The YBF Podcast

She's not just a star of the show, she's the creator. Get.It.Right. We had to have a ki-ki with one of our favorite "Married 2 Medicine" stars Mariah Huq because honey, chick always has POINTS to make. Mariah (and her fabulous mom) pulled up to visit Natasha at The YBF Podcast last week, just after the second episode of the season aired. She came to talk about all the drama that's ALREADY going down, and that includes tea on who she's currently still friends with (for now). She dishes on her status on the show, removing her wigs and weaves this season, Dr. Aydin's health, why she was so disappointed in Dr. Jackie, how she met Aydin while she was on another date with a whole other man, their intercultural relationship, her VERY interesting take on Fantasia and husband Kendall's viral discussion about wives and "submission", and why she's not shocked that Dr. Contessa and her husband are having such major issues in their marriage. Bloop. By the way, she gives us single ladies advice on what to expect and demand from any man we're considering dating. Keep those standards high y'all! Like we said, POINTS WERE MADE. Listen now!

Not only does Christina Milian star in the cutest romantic comedies, but her real life is a whole rom-com too. The actress, singer, songwriter, mom and entrepreneur pulled up at The YBF Podcast to chop it up with Natasha about ALL of those things, especially her new Netflix movie "Falling In Love". She dishes on how she and boyfriend Matt Pokora met (it's annoyingly perfect and sweet), why she ONLY did a gender reveal party for Matt, how she REALLY felt about ex husband The Dream's in depth congratulatory message about her new pregnancy. She's basically a seasoned relationship expert now, so we had to find out her keys to dealing with not being valued and respected, the key to getting over a breakup ,why her view on marriage has now changed, her surprising faults in a relationship, how she deals with being judged for her dating life, and co-parenting with her ex and his wife. Natasha & Christina talk about the New Zealand culture she was engrossed in while filming her new movie, what she learned from the respect given to the indigenous Māori people, daughter’s Violet’s movie debut and whether she supports her being in the industry, and where she would LOVE to live. Christina got real about dealing with being told she’s not Latina enough or black enough, the surprising first people she told she’s pregnant again, the keys to being a working mother and teaching your kids - who have privilege - about hustle , the amazing story behind her new beignet food truck Beignet Box, another new Netflix show on the way, a "Love Don't Cost A Thing" sequel, and more. "Falling Inn Love" is out now on Netflix(8/29)!

Tamica Lee is the standout star of Bravo's "Southern Charm New Orleans" for a reason! She says whatever TF she pleases - with love - and is realer than real about the most personal of issues. Relatable. And that's why we love her. The former professional cheerleader turned lifestyle tv host trekked it from the Big Easy to NYC to kiki with Natasha. They talked about everything (recorded just before the recent season finale), and we mean everything. From surviving marital strife to stepmommy-hood post-partum depression to having kids before really being "ready" to plastic surgery to letting a certain co-star (Kelsey) know she's wasting her time waiting on a ring from Tamica's friend Justin Reese - she's a girl's girl first. Even when delivering true tea. And that's why we love her. Natasha and Tamica also discover they have mutual friends and a mutual mentor. Let the girl talk commence!

Natasha's back with the Hot Topics. She brought in YBF's NYC correspondent James Terrell to shoot the sh-t with her about the foolywangery and ridiculousness of Blac Chyna & Tokyo Toni's most toxic mother-daughter drama ever showed on tv, Jermaine Dupri fixing his mouth to criticize the female rap game for having too many women who "talk about sex," as if that's not 90% of what 99% of male rappers talk about, Cardi's B's perfect response, that Girls Cruise show and more. Natasha's also giving her opinions - and getting shaded for them - about whether women should leave a relationship if the sex is bad but everything else is perfect, strippers not getting respect, LaLa & Carmelo possibly reuniting (again), Klay Thompson smartening up with his women choices and more. Oh, and we're dishing on the black women giving us MAJOR Queen behavior lately. Listen up & subscribe!

Natasha FINALLY got to meet one of her entrepreneurial idols - New Orleans legend Master P! After she fan-girled out, they got to the ish y'all want to know. They chop it up about why P and Tyler Perry have a super awkward acquaintanceship and why P thinks the way he acts is problematic, New Orleans gentrification, why blacks in Hollywood are scared of P., why some blacks in Hollywood need to pool their money and create their own "Black Panther" type blockbusters to create ownership and wealth, P's bomb parenting style, why he's still fine and an eligible bachelor, why his fine a-- son Romeo is a bachelor too, the real reason the hip hop legend hustled his way to independence, how to not give up during tumultuous times as an entrepreneur, remaking "Make 'Em Say Uhh" (Natasha gave him the new rappers who should be featured and she wants producer credits!), why he cast new rappers and social media comedians in "I Got The Hook Up 2", and why "I Got The Hook Up" is iconic for the culture. Oh, and Natasha picks the PERFECT (newly single) person who Master P should date. Guess who.... "I Got The Hook Up 2" is in AMC Theaters NOW! http://www.amctheaters.com/movies/i-got-the-hook-up-2-60726 "I Got The Hook Up 2" is also available on all VOD platforms: Amazon, iTunes, Google Play and more!

