About this listen

A witty exploration of what it means to truly see yourself in a world that’s always watching by award-winning Issa Rae, costar of Barbie and producer of One of Them Days.

Remember a mortifying moment that made you self-aware? Honestly, Issa Rae remembers a few. In this illuminating essay, Issa follows her shoulda/coulda/woulda journey from awkward schoolgirl to a Hollywood life under the spotlight. Along the way she offers unfiltered insights into unwittingly courting controversy, curating a cautious but always authentic identity, and navigating the gap between private truth and public perception.

From writer, actress, producer, and New York Times bestselling author Issa Rae comes I Should Be Smarter by Now. In these essays, she shares her journey from internet creative to a multi-hyphenate career in Hollywood. Read or listen to them in a single sitting. Either way, they’re insightful, hilarious, and unapologetically authentic.
