Ask Ashley: The Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Ashley + Ashley are back in the studio this week diving into mental flexibility, emotional triggers, attachment styles, and why sometimes five minutes can change everything. It’s not all laughs, but it is a necessary self-check.

00:25 — Majoring vs. Minoring: Life Check-In

What are you majoring in right now, and what’s just a minor? The Ashley’s introduce a new way to measure how life is really going, and the conversation quickly turns surprisingly introspective.

10:54 — The Power of the Pause + Attachment Style Deep Dive

Sometimes emotional restraint, and a little silence, can be your strongest response. Ashley + Ashley unpack “the power of the pause,” controlling reactions instead of crashing out, and what happens when you finally stop overexplaining.

19:06 — Type A vs. Type B: Which One Are You, Really?

The Ashley’s question everything they thought they knew about their personalities. Are they truly Type A, or secretly Type B? From losing debit cards and ignoring low phone batteries to dishwasher etiquette, the girls unpack the habits that reveal how we’re really wired.

29:12 — Technology That Needs to Go Back in the Oven

Raise your hand if you’ve felt personally victimized by a printer. Printers never work when you need them to, but you know what might be worse? Bluetooth. The Ashley’s bond over everyday tech that feels half baked. If it only works half the time, put it back in the oven.

36:06 — It’s TV Time: Are Old Shows Better Than New Ones?

Ashley N is deep in her nostalgic TV era. From Homeland vs. House of Cards to Felicity, Dawson’s Creek, and The Americans, she makes a strong case for why the classics might still be undefeated.

39:50 — Question Time: Happiness, Faith & The Legacy We Leave Behind

Inspired by Angie Martinez’s signature questions, the Ashley’s rate their happiness, share what message they believe God would text them right now, and explore what legacy truly means.

This week on Ask Ashley, the girls are back with a PSA you didn’t ask for but absolutely need: how to stay alive, according to every Dateline intro ever. 😭 From “don’t light up a room” to “don’t go jogging on a day like any other day,” Ashley & Ashley spiral into a full true-crime rulebook… then somehow end up talking about real-world safety tips, sex trafficking signs, and why you should absolutely drive off with your windshield wipers still up if something feels off.

Then the ladies switch gears into parenting realities: when your kid is on varsity as a freshman, games are hours away, and you’re trying to figure out if skipping a 3-hour drive makes you a bad mom… or just a mom with responsibilities and a bedtime routine.

PLUS: Things I Saw on the Internet gives us a married man with audacity, a woman who sent screenshots straight to the wife, and a deep dive into why the internet trying to normalize “proud side chick” content is truly the darkest timeline.

 Question Time, including rich relatives, cereal rankings, freedom debates, and the classic: do you do what you love for less money… or what you hate for the bag?

It’s Mother’s Day weekend and the mamas came to slay. And by slay, we mean grab a coffee and get into some real talk—like unconventional parenting advice, possibly starting an OnlyFans, putting your kids in therapy early, and the wild ride that is co-parenting.

This week, the ladies are joined by Felicia Latour—entrepreneur, one of the voices behind The Mama's Den podcast, founder of Somebody’s Mama, and most importantly, she is somebody’s mama. This is the Mother’s Day episode you didn’t know you needed… but you’re welcome.

00:00 – Felicia kicks things off with some parenting wisdom—starting strong with, “Marry rich.” But don’t clutch your pearls just yet, because there’s a comma after that, not a period. She breaks down the deeper meaning behind wanting more for your daughter. It’s the kind of advice that gets laughs and a few head nods from moms everywhere.

07:58 – The Ashleys caught one of Felicia’s infamous IG Story rants, and let’s just say… they felt that. It turns out, watching women get rich off OnlyFans is starting to look a little too tempting. 

16:01 – Everyone loves to glamorize entrepreneurship, but these working mamas are here to keep it real. Freedom is cute until you realize it comes with stress, sacrifice, and not nearly enough naps. They talk burnout, boundaries, and why nobody should romanticize the “girl boss” life without knowing the full picture. If you’ve ever run a business and a household at the same time—this one’s for you.

21:24 – Felicia has been in the co-parenting trenches for over five years and has the wisdom (and war stories) to prove it. Meanwhile, Ashley N is new to the game and still trying to figure out how to “co” without chaos. Felicia shares the importance of patience, grace, and knowing when to step back. It’s a raw and relatable conversation that’ll resonate with anyone navigating parenting with an ex.

