Your Aunties Could Never

Your favourite Aunties, Ak, Farrah and Nana are back ...
AUNTYVENTION
🫂 The Aunties intervene after Chyna from BKChat crossed the line following the already chaotic BKChat reunion. On a livestream he made disgusting comments mocking someone with sickle cell, insulting not just the person but a condition that disproportionately affects the Black community. With the creators of BKChat issuing a public statement & the ACLT charity weighing in. The Aunties unpack accountability, responsibility and why an older man in a young people’s space should know better. (Chyna's also an Enemy of Progress).
ENEMIES OF PROGRESS
🚩 Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald Trump for bombing Iran & kicking off a war that nobody asked for.
🚩 David & Victoria Beckham for publicly wishing Brooklyn a happy birthday despite his clear attempts to keep distance. Why do it publicly?
🚩 Shit DJs who can't be bothered to put effort into their playlists, ruining the dance for everyone. Do Better.
Make sure you tune in and expect real talk with nuance and receipts, flowers when they are due, messy dilemmas with no nonsense solutions.

This week your favourite Aunties, Ak, Farrah and Nana, are joined by Marvyn Harrison and Nii Evans for an Extra Aunties special asking one big question: can Black men and Black women rebuild trust?
We get into protection versus control, emotional literacy, ego, accountability, parenting and the messages shaping young boys & girls today. How do we actually show up for each other, and are we building something healthier or just arguing louder?

Your favourite Aunties, Ak, Farrah and Nana are back with another packed episode and this week we are joined by Nii Odartei Evans and Marvyn Harrison.
AUNTYVENTION
🫂 Richard E Grant ended a 29 year friendship after discovering a toxic email about him, saying once trust is broken there is no return. Meanwhile, writer Stephanie Takyi has admitted she cut off close friends out of insecurity and later regretted it. The Aunties ask, when is cutting someone off self respect and when is it pride?

🚩 Ghana for giving MrBeast a chieftaincy title after he reportedly spent over one million dollars rebuilding a school and pledging meals until 2030, sparking debate about philanthropy, sovereignty and symbolism.

AUNTYVENTION
🫂 On a date at a pricey restaurant, a woman orders the most expensive dishes, doesn’t finish then forgets her doggy bag in his car. Because she gave him a side hug, he assumes she’s not interested and ignores her call. The Aunties ask, is it his fault for choosing the expensive restaurant, or was she wrong to order big knowing she may not like him after the date?
WELCOME TO THE FAMILY
💐 Tayos’ Afro Mart, Orpington, officially opening its doors on the High Street and bringing culture, flavour and community to the area. We love to see it.
ENEMIES OF PROGRESS
🚩 America’s Next Top Model and Tyra Banks. The lack of accountability by everyone involved has the Aunties pissed off.
🚩 Are the white founders of Reggae Land Enemies for booking Burna Boy to headline one of the dates?
🚩 Billboard for labelling Rema a one hit wonder. Black rage baiting and arrogant ignorance all round?
🚩 Marco Rubio’s Munich speech about Western culture and heritage. Sounded a little racist to the Aunties.
