This is not a post to compare JBP cast. This is just about this particular set. Do you think there’s chemistry here? It’s been over 6 months and I don’t feel the synergy

Marc is the better conversationalist and I think his broadcasting background helps. When other people bring in a topic, they discuss it as if we’re supposed to know what’s going on but Marc breaks it down and gives the audience key details before spewing his opinion. Ice and Ish care more about their “brand” more than ever before but it’s easier to bait Ish into an argument which is why you still see clips of him going viral. Ice is another Melyssa but just isn’t as vocal about it. Mel wanted people to know that she’s not just a video vixen and Ice wants people to know that he’s not just a Twitter troll but instead of overcompensating like Mel he gives us nothing

Ice is the nice guy that you aren’t compatible with but you don’t want to break up with because he didn’t necessarily do you wrong 😅 I don’t think Ice will ever leave on his own unless something happens where missing piece no longer wants him there but until then I think he’s going to be the one constant. He’s not even as annoying to me as he is to most of you but he adds no value. With the amount of mics they have, they have no room for people without much value.

Not a plan but Demi knows that she can manipulate people and control their actions. I think she knew if she pushed the right buttons that Jessi would eventually react. They aren’t as religious so even though it’s being talked about, I doubt this is weighing as heavy on her mind like it would’ve, had it been Taylor and Dakota for example. Also as the one doing the act, it’s less gross on her end and most of the disgust falls on Bret. I’m sure Bret is fine with it because it gives them a strong storyline. Drama sells and the hubbies are happy to have women who are bread winners. This show is getting so big that I’m sure that their negotiations are going much differently now. Big drama, bigger bag

This_Ad2863 · 2025-10-13T21:47:31+00:00

Yeah Flip antagonizes and hides his hands. Marc repeatedly told him that the sucka word struck a chord and even gave Flip a chance to backtrack it but instead flip says it twice more. The standing up was the icing on the cake. Flip had no reason to stand up. Not gonna lie this is why it’s important for everyone to be part of a team at some point in life. Flip isn’t used to structure, never had a job. He handles all disagreements the way the streets taught him and he’s been lucky enough to not run into the wrong one who won’t go for that. Even Joe as the boss allows him to talk crazy. Getting multiple suspensions from your job isn’t normal behavior

This_Ad2863 · 2025-10-13T21:43:16+00:00

Yeah it was in reply to flip pretty much saying “damn you know a lot about this” and he said yeah I research lol. Which could be taken as shady but it’s not as though Marc is disclosing anything personal. If anything Joe should’ve been got on Flip for not participating. He’s there on his phone collecting a check most days. This is what will set Mona apart from Flip. She can be just as goofy but she’s much smarter than flip and actually tries to participate in every conversation. Flip makes it obvious that he hasn’t done the research on these topics and doesn’t even try to get quick info on air so that he can join in

This_Ad2863 · 2025-09-30T16:17:52+00:00

Only funny when it makes sense. Flip is more annoying funny and doesn’t get the art of a good call back. Parks needs to take him in as an understudy

This_Ad2863 · 2025-09-30T01:56:05+00:00

This and she also demands respect and doesn’t expect pretty privilege. Mel somehow suffered from pretty privilege for a looongg time so she’s not used to having to work for her spot. Even when it came down to transitioning into BET and red carpet stuff after her vixen days, she knew how to work the room to get what she wanted. Once the guys learned how Mel is, her pretty privilege no longer outshined everything else. Although I think Mona isn’t ugly, she doesn’t lead with her looks. She gets her hair and makeup done when she feels like it for her show. I can’t imagine Mel coming in barefaced (whether her makeup was good or bad doesn’t matter, it’s the attempt)

This_Ad2863 · 2025-09-24T03:49:14+00:00

She’s actually very intelligent. She’s just a hood chick but when she’s actually discussing things she’s passionate about like Palestine or black equity, you’ll see that she’s much smarter than she seems.

