Speaker 1 (00:04):
Hey, they're beautiful people. This is miss Unapologetic. Welcome to
the Valentine's Special episode of Keeping It Real. Now. I
know I've been away for a while, but I'm back
and I've got so much to share with you today.
First off, we've got a lot to celebrate with the
Philadelphia Eagles clinching the.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Super Bowl title.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
That's right, We'll be talking all about the eagles big win.
I'll also dive into the Valentine's Day parade drama and
how it's caused quite the stir among couples.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
And of course, i'll.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Be answering your sizzling Q and A about relationships, the good,
the bad, and the downright ugly. So sit back, relax,
and let's get into it. First, let's give a huge
shout out to the Super Bowl champions, the Philadelphia Eagles
for putting a belt to ass on the Kansas City Chiefs.
(00:58):
The Eagles came to play and completely dominate the field.
And special kudos to MVP Jalen Hurts. This guy was
on fire every play, every pass, every run. He showed
us what it means to bring your a game.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
When it counts.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Congratulations Jalen, you deserve that MVP title. Now, I know
there's always some controversial stuff whenever a team loses, and
trusts me, we're going to get into all the drama
and chatter about what went down in that game next week.
So stay tuned for that because you know I'll be
(01:36):
keeping it real as always. Let's talk about that Valentine's
Day parade drama. As many of you know, the Eagles
victory parade was held on Valentine's Day, and oh boy,
did that cause some sparks to fly, and not just
the romantic kind. Somehow, mixing football fanaticism and Valentine's expectations doesn't.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
All always jeil. Well, yes, folks, the parade was.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
All about bleeding green, not red. But while Philly was celebrating,
some couples were having major disagreements. Yep, the timing of
the parade led to some unexpected breakups. Can you imagine
people actually end in relationships because someone chose the Eagles
over candle at dinners and romantic gestures? Wild I've been
(02:25):
getting a lot of Q and A on this topic,
so let's dive into one of our listener's dilemmas right here.
Keisha A wrote in saying I'm a New York Giants
fan and my boyfriend is an Eagles fan.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Here we go. Lay it on me, girl.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
She goes on to say he wants to go to
Philly and attend the Eagles parade, but I'd rather stay
home and have a romantic evening. He tells me we
can have dinner anytime, but this is a once in
a lifetime event. We can do something after the parade.
I told him that if he goes to the parade,
(03:03):
don't bother calling me. Was I wrong for not wanting
to go to the parade. I'm still upset about the
Eagles stealing Barkley. Well, Keisha, I'm not sorry for what
I'm about to say. You're stupid as hell. You never
come between a man and his football. Seriously, this game
is going down in history, and your boyfriend wants to
(03:24):
celebrate with the rest of the crazies. And let's set
the record straight. New York wasn't exactly banging down Barkley's door.
Philadelphia rolled out the red carpet and welcomed him with
open arms like a lost puppy. Barkley knows his worth, Honey.
It sounds to me like you don't know the value
of your relationship, because if you did, you wouldn't be
(03:45):
throwing out that ridiculous ultimatum. Come on, how about a
little compromise. Maybe celebrate this once in a lifetime event
with him, and then you can have your romantic evening.
It's clear that putting the parade on Valentine's Day created
a bit of chaos, but maybe it's a chance to
(04:06):
rethink what really matters in your relationship priorities. Right anyway,
that's just my take. We've got more listener questions to
tackle later on, but for now, let's keep it moving.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Stay tuned.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
There's more keeping it real now coming up next. Now,
let's switch gears for a moment and talk about something
a bit different but equally exciting. I received an interesting
message from Davy and Q, one of our loyal listeners,
and guess what, now his mother is listening too. Thank
you for bringing the whole family along for the ride,
(04:44):
Davion says, I saw the book on my mom's coffee table,
so I decided to read a chapter or two. Now
I can't put it down. My mother and I are
now fighting over it. I even had to download the
e book just to keep my sanity. I find myself
sneaking peaks at it during my lunch break. By the way,
I love how you sprinkled in those eagle references throughout
(05:06):
the story. And then he hits me with the big questions,
where is Marcus and why is Ramona so diabolical? Wow, Davion,
that was a lot to unpack. First off, I'm thrilled
you're enjoying the book.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
But here's the deal. No spoiler alerts are loud.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
I can't spill the tea on what's gonna happen next,
but I promise you'll be in for some wild surprises.
