Ep. 65 Dating App Profiles On Trial, Scams, and Granddaddy Purp

Swipe right…or throw the whole profile away? What Up Grown Folk…In Episode 65 of Rated M Cause We MF Grown, Tierra Laray is back for another Virtual Kickback full of hilarious dating conversations, relatable adult struggles, cannabis culture, and grown-folk wisdom. This week, Low Vibrational Sh*t tackles one of the biggest lies ever told: adulting is a scam. From confusing credit scores and expensive insurance to trying to make friends as an adult and realizing parents weren’t actually superheroes, Tierra breaks down the everyday struggles nobody prepared us for—and somehow makes them funny. Then it’s time for Pussy Power, where Atlanta’s dating scene is officially on trial. Inspired by the wild world of dating apps like BLK and Bumble, Tierra Laray reviews fictional dating profiles, examines the evidence, and decides who deserves a swipe right…and who deserves to be left exactly where they are. If you’ve ever been frustrated by dating apps, confusing bios, or obvious red flags, this segment is for you. The episode also features a jaw-dropping Dating Horror Story that starts as a passionate night and quickly turns into a lesson about boundaries, communication, and knowing when it’s time to leave. During Grown Convo, Tierra discusses Things We Need to Normalize as Grown Folks, exploring why starting over, protecting your peace, celebrating small wins, and continuing to grow shouldn’t come with shame. To keep the Virtual Kickback rolling, High Strain of the Week spotlights Granddaddy Purp, breaking down its effects, flavor profile, snack pairings, drink recommendations, and the perfect playlist to match the vibe. Finally, Tierra wraps up the episode with another High Thought, leaving Grown Folks with something meaningful to think about long after the smoke clears.

Ep. 64 Dating Horror Stories, Sex Fails, Advice! Listener Letters!!!

What happens when the Grown Folk take over the show? In this special listener letter episode, Tierra Laray is reading YOUR stories—from messy dating disasters and hilarious sex fails to real-life advice requests and heartfelt messages from the Rated M community. This week's Low Vibrational Shit asks the question: Do your friends really owe you support just because they're your friends? Is support supposed to be automatic, or are we expecting too much from the people closest to us? In Pussy Power, we're talking about the biggest mood killers in the bedroom and the little things that can turn a sexy night into an unforgettable fail. Then it's time for Grown Convo, where we dive into a question every adult eventually has to face: Are you growing...or just getting older? We unpack a listener's dilemma about outgrowing a long-term relationship, discuss what personal growth really looks like, and read a heartfelt letter from a longtime supporter who has been quietly cheering on Tierra's journey from entrepreneurship and YouTube to podcasting. Of course, we couldn't end the episode without High Strain of the Week, featuring a listener-submitted favorite strain complete with effects, snack pairings, drink pairings, music recommendations, and the perfect vibe for your next smoke session. Finally, Tierra closes the virtual kickback with a High Thought that ties every conversation together and leaves you with something to think about long after the episode ends.

Ep. 61 Hoodwinked, Bamboozled, Led Astray

Heeey Grown Folk!!! This week on Rated M Cause We MF Grown, Tierra Laray dives head first into the internet firestorm surrounding Dr. Cheyenne Bryant and the controversy over her doctorate credentials. But baby… this conversation gets WAY deeper than one person. We’re talking about how social media has created a world where followers, confidence, aesthetics, and popularity can matter more than actual qualifications. Have we confused influence with intelligence? Are people more loyal to relatability than honesty? And why do so many people blindly follow internet gurus, relationship coaches, podcasters, and motivational speakers without fact-checking ANYTHING? 👀 The grown-folk conversation gets REAL as we unpack: 🔥 Lived experience vs formal education 🔥 Pretty privilege in social media influence 🔥 Why people trust charisma over credentials 🔥 Elitism in the Black community 🔥 The obsession with titles, status, and appearing successful 🔥 Whether someone can be helpful AND problematic at the same time 🔥 Why people put influencers on pedestals and live by everything they say You know Tierra Laray had to give you a fire High Strain of the Week along with the High Thought. This episode is funny, messy, thought-provoking, and a little low vibrational 😭 because let’s be honest… some of y’all don’t want experts, y’all want somebody with good lighting and confidence. If you’ve ever questioned social media culture, internet therapists, fake gurus, or why society worships popularity over truth, this is the episode for you. 🎧 Subscribe now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts so you never miss an episode. ⭐ If you’re loving the vibe, leave a rating and review — that’s how we grow the Grown Folk community and keep the conversations going. 📲 Follow and connect with us: @TierraLaray Podcast: @RatedMCauseWeMFGrown Join our Private FB Group: www.facebook.com/Ratedmcausewemfgrown [http://www.facebook.com/Ratedmcausewemfgrown] 💬 Got a dating horror story, need advice, want to vent, or give somebody their flowers?
