Cocktales with Kiki

Comedy, Personal Journals, Society & Culture

Cocktales with Kiki is the place where cocktails meet candid conversation, hosted by Kiki Said So. What started with wild stories about sex, dating, and relationships has grown into something bigger: the kind of conversations you have over dinner with your girls, in the group chat at 2 a.m., or after somebody says, “Okay, but can I tell y’all what REALLY happened?”

From love, friendship, and questionable decisions to pop culture, travel, internet rabbit holes, and whatever has Kiki curious this week, nothing is too random to make it to the table. Some weeks Kiki is riding solo, other weeks friends and guests pull up to add their own Cocktales to the mix.

Expect laughs, unfiltered opinions, unsolicited advice, a little mess, a lot of curiosity, and of course, a cocktail or two. Because life gives us plenty to talk about, and around here, every sip has a story.

  1. You Can Ring My Bell ft. Jamila Bell

    Episode 513

    Show notes

    This week on **CockTales with Kiki**, comedian, actress, writer, and content creator **Jamila Bell** is ringing ALL the bells—and we're getting in everybody's business! 🔔🍸
    From dating disasters and cheating exes to questionable Thanksgiving plates and the chaos of motherhood, Kiki and Jamila are cutting up, cracking jokes, and sharing stories that probably should've stayed in the group chat.

    Jamila gets candid about her love life, why she's never dated a man funnier than her, the time another woman called her from her boyfriend's phone, and why some relationships are strictly **for the plot**. Plus, she takes us behind the scenes of creating her new sketch comedy pilot and shares how she's turning years of content creation into something bigger.

    But the mess doesn't stop there! We're debating whether couples content is cringe, how to handle friends who turn into liabilities on vacation, why gentle parenting isn't for the weak, and what happens when somebody brings terrible mac and cheese to Thanksgiving. And just when you think we've covered everything, Jamila closes things out with a bedroom story featuring a man who barely made it past the starting line. 😭

    Grab a glass of this week's cocktail, **Ring My Bell**, and get ready for plenty of laughs, unsolicited opinions, and a whole lot of foolishness.

    **Because every sip has a story—and this week, we've got SEVERAL!** 🥂

  2. What the Hell Is Going On Anyway? | Dating, Family Boundaries & Friend Group Gossip

    Episode 512

    Show notes

    This week on CockTales with Kiki, we’re mixing vodka, lime, club soda, and a splash of delusion for a cocktail called “What the Hell Is Going On Anyway?” Honestly, it fits.

    Kiki catches us up on her kitchen adventures, from jerk oxtail to chicken shawarma, plus gardening, dinner-party plans, Halloween, and the fine art of dilly-dallying through life. The conversation takes a few turns through exes, dating and money, ancestry, family secrets, trauma bonds, and reincarnation. There’s also plenty to catch up on in reality TV, including The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City and Potomac.

    Then it’s time for Sip and Spill: friend group gossip, when to set boundaries with family, and navigating long-distance dating. Grab your cocktail, get comfortable, and come sip and spill with Kiki.

    How do you spend your time dilly-dallying? Got a story, dating dilemma, or question for Kiki? Call 404-692-0039 and stick around to help choose the next cruise!

  3. I Went to Bali for Peace...Came Home to Chaos

    Episode 511

    Show notes

    I went to Bali to find my peace, prayed for God to remove everything that wasn't meant for me, and came home to a LAYOFF! 😭 Be careful what you pray for, because apparently God does same-day processing!

    This week on **CockTales with Kiki**, I'm catching y'all up on my Bali girls' trip, the luxury villas, wild group challenges, spiritual revelations, and why I'm seriously considering relocating my entire nervous system overseas.

    But the real plot twist? After 12 years at my radio job, I got called into the office just to be laid off! We're talking unexpected life changes, career transitions, knowing your worth, and whether Venus retrograde has everybody's life in shambles. Is this a setback or the blessing I've been asking for?