38:05 – It’s Question Time! The ladies open up about hoarding things—like skincare, t-shirts, shoes… and maybe a man or two. They also talk about people who wildly overestimate their own abilities and the random things that can bring them to tears.

This episode of “Ask Ashley: The Podcast” is brought to you by McDonald’s, proudly serving communities since 1965.

Ashley + Ashley are back in the studio this week to discuss ditching the Ye + Drake concert, coping with anxiety, and unfair consequences.

00:46 – The ladies had big plans to see Kanye and Drake when they reunited on the west coast this week, but LA is dangerous AF these days. “Donda” isn’t worth the risk, and these halls aren’t going to deck themselves.

05:51 – The ladies’ favorite phrase “My Best Friend Is My Therapist” comes to life as Ashley W helps coach Ashley N through a stressful moment. Her tips? Two “b” words - breathe and blue.

15:12 – The Ashleys are way smarter than they look...and sometimes sound. This week, Chris Cuomo + Ashley W’s airplane seat neighbor got these ladies talking politics.

22:06 – Ashley N is shocked to learn there’s such a thing as “weekend jail.” With a Friday check-in and a Sunday check-out, this option isn’t for everyone.

25:13 – This week’s TV Time discussion is all about celebrating the amazing Black content and the creators who make it. Ashley + Ashley are discussing “The Wonder Years” reboot, “Insecure,” and “Harlem.”

33:56 – Have you shopped the “Ask Ashley” merch? Are you one of Our People? What are you waiting for? Listen in for a special discount code.

36:55 – Question Time! This week, Ashley + Ashley are discussing keeping it professional, emotions through text, cheap dates, and sexually transmitted consequences.

Ashley + Ashley are catching up long-distance this week to discuss catching the Christmas spirit, stalking subscribers, Rhianna’s bump, and Nicki’s shade.

Included in the discussion:

00:45 –  Ashley N is on the road again, and Ashley W is feeling a holiday haze but determined to catch the Christmas spirit. The ladies also take a moment to honor the passing of one of fashion’s brightest lights. Rest in peace, Virgil Abloh.

10:24 – The internet is poppin’ again this week. It turns out some Kings do know how to keep the pH stable, and…what’s a rumor without anyone spreading it? Is the ASAP Rocky + Rihanna news true?

15:40 – Ashley + Ashley share how they went to the ends of the internet this week to confirm a sneaking suspicion. This week’s Deary Young Queen meme is a reminder of just how much a woman and her crazy friend can uncover when given the proper motivation.

25:46 – TV Time! Nicki Minaj showed up at the RHOP reunion, and she got those ladies all the way together. She was saying what everyone was thinking, and Ashley + Ashley are now inspired to petition for their own television hosting spot. Thank you, Nicki.

This episode of “Ask Ashley: The Podcast” is brought to you by McDonald's, proudly serving communities since 1965.

Ashley + Ashley are back in the studio with a New York twist. They’re finally coming to you from the east coast. This week, they’re discussing Friendsgiving celebrations, playing by Porsha’s rules, Da Drama of DaBaby, and a few vagina lessons for men.

Included in the discussion:

00:59 –  There has been a lot going on in Ask Ashley Land these past few weeks. The ladies are bringing you up-to-speed on all the Dear Young Queen Friendsgiving Dinners they’ve shared from coast to coast.

09:36 – Unpopular Opinion Time! Apparently, bi-racial kids don’t stick together. Colin Kaepernick wasn’t the leader this movement needed, and Ashley N said what she said.

11:55 – In this week’s “Things I Saw on the Internet,” the ladies can’t unsee what went down on the DaBaby’s IG. Da Drama with DaniLeigh was intense, and nobody came out on top

25:24 – It’s time for some Vagina Lessons. From pH balance to sex-induced periods, Ashley + Ashley are breaking down some of the lesser-discussed issues women face on the regular. And listen up, Young Kings...you can learn a thing or two, too.

34:30 –  Question Time! This week Ashley + Ashley are discussing embarrassing moments, endless love vs. endless sex, keeping it celibate, and a porn search tease.

