I love how women who are currently scamming the government or exploiting the working class wanna make a podcast to give tips about business, tips they aren't even applying to themselves (referring to ming lee)

Do y'all like Karen Civil? I don't know much about her, but she's a bit offputting to me for some reason

I’m going to tune it. I’ll give them credit with marketing but I’m sure this dynamic is much better than the other one. Mandy and the other 2 don’t mesh well IMO.

So the first episode wasn’t bad. I’m glad they are actually friends, it makes the conversation a lot more fluid and they’re comfortable enough with each other to be their true selves on the mic.


Once you get past Ming’s voice there’s something endearing about her stuttering over her words.

I was apprehensive this was gon be one of them LLC women empowerment podcasts but it wasn’t like that at all.

it’s funny that scammer thread came out a few days ago cuz Ming mentioned she paid all her employees out of her pocket during the height of the pandemic. Karen was like “you good for that cuz you got Americans waitin on $600 checks” :cry::cry::cry:

I’m still not entirely sure wha Karen’s actual job is but she let y’all know several times during the episode that she is financially well off. Idk the blogging era is done, she claim she was making more money in the pandemic than any other time yet she got a podcast, which apparently Ming was planning on doing first.

I hope Ming finds her voice during this podcast journey. She didn’t seem nervous just unpolished which isn’t really a bad thing.

It’s worth checking out if you need somethin to listen to.

I don't really like her. It's something about the way she moves that seems really "I don't do much, but somehow I got pushed to an elevated status."

I listened to the 1st episode I like the format and I’m glad they are talking about real issues and not the latest shaderoom posts. I think I may like Ming but Karen is kind of overbearing. We’ll see. As of now I’ll turn in next week.

If you go on twitter and search Karen Civil kicks a homeless man you will hate her along with the money theft from Cameron. Lol. Dont get me started on Ming. Everyone says Ming was a baby born with fetal alcohol syndrome thats why she slurs her words a lot and her eyes are slant. Lol

This is super-cute. I know these girls are controversial to some but I don't know all the backstories. I know Karen is a "connector" with some possibly questionable money dealings and does a lot of urban entertainment marketing, PR and branding.. Everytime I heard the name Ming Lee, I thought folks were talking about Kimora's daughter. Not sure what she does

The vibe they have is dope and they are cracking me up. Two black girls talking about psychedelics, spiritual awakenings and debating on drugs vs lifestyle is entertaining af to me. "

Not knowing their dirt makes this really entertaining

I'm already subscribed to Joe Budden's YT Channel (love his podcast) and was ignoring the promos for this, but now I'll be checking these two.

I guess I’m not familiar with Ming, but her voice was very slurry to me. Pills or too much to drink?:worried:

Hey ladies! I watched this just because....
- Wasn't feeling Karens cocky intro and I think people have a hard time explaining what she does b/c as you see she had a hard time explaining as well. Branding/Marketing. She has a lovely news anchor or radio voice. Very smart and mostly well-respected and yes I know about the drama.

- Ming is very down to earth who sounds like she's had a few drinks. Speech issue? Maybe...That was annoying but she was transparent.

I liked the topics ...it flowed...and I was able to listen all the way.

I stopped after 5 mins, Karen is annoying. I just hope that Ming follows through because she is good for starting but not finishing.

Yet another JBN podcast accused of stealing from another black creative.

There’s a podcast by a girl name Diamond called “Girl, F- You”. She was recently on Pour Minds I believe or has been on there before. You can see all the tweets towards Karen asking why would they choose a similar name. Karen started deleting comments or posts where people are commenting about the show name. Karen is even stalking Diamond’s friends stories on IG.

Just so weird to me. “See, here’s the thing” had a similar issue with black creatives when it came to the podcast name. Why let this be a reoccurring issue? Why not think of something else?

I agree. The font that said "CiviLee" was onto something with that. They should hire her.

By my surprise, I didn’t find this podcast to be horrible. Ming is more relatable and Karen is self righteous and fake positive ( I can tell). I am one of the people who have always asked what does Karen Civil do. And I still did not get my answer. If you’re a scammer and finesser just say that, but don’t be an arrogant ass with the google me. Miss mamas you’re not Drake—sh!t doesn’t really come up with your name. It’s all very elusive.

I wanted to give this podcast a try because I was VERY surprised with how much I loved Porsha Williams’ (it’s really really great..probably one of my faves now!)

But this was a little too sloppy for me..mainly Karen telling people to Google things instead of explaining. Like...I’m gonna head to Google and not come back, girl.

I like Mings work ethic (well what she portrays) and wanted to pick up some tips..but I think her speaking for more than ten minutes isn’t gon’ work.

Who is the audience for this podcast? Aspiring entertainers in the tri state area? I just cant imagine a single person asked 4 this, besides karen civil herself.

I listened to the 1st one today and I liked it. Karen needs to stop talking over Ming though... And of course the intro, like girl SIT... At least some ppl know what Ming did/ does or can actually Google her. Hopefully they read the feedback, and adjust accordingly.

It says a lot that people find them more relatable , they just sit there in low monotonous voices talking about stale tea, especially Ming with the mush mouth but yet STTI got more hate at launch. I think they’re sending people to watch and post.

I wouldnt be shocked. Ive seen joe budden retweet nobodies on twitter with only 2 tweets, both of them tagging joe mal rory and parks. Doesnt take a mathematician to see whats going on lol

Edit: also, the marketing strategy for this show was off putting. Just as STTI is improving their chemistry, this show magically appears. Timing is off and more importantly joe and karens rollout was tacky and mona scott esque (suprise reveal, drama, fake spontaneous phone calls on the JBP, etc)

So I wasn’t a fan of episode 2. Did Joe make them spend an hour discussing clubhouse? Like wtf... most of the general public cannot use that app so it’s starting to get redundant now that you have celebs and influencers talk about it. It’s like hearing someone talk about a show or movie you can’t watch.

This show exists in a purgatory chasm between its intended audience and its actual audience. Its intended audience seems to be.... Record/marketing execs, managers, a&r's and aspiring artists? Thats like 0.0001% of people in the USA. The other 99.9999% dont know what clubhouse even is, let alone need podcasts breaking it down. And if they care so much, its cause they are already on clubhouse and dont need a "clubhouse decoded" segment.

Blehhhhh. Do better joseph and karen and mandii, and joe/mandii calling it "the chatty house" as a code word is ultimate peak cringe.... You guys already admitted what its called. im mad that i even know this info, smh. Cause its just Tinychat for industry elites. So BORING

I would suggest that this Ming girl get a full PR makeover. I cannot take her seriously when she talks. Turned off after 3 minutes. She should hire someone who can help her with her speech and dialect. Then move on to her image/style/clothing/hair.

Karen know she wrong for these edges and Ming the ex hairstylist is wrong for letting her go on camera like that. The glam for both leaves a lot to be desired. I like Ming and I don't weight shame but she could stand to lose a few. A good 10 would do her face some good as her cheeks have gotten so big it makes her eyes even smaller but not in a good way. She stays on a diet but never follows through, just goes right back to the surgeon which may snatch her waist but it makes her shoulders and back look so big in comparison. I agree with the font above about Ming needing a makeover, she pulls it together nice for her campaigns and shoots but she looks a sloppy mess in person without filters/editing.

Ming is like your cool homegirl you can talk to .. Shes very relatable and confident. The chemistry is great between the two . So far so good

Karen comes across faker than a $3 bill, thinks she’s the end all be all and her sh!t don’t stink. Ming talks like she just got her braces tightened and she’s going to Wingstop after taping. Snorefest, show won’t last. That’s all I got.
