Bougie crew step into the bougie den as “we listen, but we don’t judge” and we talk about “the suspects.” These games came about on social media, specifically on Instagram and some of them have been the most hilarious others have been the most embarrassing. Nevertheless, what a time we had trying to come up with schemes, and not judging the fact that you have divulged your interpersonal thoughts is almost the perfect recipe to be judged. We expect you to get your laugh on, take a sip, sit back a...

We also give more input on whole Diddy situation, and even refer to some the most sensationalized court cases we remember from our childhood, like OJ Simpson. Is there priviledge with a certain sector of folk w...

Alright Bougie Babes and Bros! We made it through another presidential election. This one has probably been the most important and perhaps will rival for the most historical election of our lifetimes; and though it has been a heavy week, we get on the mic to give our thoughts on the results, our mindset moving forward, and hopefully provide some levity and encouragement along the way. This week's convo (which was recorded on the night following election day) is just about as candid and real as i...

What's Good Bougie Babes and Bougie Bro's! Thank you for your patience, and sorry to keep you waiting! So we know we're late with this one but we had a lot going on last week with our latest homecoming celebration!

Bougie Babeez! It has indeed been a week to say the least. One thing that none of us could miss was the back-and-forth blasting that has been going on between popular rap star Cardi B, and her estranged and soon-to-be divorced husband, Offset (from rap group Migos). We all know Cardi from Love & Hip Hop fame, which she only appeared on for a few seasons and quickly used the notoriety to glow up her music career; but it seems like with the posts she and Offset have made, she is back to realit...

What's Good Bougie Babes!?!? Check out our latest live recordings; This weeks' episode is from a live conversation we recently had to address some recent beef that our very own Erica Patrice noticed amongst fellow podcast and social media personalities Tony Gaskins and Laterras Whitfield ("Dear Future Wifey"). Though both are prominent figures on the interwebs and in similar lanes, Tony recently took jabs at Laterras and we break it down. The "Crabs in a Barrel" syndrome is very familiar within ...

Did HE do wrong? Step into the Bougie Den to discuss music mogul-producer-artist-party extraordinaire and freak, Sean “Puff Daddy/Diddy” Combs. Was Cassie the catalyst of all of this debauchery? Will other well-known artists and entertainers be implicated since there is video? Why so many bottles of lube and baby oil and who counted them? Will he be able to circumvent any charges due to his vast amount of finances? -B, The Rich Uncle Send us a text...

Bougette's and Bougetto's, this one's for you! Have you ever been called Bougie, Fancy, highfaluting, or extra? WE ALL HAVE, I mean come on; its in the name of our podcast! This week though we break down "bougie". What does it mean to us to be called bougie? Is it positive thing, or is it negative? How does one perceive being referred to as bougie? What makes you bougie? Per usual, our trademark tangents are in this week's discussion too, so you'll find us remarking on the Usher tour, wearing Gr...

What's good Bougie Babes! We're back to finish up last weeks discussion about our guest Benita's concept of the "Coy Boy". We opened the floor last week with the debate on whether or not today's modern man is pursuing and courting the same way they did in the past, or if they are waiting for the women to lead the dating direction. This week we're continuing this convo, as well as discussing the controversial phrase "be my peace", the competitive nature of dating, and how one would react to find ...

What's good Bougie Crew! We've got a fan favorite back for this episode. We previously were able to to chop it up with Benita in episode 97. Today, she put us onto a new concept that she and a lot of women are noticing, so we had to discuss. Do men not feel the need to chase anymore? In the dating landscape, is it now acceptable to anyone to shoot their shot, or should it always be the man who is initiating pursuit. What happens when someone is interested in you and you're unaware? Tap in and en...

What’s up Bougie Babes! When I tell you, it has been so long since last season so we all were too excited to get back at it! We get carried away on this week’s supa-sized episode!

We go from talking about laying hands on a significant other, to trash treatment, to loving vs liking someone, to one of our hosts giving a very graphic description of a traveling experien...

SURPRISE! We're BACK! New Year, New Season, and we're less than 90 days away from a new US President, so of course we had to talk about politics one good time! As messy, stressful and serious as this election season has been, you know we had to put our own sauce on it and discuss. Now this wasn't really a political debate, but the Bougie Broads and Bros give our thoughts and opinions on all parties involved (pun intended), our hopes and wishes, our gripes, and our encouragements. Politics can be...

Bougie Babes! We takin' it back this week!

Bougie Babes! What's good!?! So now it seems like the culture is sort of in this 'relationship recession' in a sense because so many couples are splitting. Every other day we get the tea on another couple calling it quits. But there are always a few random exes that may spin dat block and give the relationship another try. This week, we're talking about whether or not WE would, or HAVE spun dat block before. We also give our take on some of the latest couples to throw in the towel, and our thoug...
