ReUpload MEN NEED TO CRY TOO! 😭 | Heartbreak, Prison, Relationships & Hard Truths ft. Sly Sterling | GTG Podcast

Apologies guys we had to reupload the audio , the file was corrupted during upload .Thank you those who reached out to let us know .This week, the girls are joined by Sly for what might just be one of our favourite episodes yet.And honestly? We covered EVERYTHING.We’re talking heartbreak, prison, mixed-race identity, relationships, masculinity, trust issues, life on the roads, and whether the good woman ever actually gets chosen 👀.Sly opens up about serving 6½ years in prison — the mental toll it takes, the reality of life behind bars, and what happens when you’re finally released back into the world. We get into knife crime, the illusion of road life, and why the stories people glorify online rarely show the full picture.But of course, because this is Get The Gist, we somehow also ended up discussing crying men, concubines, celibacy, Black Lives Matter, Instagram, baby mums, interracial dating and whether Sly should retire from rap 😭😂.Some of the questions we couldn’t stop arguing about:💔 Does the good woman ever actually get chosen?😭 Why do men bottle everything up?👀 Would you spin the block on an ex?📱 Is Instagram ruining relationships?❤️ How much should you really sacrifice for love?🎤 Should Sly quit rap?🌍 Can you be mixed-race and still feel like you don’t fit into one box?This episode is funny, honest, uncomfortable at times and full of those conversations that leave you thinking about them long after they’re over.So grab a cuppa, pour a drink and come get the gist ✨CHAPTERS00:00 – Birthdays, ageing & the best year of your life 🎂04:12 – Reality TV, vulnerability & when was the last time you cried? 😭09:50 – What actually makes a “good woman”? 👀12:20 – Heartbreak, ego & spinning the block 💔17:11 – Why relationships are harder than the movies make them look 🎬23:14 – Trust issues, toxic dynamics & surviving modern dating 😅29:10 – Wife, mistress or concubine?