    And because this is CockTales, we can't get too inspirational without getting into some MESS! 😂

    In this week's **Sip & Spill**, one listener shares a disastrous date with a lawyer who couldn't afford the drinks but somehow still managed to talk a big game in the bedroom. Another listener is caught in some strange best friend and marriage drama that leaves me with more questions than answers. Plus, we've got a spicy international hookup story from South Korea!
    We're talking dating disasters, broke men, friendship drama, travel adventures, spiritual resets, starting over, and learning when it's time to let things go.

    Have you ever asked God or the universe to remove something from your life, only to regret how quickly it happened? And what's the craziest dating experience you've ever had?

  4. Your Friends Don't Even Like You! | Fake Friends, Dating Drama & Relationship Advice

    Episode 510

    Show notes

    Some of y'all have fake friends, some of y'all talk too damn much, and some of y'all are planning weddings with men who don't even like you. We have a LOT to discuss!

    Kiki is back for a hilariously unfiltered solo episode of CockTales with Kiki, and this week, she's got questions. Why do people pretend to like someone just to keep a business connection? Is your friend copying your style because she admires you, or is she trying to steal your whole life? And why does your best friend know every intimate detail about your relationship?

    Before getting into the advice emails, Kiki takes a few hilarious detours through chaotic reality TV, The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia, Game of Thrones family dynasties, overrated baby showers, matcha obsession, and why everybody's boyfriend doesn't need to come to girls' night.

    Then things get messy in Ask Kiki, where we're tackling:

    • Fake friends who secretly dislike each other
    • A copycat bestie who's taking imitation a little too far
    • Whether to tell your friend you hate the man she's planning to marry
    • How much relationship business is TOO much to share with your friends

    It's friendship drama, dating advice, questionable behavior, and a whole lot of minding everybody else's business. Because Kiki might not always take her own advice, but she's got plenty for everybody else!

    Every sip has a story. Grab your cocktail and get into it!

    Have some messy business you need to get off your chest? Send in your anonymous confessions for Sip & Spill, or email your advice questions to advice@cocktalespod.com.Subscribe, leave a review, and tell us: Would you want to know if one of your friends secretly didn't like you?

  5. The American Dream Ain’t a Picket Fence with Ms. Pat

    Show notes

    Comedian, actress, author, and professional truth-teller Ms. Pat joins Kiki for a conversation that goes exactly where you’d expect it to… and then completely off the rails.Ms. Pat is celebrating her new book, Miss American Dream, and opens up about how her idea of “making it” has changed over the years. From once believing success looked like a house with a white picket fence to realizing that family, happiness, and breaking generational cycles are the real dream, she reflects on everything it took to build the life she has now.The two get into believing in yourself when nobody else does, separating friendship from business, learning to set boundaries as your success grows, knowing when it’s time to let people go, and why everyone around you can’t automatically come along for the ride.Of course, it wouldn’t be CockTales without things getting a little chaotic. Kiki finds out very quickly that she would’ve made a TERRIBLE drug dealer, Ms. Pat explains why Kiki has absolutely no street in her, and a Sip & Spill about a one-sided friendship turns into some brutally honest advice about jealousy, fake friends, and trusting what you already know.Plus, Ms. Pat talks about her marriage, raising a house full of kids, turning painful life experiences into comedy, her upcoming projects, and why after everything she’s survived and accomplished, happiness is still the ultimate American dream.Grab a drink because Ms. Pat came to tell the truth, hurt a few imaginary feelings, and leave absolutely no room for excuses.

  7. Interview With A Vampire with Nya The Vampire

    Episode 507

    Show notes

    This week, Kiki sits down with Nya the Vampire, the woman behind Atlanta’s all-Black burlesque revue, YAMMS, for a conversation all about confidence, sensuality, and taking up space unapologetically.

    Nya breaks down what burlesque really is, what people can expect at a show, and how the art form can help women reconnect with their bodies, femininity, and confidence. They also get into seduction, self-expression, feeling sexy without performing for anybody else, and what happens when you stop waiting for permission to be bold.

    Whether you’re already comfortable being the center of attention or still figuring out how to own the room, this one is your reminder that confidence is a practice — and sometimes you just need a little glitter, a little nerve, and a whole lot of audacity.

    We are sitting down for a wild CockTales with Kiki interview with Nya the Vampire to get the truth about the vampire lifestyle.