So remember, whether it's your mom or you fighting over
the book, you both can enjoy the drama. Just don't
blame me if the plot twists leave you fighting in
the living room like it's an episode of a reality show.
(05:45):
So to Davian and all the book lovers out there,
thank you for your amazing support. Keep on reading and
stay tuned because there's more excitement in store for you.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
All right, let's dive back.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Into our Q and A coming up next. All right, folks,
let's take a quick breather from the Q and A
to touch on something really important relationships. Yep, that's right.
Whether you're soaring high like the Eagles after Super Bowl
win or feeling like you're stuck in the same old rut,
(06:18):
relationships always require hard work. It's not all smooth sailing.
You've got to be willing to roll up your sleeves
and work at it. The first pillar of any strong
relationship is self love. You've got to love yourself first.
Think about it. If you don't value yourself, how can
you expect someone else to. Self love sets the foundation for.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
How you deserve to be treated.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
If you're looking for someone to complete you, honey, you're
looking at it all wrong. You've got to be complete
on your own first. Now, let's talk about knowing the
type of relationship you're in, and yes, there's a big
difference between a relationship and a situationship. A relationship is
a partnership built on mutual respect and commitment. A situationship,
(07:06):
on the other hand, is this gray area where you're
hanging out and maybe doing couple things, but there's no
real title or commitment involved. It's like being in relationship limbo.
You've got to identify which one you are in because
the two require very different mindsets and expectations. So before
(07:26):
we jump back into more listener questions, take a moment
to reflect on these points. Are you putting in the work?
Do you truly love yourself? And most importantly, do you
know the nature of the relationship you are in? Trust me,
considering these factors will help you navigate whatever comes next.
(07:46):
All right, let's gear up for more juicy Q and
a coming right up, stay tuned to keeping it Real
Now I'm miss Unapologetic and there's plenty more where that
came from.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
All Right, beautiful people, we're back with.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Another sizzling listener question. This one comes from Aaron X,
and let me tell you it's a bit of a
messy situation. Aaron X says, I do not like to
be in a relationship for too long. I've been dating
this girl for six months and now I'm interested in
another girl. The girl I'm currently dating is expecting me
(08:23):
to take her out on Valentine's Day, but I already
have plans with the new girl. Oh, Aaron, you are messy.
I mean, come on, you don't want to hurt the
nice girl's feelings, but you're just not into her anymore.
How should you break up?
Speaker 2 (08:39):
With her.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Well, damn, Aaron, the worst thing you can do is
break up with a woman right before or on Valentine's Day.
You'll create collateral damage of epic proportions. February twelfth is
actually National Breakup Day. It's like Christmas for people, and
in relationships, relationships crash and burn like they have a
(09:00):
VIP ticket to the emotional Demolition Derby. Honestly, I suggest
you be up front with both ladies. You might just
be setting yourself up for a melodrama that it make
a soap opera look like a nature documentary. And let's
face it, you might even want to hide your car
because this is about to get ugly. Good luck, Aaron,
(09:23):
you're going to need it, and maybe a good pair
of running shoes too. You've got a whirlwind of feelings
coming your way. Look, you're setting yourself up for a
world of trouble if you try to play defense and offense.
And to everyone else listening, let Aaron's dilemma be a
lesson in the importance of honesty and transparency in relationships.
(09:46):
All Right, we're not done yet, folks. More juicy Q
and as are coming up, so stay with us here
on keeping it real. Now, I'm mens unapologetic and we'll
be back with more right after this. All right, beautiful people,
time to get real with nisy r situation. My boyfriend
and I have been together for two years, but he
(10:09):
always has to work on Valentine's Day. Just for once,
I want to get dressed and go out for a
romantic evening. Am I wrong for wanting to celebrate our
love on this day?
