Personal Update: Aunt Tracy's Passing

00:01:53
Speaker
going on, y'all? And welcome back to What The Pod. My name is DJ Tracy. Tracy, your auntie's favorite DJ and now your fairy pod mother. Welcome to What The Pod. The podcast recommends new shows for you to listen to. And I've been off for a couple of weeks, y'all. My auntie Tracy passed, so I took some time to be with my family. Thank everybody who was sending positive thoughts my way and condolences on Facebook. Tracy was all about my podcast career and all about me really going for this. So shout out to Tracy's in future episodes. We'll be dedicated.

Podcast Recommendations

00:02:22
Speaker
to my auntie's late memory. All right, y'all, I got three new podcasts that I'm rolling with. I'm getting back into the mix of things. Now, this first one that I want to point out is the Black Girl Songbook. I think I've covered this in the episode prior, but this specific one is entitled Forever Brandy. Now, Brandy is
00:02:43
Speaker
on this show called Queens. And I ain't know nothing about the show. I'm always late to TV, but allegedly, she's on this show with Eve and they making music and I have to really get on this. But on podcasts, it says this week, Black Girl Songbook is coming to you with an extra special episode featuring the genius voice of Brandi.
00:03:04
Speaker
Um and the host is joined by the talented songstress herself. So brandy's actually on this podcast That's dope and discusses her new hit show queens her career behind the camera and the mic I did hear that brandy was a producer on this show and maybe a director of some sort Um, it says the 24th anniversary of her role as cinderella. Oh my god How has it been 24 years? I guess I was really really young when that came out
00:03:28
Speaker
And of course, Brandy talks about the strong sibling bond between her and her brother, Ray J. Now he just got a tattoo with Brandy's name on it, too. That was kind of controversial. People were like, oh my God, sibling. But I love them. I love their story. I love Brandy. One of my friends, Ivan, is the most Brandy fan that I've ever met. So I'm sure he's listened to this podcast. I'm actually going to text him after this to see if he's listened to it.
00:03:51
Speaker
Now this looks like it has music in it and there's like some behind the music kind of feel here this is chapter 23 of this specific podcast I'm gonna give this one a spin now tune in on Friday so you can hear you know what I thought about this I am gonna actually review this one let me go ahead and put that in my notes right now
00:04:10
Speaker
because I'm always interested in podcasts that mix that music field with it. So definitely check out Black Girl's Songbook. The episode is entitled, The Forever Brandy. So episode title, Forever Brandy.

Discussion on Relationships and Work

00:04:24
Speaker
All right, podcast number two, that I'll be checking out today. Now, the Red Table Talk is a Facebook exclusive, like Facebook Watch show. Jada Pinkett has been very controversial since it's dropped. I don't think one episode has even flopped. I mean, it's been on Shea Room as many times as Ops Girl passed it, but this specific episode is Gwyneth Paltrow talks sex. Now, I did actually catch the sex, love, and goop entire series. One of our friends came into town and was like,
00:04:54
Speaker
Have you ever watched this and my wife is a relationship coach for people who don't know a little bit more about my backstory But that was a hundred percent up our alley. So we actually watched the whole thing together. I thought it was pretty good I'm always down for like, you know Behind the scenes sex things like what are your desires driven by like learning more about yourself? So I'm excited to check out this red table talk because Jada
00:05:19
Speaker
She gets controversial. You know, she's going to ask the questions that are going to push the envelope a little bit more. So I think this will be the perfect way for me to check out and check out the second part of not the second part of sex, love and goop, but follow that story a little bit more. Cause I know they're going to ask about some things that were on the show. Now the episode description says Oscar winner and health and wellness lifestyle guru Gwyneth Paltrow joins Jada.
00:05:45
Speaker
and Gammy at the red table to discuss her new project, sex, love, and goopsie. I knew it was already gonna happen before we even clicked on the description. It says, later, sex, sexual wellness coach and erotic educator, Jaya. Okay, she's from the show. And I think my wife was like following her stuff, discusses the concept of sexual blueprints.
00:06:05
Speaker
Yes, yes, yes. So I actually looked this up and we took the test. The advanced one cost you like $17, but if you've watched the show, you can actually take the sexual blueprint quiz, which was cool. And the importance of living a sexual life. So I'm definitely gonna check this one out. Check out the red table talk episode entitled Gwyneth Paltrow talks sex. All right, moving on to the third podcast of the episode. And I had the wrong thing clicked, so I'm just gonna click here.
00:06:34
Speaker
Now this one is going back into more of my like scientific podcast. I'm always looking for infotainment for them to tell me like, Hey, what's this? What's that? You know, industry experts coming in, cool interviews that come in. All of that is right up my alley. So the third podcast is today explained. Now this is brought to us by Vox. The specific episode that I'm talking about is the future of work. The gig is up.
00:07:03
Speaker
I've been talking about this with my friends for a while. Now, with lockdown and COVID and everything that went into it, you know, our workplace has changed for over a year now. I'm currently working a job where I'm a professional podcaster, quote unquote, right? No, like I work for a podcast network. I love the job. Best job I've had thus far. I've been in it for 11 months now and I just met my coworkers for the first time last week.
00:07:28
Speaker
The gig is up. There's no reason for us to be going into the office. The workplace has changed a whole lot. Productivity is at an all time high by letting people just stay at their house and do their job that way. You know, limiting interactions in the office actually like gets more work out of people, which we've been saying for years. But I think the workplace really needed a
00:07:48
Speaker
a habit change one, and then just a shocking something to make it so that we had to choose technology, right? People now know how to use Zoom. Zoom has been around so many years before the pandemic, but now it's like top trending. People now know how to use Google Meet. We have different Microsoft Teams actually with something that
00:08:09
Speaker
was already around but got more popular because of the pandemic so i think that virtual events have a clear path as well as like virtual working you know it's gonna stick around for a while let's read the episode description it says a third of american workers do gig work that's me you know before before the podcast gig that's my full-time job now but as a dj you know 10 years of actually gigging and going out on the road
00:08:36
Speaker
um in the third part of our series the future of work learn how the pandemic helped them discover their power oh my god just talking about me this is coming full circle um today's show was telling us who was produced by so i'm checking this out
00:08:51
Speaker
to see how other people who were doing gig work actually found their power. That's probably because they started doing or offering online services in addition to their in-person services. You know, I'll DJ your event virtually for much cheaper. If you let me stay in my house and I can do multiple gigs in one day versus you versus you wanting me to come out, set up more equipment.
00:09:14
Speaker
walk up the steps you know mic check one two one two entertain 200 people tear down get in my car and come back you know that's gonna that's gonna cost a lot more now especially because virtual gigs are still a thing so definitely check out the podcast today explained and the specific episode the future of work the gig is up
00:09:37
Speaker
