The pour is strong this week, and so are the headlines. DDG has filed for sole custody of baby Halo, and we’re breaking down what that could mean for Halle and their coparenting dynamic. Plus, Diddy’s courtroom chaos continues, and the updates are messy. We tapped into all the tea and the timeline.

No Chaser:

We’re diving into the tough convo around automatically believing the victim vs. victim blaming.

Where’s the line, and why is it so blurry in the court of public opinion?

Red Cup Rules:- Don’t ask stupid questions…

The Soundtrack:

Teyana Taylor - Long Time

Whew, the timeline is HOT and we got a lot to unpack! This week we’re back in the mix with a heavy pour of tea, updates, and that signature RCC vibes .

🧨 Skilla Baby had the TL sending prayers up after a concerning post hit IG. We’re tapping in to talk about what’s going on and sending love where it’s due.

🧐 Chris Brown just got released after being held in France—and y’all already know the internet had things to say. Are we still able to separate the artist from the art… or is it time to hold some people accountable? We get into the *real* convo.

🔥 Meanwhile, Meg Thee Stallion is fed up and rightfully so. With drama swirling and narratives flying, we break down her recent posts, public responses, and how she’s reclaiming her power.

Main Topic:

Can you really separate the artist from the music? We’re diving deep into cancel culture, personal responsibility, and what it means when the music still slaps but the person behind it… not so much. 👀

🎶 The Soundtrack This Week:

Girlfriend – “Missin’ U”

Girlfriend – “Emergency”

It’s giving soft vocals with a side of stay ready energy.

Heyyyyy Cousins we're back with New Drink Partnas this week! What really goes down when beauty bosses Jess aka JAë LeGrande and Milan Moody get real about love, relationships, and all the messy, magical moments in between? In this episode, the duo pulls back the curtain on their personal journeys from hot girl seasons to soul-deep connections. We’re talking late-night convos, self-reflection, and the kind of honesty that hits different when it’s two besties with mics and mimosas.

From hilarious “Kabila cousins” memories to the hustle of building their brands, Jay and Milan let us in on what it’s like navigating friendship, femininity, and future goals—all while looking good doing it. It’s giving laughs, lessons, and a few too many "remember when" moments.

But let’s not act like it’s all cute captions and curated vibes. Who heals the healers? We go there unpacking the emotional labor that comes with always being the strong one, the time zone chaos of podcasting while booked and busy, and the little joys (like swimming with sea turtles or blowing the budget on retail therapy) that help keep us grounded. Healing looks different every day, and sometimes it’s in a spa... and sometimes it’s in a group chat at 2am.