    In this episode, we step away from our usual relationship dilemmas for one of our favorite unique interviews. Nya joins us to break down what it really means to live as a vampire, separating the Hollywood myths from the reality of her day-to-day existence.

    Whether you are curious about alternative dating or just want to hear a perspective you definitely haven't encountered on the podcast before, this conversation covers it all. It is a fresh, weird, and honest look at identity that will keep you listening until the very last drop.

  8. Love, Friendship & Other Bad Decisions ft. Mandii B

    Episode 506

    Show notes

    It’s Kiki’s birthday episode, and Mandii B is back on the couch — which means there was never a chance this conversation was going to stay on one topic.

    Kiki and Mandii catch up on friendship, getting older, cutting people off, dating across age groups, and what it means when the relationships you’ve had for years no longer fit the person you’re becoming. Mandii also gets candid about being solo poly, why marriage and kids aren’t part of her end goal, navigating jealousy in non-monogamous relationships, and why knowing exactly what you want makes dating a whole lot easier.

    Of course, things get messy along the way. They get into who can and cannot say the N-word, why some people are obsessed with leaving a “legacy” through children, the pressure women put on romantic relationships, AI helping the girlies text men, rich auntie expectations, and whether people actually like the people they’re dating.

    Then Ask Kiki brings the perfect dilemma for Mandii: a listener is considering opening her relationship… except her boyfriend already has a coworker picked out. Is that ethical non-monogamy or just cheating with extra paperwork?

    And because Mandii is Mandii, she closes things out with a CockTale from Jamaica involving a nude pool, a very forward woman, a sea urchin, and a trip to the nurse’s station that somehow only gets wilder from there.

    Pour something bubbly and get into it — because this one is equal parts friendship, sex, relationships, hot takes, and pure chaos.

    Every sip has a story.

  9. Don't Make Me Match Your Energy

    Episode 505

    Show notes

    What happens when somebody switches up on you — do you protect your peace, address it, or give them exactly the same energy back?

    This week on CockTales with Kiki, Kiki gets into the difference between setting a boundary and just being petty, why changed energy can tell you everything you need to know, and whether “matching energy” is actually empowering… or just letting somebody else dictate how you move.

    Then Sip & Spill takes a turn when a caller shares a situation involving an ex resurfacing and a baby, raising some very real questions about old relationships, unexpected circumstances, and what happens when the past comes knocking with a whole new set of complications.

    Plus: flaky friends, knowing who really shows up for you, and why sometimes the best response to weird energy is not matching it at all.Every sip has a story — and this one comes with boundaries.

  10. The RSVP | Who Shows Up,Who Flakes, And What It Really Means

    Episode 504

    Show notes

    In this solo episode of CockTales with Kiki, Kiki gets into what it really means to show up — for your friends, your relationships, and yourself. After a Sip & Spill caller admits she’s nervous about planning a party only to have people cancel, the conversation opens up into flakiness, dating etiquette, last-minute cancellations, and the difference between protecting your peace and simply being inconsiderate.

    Kiki also answers an Ask Kiki letter from a listener who feels like she’s wasting her twenties waiting for the next chapter of her life to finally begin, plus another very different dilemma involving a boyfriend, old sex videos, and one extremely questionable camera roll.

    From RSVP anxiety to mixed signals and learning how to enjoy your life before everything is perfectly figured out, this episode is about who shows up, who flakes, and what it really means.

  11. PROSECCO, PLOT TWISTS & POOR DECISIONS ft. Dree Taylor

    Episode 503

    Show notes

    Every sip has a story… and apparently one glass of Prosecco has about 20.

    Dree Taylor is back, and this week we're catching up on everything from the RHOA reunion and our latest reality TV opinions to moving drama, family updates, expensive weddings, questionable decisions and the very real possibility that Whitley almost sent somebody to the First 48.

    Then the stories start STORYING.

    We get into some absolutely unhinged listener submissions—including a workplace hookup with more parts than a Netflix limited series—and Dree and I add a few confessions of our own. Somewhere along the way we're talking broken beds, sex on vacation, old flames, bad decisions, and why some stories only get funnier once enough time has passed.

