Pour Minds Podcast

Apr 17 · 2h 7m

This week, Lex P and Drea Nicole are joined by the one and only Durand Bernarr — and baby, this episode is a whole experience. From going viral to winning a Grammy, Durand gets real about his journey, staying true to himself, and what it’s like growing up surrounded by music and fully stepping into your identity. The conversation gets deep as they unpack confidence, being labeled “too much,” and why people are so quick to project their own expectations onto you. They also get into internet assumptions, family dynamics, and the truth about forming your own beliefs as an adult — regardless of how you were raised.  Of course, it wouldn’t be Pour Minds without some chaos — from hilarious singing games and 90s throwbacks to real talk about style, fame, and why money doesn’t automatically buy taste. It’s funny, honest, and one of those conversations that’ll have you thinking and crying laughing.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Lex P. and Drea Nicole are back solo — no guest, just the girls — and somehow the conversation goes from unhinged to deep real quick. From wild bedroom stories to Lex finding out she might’ve saved somebody’s life just by screaming on the podcast (yes, for real), this episode is a perfect reminder that Pour Minds be doing more than just talking shit. The girls get into everything — internet debates about Christina Aguilera, growing up on early 2000s music, and why people are always trying to pit women against each other. They also have a real moment about aging, losing legends, and how scary it feels watching time move fast while realizing we’re getting older too. Of course, it wouldn’t be Pour Minds without a little chaos — from Vaseline debates to concert regrets, Justin Timberlake stories, and random tangents that somehow all make sense. But underneath all the laughs, there’s real talk about health, taking care of yourself, and appreciating life while you’re in it. Plus, the ladies sit down with Vanessa Bouie, founder of Fancy Homebody, for this week’s Business Spotlight — getting into how she turned an Instagram community into a multi-million dollar brand built on comfort, confidence, and everyday luxury. Pour up. It’s funny, it’s real, and it’s very much “we just talking.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The girls get into everything — being labeled the “internet niece,” dealing with public perception, and the pressure that comes with being a celebrity kid. Nae opens up about confidence, colorism, and why staying true to yourself will always win, no matter what people have to say. They also dive into relationships, vulnerability, and the struggle of trying to be “mysterious” when you’re naturally an open book. Plus, a hilarious round of Lil Wayne trivia proves that even being his daughter don’t mean you know every lyric word for word 😭 Of course, it wouldn’t be Pour Minds without real talk about money, independence, and why having your own is non-negotiable in this era.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Lex P and Drea Nicole are joined by Atlanta royalty — rapper, entrepreneur, husband, father, and now author, 2 Chainz — and baby… this one goes everywhere. The episode kicks off with a wild conversation about meet-and-greet culture, concert ticket prices, and whether $1,000 for a photo is crazy… or worth it. From Chris Brown’s viral poses to fans taking things way too far (yes, Dre tells her wheelchair stalker story), the crew debates what access to celebrities should really cost and where fantasy crosses the line. Then they get into the origin story. 2 Chainz breaks down the transition from “Titty Boy” to a global brand, what rebranding really takes, and how playing D1 basketball at Alabama State shaped his discipline and stage presence. He opens up about hustling as a teen, navigating the music industry with longevity, and why he’s managed to stay out of trouble while so many peers crash out. The conversation takes a deeper turn when he talks about faith, fatherhood, and his new book, The Voice in My Head Is God. He explains what that inner voice really is, how it’s guided his biggest decisions, and what happened when he ignored it — including losing millions in bad investments. From financial literacy to trusting your instincts, the gems are real. Of course, the girls couldn’t let him leave without talking strip club classics, “KO” changing lives, rap evolution, tour pressure, Beyoncé-level production expectations, and why some artists need to stop just standing on stage rapping over their own lyrics. To close it out, things get a little unhinged in the Bed segment (as always). From hygiene education to libido talk to marriage transparency, nothing is off limits. This episode is funny, insightful, and unexpectedly vulnerable. It’s about growth, discernment, discipline, and knowing when to listen to that voice in your head. Because sometimes it’s just anxiety…And sometimes? It might be God.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Lex P and Drea Nicole are back with a solo episode and baby… it goes everywhere. The girls kick things off debating zodiac stereotypes and why the internet swears everything is “so Libra coded.” From being misjudged in the comments to side-eyeing astrology girls who claim every cool trait for their sign, Lex and Drea unpack the obsession with labels and whether signs really mean what we think they do. They also break down the viral Dr. Pepper jingle moment and the bigger conversation around going viral, corporate responsibility, and why the internet needs to learn patience. That spirals into a real talk about pandemic-era scams, PPP loans, unemployment checks, and why people are still getting locked up years later. If you ran it up in 2020… just know the clock might still be ticking. Later, the vibe lightens up as they talk about random talents that don’t pay the bills but deserve recognition—elite parallel parking skills, predicting movie plot twists, tap dancing dreams making a comeback, and being weirdly good at guessing zodiac signs. To close it out, they get into whether your man needs to match your aesthetic. From Build-A-Bear boyfriends and makeover horror stories to gym bros, nerd baes, veneers, hairlines, and preferences vs. disrespect—the conversation is funny, honest, and a little messy in the best way. If you’ve ever judged a sign, dodged a scam, upgraded a man, or thought about ordering tap shoes at 2 a.m.—this episode is for you. Pour up and press play.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Lex P and Drea Nicole are back with a solo episode and baby… they had time. They kick things off talking about the ice storm chaos, warming up your car (or not), heated seats vs. struggle seats, gym life updates, and why running outside in freezing weather feels absolutely unhinged. From THC drink munchies to fixer-upper frustrations, the poor decisions this week are real and relatable. Since it’s Black History Month, the conversation takes a turn when the girls react to a so-called “whites only” community in Arkansas—and let’s just say… if you don’t want us there, you don’t get our inventions either. No dryers. No blood banks. No folding chairs. No microphones. Put it back. What starts as jokes turns into a real conversation about Black innovation, cultural contributions, and how wild it is that we’re still having these conversations in 2026. They also revisit an old topic: how they argue. Are they emotional arguers? Logical? Do tears make you weak—or strategic? The girls reflect on how they used to handle conflict versus how they move now, growth in relationships, and recognizing when certain people bring out a side of you that doesn’t feel good. It’s funny, petty, self-aware, and layered—just how y’all like it. Pour up and press play. 🍷See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