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Niasy?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Sweetie? Wake up. You won't be putting on.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
That red dress or those high heels because, honey, you
are the side check. Let's face it, You're not in
a relationship. You're stuck in a situationship. Holidays and special
occasions are reserved for the main chick or the wife,
like they each get VIP access while you're left waiting
outside the club and you're cute but definitely not fancy outfit.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
And let's talk about it.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
National side check Day is on February fifteenth.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
You know, I even wrote a movie about it.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
It's a comedy. Just imagine all the side check out
there celebrating their one day holiday while the main ladies
are enjoying the fancy dinners. So, unless you want to
raise a glass to your side chick status. I suggest
you sit back, relax, and maybe start planning your own
celebration for February fifteen. You might just find the perfect
(11:20):
excuse for a belated Valentine's Day bash. That's all for
this segment, Folks, stick around because we've still got more
to unpack. You're listening to Keeping It Real Now with
Miss Unapologetic, and we'll be right back. All right, beautiful people,
We're back with another listener questions that really got me thinking.
(11:42):
This one comes from Linda E. Now, every year, my
friends and I go to the SPA to celebrate Gallentine's Day.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Oh I wish I had girlfriends like that. But here's
the twist.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Galentine's Day is always right before Valentine's Day. Linda mentions
her boyfriend wants to whisk her away for a weekend trip,
but it happens to conflict with her SPA day. She's
only known this guy for a couple of months, while
she's been tight with her girlfriends since high school. Now,
Linda really likes this guy, but she doesn't want to
(12:15):
hurt her friend's feelings. They're upset because I told them
I won't be able to go on the trip this year.
She laments the guy I'm seeing has put a lot
of thought and effort into this getaway. What should I do,
Linda's sweetie, this is not a hard question. Just go
on that trip. Your girlfriends are seriously hating on you
(12:36):
right now. If they were real ride or Die friends,
they'd support you and your new relationship instead of clutching
their spa towels and pouting. Let's be real, Nine out
of ten they're either jealous because they don't have a man,
or they're secretly hoping you'll cover the spa tab.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
So pack those bags, apply.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
That sunscreen, and enjoy oh your romantic weekend. Trust me,
your friends will get over it, probably while they're stuck
in the waiting room for their next facial All right, folks,
that's it for this listener question. Stay tuned for more insight,
advice and all things real on keeping it real now,
(13:19):
I miss Unapologetic, and we'll be right back after this break.
Welcome back. We have a whole lot more Q and
A coming your way next month, But for now, I
want to leave you with this gem. Know your self worth, Ladies,
if a man is only texting you and you've never
had a proper phone conversation. He's not into you. And
(13:41):
if he's always chatting with you from his car, I
hate to break it to you, but he probably has
a girlfriend waiting for him at home. Oh and if
he can only see you during the daytime and you've
never set foot in his house, guess what.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
That's right, he has a wife.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Don't be that side chick or stock in the situationship ladies,
now fellas, let's talk. If she calls you besty, you
better run.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
That's called for.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I'm just being nice because I'm not into you. But
if she calls you boo, congratulations, you got something she wants,
likely your money. And if she's turning her back to
you while she's on the phone or giggling like she
just heard the world's funniest joke, newsflash, you're not the
main dude. Remember love yourself first. Love isn't supposed to
(14:31):
hurt unless it's from Jalen. You know I had to
throw that in. Keep it real, folks, and don't settle
for anything less.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Than you deserve.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
All right, beautiful people, As we wrap up this episode,
let's hit those key takeaways and themes we've discussed today.
First off, huge congrats to the Philadelphia Eagles for clenching
the Super Bowl title and MVP Jalen Hurts for bringing
his A game.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
We'll get into.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
All the controversial chatter next week, so stay tuned for that.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
Then we dove.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Into the Valentine's Day parade drama and how it stirred
up some relationships.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Ultimately, it showed.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Us that sometimes our passions and our relationships can collide
in some pretty unexpected ways. And let's not forget the
juicy Q and a session where we kept it real
with some tough love. From Aaron's messy Valentine's dilemma to
Nissi realizing she's the side chick, we went through the
realities of relationships. Speaking of relationships, it's crucial to remember
(15:36):
the importance of self worth and spotting those red flags
early on. If someone's treating you less than you deserve,
it's time to reevaluate your relationship. Always keep it real
with the people you love. Transparency, honesty, and self respect
are the pillars of any strong relationship. Don't settle for
(15:57):
less than you deserve. All right, folks, That's all for
today's episode of Keeping It Real. Now I miss Unapologetic.