Liris is giving us life, gems, BAWDY, and every reason to go sign up for her Model Bootcamp EXPEDITIOUSLY. Chick has been doing the work for years, and it’s paid off. Natasha chats it up with “The Naomi Campbell of Plus” Liris Crosse about killing it in this model industry beyond social media, doing the work, the actual definition of plus size, the craziness she went through as a video vixen, why she slays so hard as a curvy model, not being picked for Sports Illustrated, the stigma around curvy women everywhere, building confidence as a curvy girl, the hate she got as the first requested plus model on “Project Runway”, the struggles, the non-struggles, the REAL ish that happens in the model industry and the hit Lifetime/Bravo show, Lizzo, Tyra, and what it REALLY takes to write a book. Natasha and Liris get into a debate about whether the term “plus size” should still be used, and Natasha’s almost brought to tears while talking about curvy confidence. ******** Liris' book "Make the World Your Runway" is available NOW on Amazon & Kindle. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0997699728/?cv_ct_id=amzn1.idea.1QGE17DXOPGUA&cv_ct_pg=storefront&cv_ct_wn=aip-storefront&ref=exp_cov_lirisc_dp_vv_d

Natasha and YBF Correspondent Unique shoot the sh-- about the Varsity Blues college admissions scandal. It's a whole mess and it needs to be discussed. Thankfully, now (several days after this was recorded), many people & fellow co-workers of the super rich and famous defendants are speaking out against them. But before they did, we -- the black communities and those who are woke - called them out for using the same old scam tactics for non-deserving (usually white) children to attain higher education. Some many folks are just fraudulent AF these days. Helicopter and snow plow parents: Just stop it!

Singer Justine Skye kicked off this new year chopping it up with YBF Founder Natasha as the first celebrity guest of The YBF Podcast for 2019. And she didn't disappoint. The ladies talked DM slides, Justine's lessons on how to shoot your shot (and last time it worked for her), the real ish behind domestic violence, why you DEFINITELY can't build a man, and they bonded over their love of Bon Chon Chicken. Because, bomb. Oh, and they breezed over a certain former celeb friendship of hers. We learn really quickly that Justine unapologetically focusing on things that really matter - like her own happiness - is the realest definition of success. Justine's "Build" single is out on all platforms.

Natasha's friend Darius is back in the hot topics seat to chop it up about the foolery of the week. R.Kelly failed miserably at his Oscar performance audition that was his interview with the most unbothered queen in America - Gayle King, white reality tv has us stressed out, Soulja Boy & Nia Riley have us mad disturbed on "Marriage Bootcamp", so does "Leaving Neverland" and Oprah's reaction to it, and Tamron Hall's pregnancy announcement makes Natasha get REAL about the ish women over 25 and 30 have to deal with when deciding to have kids or not.

Natasha's back with her good (and shady) friend Darius to discuss all the reality tv clownery - Black Ink Crew brawling over the N-Word, why Lily deserved that ish, fine ass Ryan Henry, silicone oozing Cartel Crew, how Jordyn Woods saved black history month by out Kardashian'ing the Kardashians, community d__k and more. Oh, and Jussie Smollett's clowning as well.

Natasha and her equally tv-obsessed friend Darius break down the Jussie Smollett alleged attack scandal. We're calling it already: This is either going be the biggest celeb based scam of 2019, or the weirdest framing in the history of celebritidom. Whyyyyyyyyyy Jussie. Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?! #StillHoldingOutHopeThePeopleAreOutToGetHim #NoWeDontKnowWhoThePeopleAre #WereJustSaying #ThePeople

Natasha brings her longtime friend and veteran entertainment journalist Karu F. Daniels into the studio to ki-ki about Grammy shenanigans, what's REALLY behind the Oscar nominations (he's an expert of experts so you're gonna want this tea), J-Lo's un-black Motown foolery, Bill Cosby legit on some other ish, our fave show that may shock you, and plenty more.

[NSFW] It's always SCAMMER SZN here at YBF! We love a good scammer story. So Natasha and YBF Correspondents James & Unique NEEDED to do a deep dive into the twin Fyre Festival documentaries in a mini bonus episode. What a hot, privileged, pyramid scheme, oral mess.
