The Way I Be Leaving These Men | Episode 96

In Episode 96 of She Said It First, Jerrilyn Lake (aka Indeskribeabull) and Lynee’ Monae kick things off exactly how you’d expect: jet-lagged, slightly irritated, and already over everybody. From messy travel stories and bodies forcing rest whether you like it or not, the ladies ease into a much bigger conversation about why modern dating (and men, specifically) seem determined to stress Black women out. The phrase “the way I be leaving these men” quickly reveals itself as less of a joke and more of a survival tactic, with Jerrilyn unapologetically standing ten toes down on disappearing when disrespect shows up.  The tone shifts as they dig into the very heavy reality of violence against women, asking the uncomfortable but necessary questions about accountability, rejection, and why abuse is so often dismissed as “mental health” instead of addressed as unchecked entitlement and rage. With sharp insight and zero sugarcoating, they call out society’s tendency to center abusers while expecting women—especially Black women—to carry caution manuals for simply existing. It’s sobering, but the honesty cuts through, making space for real talk about protection, public accountability, and why “just leave” is never as simple as it sounds.  True to She Said It First fashion, the episode balances deep commentary with humor and cultural side-eyes—from celebrities still getting too many passes, to church folks doing Olympic-level judging, to people being way too loud and wrong on the internet. Whether they’re unpacking faith, freedom, or why some people simply need to mind the business that pays them, Jerrilyn and Lynee’ remind listeners that love, boundaries, and discernment can (and should) coexist. Equal parts funny, fiery, and affirming, Episode 96 makes one thing crystal clear: behind every “disappeared” man is a woman who chose peace—and probably sleep.  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@u1pn  Follow:  @urban1podcast   @indeskribeabull    @lynee_monae  Executive Producer:  Jahi Whitehead/ @Jahi_TRG  Video/Social Media Producer:  Walter Gainer II See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