Thank you for joining me. Be sure to check the
show notes for any links or articles mentioned in today's episode.

this segment, Folks, stick around because we've still got more
to unpack. You're listening to Keeping It Real Now with
Miss Unapologetic, and we'll be right back. All right, beautiful people,
We're back with another listener questions that really got me thinking.
(11:42):
This one comes from Linda E. Now, every year, my
friends and I go to the SPA to celebrate Gallentine's Day.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Oh I wish I had girlfriends like that. But here's
the twist.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Galentine's Day is always right before Valentine's Day. Linda mentions
her boyfriend wants to whisk her away for a weekend trip,
but it happens to conflict with her SPA day. She's
only known this guy for a couple of months, while
she's been tight with her girlfriends since high school. Now,
Linda really likes this guy, but she doesn't want to
(12:15):
hurt her friend's feelings. They're upset because I told them
I won't be able to go on the trip this year.
She laments the guy I'm seeing has put a lot
of thought and effort into this getaway. What should I do,
Linda's sweetie, this is not a hard question. Just go
on that trip. Your girlfriends are seriously hating on you
(12:36):
right now. If they were real ride or Die friends,
they'd support you and your new relationship instead of clutching
their spa towels and pouting. Let's be real, Nine out
of ten they're either jealous because they don't have a man,
or they're secretly hoping you'll cover the spa tab.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
So pack those bags, apply.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
That sunscreen, and enjoy oh your romantic weekend. Trust me,
your friends will get over it, probably while they're stuck
in the waiting room for their next facial All right, folks,
that's it for this listener question. Stay tuned for more insight,
advice and all things real on keeping it real now,
(13:19):
I miss Unapologetic, and we'll be right back after this break.
Welcome back. We have a whole lot more Q and
A coming your way next month, But for now, I
want to leave you with this gem. Know your self worth, Ladies,
if a man is only texting you and you've never
had a proper phone conversation. He's not into you. And
(13:41):
if he's always chatting with you from his car, I
hate to break it to you, but he probably has
a girlfriend waiting for him at home. Oh and if
he can only see you during the daytime and you've
never set foot in his house, guess what.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
That's right, he has a wife.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Don't be that side chick or stock in the situationship ladies,
now fellas, let's talk. If she calls you besty, you
better run.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
That's called for.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I'm just being nice because I'm not into you. But
if she calls you boo, congratulations, you got something she wants,
likely your money. And if she's turning her back to
you while she's on the phone or giggling like she
just heard the world's funniest joke, newsflash, you're not the
main dude. Remember love yourself first. Love isn't supposed to
(14:31):
hurt unless it's from Jalen. You know I had to
throw that in. Keep it real, folks, and don't settle
for anything less.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Than you deserve.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
All right, beautiful people, As we wrap up this episode,
let's hit those key takeaways and themes we've discussed today.
First off, huge congrats to the Philadelphia Eagles for clenching
the Super Bowl title and MVP Jalen Hurts for bringing
his A game.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
We'll get into.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
All the controversial chatter next week, so stay tuned for that.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
Then we dove.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Into the Valentine's Day parade drama and how it stirred
up some relationships.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Ultimately, it showed.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Us that sometimes our passions and our relationships can collide
in some pretty unexpected ways. And let's not forget the
juicy Q and a session where we kept it real
with some tough love. From Aaron's messy Valentine's dilemma to
Nissi realizing she's the side chick, we went through the
realities of relationships. Speaking of relationships, it's crucial to remember
(15:36):
the importance of self worth and spotting those red flags
early on. If someone's treating you less than you deserve,
it's time to reevaluate your relationship. Always keep it real
with the people you love. Transparency, honesty, and self respect
are the pillars of any strong relationship. Don't settle for
(15:57):
less than you deserve. All right, folks, That's all for
today's episode of Keeping It Real. Now I miss Unapologetic.
Thank you for joining me. Be sure to check the
show notes for any links or articles mentioned in today's episode.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Stay real, stay.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Unapologetic, and I'll catch you in the next one.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Take care.
