New TWO DEGREES Go Fund Me “SIZZLE”
Gilliard Media Group, LLC PROMO
Conversation With Carl & Latonya: #Anniversary2019
Our anniversary film for 2019 (our 5th) takes a dive in marriage mentality and perspective. Choose the 80% that is good and not on the 20% that may be challenging. That 20% likely contains an opportunity for God to grow and mature us. When that 20% is squarely in an underdeveloped area, it can cause us to perceive problem is bigger than it really is;causing us to focus away from the GREAT THINGS we're experiencing. I definitely learned that and even in the toughest moments with Latonya, I can now recognize it's a growth opportunity for me.
TWO DEGREES Crowdfunding Film
Executive Producer, Writer/Creator & Lead Actor Carl Gilliard along with Executive Producer & all around great brother, Don Fullilove lay out the appeal to invest in their NEW DIGITAL SERIES, "TWO DEGREES". "Two Degrees" begins shooting JANUARY 11, 2020 and is set to STREAM starting MONDAY, APRIL 20, 2020. This comedy loosely based on the rants of Carl Gilliard's TWICE MARRIED BROTHER
Twice Married Brother Minute: The Case of Love & Starburst Jellies: A TWICE MARRIED BROTHER BIRTHDAY Testimony. ANYONE who knows me knows I have a wicked 'sweet tooth". My wife Latonya did a small gesture that communicated LARGELY that she knows what makes me happy and how to love me....in other words, she pays attention. We men (at least I do) don't always succeed at communicating with our women using their love language. It's like a LIFETIME PROJECT to get right....but it's so cool to have a lady in your life what wants to see you happy where it's actually important to her. I've heard of situations where brothers are argued down just by telling their woman they liked 'birthday cake'. Small thing, yes....but it's what they wanted.....well, I love Birthday Cake.....and I know I'll see one before the sun goes down...and I'll enjoy that cake while she smiles giving it to me. Sounds simple? Well, it is....but you'd be surprised at how many fights go on between couples where one is expressing what they like with the other one saying how stupid it is. LOVE PEOPLE HOW THEY NEED.......
Thankful for another year and another chance to get it right! #Servant #Artist #Actor #Producer #ChildOfGod #Husband #Father #Son #Grabdfather #ChiliMaker #HotWingsLover #ActionFilmJunkie #Connector #PoliticalJunkie #AlphaMan #TruthLover #ManOfIntegrity #GilliardMediaGroup
Twice Married Brother 1:00: COMMUNICATION. Effective communicators are also great listeners. When we listen, we should seek to hear the heartfelt intention of the person and not what we want to hear. What is the person actually saying? I really hate when someone TELLS ME what I said who aren’t interested in any clarification. I work hard to be sure that I have clear understanding of what’s being communicated....and it’s good to monitor what crap we bring to our relationships which can deter our ability to understand another person. So much discord and drama can be averted by simply stepping back and granting another the benefit of the doubt. Don’t we ALL want to be heard and understood? We may not agree...but disagree with what I’m saying....and NOT what you think I said based on stuff inside you that has ZERO to do with us. There’s a LOT LESS of those folk around me now. I’ve learned. #61

Twice Married Brother 1:00. #APPRECIATION. Everyone wants to be appreciated in relationships...but, as men...speaking broadly and generally? WE ARE PRETTY EASY to please....not complicated. We understand how complicated ladies can be; some more than others...but we sure appreciate you when you effectively strike the balance between kind positive reinforcement and criticism and appreciation and acknowledgement of efforts we make to see you smile. When your complaints are huge while we are conscientiously trying hard? It’s very discouraging and disheartening. When we love you? All you have to do is “say it” and it registers....that’s the husband genie. Kindness rules. Try it. It works. #PositiveReinforcement #Love #BlackLove #MarriageWorks #Dating #MenWhoMarry #LifeChoices #MarryMenWhoWillDieForYou #ChristianMarriage #RewardHim #BeKindToEachOther #BeatEachOtherGiving #DoYourBest #TradeUpsAreFoolish #CarlGilliard #GilliardMediaGroup

