Black Millennial Marriage Podcast

The Chapmans

We are Mikey and Randie Chapman, and your hosts of the Black Millennial Marriage Podcast where we're going to talk about our 10+ years of relationship experience, which includes our years of marriage. We'll discuss the grimy, raunchy, good, bad, ugly, and joyful and we'll interview some people as well. This podcast was created for our desire to have representation, to meet other couples, and to provide a space to talk about all we're learning, unlearning, and loving about marriage. We want people to know that you can be close to your spouse and to anyone you're in a relationship with. There's no reason to settle and you can always fight clean (eventually).

    Hey y’all!

    It’s the end of. . . . the SEASON! So, here’s a longer episode to reflect on this long ass year. 

    Tune in as Mikey and Randie reveal the 3 biggest things that affected them and stood out to them this year, and their favorite episodes and collabs. Later, they have a relationship check-in rating sex, money, communication, and parenting. During the check-in they both express hardships, disconnection, the fun, and still as always . . . love.

    Then, before the fight or flight they gift superlatives, an annual tradition for the most supportive and engaged Patrons. Superlatives range from “Most likely to burn shit up” to “Most likely to wear white people down.”

    Mikey ends the episode with a fight about Randie’s sleep talking, but of course it’s all love as they show each other some PDA.

    It has been a long ass $&(@)@_! year, but they and you made it. Praise GOD. As always, your hosts appreciate you for listening and rocking with them for all of these years. They wouldn’t be here without your support and they want you to know they’re grateful.

    They’ll see you in 2025!

    Hey y’all,

    The temptation to roll over and die is . . . well, tempting. But in this Indie Randie details the 4 things keeping her afloat, helping her resist despair, and inspiring her to imagine a better future. Because if Bisan from Gaza can show up, then so will she.

    Tune in as the shorter half of the BMM podcast shares her feelings on the world around her, the fear she and everyone else is feeling, and the raging determination she has to survive as those who came before her did.

    In the EP, Randie talks green juices, the Dodo Bird’s Youtube channel, her favorite go to app for self-care, and her new found fascination for Solarpunk art, activism, and literature.

    She hopes you’re being extra extra extra extra compassionate towards yourselves. And hopes you’re also taking care of your mental, physical, and all the things in between. Why? Because she wants you to survive too.

    In hindsight, there are many things the Chapmans are glad they didn’t know before they got married. And they bet you would agree. Tune in as one of your favorite couples discuss what was worth finding out . . . all after the fact. 

    For Mikey, it’s how deep fatherhood really is. He realizes he was thinking too small when his original goal was to be better than his dad. For Randie, it’s learning that none of their plans mattered. Life lifes, whether you’re good or not.

    And more.

    It’s a fun convo with a semi-heated fight or flight that’s about . . . you guessed it. Electricity. God, they’re old.

    But it’s all love, as always, when the Chapmans show each other some gratitude during their PDA. 

    As always, Randie and Mikey thank you for listening and they hope you enjoy.

    BMM INDIE 172: Let’s Talk About Lichen Sclerosus Ft. Kathy Ruiz-Carter

    Hey y’all!

    Tune in as Randie sits down with Kathy, host of the Lichen Sclerosus Podcast.

    Kathy was diagnosed with LS 5 years ago at 40 and the life-changing diagnosis paved the way for her podcast and organization on a mission to educate women about the auto immune disease that commonly affects the genitals.

    In this episode, Kathy details the symptoms she experienced before diagnosis, the sub-par medical care she initially received, and how living with this diagnosis affects her body, marriage, and children. 

    It’s a wonderful, informative conversation that highlights how powerful women are (In Randie’s humble opinion). 

    You’ll not only enjoy the interview, but you’ll get insight into how to maintain a healthy vulva and what to do if you are experiencing LS symptoms.

    BMM EP 171: This Again?

    Hey y’all!

    Tune in as Mikey and Randie talk about money . . . again.

    And the backstory involves Youtube Premium and wondering who gon’ pay the bill LOL.

    Together, the Chapmans reveal what’s been going on with work and money, and all the POSITIVE things they’re doing instead of—or in conjunction with— the “bad” habits.

    The “good” habits range from speaking up and refusing to isolate from friends, re-parenting themselves, and not OD’ing on chocolate. There’s more but you gotta press play.

    Later, Mikey brings a fight or flight wishing Randie would love him in a more goofier way…? But it’s all love as y’all know, when in the end they show each other some PDA. 

    As always, your hosts appreciate you for listening and rocking with them for all of these years. They wouldn’t be here without your support and they want you to know they’re grateful.

    [FLASHBACK] BMM 082: Game of Moans

    Hey y'all! Mikey and Randie are doing something new and will be dropping flashback/memory lane episodes on Fridays.

    Tune in to hear Game of Moans. This was another fan favorite back in the day. Happy Listening!

    .

    .

    .

    The Chapmans are BACK for Season 2! The theme? Plot twists. For their first episode back Mikey and Randie talk about sex.

    But wait! There’s no tears, no disgruntlement, or deep conversations, only laughs and a little shade. Together, they ask each other questions ranging from, “What’s your most embarrassing moment in bed,” “Has my rank changed?”, “What do you wish we did more of?” and that’s just the beginning.

    Later, Mikey brings a fight or flight questioning Randie’s hate of his favorite show, “How I Met Your Mother.” It gets heated, but as always it’s all love when the Chapmans end the episode with public displays of affection.

    Recorded right before the Coronavirus stopped the world in its tracks, the couple hopes you can take a load off and smile it out with this episode.

    Are you excited to add these millennials to your list of relationship favorites?

    Pressing play and rating 5-stars on iTunes and wherever else you listen is the first step.
