The Blame Game

 

**Patreon Episode - Visuals***
patreon.com/c/TogetherRealBad

In this Patreon episode of Together Real Bad, Beautifulll and Ace get real about navigating blame in relationships—from late-night matcha disasters to emotional misfires and unspoken expectations.

We kick things off with a check-in on work, wellness, and that one neighbor who might just be a villain. Then we get personal about family brunches, coming out, and why setting emotional traps (even unintentionally) never ends well.

💥 This episode dives deep into:

• Why blaming your partner never works

• Talking through conflict without pointing fingers

• Taking ownership (even when it’s not your fault… but it kinda is)

• Ego vs. understanding: what makes or breaks a healthy fight

• A hilarious and chaotic story about makeup, candy, and a hyped-up Yorkie Poo

🗓 Plus: updates on our live podcast salon with Queer News & E3 Radio, a Black-owned BBQ spotlight, pop culture recs (hello Love on the Spectrum), and the Netflix show we won’t be recommending.
