Gin & Juice Podcast | Bday Surprise + Shein RICO Case + Stellar's Weekend + @DearFutureWifey 

Mel be bringing us THE EDUCATION! Her whole explanation about SHEIN…thank you!

I rewatched Melissa's reaction too many times. Her nod in agreement to whatever was being said is perfection.

Liss' reaction to her friends surprising her was PRICELESS!!! 🥰🥰 Her running away and subsequent dance/shuffle was EVERYTHANG!!! 😆😅😂 The way she questioned Tony Baker 🍞 through the Ring Camera and how he smoothly responded 😏 was also FUNNY!!! 😆😅😂

Ma’am, “I might not have arms but you can catch these hands” ended my day on the internet. Nothing else needs to be said. 😂

🗣️📢 THANK YOU LISS for SPEAKING OUT on behalf of WOMEN and OUR VALUE SYSTEMS at the Deaf Future Wifey Conference!!! ♀️✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼

Melissa will be sooo good on a panel show.

Melissa, do more public speaking engagements!

Melissa and Mel are just pure joy!! Mel is such a dope sister. Y'all are phenomenal!!

The scream & run away is a sure sign of black joy!! 🥳 ....another great episode ladies!!

😂 Shout-out to Stage Krew that mentioned the women hiding in the background after Liss screamed cuz I hadn't even noticed! 😩

Melissa!! I was about to take off running when she talked about having to cater to a man’s ego…I’m literally going through this right now!

So Melissa on this panel as a woman who MARRIED a man that did not have money. Many women have done this and supported their husband to wealth and prosperity.

For travel, I’m like Melissa. I like to book/reserve things that I know I want to do at that location and make an itinerary of things that can also be done but I like having the choice of cancelling or not going if I don’t want to do that thing the day of

Melissa said, "AND ANOTHER THANG!!!" on that panel. 😂😂😂

That whole Trophy Wife ministry, talk about it!!!!!!!

I’m with Mel….I don’t need any plans when I travel! Let me see what the day looking like, but just being away is enough for me! Now with a group, that’s different and I enjoy that too. Also, I can’t wait to try that “Target situation”. That’s is sooo good!

Omg tony pulling up and melissa catching him....this is hilarious

When I get there, I’ll figure it out! I’m also the friend that doesn’t like to plan the trips, just tell me how much it is I’ll send the money on time and show up when I need to. Be blessed

Melissa brought pure comedy with that What the Florida segment. She is such a dynamic personality and I love how much Gin & Juice reminds me of me and my sister. ❤

I am you Mel, I at my 37yrs of age realized that I do not like plans on my vacation. This is after years of going on planned vacations with ppl n realized on my return I’m mad lol I said yes to that.

I am structure vacation allllll the way! I over-research and make loose plans - somethings are booked simply because they will get booked up if we don't book but the rest is a loose agenda.

I’m like Melanie… I don’t like plans on my vacation. Often, I don’t feel like doing what was planned when the time comes… I get moody when it’s too restricted.

At my job we’re literally not even allowed to use our personal phones on company Wi-Fi if we’re going to be using TikTok at home. We can’t even look at our scheduling app if we have the TikTok app downloaded because of all of the information gathering.

My husband and I normally do a 7 day vacation that includes at least 3 days of activities.

Depending on the vacation. I don't mind having something plan or not having anything planned. But I can definitely sit on the beach for 5 days especially if it's a pretty beach. I am a Caribbean girl as well.

I did that at Lowe's... had me waiting 20 mins for somebody to cut wood. I sure did call right there in the store. 4 mins later they sent someone back there.

Thanks so much for explaining the Shein case!

I agree Melissa Italy was the best part of our European tour but I wouldn’t go back to London or Paris

My family and I are travelling in two weeks. My husby told make an itinerary of things to do. I created a "to do list". I dont like being confined/restricted to structure while on vacation! We WILL decide what we are doing when we wake up based on my lil list!

Oh this is gonna be a good one! Can’t wait

I always have a great time tuning into G&J! Happy birthday again Melissa 🎉 Mel, you are such a great baby sister for helping Kev plan such a memorable surprise for Melissa’s 40th. Oh and I cannot wait for the Dear Future Wifey Podcast to air, because my clip is locked and loaded to add my 2 cents to the comment section, that the comment that men love unconditionally and women don’t, WRONG!!

