On episode 48 of Pops and Socks we want to send our most sincere apologies to our viewers and listener because this was the most chaotic episode we have filmed. Between excessive screaming and kids running back and fourth (at times with no clothes on) we try to have a productive episode talking about criticizing kids in youth sports, Juneteenth, and what it took for POC to attain voting rights. Hold tight and fun with this episode, and remember this is POPS and Socks so there would be no POPS without the kids.
As always we want to thank all of our loyal fans and family that tune in every week.

We are reunited and it feels so good to be together for episode 45 of Pops and Socks. Bakari opened up his home and couch for us to have another amazing conversation for you all. After checking in with each other on how our lives are going at the moment we open the floor up to the question of “does the occupation of your spouse matter”? Is your attraction tied to what he or she does for a living and can their job be a Red Flag for your relationship? After that we discuss how we feel about living with your significant other before you make the commitment to wed them. Is it wrong and what are the risk if there are any? Lastly we each take turns to chat about working to our full purpose/potential. Inspired by Eric Thomas’s book “You Owe You”, what does working to your full potential look like to you? Are you on track or do you need to make a few audibles.

On Episode 43 of Pops and Socks we are meeting remotely while we are all anxiously awaiting the arrival of Shaka’s son Theo!! As we begin this Podcast, Bakari Issues an apology for his thoughts about the previous episode (Does God be Cussin)? As we move forward Bakari also throws a question out to the group about relationship security. More specifically, is it a luxury or a responsibility for your spouse to feel secure in a relationship? With that we have to talk about what the definition of secure/security is. From there we move to the topic of being rich. We all take a moment to talk about what our “Rich Life” looks like for each of us. Then we discuss how we can start taking steps to ensure we get to live our rich lives.

On this Stand out BONUS EPISODE of Pops and Socks we let you in on a behind the scenes Conversations between the fathers. The Hot Topic in question
is (Do God be Cussin)? We are torn because some believe that God can use expletives to grab our attention and others believe that it isn’t possible for a loving God to use such language. To give you some context, on The Basement (a podcast hosted by Tim Ross) one of his friends who was in the process of overcoming a drug addiction said he had an encounter in rehab where God told him to “Let that B**** die”. Listen in on this heated behind the scenes Bonus Episode as we give our viewpoints on the given topic.
We would love to have your feedback and thoughts posted in the comments below.

On episode 42 of Pops and Socks we are coming back for the topic of LOVE and past loves. Do you believe it’s ok to remain friends with the family of your ex? To take it one step further, once you tell your significant other that you love them, does that love last forever or does it disappear when the relationship is no longer intact.

Greetings earthlings from your favorite Pops and Socks crew. We are going hard in the paint with episode 40!!!!! We pray that your week is starting out on the right foot and we pray you had an amazing Resurrection/ Easter weekend. As always, we are giving you our Weekly Roundup. We have a healthy mix of highs and lows. From Anthonys laptop fading to black (shouts to Jay-z), to Shaka’s visit with the allergist, and discussing the way church “used to be” for us. Somehow we found our BACK to the conversation of Bakari kissing in church……. Lord help us. Shaka talks about who is the most “handy” with tools out of the group after he put a bed together without directions. Now our main discussion topic is why we suppress who we really are in church? Or in better terms do you “Code Switch” depending on where you are? Listen in as we all give our own perspectives on how we feel about this topic.

On Episode 39 of Pops and Socks we start off fighting for our lives as we traverse through “technical difficulties” BUT GOD!!!!!! As we are sorting through initial frustrations, Bakari takes recounts his events of the evening and share his experience at the Olive Garden. In that hilarious retelling of events from Bakari, Anthony and Shaka are poking holes all in his story. Fourteen hours later, we get silly and ask a few wild scenario questions specifically if we would want our significant other to defend us in a physical altercation. Then we wrap up the podcast with a “would you rather” have all of your text released to the internet or have all of your thoughts read in air bubbles for everyone to read. That leads to a quick but deep conversation of if God holds us accountable for our thoughts.

On this episode of Pops and Socks we would like for you to sit back and grab your popcorn (literally) and tune in for a wild ride as Bakari and Anthony take you on a rollercoaster of disaster as they recall their experience of taking their friends and families to the movies 🎥. From there we flow into why or why not it's important to coddle your children. Is it important to you as a parent to allow your kids to make decisions on their own or do you feel like you are a helicopter parent. Then on a crazy twist of events, our (stage hand) Santana provide us with our first ever experience with a military grade MRE (Military meal). Huge shout out to all of our compression socks 🧦. Thanks for holding us down. Have a blessed week and share this podcast with a friend and another dad. #popssndsocks #pops&socks #fatherhood #blackfathers #movies #podcast #slurping #strive #growth #fathers #blackmen #excellence #antman #chocolatebabies #marvel

Happy Black History month, we coming at you strong with Black History facts. The question gets asked if you daughter is going on a date, would you want her to pay for her own meal? Then we ask as adults when is it okay to go "Dutch" on a date or pay for you own meal? This then translates into another hot topic (at least for Anthony and Bakari) As parents are you limiting the access to the full menu when you go out to eat when you are with your children/family. Which we transition into if your significant other got "hit on" would you want then to tell you and vice versa. Tune in and listen to the hilarious but real takes and opinions on these different discussions.
