Forgiveness-Is it for you or others?

If you missed the show Saturday night, then you missed a very heavy topic.  Me and MacGirl4Life tackled the topic of Forgiveness and whether or not it is really for you or the other person.  This was a very touchy topic for me, because learning how to forgive is a obstacle for me on a daily basis. I struggle to forgive all of the offenses that have been done to me by other people.  Also during the show MacGirl4Life also had stories of other people who also struggled, and conquered their offenses, and moved on with life. This was actually a very emotional topic for me to discuss, given that I have a strong issue with it.  I need to learn how to forgive people and just pray for them, because whatever they do to you, there are consequences, it might not happen right away, but those folks will eventually pay for their offenses. This was a topic that actually needed to be touched.  It might even need a Part 2....lol  I totally enjoyed speaking with Ms. Macgirl4Life, and having this discussion.  Stay Tuned for MORE to come from Real Talk With Reko!

Sexual Frustration with your mate/partner/spouse- revisited!

If you missed this show on Wednesday, then you missed me and Ms Sunshine, revisiting a topic that I have actually spoke on before. The first time that I spoke about this topic on my show, I was pretty much discussing it myself, but this time I had another voice to add some more opinion to the discussion. I was also delighted when one of my Breakfast Club friends showed up and added her views and opinions. I definitely enjoyed conversing as always on blog talk radio and I am hoping to continue with the good topics and guests to the show. I had found some more information online about the topic and was able to find a detailed description about exactly what Sexual Frustration was, and elaborated on some of the experiences that I have concerning this specific topic. One of the points I raised was about the worst sexual frustration being with your spouse. I have happened to have had an issue with my ex husband concerning sex, and it caused an even bigger strain on the marriage, along with all the other outside issues we were having. I was thinking as well as our guest caller was, that what man would not want constant sex on the regular. I was hoping that a man would call in and shed some light on the topic, however, not one did. Because if a man is getting it on the regular, and frequent, then I feel that he shouldn't have to look elsewhere for that gratification. Never the less, this was a good topic to revisit! STAY TUNED!!

Flirting-Harmless or Dangerous?

WOW! If you missed last night's show on Flirting you missed a treat. MacGirl4Life and I, weighed heavily on the topic of Flirting-Harmless or Dangerous, and the fact that flirting is pretty much obsolete in today's world. MacGirl4Life gave hilarious accounts of stories where flirting turns bad, and leads up to other drama. I also expressed how just about all facets of media plays a BIG part on how the courting process should go, in which there is literally no flirting what so ever. People are so quick to get instant gratification, and not even go through the motions of the actual flirting, the chase, the dating, none of that. It is now either you are with it or you are not. We never got the problem of what ever really happened to flirting. Which I am still looking for and expecting when a man comes and tries to get to know me. I have to really know a person before things can progress to a friendship, and even to the next level, and that may mean a committed relationship. Which is definitely an enigma in these days and times. Hilarious show. I totally enjoyed the conversation with MacGirl4Life, and if you missed this one you can always go back and listen to it! GOOD SHOW!

Women's Health Show!

Tonight Ms Sunshine and myself discussed the current health concerns, exercise, and eating habits that women normally struggle with. Finding information on the internet, I found some very disheartening things being said about the way African American women are struggling with health care and we are the leading community with the most illnesses. We also discussed good natural ways to exercise, and find nutritional things to cook and eat. Towards the end of the show we had a guest call in by the name of "William" who came in and talked about the things that he does for his fiance' and himself as far as exercising and that he supported his fiance' in all her health consciousness. Which is a good thing, however, for someone like me, I have to find the motivation, determination, and persistence to do something regarding my health. No one cares about me like me. Over all this show makes it's points, and the bottom line is that African-American women definitely need to step their game up in the health-wise area. Because we do not need to be spear-heading the illnesses, and having the worst of the illnesses at that. The list I found of illnesses involving black women had to be at least 25-30 illnesses deep. So ladies, need to definitely become aware of their health, and try to correct it before there won't be time to do so!! GET FIT! 

My One on One with Mr. Magic! ...and TWIN!

OMG! I had a ball talking to Mr. Magic about his comedy! We were eventually joined by his co-host Twin who also had me cracking up. Mr. Magic is a comedian, who is also my Blog Talk Radio neighbor. His show The Magic Hour is a show that sticks out on Blog talk Radio because of the amount of work that is put into his show, by himself, and co-hosts Twin and Lady V. They have a wonderful website, and have created animated series of their radio personalities, which is truly a good thing. To top all of that off, Magic has also moved to Ustream as well. So there are big things about to  really go on with The Magic Hour show! As I questioned Magic, he was very detailed with his answers, and above all else funny. Twin came in and added his comedy and it was a regular laugh-fest....lol If you missed it, you can always hit up my show archives, and comment about the show. I had a hilarious time asking Magic questions, and at times asking Twin questions as well. When I asked Magic who his biggest influence was in comedy  he said Martin Lawrence. Normally comedians say Richard Pryor off the break, but when he said Martin Lawrence I could see him being in a similar role on tv and the movies just like Martin Lawrence. I wish Magic, Twin, and Lady V much more success with the radio show and I am looking forward to hearing them on satellite radio SOON!!