LISTEN, we (I) LOVE me some Missy-Poo (Melissa Fredricks-MrsKevOnStage)!!! Thanks for your excellence in representing the QUEEN that you are! Happy Birthday! 40 is the new launch of what God is doing in Melissa Fredricks, just keep watching. Melissa, go with the intuition, flow, and inspiration of your giftings. I look forward to the REVEAL of all that you are! 😍😇🥳🤗🤑😉

Def interesting when it comes to forgiveness in friendships… and I remember the Red Table Talk with Jordan which was kinda heartbreaking how she was dragged in the medias…Crazy! 47:02

Love Gin and Juice 😊

It's Melissa whisper voice for me, b/c she was telling they busines 😂

So ready for this today

I have done that in Burlington… line was long, I called the store and did exactly what the lady did in Target. Lol

Great to see yah!

Yass… Thank you for reading all the information and give us clear understanding.

Another good episode. Love it. ❤❤

Loved you all on the panel!

I feel like that was Marvin Sapp…only because of his episode on DFW

Happy Birthday Liss, Cute Hair Mel! 🥰

Structured Freedom w/o museums for me!

They are definitely selling the main character, and I'm enough shirts and rings

Whew! When hearing the recount my blood is simmering. The man was being intentionally obtuse. Let her gain 7 lbs, let her give thier kids (TOGETHER) too much attention, let her find a new passion outside of falling to her knees each night in gratitude that he “allowed” her to pursue, let her become famous or grow a new body , etc! These 🥷🏾 will fall out. And then immediately “lean on the nanny” if they don’t feel seen. They got hella conditions but okay… Can’t wait to watch!

I'm with Mel ...no plans please!

54:59 The travel topic is cool and what’s an interesting spin is travel as a kid and travel as an adult because the perspective is different. I did those European countries as a kid and I’m excited to go back. Australia isn’t a multiple trip place either.

Loving y'all's crimes podcast ( so intriguing), and I'm always here for the Gin and Juice of it All, Liss and Mel!!! #PopTheTrunkTho❤️❤️💃🏾💃🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Liss said ALLL OF THE THINGS on that panel!!!!#CONDITIONS 🔥🔥🔥

I’m late but this was such a great episode!!!!!

Y'all are so cute and fun. Thanks!

Great episode 🔥💞🥰

Hey Ladies.. I’m so glad that you asked about products that we use and have heard advertised on other platforms because I have one, it’s Ixora Botanical Beauty. They sell donkey milk skin care products. The products really work. I first heard about them on another podcast last year. Another great thing about them is that they are black owned. Happy Belated Birthday to you both.

I like black museums. Dassit.

I can't wait to do this at Walmart 🤣🤣

Love yall❤

If I come to New York, DC etc, it's because I want to see the famous landmarks - it's more of an outdoor museum - NOT a holiday. Those who live in big cities understand the hustle - overpriced, sometimes dirty but fun if you know where to go. BTW you HAVE TO go Greece - gorgeous and the food is amazing!!! Santorini is overpriced and touristy (but still beautiful). Wherever you travel to, ALWAYS search for where the locals recommend. It will be off the beaten track and not as popular but this is where you get the best food and the authentic vibes. The Eiffel tower etc are grand but super touristy. Do it for one day and get to nicer locations

Yeah 🎉 my favourite podcast 😊

Going back to the beginning

Waittttt did I hear that Kev & Melissa will be on Dear future wifey !.?!??!!!

Mel’s hairstyle is so cute

Devon must have said that foolishness 😂 Edited: I KNOW GOOD SOUND WELL THAT THE GOOD BISHOP DIDN'T SAY THIS FOOLISHNESS....I CAN'T!!!

Mel the investigator and her passion for RICO cases! Imagine if she was one of the true investigators! 😅

I would like something to do each day, but not all day. I don't want my whole vacation packed with activities.

I hear people say all the time," I don't like nobody playing with my intelligence." Tik Tok, shein and Temu are the definitions of playing with our intelligence. Like the guy said, their citizens engage with SM for educational/business influences. We engage with SM for foolishness.

