have me judging people at 7:20 am based off of their Grindr profiles. Some of them are gross. Some are funny. Some are sad and some just downright mean. I know this is petty of me, but I just couldn't help myself!
It's Pride 2022: Do You Feel Proud?
June 01, 2022 23:59 - 28 minutes - 26.1 MBEvery year, you have June come around signifying PRIDE for the LGBTQA+ community and every year I care less and less. Why? Because I know too much about the predatory tactics of the corporate world looking to capitalize on marginalized groups just to earn some money. I also don't enjoy being on the outskirts of the LGBT group because of my racial status. Many people of color feel excluded during Pride month because we are often never included. We can only grow as a community if we want to and...

So We Wanna Talk About Mothers?!!
May 09, 2022 16:20 - 43 minutes - 40.2 MBFamily can mean so much to do many. For me, it means a lot of negativity.

Below is a link to a very special talk regarding self worth, if you have the time, please check it out as a dear friend of mine showed me that sometimes, people simply cannot handle your light. https://youtu.be/CWpiCOmbVuY
Big Boys Don't Cry
May 01, 2022 16:17 - 32 minutes - 30.2 MBWe're being distracted by the media again with the trial of Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard, but this type of distraction is rather interesting. Men are expected to adhere to specific roles here in America regardless of how regressive and harmful those roles may be or what kind of toll it takes on the human psyche. I don't believe Johnny is completely innocent, but he's far and away the monster Amber made him out to be. Domestic abuse comes in several different forms, folks. Sometimes, the victim...
America's Slapstick Priorities
April 11, 2022 21:12 - 12 minutes - 11.2 MBWhat does it say about a nation who cares more about a celebrity slapping another more than a war in Europe claiming innocent lives? Nothing good, I assure you!
