    2025/06/12
    This week’s episode of CockTales: Dirty Discussions is an emotional rollercoaster with equal parts healing and hilarious. Kiki opens up about her new project xoMan Podcast, launching June 17th, and how she landed not just the hosting gig—but a producer credit too. Medinah shares her recent deep dive into celibacy, her new purpose-driven journey, and what it’s like to feel truly lonely again. There’s real talk on forever love, how our grandparents' marriages shaped our ideals, and why modern dating has us asking, “Where did the real men go?” Oh—and of course, there’s a surprise golden shower story. Yes, you read that right. Whether you’re in your healed girl era or still making mistakes for the plot, this one’s for you.

    2025/06/05
    No guest this week, but we dive into birthday betrayals, petty payback, chaotic wax appointments, and why door-opening debates should never happen at the gym. Plus, we’re picking soft launch over sneaky link and maybe, just maybe, planning a little revenge brunch.

And this week’s episode of CockTales: Dirty Discussions has range, okay? From backshots and braids to funerals and family group pics, we cover it all. Kiki talks about heading to Louisiana a few hours after recording for her grandfather’s funeral and gives an update on the emotional rollercoaster that came with it (yes, grandma got her group photo and yes, it’s on YouTube). Meanwhile, Medinah just took her braids out in the most luxurious way and is deep in her "enjoy and romanticize every moment" era. We’re talking young love, grown crushes, being a tender-headed Black girl just trying to function, and the ridiculous things we believed about sex back in the day. There’s also a new cocktail recipe (Heaux on the Rocks), a ridiculous listener confession, and of course, a little indecisive date suggestions from Diane.🎥 Watch the full episode on YouTube – trust, the facial expressions alone are worth it.CockTales Channel on YouTubeLink to Watch this Episode on YouTube🛒 Support the Show and Check Out Offers From Our Sponsors:Go to BrooklynBedding.com and use our promo code COCKTALES at checkout to get30% off sitewide - We all deserve a good night's rest!📲 Follow Us: Instagram: @cocktalespodcast Instagram: @kikisaidso Instagram: @coffeebeandean🛒 Support the Show For all promo codes and links for promotions in the episode as well as other current offers, follow this link: https://linktr.ee/cocktalesadsContact Us!

  • Ep. 445 "Mothers, Sons & the Boundaries You Refuse to Set"
    2025/05/15
    In this heartfelt and hilarious episode, Kiki and Medinah are back in their original studio space catching up on life—both the beautiful and the hard parts. Kiki opens up about the recent passing of her grandfather, sharing intimate, funny, and touching memories that remind us how fleeting life can be. Medinah reflects on her trip to Pittsburgh for Mother's Day and the emotional rollercoaster of spending time with her grandmother, who’s battling dementia. The duo also dives into a trending quote from Marlon Wayans about not marrying because of his mom—and unpack the emotional and generational dynamics around “emotional incest,” legacy, and mother-in-law drama. Plus, why some old-school family values still matter, why fried catfish can cure anything (sorta), and a very necessary PSA on checking in on our elders.