Mel think she was slick I figured that you were sending Kev a message to plan something.

Thank you let me take that off my bucket list Paris🚫

Oh shiiii my bday is also 711!! BIRTHDAY TWIN!!

We’re planning a Mediterranean cruise. I just want to get a sampler, not stay!! Also, I LOVED studying abroad in London. Not sure if I would like it for a vacation. Not a vacation spot for me but awesome for school/work.

Y’all need to do black London - London churches, Brixton, and a gooood tour of African, Caribbean and Asian restaurants are the one! Basically yes the normal London landmarks can be boring, BUT the culture (when you find it)…worth it! Just gata know people lol

I like how people keep acting like broke men ain't out here dating

Liss I have been saying that about London and Paris for years, and my friends think I'm crazy

Man talk Melissa talk🤌🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Yes! So glad to have the words to put to it. I like structured freedom. Give me an anchor or so a day, but leave room for discovering things you couldn’t find on Google.

Target has self-check-out I also don't do lines nowhere. People been taking designs selling them on the street now since social media everyone can get those products cheaper. They also go to a luxury designer bag store look at the bag design reproduce the handbag because no one looks inside a woman purse.

For group vacay anchored itinerary, me and one other balls to the walls we'll figure it out.

The older I've gotten, the more I enjoy no plans on vacation. When I was younger, I planned everything.

Does anyone know the name of the company, on Amazon, that MKOS was talking about? It sells the knockoff Skims? If possible, drop a link. Thanks in advance❣️

For vacation, me and hubby like structured freedom. I’m the planner, so I will plan one or two things in a day, or a “nothing at all, let’s wing it kind of day”. If we plan a vacation with another couple, or family, we make that clear before hand…don’t plan anything for us…we can all collaborate together and we will let you know if that works for us 😂🤷🏽‍♀️👍🏽!,

I’ve been to London and yes I’m done. Had a GREAT hi tea experience but that’s it. Oh and visited a little village, great Pub lunch. But London, Too many people. It’s like NYC on coke 😵‍💫

I'm with Mel. No itinerary is ideal. Not many ppl like that though.

This episode! ❤️ I am Mel on vacation! I do not want to be on a schedule. If you still have little kids, all you want is sleep and do nothingness lol.

Yay I made it on time lol

I just watched…I told y’all it wasn’t Devon. Lol 😅

OMG I have been a BLaren for quite some time…i have a 30 min lunch, if the line is long, I will call the number and ask if anyone is working inside…this line is long!!!😂😂😂😂

Having withdrawals from G&J 😩😩 1-3-24

Great job girls❤

Can yall turn the mics and volume up. I have my speaker on and i still can barely hear yall

The Sangria in Spain period.

That was most certainly Pastor Marvin Sapp. He announced on TV when he was ready to date 🤦🏾‍♀️ And still not dating and that was 10 years ago. That 1976 thinking , man.

Yeeeessssss!!!! Really tired of a lot of men’s weird and wrong beliefs about women and it comes from men of all backgrounds. I mean this was a Bishop saying this someone you would expect to know better but honestly the subtle devaluing of women shows us in every type of man these days.

I don’t like Paris either. The food isn’t great. It’s always raining. It wasn’t much to do after seeing the Eiffel Tower which really wasn’t that great either.

I love Europe but I don’t do the touristy things… I don’t like just sitting at the beach. In Europe, you can walk around in beautiful cities and just take it in.

Anyone know the name of Melissa and Mel's crime podcast? I've been searching for it and can't find it

The COVID seasons were when I said oh why are they still with kody at this point because all the kids already said he wasn’t the best of fathers. Poor savannah just roll with Janelle and they said kody stays at robins so there is no time for each wife.

Paris is a good lay-over stop. That’s all.

I haven’t even seen the dear future wifey episode yet but because you told us who all was on the panel, that means that these men we normally would assume would have some sense DO NOT!! And they have microphones and platforms that broadcast this stupidity.

😂❤

👂🏾...Dear Future Wifey👀...

I think the guy's perspective about conditions both women and men do it. A lot of women and a lot of men. It is not one sided.
