Auntea Kerel, Auntea Jerrell, and Auntea Dawon are back together to settle a debate that's been years in the making: what's the ULTIMATE summer song of the last five years? They built a 16-song bracket (Not Like Us, Break My Soul, Water, Essence, Get It Sexy and more go head to head) and the results might surprise you.   First, Kerel brings a relatable dilemma to the driveway: what do you do when a fine gym bro with a "sneaky body" walks past smelling like days of unwashed gym gear? Should you say something, or mind your business? Jerrell and Dawon go head-to-head on unsolicited hygiene critiques, dollar-store deodorants, and public gym decorum.   Finally, the table turns messy with an unfiltered workplace question: Is hooking up on the job ever worth the bag? Between overnight retail floor resets, hotel conference scandals, and flights with the lights off, the Aunteas share hilarious past confessions and warn against catching HR cases in this economy!   Grab your cups, Communitea — here's what's brewing today. ☕   🕐 TEASTAMPS 00:00 – Intro 00:59 – Funky Gym Bro 15:03 – Summer Song Showdown 34:40 – THE WINNER 38:36 – Ask Yo Auntea: Coworker Hookup 52:08 – Benediction

Yo Aunteas are back from a whirlwind weekend taking over New York City, and the tea is piping hot! Auntea Kerel and Auntea Jerrell tackle the viral podcast conversation between Raven-Symoné and Kalen Allen. Did That's So Raven get watered down, or are people unfairly blaming Raven's wife for statements Raven has been making for over a decade? We unpack Hollywood policing Blackness, the green-people argument, and why nostalgic hero worship always gets complicated.    Yo Aunteas also recap their WILD wedding weekend in NYC (Horse Meat Disco may have ruined us for every other party), a $188 US Open ticket disaster, new iPhone rollout, and a real conversation about oversharing, misinformation, how September is Suicide Prevention Month, and a critical deep dive into Out.com's guide on 8 ways adults can show up for LGBTQ+ students this school year.   Was That's So Raven Black culture to you, or Disney-fied for the masses?

Justttt the two of us... Aunteas Kerel and Jerrell hold down the fort without Auntea Dawon for the first time!   Did Gen Z really just say men over 40 shouldn't even look their way unless they're paying rent? 💀 This week on Minoritea Report, Auntea Kerel and Auntea Jerrell go unfiltered on the viral TikTok/IG debate sparked by Gen Z claiming older gays must fund their lives to date them. From Billy Porter and Durand Bernarr chiming in to our own messy history with "transactional arrangements" in our 20s, we're unpacking the real tea on age gaps, gym culture, and aging in the community.   We're breaking down girl group dynamics: is FLO's new album giving authentic 2000s R&B nostalgia or just an industry push? Why is it time for Fifth Harmony to suck it up and reunite? And why is Tinashe officially the queen of late summer?    Plus 25 years since 9/11.   Get Them Cups Readyyyy!   ⏱️ TEASTAMPS * 00:00 - Intro: Just the Two of Us * 07:11 - The Sneaker Dilemma * 13:25 - Auntea Jerrell's "Wedding Tour" * 20:09 - FLO's New Album * 26:30 - The Girl Group Curse * 31:21 - Tinashe * 34:28 - Beyoncé's $150 B'Day  * 38:25 - 25 Years Since 9/11 * 53:48 - Gen Z vs. 40+ * 1:09:48 - Dating Over 40 * 1:14:16 - US Open/Benediction

Ballroom icon, house music legend, and the voice behind "Cunty", Kevin Aviance sits down with Yo Aunteas!   Kevin just dropped Hippopotamus (Deluxe) and opens up about everything: how Beyoncé sampled "Cunty" on Renaissance's "Pure/Honey" (and how he found out), what it's still like to be "cunty" at 58, laying the groundwork for a generation of Black queer artists, and why ballroom culture IS Black culture, period.   We go track-by-track through Hippopotamus — including "Dolls," his protest record for Black trans women, the gospel cut "What a Friend," and "Bloodlines," written from a conversation with the late Father Hector Xtravaganza. Plus: his new era as a DJ, the Fever NYC party scene, growing up in Richmond and coming up in DC nightlife, a tribute to Dolly Parton, and a first look at what's coming for Beyoncé's B'Day 20th anniversary.   🍵 SUBSCRIBE for new episodes of Minoritea Report every week 🍵 Kevin Aviance's new album Hippopotamus (Deluxe) — streaming now 🍵 Club Hippopotamus (the remix album) coming soon   TEASTAMPS: 00:00 – Intro 01:11 – Kevin Aviance: Hippopotamus Deluxe 06:44 – C*nty sampled on Beyoncé's Renaissance 15:29 – C*nty at 58 21:14 – Kevin's DJ era 24:55 – DC nightlife 33:26 – "Ballroom is Black culture, period" 35:56 – Hippopotamus Tracks 43:06 – Club Hippopotamus remix album 51:51 – RIP Dolly Parton 55:39 – Beyoncé's B'Day 20th anniversary 1:13:00 – Onya & Benediction
