The Midlife Critics PodcastSeason 3 Episode 45: Agree To Disagree (#FreshCuts Vol. 85)In a frankly honest episode, we cover more personal territory than perhaps ever in the first half-hour and discuss how to critique songs we don’t like. Wes Dorris, Steve Strait, Travis Boots, Nathan Ferrell, and Wellington Davis join your host Burke Wasson to cover this and our songs of the week from #FreshCuts Vol. 85. Synth soundscapes, loving optimism, quality trap rap, double-digit-minute epics, German psych garage rock, Afro-beat, and new Roy Orbison-esque crooning highlight our songs of the week. Plus, Travis (still) has a bone to pick with the year 1994. Nate finally hears an Orville Peck song that he...

Unapologetically MeI am Woman, Hear me ROAR High value women, things 20 year old fitness influencers say, advice from a divorced 50 year old man....these are just a few topics we're going to cover on today's episode of things or memes taken from social media. As always everything is not black and white and there is SO MUCH gray area. We just have to be open to seeing it and acknowledging it. From there we can decide what to do with the information.

2021-12-2154 min2021-12-1415 minUnapologetically MeEp. 17 - Cancel Culture, Love, Wage Gap & MoreIn this episode we discuss all things love, cancel culture, and the never ending wage gap saga! Every one wants the fairytale ending, but is that a realistic expectation, and when does love become a choice and no longer a feeling or infatuation? Dave Chapelle cancelled? Never! Cancel culture is becoming a toxic movement where people who go against a narrative aren't allowed to speak without being "cancelled". Some of the cancellers need to be #cancelled! Last but not least. The wage gap! Real or nah? In some circumstances it is truly an issue, but not something that can...
2021-12-0655 minUnapologetically MeEp. 16 - Trent Denson Little White Lies, parenting advice when you're not a parent, marital advice from a divorcee or never been married: In this episode we discuss when does a little white lie just become a lie, and giving advice on things you either don't have experience at or have "failed" at. Unsolicited advice has become even more popular now with social media. It's kind of a double-edged sword because we want to be able to speak freely, but that also comes with people being able to give their two cents freely. Should we be offering unsolicited advice especially when it's something...

2021-11-2252 minUnapologetically MeEp. 14 - Pro Choice or Pro LifeRecently the governor of Tx signed into law that no abortions may occur after 6 weeks. Well most women don't find out that early unless they are trying to get pregnant and tracking everything. Of course that ramped up abortion posts on social media for and against the new law. Abortion, like most topics is not black and white. There is a ton of gray area. In this episode I sit with my friend and we share our differing views on abortion. What we do agree on is that more sex education is n...
2021-09-151h 05Unapologetically MeEp. 13 - Inside look at law enforcementLaw enforcement was a heavy topic last year. Everyone had their opinion on how things should be handled in certain situations. MOST people do not know the first thing about law enforcement and what it entails. They follow along with whatever narrative the media provides them. This episode was created to enlighten the public on somethings they may now know and how those things affect our law enforcement officers. I have included a few links below and there are studies you can also research on your own at google.com/scholar. One area I...
2021-08-1638 minUnapologetically MeEp. 12 - Can single parents be both mom/dad successfully?We often see posts shouting "Happy Father's Day!" to single mothers, but are they really doing the job of a father or are they doing the job of a mother alone? Can men/women fulfill the role/duty/needs of the opposite parent? I say no and hear my thoughts on why in this episode. Single parents can do a great and even with two parent households mistakes are going to be made but and trauma will occur for your child, but trying to take on the role of the other parent is ne...
2021-07-0707 minUnapologetically MeEp. 11 - Biracial in a Black and White SocietyI wanted to do an episode on growing up biracial but realized that growing up is not where I noticed issues. It was not until adulthood and really moving away from home that I realized how much "black and white" there is in the world. It's not only in the sense of race, but we always think there is clear cut answers to things, and the reality is most things are complex. Parenting, laws, child welfare services, health, education....I could go on and on. At the end of the day we all have different views and...
2021-06-0437 minUnapologetically MeEp. 10 - Decision making and personal responsibilityPersonal responsibility seems to be a characteristic that many lack and that I also, once lacked. I played the blame game for decisions I made that negatively impacted my life. It was always someone else's fault or an events fault for my poor decisions. It wasn't until the last couple of years when I started working on personal development that I gained an understanding of having control over my own life and my actions or reactions to anything that comes my way. In this episode I speak with fellow HCI Alumni health and life coach, K...
2021-04-2750 minUnapologetically MeEp. 9 - Domestic Violence. Should I stay or should I go?This episode was sparked by the Tommy Vext and Nicole Arbour drama on social media, however, it is a VERY real issue for men and women. I tell my story of domestic violence and provide tips on getting out and how to support someone who is in a physically abusive relationship. If you are in an abusive relationship please reach out to someone. I am listing the hotline number below. It is difficult to get out of, but it can be done!

2021-04-1334 minUnapologetically MeEp 8 - Mental Health Days for KidsIn this episode I discuss the importance of allowing our children to take mental health days from school. If you notice me get a little choked up, I did because I am struggling with my daughter right now regarding her mental health and I feel lost. It is extremely difficult especially at a young age to know how to help them, but I am doing the best I can. So just know you are not alone! Below are the articles that I mentioned in the episode and as always comments are welcome! Does your child need a m...
2021-04-0720 minUnapologetically MeEp. 7 - Offended Much?In this episode I discuss how we've become so concerned with being offended, but how we can prevent that and really focus on what and who is important in our lives worth giving our energy and time to. Being offended takes so much energy and gives so much power and control to others so it's time we take that power back!
2021-03-2213 minUnapologetically MeEp. 6 - Body positivity and body image in societyIn this episode I have a friend share her weight loss journey, what helped her through, and her perspective on body positivity and society. It's important that we understand how important body positivity is but, also the impact of glorifying being unhealthy. We did have some technical difficulties so I apologize for that but we got it done! I want to thank Sheila for her vulnerability and willingness to share her story! I hope that brings help and hope to anyone who wants to begin their own journey!
2021-03-071h 03Unapologetically MeEp. 5 - Transgender in SocietyWith the new EO by President Biden transgender males/females have been the topic of many news outlets. As a mother of a daughter I share my perspective and feelings when it comes to athletics and bathroom usage as well as being a Veteran. However, what I realized in my research is that transgender men/women have been involved in all of these things prior to any EO and we were just never aware of it. We're now hyper aware because lets be honest....we discuss what the media shows us! Hear my thoughts on the new EO, athletics...
2021-03-0140 minUnapologetically MeEp. 4 - AbortionThis week's episode is HIGHLY controversial and definitely a sensitive subject. I want to encourage you to listen with an open mind and really think about what is being discussed. Have conversations with others who disagree with you and LISTEN to their perspective. Speak to those who may have had an abortion and their experience or someone who contemplated but changed their mind. It's all about communication. You don't have to agree but you should at least listen.
2021-02-2143 minUnapologetically MeEp. 3 - Asking "Why" Why or why not?In this episode I discuss the dreaded question by kids to parents. "Why"? This may not be controversial to the general public but it can be among parents especially in the same household. I discuss why we should allow our children to ask questions and how it can teach them to think for themselves and make their own decisions based of knowledge.
2021-02-1416 minUnapologetically MeEp. 2 - DiversityIn this episode I discuss diversity and the importance of exposure to create acceptance and understanding. We don't have to agree in order to be respectful and accepting of the person alone. Conversation with our children and exposure to other cultures/ethnicities will create a world we can live in peacefully. Also, I was born in Las Vegas and raised in NM for clarification Lol!