Relationship Issues!

The latest episode revolved around Relationship Issues. I began the show talking about finding ways to solve relationship problems. I read out the points and elaborated a little about how I felt about each point. Then I played "Tired" by Kelly Price, which kind of echoes my feelings these days about everything including relationships. MacGirl4Life joined me, in which I reiterated the points that I made before her arrival. We continued to talk about relationships today, and what is basically wrong in today's world. MacGirl also came with points about being incompatible, and the reasons that you definitely should separate, given the issues of the two not being the right persons for each other. I also spoke about Dating mistakes women/men make when it comes to dating, and there were many. As I read them MacGirl and myself kind of elaborated on each sign. Unfortunately, no one called in or came in the chatroom, but it was still a good show. However, I was hoping that a male caller would call in so that we could get some of their input. Or even another woman to share her experiences good or bad. Maybe the next show we will gain some more calls, and interest in the show. STAY TUNED!!

Heavy Hittin' Wednesdays!

If you missed Wednesday night's show, you missed a treat. I had Ms. Sunshine co-hosting and we had a couple of calls from Mr. Alydee_QB, and MacGirl4Life. Another hilarious show, as we discussed the topic What Women want in the Bedroom. I am truly enjoying being back on Blog Talk Radio, and coming up with different topics. Ms Sunshine talks about telling your mate what you want because we are all adults. I reiterated that, that may have been one of my problems in the bedroom, because of the lack thereof. This was sort of a note taking session for me also, because I myself have not experienced a romantic evening, more or less  can actually say what I really want in the bedroom. I think that this was a good topic, and maybe we will maybe come back with what men want in the bedroom, which I know will also be an interesting topic. Other points made on this topic, were ideas that might be wonderful such as traveling to other destinations, changing the ambiance of the room, simple romantic ideas.  Which would actually compliment the things that women really want in the bedroom. Alydee said that women want to feel good in the bedroom, and we want to have massages, and to scream ooowweee daddy! This show was hilarious, so you can listen to it on this page or go to the blogtalkradio.com site and listen to it, you will surely get a good laugh.

Male and Female Role Reversals

If you missed Wednesday night's show, you missed Reko and Ms Sunshine kickin' it as usual as we discussed the topic Male and Female Role Reversals within a marriage/relationship. Of course two independent women aren't going to agree with a man staying at home, not doing anything, or even tending to the children or keeping the house clean. I pretty much prefer to have teamwork going on, than to not to be a stay at home wife, or have a stay at home dad. It was fun being back on the air, especially talking about topics and playing music. Unfortunately we didn't have anyone come into the chatroom or call in, but hopefully that will pick back up in future shows. The beginning of the show was a little botched, but I will continue to work at it till I get it right. I definitely had a ball with Ms. Sunshine, and we have many great topics coming up. So I hope that people come through to listen and laugh with us.

Smooth Sunday!

Today, I was back on the air trying to get back used to doing my shows on blog talk radio. I was kind of excited to just be back on and doing something that I love to do. I didn't do as much talking as I normally do, this was more of a cool-out session, as I invited listeners to call in or hit me up in the chatroom, to let me know what they had jumpin' off this weekend for the 4th of July. I am going to a cookout tomorrow, because I was summoned to come and make my famous deviled eggs...lol  I enjoyed being back on the internet airwaves, and letting people hear that Reko does indeed have soft side as well. I am not always such a hothead...lol Sometimes when I am driving and riding along I shared some of the music that I like to vibe to. It seems like I never left blog talk radio. And I am glad that I am able to get back on there and see the nice upgrades that they have apparently added since the last time I did a show. Which was back in February of this year. I am sooo looking forward to doing the shows with Ms Sunshine and MacGirl4Life, and possibly another co-host. Ms Sunshine and I get our giggle on, on Wednesday nights, and I am hoping for more guests, more co-hosts, and many more laughs. STAY TUNED!!

The Blog Talk Radio Return!

