We're halfway through Black History Month and you know what that means...it's time to hear from the Queen herself, Chelsea Olivia! Patrick and Chelsea have been friends for almost 10 years and they're here again during BHM to talk about brands backsliding on the progress made in 2020 and 2021 as well as addressing some of the biggest questions that people have about Chelsea...like why is she not seen with certain influencer friends anymore?  The two dive deep on a special project Chelsea has launched called The Inner Circle with Chelsea Olivia, and they even touch on how Chelsea's handled the Alabama football losses and the Philadelphia Eagles losing the Super Bowl.  Actions To Take During Black History Month:  https://patrickweaverblog.home.blog/2021/01/18/how-to-honor-dr-martin-luther-king-jr-today-everday/ Follow Chelsea on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@chelseaolivia136?lang=en Follow Patrick on IG: https://www.instagram.com/patrickweaverblog/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/behind-the-filter-podcast/support

PWB had to give his two cents on the entire MascaraGate and what he thinks Makayla should do from a PR standpoint and what his advice would be if he was her publicity team. But then he gives ya'll the literal laws surrounding product endorsements and disclosures that apply to ALL influencers from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and what he does to ensure his followers know when he's being paid by a brand and his thoughts on all things transparency!  Follow Patrick on IG: @patrickweaverblog Follow BTF on IG: @behindthefilterpod --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/behind-the-filter-podcast/support