This episode of “Ask Ashley: The Podcast” is brought to you by McDonald's, proudly serving communities since 1965.

Better late than never. Ashley + Ashley finally dropped off the episode they missed last week while hosting Friendsgiving Dinners on both coasts. They are catching up long-distance this week to discuss Certified Lover Boy’s commitment issues, Summer Walker’s new album, and men who turn into their girl.

Included in the discussion:

00:54 –  Let’s be real. Drake is never going to grow up. This Joanna situation feels like a marketing ploy, and the ladies are breaking down Certified Lover Boy’s latest exploits

04:56 –  Apparently there are three major traumas in life and moving is one of them. Ashley N is really having a difficult time with her not-so-long distance move this week.

12:51 – The ladies are excited to host the @dearyoungqueen “Let’s Talk About It” dinner series brought to you by D’ussé.

These Friendsgivings are an excuse of the sorts to remind women how strong, fun, & fierce they ALL are. Once upon a time, women may have been too shy to share the outrageous circumstances we frequently get ourselves into – but not anymore. There is no better way to connect, learn & inspire than in direct conversation with each other.  It should be a good time with good conversations around topics that both connect & separate us as women.

15:38  – It’s TV Time. The final season of “Insecure” is fire and Real Housewives are poppin. What a time to be a television fan.

26:32 –  Question Time! Ashley + Ashley are discussing cheating assists, crazy versus strong, and the appeal of smart men.

25:05 – Ashley North disappeared from E!’s WAGS, and there wasn’t much talk about why. Well, there was a tweet, but she had to hit delete. She expresses her disdain for reality show producers, and it’s a feeling that runs in the family.

32:59 – This week, the ladies sneak in two Dear Young Queen memes. Do you remember scholastic book fairs? What about Pizza Hut’s “Book It” program? Luckily, Traci is here to bring the ladies up to date and lend her expertise on book recommendations for young adults. And a new genre…MA?

This episode of “Ask Ashley: The Podcast” is brought to you by McDonald's, proudly serving communities since 1965.

Ashley + Ashley are back in the studio this week…well, Kathy Hilton bumped them out of their studio, but they are in A studio discussing cuffing season, second child syndrome, and whether or not to bring any Bae’s into Season Two.

Included in the discussion:

02:19 –  Ashley North is tired of being out of the loop. Scouting? Drafting? She needs an explanation on exactly WTF cuffing season is. 

08:01 – This week’s Dear Young Queen meme is hitting especially close to home for Ashley N. Second Child Syndrome is running rampant in her house, and now it’s spreading to school. Ashley W puts on her dual-purpose best friend/therapist hat and offers her support on how to rein in the situation.

19:03 – Looking for a new beverage?  Be sure to try  AHA Sparkling Water. You can find it at your local grocery store. 

19:35 – We’re overdue for a Bae check-in, but the ladies are doing it differently this season. There have been some changes. Some of these were Ashley W’s decisions, and some of these decisions were made for her. The lesson here is: If you’re not feeling up for the meet when he pops into town, just say no!

33:08 –  Question Time! This week, Ashley + Ashley are discussing moans vs. screams, baby wipes on your bum, sex near the kids, and staying single for the rest of your life.

This episode of “Ask Ashley: The Podcast” is brought to you by McDonald's, proudly serving communities since 1965.

Ashley + Ashley are back in the studio this week and picking up right where they left off with Rodney Rikai. Is it a battle of the sexes or a meeting of the minds? Honestly, it’s a little of both.

Included in the discussion:

01:25 –  Is talking during sex a turn-on or a mood-killer? The Ashleys are weighing in, and Rodney drops his preference – moans of confirmation.

04:32 – Rodney shares a recent exchange that has left him feeling like he was on the receiving end of an unwarranted “text tirade.” Ashley + Ashley, however, believe there might be a little more to the lady’s story.

14:56 –  AHA Sparkling Water is bringing another “AHA Moment” to The People. One brand has thought of everything from A to Z, and you probably didn’t realize the message they were sending was right on your doorstep.

15:58 – A discussion of opening car doors brings Ashley W and Rodney head-to-head on the subject of performative acts versus respectful gestures.

26:10 –  “Twenties” is BACK— Be sure to catch up on BET.com and check it out every Wednesday this fall at 10/9 pm Central. Visit BET.com for more.