Today I did a practice run on Blog Talk Radio and I realized how much I missed it!! I can't wait to return for good, and try to make the show better than before. Ms Ms Sunshine will be returning, MacGirl4Life will be returning, and hopefully I will gain another co-host so that we can get this show poppin' again. I think that I am looking at a July 1st or 2nd show this week to kick things back off. I am enlisting some of my DJ friends to send mixes so that I can play them in the background on the show, and I plan to play everything from classics, to some of the new tracks out today. Haven't decided what topics to speak about first, but I am thinking and will have something in place soon! I hope to have wonderful guests, and co-hosts this time around. I really enjoyed doing my show, but was just hoping that I am able to pull it off a second time, and gain more listeners to the show.  In addition to practicing, I have been back to listening to other blog talk members show, to support and check out what things they have going now, and taking notes on the things that I need to improve. So, my welcome back show should be wonderful, and I can't wait to return!!

Returning to Blog Talk Radio!

Real Talk With Reko will be returning to Blog Talk Radio SOON! Yes I am coming back. People that I have interviewed in past shows, have asked when was I coming back, and I said something about missing blog talk radio on twitter yesterday and they expressed that they missed me also. So I think that it is time to get back on my internet radio grind, and have some fun.  I have to admit that I enjoyed doing the shows, talking about different topics, and laughing with co hosts and guests. Hopefully, this time it will be even more fun with the return of my co-hosts Ms SunShine, and MacGirl4Life, and other guest co-hosts. I hope to come back with some great shows, that everyone can listen to, relate to, and laugh with. I am also about to create another blog that will have much more on it, concerning this blog, other music programs that I support, and keeping the music of hip hop alive, as well as reviewing all genres of music. I have alot to talk about and catch up on, so I wanna thank any and everyone that has ever listened to my shows, and got something out of it including a laugh. I am ready to have some fun!!

Maybe changing Networks!

Well, I have ended my half a year ride with Blog Talk Radio.  Who knows I may return. I am currently debating on the switch of Internet networks in which to continue on with my show.  I am always looking for new and creative ideas for my show.  I definitely enjoyed interviewing, having co-hosts, playing some music, and mostly running my mouth...lol I am hoping that I will like the network change despite the issues that I had been having with the Internet period. The blog talk radio player will remain on this blog so that you can go back in the archives of the different shows and topics. I have had a ball with all the folks that I have met along the way, that called into my show, and participated with all the support.  I love all of you, and I hope to be returning with a better show, so keep your fingers crossed.  I will also keep this blog going with writings about different radio shows, artists, DJ's, and articles I support and are involved with.  I also am getting back interested in my writing, and will be releasing another blog full of passionate stories and writings.  So be on the look out for "Passion Fruits".  I will be rather busy in the up coming months with family, but hopefully finding the time to up-date my blogs.  STAY TUNED!

I Love My DJ's!

If you missed the show Wednesday night, you missed a treat. Me and Ms Sunshine talked about music and DJ'n, and what we enjoy about it. We got calls from DJ Chanin of Krupt Mob Radio, and DJ Dre' of Fierce Entertainment. So it was a wonderful show! I enjoyed it especially because it is a topic that is very near and dear to my heart. I am planning to probably do a Part II to this show because I realized that with my shout out, I still managed to leave out some key DJ's who have put it down over the years. I was so tickled that some of my DJ's paid a visit to my show. I truly enjoyed the conversation, and I am thankful that my co-host doesn't mind backing me up at all times. So cudos to Ms. Sunshine. My next show may be about the pending Valentine's day coming up! We shall see. I am not a big fan of Valentine's Day in fact it seems to be just another day for me, never celebrated it. Maybe I will buy myself something just because...lol I thank all the listeners of the show, and everyone that has supported my show thus far! I definitely enjoy doing it with my spare time! STAY TUNED!

It's 2011' and I return to BTR!

2011' is here, and it is time that I return to my BTR show! What great way to start things off by talking about a topic that is nearest and dearest to my heart....MUSIC! The theme of the show will be "I Love My DJ's episode1. Which is something that I can talk about with much enthusiasm. So I am definitely looking forward to it, along with some mixes of some of my favorite DJ's. Joining me will be my Wednesday night co-host Ms. Sunshine, who will also talk with me about the music that she likes and her possible favorite DJ's. I am hoping to get a couple of my DJ friends on the show so that they can tell us what it is exactly that they do(which I already know), and what sets them apart from other DJ's. I am also putting together a HUGE shoutout list to all of the DJ's that I know and love, and what their blends and vibes do to me. I am hoping that this show will be most interesting. Stay tuned for Wednesday night! Come and join in the fun, convo in the chatroom and you can even call in, and tell us what DJ's you like even!! I am excited and hope to have a good year, with new topics and shows! STAY TUNED!! "I Love My DJ's" will air February 9, 2011, 9:pm-11:pm! COME THRU! New things in 2011'!!
