TKAM #838 Strong Friend #AffirmationFriday

Summary: 5.11.18 Get your friends, get your things, get your shirt. It’s Friday, and it’s our job to lead you into the weekend knowing that you can do anything. You just have to take the first step. #AffirmationFriday TK and Conscious start out the show talking about travelling. Bondfire Radio will be going to Detroit for the Allied Media Conference, and that’s just a start. And if you travel, be a tourist (just don’t look like one and tip well). In #NewsYouCanUse: New Edition has split from two of its members as the summer tour began. Rapper Dr. Dre loses trademark battle against Dr. Drai MD OBGYN. Spotify to remove R.Kelly from its playlists and suggested listenings. Rihanna stated in an interview that Drake made her feel “uncomfortable.” Neighbors wrongly call 911 on Bob Marley’s granddaughter as she was leaving AirBnB During #ChatroomCheckin, we had some affirmations before jumping into our discussion. In every social setting, there is someone known as the “strong friend.” This person knows what to do, they take care of everyone, and they seem unbeatable. But the question is, who checks on the strong friend? These people are human and need someone to lean on every now and then. Some of them just need distance. We should always check on our friends, even those that are strong. And if you’re the strong friend, learn to admit when you need something for yourself. Make wellness a priority. Peace starts with self-care. #AffirmationFriday RUNDOWN 0:00 #SONG: Denitia - One Day 4:38 Intro: Bondfire Summer Plans; Be a tourist but don’t act like one 13:16 #SONG: Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band - Cherchez la Femme / Se Si Bon 20:59 #NewsYouCanUse: The New Edition split; Dr.Dre VS Dr.Drai; R.Kelly out of the Spotify playlists; Rihanna stating that Drake made her “uncomfortable” 53:30 #SONG: Mama’s Gun - On the Wire 53:39 #ChatroomCheckin: Friday Affirmations 62:55 #NewsYouCanUse: People wrongly call 911 on Bob Marley’s granddaughter 68:34 #SONG: Royce Da 5’ 9” - Strong Friend 71:40 #Discussion: Being the strong friend; Self-Care 85:22 #SONG: Return of the Mack - Mark Morrison Outro: Strong friend
