Hey, what's up? This is Ramses Job. And I go by the name, Q Ward. And we'd like you to join us each week for our show Civic Cipher. That's right. We discuss social issues, especially those that affect black and brown people, but in a way that informs and empowers all people. We discuss everything from prejudice to politics to police violence, and we try to give you the tools to create positive change in your home, workplace, and social circles. We're going to learn how to become better allies to each other. So join us each Saturday

for Civic Cypher on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.

This is Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans with me, Cheryl Burke, and IHeart Radio podcast.

Hey guys, welcome to Sex, Lies sex lies and spray tans. Today,

we're going to kind of switch it up a little bit. And, you know, we don't have an interview,

but instead I am going to address my interview that I did on Amy and T.J.'s podcast that caused,

I would say, quite a lot of controversy and that had, you know, the press in a frenzy, to say the least.

So the purpose for me and the intention behind this specific episode is to once and for all really just address some incorrect information that has been printed out about me,

as well as answer some questions that I

also been receiving from our listeners so that I can just, you know, move forward. I'm about to turn

40 here on May 3rd. And I just really want to, you know, move forward and put everything behind me

and just have closure once and for all. And listen, I know I have a podcast about Dancing with the Stars. I will

always be Dancing with the Stars as number one fan. That's never going to go away, regardless of any

whatever you want to call it, disagreements, turmoil, whatever, there always will be love for me,

at least, from me to Dancing with the Stars. I can't speak for them, but I'll never forget

where I came from. So let's get started. So I have to say leading up to Amy and T.J.'s interview,

I lost a lot of sleep, even though I don't get sleep anyway, but it was really, I guess I felt like I was going to be on the stand and being

kind of interrogated by these two amazing journalists that do this for a living.

I guess I got really in my head prior to this interview and I was like trying to, as I do,

micromanage and try to be perfect, but we all know there's no such thing as perfection.

And what am I micromanaging?

Because the interview hadn't happened, right?