Gilliard MAN RANT: Lately, I’ve run across SEVERAL POSTS by YOU ladies...co-signed BY MANY of you about the DEARTH of good men and how we BEHAVE WITH YOU. Point One: I’m CERTAIN it’s true. I know that TODAY MORE than ever, brothers are commitment phobic and disingenuous. POINT TWO: Men DEAL with SIMILAR PROBLEMS with your sisters; perhaps someone VERY CLOSE to you, IF NOT YOU. I’ve been posting videos for some years now. When you ladies (rightfully) rant and complain about the man market? Great. But when men espouse our experiences, we are bashing you; as IF it’s not true. It’s not Wholly true, but it’s FAR MORE true than you think. Dating is difficult for EVERYONE...so let us keep an open mind, protect our hearts....and don’t project negativity because you’ll end up attracting exactly what you say you do NOT want....then lastly? Many of you say you want a communicative man who freely expresses his feelings? I can safely say that is NOT TRUE generally!
TWICE MARRIED BROTHER RELATIONSHIP POLL: Much is said about men who are lacking in this or that area, but very little is said about expectation. (MOST) men are so influenced by “pleasing” and “impressing” you, we’ll do anything WHEN we’re into you. My MOTHER taught me to ALWAYS OPEN and HOLD DOORS for ANY LADY in my presence....yet, it’s rarely expected or APPRECIATED. In my dating days (and I’m 60)....far fewer ladies even expected this!!! Is it me? #HOLLA. #RelationshipRules #Men #Ladies #LoveAndDating #Expectations #WeDoWhatWeCanGetAwayWith #Respect #Appreciation #Chivalry #IsChivalryDead

Twice Married Brother 1:00. FIVE MISTAKES “SINCERE” Hearted Men make when dating. (There are MANY MORE...these overlap, but these five were things I DID and know MANY BROTHERS do). LAST ONE. DON’T CHASE. #Pursue. There is a difference. We men put ourselves at a personal disadvantage when we CHASE LADIES who likely will never “get” or “accept” us as we are. We aren’t here to BREAK or WEAR her down....we’re there to reveal the POWER of WHO WE ARE. Either she gets it or she won’t get it...but the begging...chasing, cross examination of her as to WHY NOT ME? Save your energy for the QUEEN God has designed for you. She’s waiting. Move these others outta the way. Not personal...they’re time wasters. #RelationshipsGoals #GoodMen #MarriageIsForAdults #StopChasing #SaveYourMoney #Dating #SmartDating #DateToMarry #GetOffTheSidelines #GodlyKings #TwiceMarriedBrotherSFiveMistakes #DontBeScurred #ForwardMotion

Twice Married Brother 1:00. TODAY, another mistake that “sincere” hearted men make while dating. THIS ONE has GOT to be THE MOST COMMON. As a young man, I was VERY GUILTY of doing this and even TODAY, this is where I talk more brothers through. (YOU LADIES MAY TAKE OFFENSE TO THIS). #TheLeadOn. We spend TOO MUCH TIME on ladies who aren’t INTO US and will NEVER, EVER, EVER see us as a romantic option. She’ll give us “just enough” energy to get us to keep trying though. CUT YO LOSSES DAWG. BOLT!!! Be a gentleman. Be kind and dignified....it may circle back later. Maybe. But BOLT!!! I’d never suggest that the ladies are doing this purposefully...and that doesn’t matter...but my experience taught me that we know where we’re going pretty early and it’s mutual! #GoWhereYoureWanted #RelationshipGoals #MarriageShouldBeTheEndGame #TrueLove #RelationshipBuilding #HealthyRelationships #DontBeASuckaSucka #UnlessYouWantTo #DawgDudesSeeThisAsGame #DawgsWillWearYouDown #Marriage #BeAGentleman #HaveFun #UtilizeOptions #PlentyOFish🌹

Twice Married Brother Minute: 5 Mistakes SINCERE HEARTED MEN make while dating. Do NOT FORCE what does NOT FIT into your life! No matter how good it looks, feels or sounds. Leave the merchandise IN THE STORE. I use the “furniture store” analogy to illustrate what MANY OF US have done to derail our dreams and waste not only OUR TIME, but the time of the ladies we are engaging! #PurposeDriven #MarriageMindedMen #RelationshipGoals #HusbandMaterial #WifeMaterial #GodCentered #KnowYourPurpose #AllThatGlittersAintGold #PleaseShare
Check out ALL BETWEEN US, now available on AMAZON (for rent or buy) and at BEST BUY. Let me know what you think. I’ve always wanted to play “unlikable” characters. “Mr Tillman” in ALL BETWEEN US” Dad to Denyce Lawton’s “Clara” who gives “Ray” (Brian Hooks) a tough way to go. After playing THOM is Don Welch’s “Sweet Lucy’s Love Lounge”, I’m enjoying making “mean” look fun! (My wife says I play these mean characters to a tee). 😂😂😂😂 #GilliardStillActs 🎭🎭🎭🎬