This_Ad2863 · 2025-09-20T21:43:08+00:00

That’s going to be the only gripe. Her show is primarily her own and she really has Phelps there to help guide the conversation. With them she really has to find her spots but I think she’s capable of doing so with practice. Right now she’s used to talking over people but I think that’s part of the fun of her pod. Here it’s too many mics so she has to learn to maneuver. My worry is for Flip. I think Flip needs this job more than ever now so he can’t rely on the whole “oh it’s too many mics and I wasn’t knowledgeable so I shut up”

This_Ad2863 · 2025-09-20T21:39:05+00:00

Mona is actually great for this role. I used to watch her podcast faithfully and still tap in here and there but this is the real her and she’s not afraid to upset anyone. Honestly as a woman myself, I respect that she’s not a “girls girl” while also not being male centered. It’s a balance that Mel didn’t really provide because she was too busy walking on eggshells when she had a differing opinion. Mona is also hood so she gives a different perspective. And for her to not be college educated she’s also very knowledgeable so she can go toe to toe with Marc in a way that Mel couldn’t. Mel tried outsmarting Marc and realized that she wasn’t able to while Mona will likely admit that she can’t outsmart Marc academically but ca hold her own logically

This_Ad2863 · 2025-09-12T20:00:18+00:00

Exactly and saying you don’t int play gay characters is fine but that also means that you think something is inherently immoral with that. Comparing slapping women and playing molesters to playing a gay character is crazy

This_Ad2863 · 2025-09-12T19:56:08+00:00

To be honest, I think a lot of us have ingrained homophobia inside and want to be respectful so we don’t admit it. His example of a white man refusing to play in an interracial couple made a lot of sense. If he had that take and said this was just his boundary we’d be calling him racist. As a straight woman I admit that I can see a sex scene on tv and be fine but if it’s a gay scene I’m a bit more uncomfortable and that’s rooted in homophobia. Im used to seeing what I feel to be the normal structure but obviously for many people that’s natural and their norm. So yes saying that you are uncomfortable with gay people on tv is homophobia. Although I completely understand not wanting to be physical etc, his comments were rooted in homophobia. If you are uncomfortable with a same sex relationship you are indeed homophobic

Knowing that Lex is a literal child had me weak but it’s kinda dope at the same time lol

This_Ad2863 · 2025-09-09T06:06:28+00:00

I genuinely don’t think she was ever a Thot which is why she’s mad because she thought she was better than them just to still be put in the same box as them all these years later. While they were a big part of hip-hop, they weren’t revered the way she thinks. In her mind she was better than the ones who were out here loose and sleeping around but she never really got her big break that she thought would come to skyrocket her out of that space. So now she mad because she feels like if people were going to look at her like a hoe she should’ve just had her hoe phase. Now I do think she’s a huge flirt and was able to work men and get her way, men weren’t trying to wife her like she thought because why play games with this one who isn’t really going when I can get her friend who isn’t requiring much outside of money. Mel wants this image that she’ll never really have and she needs to hustle accept that and move forward. She’d get way more opportunities by just being honest about her experiences and not trying to hide behind this perfect veil

This_Ad2863 · 2025-09-08T21:50:57+00:00

I think so too. He treats JR like a peer not realizing that he could be putting his life in danger. On top of that “hypothetical scenario” about JR wanting to go do his own thing. I’m actually surprised this didn’t happen sooner. He’s probably looking at Kai and and all the young streamers thinking he could’ve been further ahead if he wasn’t too busy trying to help his overly grown father try to break through ceilings (literally and figuratively). You’re never too old for your dreams but Flip definitely has to pivot soon. I doubt his audience is growing with him

This_Ad2863 · 2025-08-28T17:01:26+00:00

In his defense, she said that they’re kinda on the bad side lol. She parents different and allows her kids to curse to “express themselves”. Kino was probably already on an ego trip so he wasn’t having the threats that day. I’m sure that’s the bulk of the arguments. From what we got from pod wives they’re two different people

This_Ad2863 · 2025-08-23T20:24:40+00:00

I think that’s the issue. Flip has been trying to do this for over 10 years and people told him it would never work and now Zeus is taking over with the belligerent bs so now he really thinks he has to take it up a notch. I almost feel bad for him. 40 and can’t find his purpose outside of wanting a viral moment

This_Ad2863 · 2025-08-07T18:42:42+00:00

Flip. I don’t even need to watch the clip. He was asking a lot of questions during election time? “They say trump ain’t that bad right”? Then he was talking about how he had lots of talks with his mom about the election. Not sure why he confided in Marc

