Season 3 of Keyshia Cole: "The Way It Is" picks up right where the show left off last season. Frankie, Neffie, Manny, and of course Ms. K.C are all together again for another entertaining season.
Frankie, Keyshia’s biological mom and ex-crack addict was released from prison at the end of season 1. Since then she’s been trying to get her children to forgive her for her past mistakes. Neffie, Keyshia’s older sister, is a recovering/borderline alcoholic and mother of three beautiful little girls, whose husband is sleeping with her cousin. At the end of season 2 she found out she was pregnant again, but not by her "husband" and debating whether or not she wanted to keep the baby. Manny is Keyshia’s manager who works overtime to keep the peace and help support Keyshia as she juggles family and fame.
This season Keyshia and her family are still trying to work out their problems. Her sister Neffie moved out of Keyshia’s house into her own home that Keyshia bought for her and her 4 children (yep she kept the baby). Frankie, she’s still fighting, Hola! She has issues with Keyshia’s adopted mom Mrs. Cole for “turning her daughter against her.” But she’s also enjoying being a grandmother to Neffie's children and a mother to her long lost daughter Elite who moved to Atlanta and figures to be a part of the show this season. As for Keyshia, she’s recording her new album “ A Different Me” and looking forward to moving on and being happy.
I know what you’re thinking how can these dynamics co-exist? That’s the interesting part; they don’t (At least not all the time). Which makes for a lot of Reality TV Drama!!! Fights, Fights, and more Fights. Some might say this is a “hot ghetto mess” and at times it is. But if you look beyond the surface there’s a little of them in all of us. Whether you can relate to them or not there’s something quite endearing about these ladies.
I personally take my hat of to the beautiful and talented Ms. Keyshia Cole. She had to overcome a lot of obstacles to get where she is today. She’s had hit after hit and still she hasn’t forgotten where she’s come from and family is definitely an important part of who she is. Regardless of what you may think of the show, these ladies prove that it doesn’t matter where you start its where you end up that counts. Keyshia and her family have grown up right before our eyes, and its so much fun to watch.
The show airs Tuesdays at 10pm on BET.

This Friday on the Real Talk Radio Show we're having a Girl/Guy discussion. As young Women, Ms. B and Me, are
asking the questions young ladies want to know and we’re going straight to the
source. No second hand information here.
We are getting together with a diverse group of young men ages (18-25+) to find out what’s really good. We are talking about relationships (Good ones, Bad Ones), the dating and mating game, and getting a male’s perspective on what we’re doing wrong. Are good men really that hard to find? If not, then where do you find him? Can a cheating man change? How young is too young to think about marriage? We are getting the answers to these questions and more.
So ladies, if you have questions for our diverse group of young men call in live from 8-9 pm PST so we can talk about it. To shy to call in email your questions or comments to letstalk@realtalkradioshow.com and we’ll get the answers for you or read your comments on air. If you know a man who’d make a great guest and will keep it real we are looking for a few more men to be guests on the show. If you are a man who’s willing to keep it Real with the Ladies email us at letstalk@realtalkradioshow.com
I can’t wait ‘til Friday!!!

Overwhelming
youth support for President-elect Barack Obama in battleground states kept this
election out of reach for Sen. McCain, says Eric Greenberg, author of
"Generation We: How Millennial Youth Are Taking Over America and Changing
Our World Forever."
"This race would have been extremely close had the youth vote not been so active. Nationally there was an a large increase in the youth vote turnout, but it was their massive turnout in college towns in the battleground states that kept this election out of reach for McCain," Greenberg said.
Exit polls show that the youth vote supported Obama/Biden over McCain/Palin 66% to 32%, which is the highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age categories in 1976.

I had no idea how much work it would take to put together a one hour internet radio talk show. I'm willing to bet my 9-5 yearly salary that my hard working, three person crew had no idea what they were getting themselves into either. I guess it doesn't help that I'm a somewhat of a perfectionist when it comes to certain things, like my hair, makeup, clothes, putting myself out there as a radio talk show host (little things like that).

If Men are everywhere, the gas station, school, work, the club, church, why is it so hard for some women to find a good man? While we are young we aren’t necessarily looking for a Husband but how about a guy who’s honest, fun, educated, working and too mature to play games.
I’ve lived in Los Angeles my whole life and as I’ve gotten older, wiser and more mature I find and hear that it’s a challenge for a lot of women, black women in particular, to find a good man, especially in LA. If she’s looking for a good Black man, some say its nearly impossible, and personally I would agree.
While a good man is hard to find, once he FINDS YOU its worth the wait, trust me! Part of the problem is, a lot of us don’t like to wait. We want Mr. Right, Right now! Too often in our haste to find him we settle for the first, half decent, man to tell us what we want to hear (and they are so good and it aren't they?) When we really don’t want to wait we go out and look for him. We make the first move. We plan the first date, pick him up and end up paying for it all. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with introducing yourself to a man and being interested but there is something wrong if you have to hint, hint, shove, shove your number into his phone.
The truth of the matter is it’s not always fun to sit at
home on a Friday night or be out on the town for ANOTHER girl’s night out! What
I found is when you least expect it he’s right there. When you are working on
yourself and getting your stuff together he’ll find you. As women we don’t have to do much. If a
dude likes you he’ll show you. He’ll call when he says he’s going to call.
He’ll make the effort, and if he doesn’t, Oh well! Word of advice there’s no
rush, and please don’t settle. There are good men out here sometimes you just
have to wait for him to find you, but in the mean time have fun, do you!