    Grab a drink and come sit with us. Because around here, every sip has a story—and this week, we have plenty.

  12. Cheers To The Girls' Weekend! Reality Recaps & Revenge ft. Dree Taylor

    Episode 502

    Show notes

    Dree Taylor is back, and apparently all we needed was a cocktail and a microphone to cover every possible topic known to womanhood.

    We start with a truly unhinged edition of Weird Sex featuring jewelry made out of semen (yes, you read that correctly), then head to Westeros to discuss dragons, questionable family trees and why Kiki still needs somebody willing to cut a head off on her behalf. From there, we get into the Housewives friendship fallout, men with multiple wives, childhood crimes involving acorn pies, and whether there should be a statute of limitations on airing your ex out online.
    Somehow, we also end up planning Kiki’s funeral—complete with a hologram, a snatched casket body, possible haunting privileges and a plan to turn her ashes into a diamond. Because obviously.

    Then we get a little serious about friendship when a listener asks what to do when she realizes she may be the only thing keeping her friend group alive. Is it time for an honest conversation…or time to let that group chat die in peace?

    Plus: moving woes, air-mattress celibacy, and a little Bali temptation for anybody who wants to join the girls’ trip.

    Pour something strong.

    **Cheers to the girls’ weekend!** 🥂

  13. The Next Chapter: New Studio, New Show, Same Ol' Kiki

    Episode 501

    Show notes

    Welcome to **The Next Chapter of CockTales with Kiki** — new studio, new show, but don’t worry… it’s still the same ol’ Kiki.

    In this first official episode of the new era, Kiki is catching Production up on what’s changing, what’s staying exactly the same, and why CockTales is becoming even more like the group chat you never want to mute. We’re still talking **sex, dating, relationships and all the questionable decisions that come with them**, but now we’ve got even more room for pop culture, friendship, travel, life updates, random thoughts and whatever else has Kiki asking, “Am I the only one wondering this?”

    This week, a listener needs advice about mismatched sex drives and how to help his “good girl” girlfriend tap into her freakier side. Kiki has thoughts about libido, intimacy, foreplay, romance novels, sexual compatibility and why sometimes the answer isn’t another position — it’s actually talking to your partner.

    Then it’s time for the debut of **Questions That Need Answers**, including why everyone stands up the second a plane lands, why Atlanta restaurants insist on turning dinner into the club, and why the quietest person in the group chat somehow knows everybody’s business.
    Plus, **Sip & Spill** is officially open! One listener calls the Nightcap Number with a wild work-trip hookup involving a little heartbreak, a fine man, several drinks and one unforgettable one-night stand.

    New chapters don’t mean becoming somebody different. Sometimes they just mean making more room for who you already are.

    **In this episode:** sex and relationship advice, mismatched libidos, sexual compatibility, dating and intimacy, one-night stands, workplace hookups, friendship and group chat drama, solo podcast life, pop culture, travel talk, listener confessions and the beginning of a brand-new CockTales era.

    🍸 **Sip responsibly. Spill anonymously.**

  14. Special Delivery: "The End of an Era" ft. Medinah Monroe

    Show notes

    It’s the end of an era...but not CockTales.

    Medinah returns to CockTales one final time to share what she’s been up to, what she’s learned during this season of transition, and why she made the difficult decision to step away from the show after nearly 500 episodes.

    Kiki and Medinah reflect on growing up publicly, doing things scared, navigating new relationships, unlearning old patterns, and accepting when something meaningful no longer aligns with the direction your life is taking. They also discuss the pressure to give people every detail, why closure does not always come with a dramatic explanation, and how walking away does not have to erase the love, memories, and work that came before it.
    There are tears, laughter, old CockTales memories, a few final confessions, and an honest goodbye to the chapter they created together.

    Thank you to everyone who listened, supported, laughed, traveled, attended live shows, and grew alongside CockTales over the years. One chapter is closing, but the story is far from over. Stick around. Kiki has a few tricks up her sleeve, and next week, the new chapter begins.

