Pour Minds Podcast — "My Lil Valentine" (Feb 13, 2026)
Hosts: Lex P & Drea Nicole
Episode Overview
This episode is a Valentine’s Day-themed conversation between co-hosts Lex P and Drea Nicole, two single Houstonians living in Atlanta. They blend comedic storytelling and candid opinions about love, dating, self-care, and friendship—all with their signature wine-infused, unfiltered energy. The discussion covers Valentine’s Day dos and don’ts, thoughtful gifting, social etiquette with kids, wild skin care trends (semen facials, anyone?), and more, concluding with listener advice and their playful musical sign-off.
Key Discussion Points & Insights
1. Solo Episode Vibes and Audience Requests
- The hosts embrace their solo-episode format, joking about past guests and the potential for a fan-featured episode—but worry about fans getting too nervous in front of the camera.
- “We ain't got no guests today.” (03:39, Lex P)
2. Fashion Talk: Burgundy, Neutrals, and Timeless Pieces
- Drea and Lex discuss their love of burgundy in fashion, despite TikTok saying the color is “tired.”
- They reminisce about American Apparel’s quality ("I've had these pants for 10 years!” – 09:11, Drea Nicole) and diss fast fashion (like Fashion Nova) for its lack of durability.
3. Valentine’s Day Traditions, Etiquette, and Relationship Boundaries
A. Child-Focused Etiquette in Public
- They react to a viral TikTok where a mom is angry someone didn’t wave back at her child.
- Lex: “Not everybody likes kids. If I don't wanna wave at your baby, I'm not gonna wave at your baby.” (12:16)
- Drea adds it's not that deep—babies forget and don’t care; it's mostly about the parent's hurt feelings.
B. Valentine’s Day 'No-Nos' — Things You Should NOT Do
- The hosts discuss relationship deal-breakers and cringe-worthy Valentine’s Day moves:
- Oversized Stuffed Animals: Cute when younger but now just in the way. (19:05)
- “I don't want no big ass bear. That's the same size as my n***.”* (19:05, Drea)
- Holiday Proposals: Don’t propose on V-Day, birthday, or other holidays—it’s predictable and not truly personal.
- “I want it to be my day. A special day that's about me, not about nothing else.” (26:58, Drea)
- Forgetting Valentine's Day: Unforgivable—even a small gesture matters.
- “If you don't do nothing for Valentine's Day, that's grounds for a breakup.” (35:11, Lex)
- Group V-Day Dates: Fun idea for established couples—not a yearly thing, but nice for variety. (29:27)
- Oversized Stuffed Animals: Cute when younger but now just in the way. (19:05)
C. Thoughtfulness Over Expense
- Meaningful gestures (like a handwritten letter) always trump flashy gifts.
- “Being thoughtful on Valentine's Day can honestly be cheap as hell.” (35:11, Lex)
4. Game Segment: "He Could Fold Me Up?"
The hosts joke about different archetypal men and whether they’d let them "fold them up" (i.e., date/hook up).
A. The 'Doesn’t Celebrate Holidays' Guy
- Both agree: Absolutely not.
- “People who try to be too woke about holidays? You're just being lazy.” (38:34, Lex)
B. The “Pop-Up on Valentine’s” Guy
- Scenario: A guy you haven’t spoken to suddenly resurfaces for a V-Day hookup.
- Lex is open if she’s single: “If somebody hit me up from the past and we can have a little rendezvous, that’s fine.” (43:41)
- Drea: Only if you can keep him from getting clingy. (44:12)
C. The 'Hood Romantic'

Voicemail: A woman asks for advice after a man wants a threesome with her friend, then asks how the friend would feel about “fucking with him.”
