AJ Holiday and TamBam welcome Chantal Heide, known as “Canada’s Dating Coach” and author of No More Assholes, to We Talk Back for an unfiltered conversation about modern dating, relationship standards, and the importance of boundaries. Chantal breaks down her “corporate model” for intentional dating, encouraging women to date multiple people while avoiding kissing, sex, sleepovers, and exclusivity for at least three months. She explains the difference between “guys” and “men,” challenges questions about body count, and argues that rushing physical intimacy can make it harder to recognize red flags and walk away from unhealthy relationships. Drawing from 20 years as a stripper, her personal dating experiences, and the journey to meeting her husband, Chantal shares why screening potential partners matters just as much as setting boundaries. The conversation explores emotional attachment, self-worth, meditation, accountability, and choosing long-term compatibility over instant chemistry. Ultimately, AJ, TamBam, and Chantal challenge listeners to rethink their dating habits, communicate expectations early, and prioritize character, consistency, and emotional maturity when looking for lasting love.

AJ Holiday and TamBam catch up after AJ’s relaxing Jamaica getaway and Tam’s busy salon season before jumping into “SINS.” They debate whether Savannah James should be expected to upgrade a friend from coach to first class, defend Jasmine Guy against criticism of her appearance surrounding the A Different World revival, and discuss Kendrick Sampson’s comments about potentially having children with close female friends rather than within romantic relationships. For the main topic, AJ and Tam explore “cliteracy,” inspired by Regina Thomashure’s Pussy: A Reclamation, and the importance of understanding and communicating what brings you pleasure. The candid conversation covers desire, boundaries, sexual communication, faking orgasms, and becoming more comfortable expressing your needs, before closing with a self-date exercise centered on self-care, affirmation, and prioritizing yourself.

In this episode of We Talk Back, AJ Holiday and TamBam kick things off with some Jamaica banter before diving into “SINS,” including a disturbing Florida arrest involving alleged bestiality caught on home surveillance and reported changes involving FBI background-check disqualifiers. They also react to the controversy surrounding Every Woman, artist Tschabalala Self’s new “Lady in Blue” sculpture in London’s Trafalgar Square, before unpacking racism, prejudice, and violence within communities. The conversation gets even more personal after discussing a Kansas man who discovered a racial slur printed on an oil-change sticker from a Ford dealership. For the main topic, AJ and TamBam ask a question many people confront after a relationship ends: Did you waste your time—or did you stay too long? They unpack why women may feel the weight of lost time differently, accountability for ignoring signs and overstaying relationships, biological clocks, boundaries, and the contrast between women regretting time invested and men regretting money spent. Ultimately, the ladies encourage listeners to choose themselves, demand reciprocity, stop waiting for the “perfect” time to make a change, and release relationships and situations that no longer serve them to create space for something better.

In this episode of We Talk Back, AJ Holiday and TamBam catch up after Labor Day, from AJ hosting her mom’s 70th birthday celebration at Smoke and Bubbles in Columbia, South Carolina, to Tam preparing for a girls trip to Jamaica—with white Hennessy and parasite cleansers on the shopping list. During “SINS,” they react to Boosie Badazz’s 60 Minutes appearance, where he said he paid $600,000 to consultants while seeking a presidential pardon that he never received, sparking a debate over whether publicly exposing the situation counts as “snitching.” They also discuss the reported death of 22-year-old rapper Bloodhound Q50, social media and safety, and a viral conversation about escaping from a Tesla during an emergency. AJ and TamBam then unpack the Lindsay Clancy case, which ended in a mistrial after jurors deadlocked 11–1, and the intense backlash and scrutiny surrounding the holdout juror. They compare the conversation surrounding Clancy with the case of Latarsha Sanders, whose Massachusetts murder conviction was overturned after the state’s highest court ruled that excluding medical records related to her mental-health defense was prejudicial error. After the break, the hosts debate whether moving abroad really offers a better life, weighing peace and quality of life against taxes, healthcare, racism, cost of living, and the glamorized version of expat life often presented online. They close with practical thoughts on rebuilding community abroad and using astrocartography as one tool for exploring where your next chapter could take you. Let’s discuss!
