Body Count...

Episode 36 of J and S Talks: Given the fact that for the last 6 months all we’ve been hearing and talking about is Covid-19, Joe & Show decide to have a discussion about something different. Light-hearted, funny, kinda serious but can definitely be helpful - which is the ultimate goal here. Many times in relationships, people tend to blow things out of proportion or can't accept the fact that their partner has a past. One of those things being “body count” AKA how many people a person has “slept with”; tune in to find out Joe & Shows thoughts on this topic, as well as their opinion on how you should handle the situation when this question comes up between you and your S/O.

George Floyd and Modern Day Racism...

Episode 35 of J and S Talks: The difficulties that come with a pandemic are tough to endure but add police brutality, racism, inequality, and social injustice into the mix, life becomes overwhelming AF! Especially if you're part of the groups who are facing those extra hurdles. In such a short time span, we've seen way too many situations of people facing all those injustices and it isn't fair. During this pandemic, it seems like a no brainer that we should all be unified, right? Unfortunately, that is not the case. Listen in on this discussion where we discuss the recent horrifying murders of George Floyd, Ahumaud Arbery along with other examples of racism and police brutality, which ultimately led up to the group of protesters and looting that's occurring nationwide.

Quarantine PPE Pet Peeves...

Episode 34 of J and S Talks: Personal Protection Equipment is EXTREMELY important for various reasons. It always has been a crucial part of the health system but as we all know during this pandemic, everyone must have PPE when entering establishments to minimize the spread. In this episode, Joe and Sho discuss their pet peeves and all the ridiculousness they've observed people do directly because of the pandemic, especially when wearing their PPE. Points and advice are given in a humorous manner but at the same time should not be taken lightly. Listen in to see if you're one of those people who commit these mistakes and if you are, hopefully you become aware of them and fix the habits you have with our suggestions.

Quarantine Lovers Quarrel...

Episode 33 of J and S Talks: With everything that's been going on these past two months, a lot of people's minds have been racing about a million and one things - finances, job security, family concerns, and of course, relationship issues. When life was "normal" it was easy for people to believe they were in a stable, healthy relationship. BUT being stuck in the house for this long with their S/O, revelations are being revealed, that what they thought they knew and loved couldn't be further from the truth. So many couples are faced with their reality during this quarantine such as the pushed aside, ignored problems that they've been dreading to speak on, in fear of igniting an argument. Listen in as Sho and Joe discuss ways couples can fix their problems despite the pandemic and the stress that surrounds us all. Hopefully, you or someone you know can apply these pointers in their relationship or maybe gather up the courage to drop whatever/whoever is causing you unhappiness. Always remember, your own happiness is the ultimate goal, so don't ever stop pushing and being positive. As promised in the discussion, we have linked below resources for those who need help.