TWICE MARRIED BROTHER 1:00. QUESTION OF THE DAY. Ladies: What are YOU looking for in the man you’re expecting to step into your life? We KNOW there MUST BE ROMANTIC chemistry. What’s important to you? Is it achievable and are there any negotiable items. Hit me up here! 🌹🌹🙏🏿♥️
Twice Married Brother’s #Top10. #1. #OurLifePurpose. Genesis 2:18. Then the Lord God said, “It is not GOOD for the man to be alone; I will make him a “helper” SUITABLE for him. This is God’s original idea for the covenant of marriage. It’s eternal. It’s irrevocable and not “easily” broken, though we’re allowed and often DO BREAK IT. It’s discerning our unique purpose, then walking, working in, developing and believing in it. Some of us learn this early. Others later...then some like me KNOW IT, but are wobbly and unsure...and that is what torpedoed my marital situations. A serious lack of discipline and weak faith. We must stand and even be willing to pass on who might be a great lady (on paper), but a horrible match for BOTH OF YOUR LIVES. She’s not a believer and WILL, in good faith, steer you away from what you’re supposed to be doing....and money...for the purpose driven man, isn’t why we do it EVEN THOUGH MONEY does come when we’re faithfully obedient and focused...executing our marching orders. This is THE NUMBER ONE challenge for men who are marriage minded....we can more easily attract and discern who our “suited” lady is. She’ll be your Proverbs 31 woman and will view being YOUR WIFE; even during the TOUGH TIMES, as honorable...and she’ll make you BETTER at BEING YOU Vs HER version of what SHE THINKS you should be!!!
Twice Married Brother Minute’s #Top10: #2: #PURPOSE. SHE MUST BE, without equivocation or compromise, connected to and have a visceral stake in YOUR PURPOSE....in fact, this MIGHT BE the ONE THING that SETS HER APART unless you’re already accomplished in your purpose OR RICH ALREADY...and if that’s the case, you’re likely TAKING NUMBERS and have a lady “waiting list”. This one sees it because her intuition is in FULL OPERATING MODE and she’s so connected to the QUEEN in her that she’s SURE that SHE’s the ONLY ONE that can “help” you maximize your gifts (Genesis 2:18). When we get THIS WRONG and marry on “her terms”, she’ll eventually be unhappy which means you’ll be like a hamster on his treadmill...circling, chasing your tail, then coming up behind. This isn’t on her to see this fit and how it works over a lifetime. It’s ours.
Twice Married Brother 1:00. TOP10: #3: #YourVoice. Can she “hear” your voice. Positionally, if MARRIAGE is the end game, can she “accept” and “yield” to your leadership? You can’t LEAD every women you’re dating...and when we “slip” and “marry” the one who can’t (or won’t) respect our “position”...which isn’t the same as BEING run over, there’s trouble...in fact, you’ll find that leadership being unnecessarily (and endlessly) challenged because IN THESE CASES, it is UNNECESSARY...due to her incapacity to submit to. YOU....GOD.....or ANY person or entity. THIS IS NOT YOURS to fix. Detect it in the dating phase, then take the “exit ramp” OR keep it cleanly “girlfriend”...because it won’t matter much. ALWAYS do the right thing by her, admit mistakes when we make them and LOVE HER, as Christ loved the church and GAVE HIMSELF for it. When we DO that to the BEST OF OUR ABILITY...and reveal our true hearts to her? THE ONE we’ve chosen...if she’s ours and for us? She can “hear” us. #RelationshipGoals #BlackLove #BlackMarriage #LoveAndMarriage #RelationshipAdvice #WhatAManNeeds #Womens #Men🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Twice Married Brother’s TOP 10: #4 #HerTribe. Be aware of the “caliber” of her friends and confidantes. Not to judge them...but to prepare yourself. Observe how THEY respond to marital pressure and how they interact with each other during those times. Are they good with accountability? Having close friends is a blessing...but it’s the “type” of friendships they give accountability and trust to. Do they encourage honesty or is it superficial. Do they challenge each other to be better wives as opposed to individualistic pursuit? When the shoe falls; whether deserved or no....YOU WILL BECOME tried, convicted and guilty by THE TRIBE of the SEVERAL....pursue peace gentlemen 👊🏿🙏🏿. #Relationships #Marriage #BlackLove #Dating #RelationshipGoals #TwiceMarriedBrother