  15. Is It the Move… or Is Mercury Drinking Gatorade Again?

    Episode 499

    Show notes

    Kiki is recording on fumes in the middle of moving week, surrounded by boxes, broken nails, damaged furniture, and enough bickering to make her wonder whether the stress is coming from the move or Mercury being in Gatorade again.

    She shares the chaotic reality of combining households with her man that’s not her man, why his approach to the homebuying process has left her feeling out of the loop, and how to support a partner who is stressed without sounding controlling or turning into their unpaid project manager.

    Kiki also breaks down how Mercury retrograde may be affecting communication, relationships, collaborations, and major life transitions, plus what everyone should watch for during the post-retrograde shadow period. Then, she opens up a conversation about breakups, closure, ghosting, and whether every relationship deserves an exit interview.

    Production, tap in with your advice, and get ready for Sip & Spill, the new segment where listeners can call the Nightcap Number with anonymous confessions, questions, and stories before drunk-texting their ex.

    Show notes

    QTNA: Questions That Need Answers

    Kiki has questions…and apparently, y’all are production now, so it’s time to clock in. 😂 This week, she’s catching you up on the chaos, the changes happening behind the scenes at CockTales, and why some updates may need to stay on mute until the keys are in hand.

    Then we’re getting into the real questions that need answers: Are your friends’ former hookups permanently off limits? Is keeping it a secret worse than actually doing it? Have you ever seen a man so fine you didn’t care if you or your homegirl got him—as long as SOMEBODY did? Why don’t men listen? And when does “being the bigger person” stop being maturity and start feeling like self-abandonment?

    Plus, Kiki wants to know why everybody is so serious on the internet, why some of y’all stopped listening to CockTales, what brought you back, and most importantly…what’s going to make you stay?

    Grab a drink, get in the comments, and answer the damn questions. QTNA. 🍸

  17. Ep. 497 "The Neighborhood Watch"

    Episode 497

    Show notes

    This week, Kiki is taking roll call: Production, where y’all at?

    From the pressure to be a “girl’s girl” to the very real question of whether we need everybody to like us, Kiki gets into the complicated ways we show up for other women, and when “support” turns into blindly backing somebody who may be dead wrong.

    She also addresses the nosy-bitch paradox: Why do we hate when people are in our business… but suddenly know exactly who to call when we need the tea? Is being nosy actually the problem, or is it what people do with the information once they get it?

    Plus, Kiki shares a show update, talks about the difference between online personas and real life, answers an advice letter from a listener who feels like she has made her boyfriend her whole personality, and makes a case for maintaining your own life...even in a loving relationship.
    Grab your Neighborhood Watch cocktail, mind your business, or don’t, and join the conversation in the comments.

    Episode 495

    Show notes

    The Family MeetingY'all... grab a drink because we need to talk.This week, it's just me and I have a LOT to catch you up on. We're talking missed episodes, tech disasters, Cabo, destination weddings, travel drama, and the story of how somebody almost drowned while wearing a life jacket.

    I'm also letting y'all all the way into my business and sharing a major life update: after years of doing things my way, I'm preparing for a huge new chapter that honestly scares me a little.

    Plus:
    • Cabo recap
    • Wedding weekend shenanigans
    • Travel anxiety and vacation arguments
    • The airport stranger story that had the internet talking
    • A truly unhinged Weird Sex involving an eel
    • House hunting updates
    • Moving in together while still claiming I'm single
    • Advice letters
    • What's next for me

    Pour yourself a Soft Launch cocktail and come sit down. It's time for a family meeting.

  20. The One Legged Drummer and Other Conversations We Shouldn't Have Had w/ Dree Taylor

    Episode 494

    Show notes

    Start managing your money better today at https://rocketmoney.com/cocktales

    Kiki and guest co-host Dree Taylor are back with another hilarious and chaotic episode of CockTales: Dirty Discussions. This week they discuss weird sex stories, fake industry friends, podcast life, dating preferences, New York culture shock, motherhood, and why some people really need attention 24/7.

    The conversation gets deeper when they respond to a listener struggling with whether to distance themselves from a family member accused of domestic violence — and how families often protect toxic behavior behind closed doors.

    The girls also open up about burnout, evolving friendships, preserving your energy in media, and whether podcasts have officially become the new talk shows.