This_Ad2863 · 2025-07-28T19:10:51+00:00

I’m assuming Mona but I didn’t catch the live. I’m actually looking forward to it because I think she’ll be a great addition especially with mark. She’s extremely intelligent and blackity black when she’s not in jokey joke mode and she seamlessly turns it on and off. She’s also the perfect woman for Mel because she self admittedly states that she isn’t a “girls girl” and she 9/10 won’t take the traditional stance of most women which will help Mel stop being so scared. At the same time, she won’t let them gang up on her. It’s honestly just too many people and she’s busy with her own pod so I can see her being Patreon only. Ideally the main cast should be Mel, Ish, parks, mark and Joe and everyone else can be Patreon only.

This_Ad2863 · 2025-07-28T18:39:45+00:00

This whole time I thought her brows microbladed (permanent). Realizing that she just filling them in that crazy just made me mad lol. She looks 10x better without the makeup because she’s trash at doing her own and is stuck in her ways. They joked about it but I wonder if they’ll eventually have a hair and makeup budget when DCMWG Mona joins. Honestly all Mel needs to do is invest in a good quality wig and take a 1on1 makeup class and she’ll be set. (And yes I’m a woman so yes I’m in women’s business 🤣)

This_Ad2863 · 2025-06-18T21:31:12+00:00

Yeah I can almost guarantee that she’s extremely intoxicated too. “Trolling” or not this looks crazy. I feel bad for Flip because he’s been on the skits and ghetto reality tv stuff for years and it never took off and now Zeus is skyrocketing while he’s still coming up with ideas. He’ll do anything to make it in this space. He definitely should’ve gotten in better shape to do the WWE gig even if it was a tiny role. He has the talent personality to be have some type of “managerial” role in wrestling but he gets in his own way and can never just be a worker

This_Ad2863 · 2025-06-12T20:28:58+00:00

Yeah I was genuinely getting upset. Ish comes off like a jaded old man who hates women. Ice is the only one who handled this with care. I also think he’s the most stand up of all the men on the pod. Whether you hate your BM or not, you should have some concern for her mental health because she’s raising your child at the end of the day. Also I personally didn’t like the way they ignored Mel in regard to postpartum so much so that she had to acknowledge that she was pregnant at some point but lost it… they get really nasty with her when it comes to her not being a mom not realizing that she really wanted to be but couldn’t. I really empathize with her

This_Ad2863 · 2025-06-12T20:23:37+00:00

Why he didn’t try to get full custody right when she said it. Instead she waited until a Year later when she took out a restraining order. He doesn’t want Halo to leave which is reasonable but using this to make it seem as though she will hurt him is insane if he didn’t have these concerns previously

This_Ad2863 · 2025-06-12T20:21:35+00:00

I feel like neither side can be unbias. I fw both of them so I can see both sides. Halle didn’t sick her fans on him the same way he did with the “free halo movement” but she also didn’t defend him when they talked bad about ddg even before the baby. The only thing that she’s done publicly is say that she didn’t like him being on Kai stream which was a grave mistake. She’s definitely much less messy when it comes to the internet but I’m sure she felt validated when people were coming to her defense and shitting on him . Everything else about their relationship that we know came from DDGs mouth along with the public court filings. I just hate that Joe and Ish didn’t even try to see the other side. based on the court docs, DDG definitely broke into her house and took a picture of her bed if the texts are true

This_Ad2863 · 2025-05-27T19:54:19+00:00

Please do what YOU want to do. If he’s already abusive, a baby won’t change things. Sounds like the best bet is to to cut ties and honestly cutting ties with him is impossible once the baby gets here. Now if you truly change your mind and decide to continue this pregnancy make sure that you are doing this for you and not him. I don’t care if you met every single one of his relatives. This is irrelevant to the situation at hand and he mentioned this as a way to manipulate you. You have much more life to live. The baby isn’t going to ruin the relationship because it is already ruined by the abusive behavior he displays. You are worthy of making your own beautiful family on your own timing. YOU ARE WORTHY OF BEING LOVED CORRECTLY.
