Happy Black History Month! 🎉 This episode is a joyful, chaotic, and deeply opinionated ride through pop culture, the craft of acting and a little side-eye at the internet.

We shout out Phoebe & Jay on PBS Kids (because yes, grab the kiddos to watch), unpack Tamika’s habit of ghosting professional connections (RIP shared resources), and get a VERY dramatic breakdown of the upcoming Bridgerton season—plus Tamika’s extremely late arrival to Yellowjackets. We also question why Tamika still has TikTok as she gears up to break down Bridgerton episodes there…hmmmmm.

From declaring (once again) that 9–5s are a scam, to diving deep into Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan’s In Proximity podcast episode about Sinners (truly elite listening), we talk actor hierarchy, what it really means to be number one on the call sheet, and whether some actors secretly struggle with a “supporting role” mindset. We dig into acting processes—Meisner technique, staying in character vs. switching it off, classic horror gems, and Tony Todd getting paid $1,000 per bee sting in Candyman (DEDICATION).

We close with big life questions: Do you have to be a people person to be an actor? Why is it so hard to ask for what you want? And… people who record themselves crying—are y’all okay?

Moral of the story, new motto unlocked: Ask for what you want and crown yourself.

This week’s episode is a wild ride—and a hard 21+ only warning is absolutely in effect. We kick things off realizing we desperately need a theme song, then somehow take a left turn straight into a nipple discussion (don’t ask… just listen). Tamika gives us an update on her knee after a very ambitious Field Day mishap, and we debate a very important cultural question: Do men in California actually open doors for women?

From there, we get into the downfall of TikTok, why Tamika wants to try on JoJo’s wig—and why that idea is getting shut down immediately—and celebrate a real milestone: a full month of keeping a quick weave intact. Growth!

We also talk representation done right with Stumble on Peacock, a show with a plus-size lead that we’re officially tuning into. We have a proposal for Dating apps, to require video introductions—because reading out loud tells you everything. And finally, Tamika reveals her newest, most serious ick: people who eat Chipotle with a spoon.

Messy, hilarious, and completely unhinged—in the best way. Tune in. 🎙️

⚠️ Disclaimer: This episode was previously recorded, so a few hot topics may now be lukewarm tea — but hey, who doesn’t love a little time travel with drama? Relive the past, enjoy the ride, and hush.

This week’s episode is a perfect snapshot of why nothing ever goes exactly as planned—and why we love it that way. We kick things off with a conversation about the evolution of fashion, including one trend we’re officially ready to retire: charm embroidery on jeans (it’s time to let it go). From there, chaos quickly ensues as the cohosts debate whose internet connection is unstable… only to discover (again) that Tamika’s WiFi is the real villain of the episode.

Speaking of reminders, Tamika is told for the 1000th time that Jojo is from North Carolina, not South Carolina—yes, there is a difference. We also debate the best way to travel (road trips forever!)… although one cohost absolutely hates them—can you guess who?

Jojo then blesses Tamika with a very necessary 30-minute recap of Tyler Perry’s Sistas seasons 6 through 10, which naturally leads to the big question: is Sistas a soap opera, and if not, what actually qualifies as one? From TV to real life, we talk about the importance of art imitating life, especially as more shows highlight the ongoing lack of care Black women face in medical spaces.

Just when things are getting deep—Tamika’s WiFi goes out again. We pivot (as always) to Verizon’s declining cell service, the ever-confusing definition of plus-size, and give flowers to Keshia Ka’oir for pioneering the cinched waist era. We also ask the important questions: should Niecy Nash drop an undergarment line (because bawdy is TEA), and is the Miami scene actually overrated?

The episode keeps rolling with conversations about acting alongside seasoned performers, an invitation for AWCY to experience Carnival properly, and a sobering realization that children may no longer be our future—because cursive, checks, and analog clocks are apparently extinct.

Naturally, we end on a tangent, because closing out an episode normally has never been our strong suit—and honestly, would you want it any other way? 🎙️✨

Welcome to Season 3, and we’re already tired 😮‍💨. 2026 has officially started testing Jojo’s patience at work, so you know the vibes are real. This episode is a true culture grab bag as we dig into Cam Newton’s recent interviews—are we watching honest conversations, or a full-blown sociology experiment for clicks?

We break down award season chaos, from Sinners getting snubbed into a commercial break to celebrating Teyana Taylor’s Golden Globe win 🏆, and why Black spaces still matter deeply when it comes to recognition. We also talk hypersexualization in movies, revisit the classic I Am Sam, and debate whether today’s writers are forced to spoon-feed audiences thanks to shrinking attention spans.

Plus, we get a surprise call from Susie, side-eye rappers sharing the same dating pool, give flowers to Stranger Things for elite marketing, and react to Netflix’s new show His & Hers. We also touch (very briefly) on topics we absolutely refuse to touch—yes, that one involving Joe Budden and Keke Palmer 🚫.

Somewhere between being exhausted, wishing Chris would go on tour, campaigning to get our cohost cast in a music video, and mourning the lost craftsmanship of beauticians in the era of ready-made wigs and boho braids, we ask the bigger question: where did the creativity go?

Tap in—Season 3 is already unhinged. 🎙️🔥

Whew…we made it to the LAST episode of the season and baby, we left nothing on the table—except maybe a little unseasoned food 👀.

In this jam-packed finale, we ask the question everyone’s been wondering: Why is our co-host Tamika so indecisive? (No really…why? 😭)

We dive headfirst into our Lifetime movie review bag, breaking down Jerome Dickey’s Lovers & Friends Parts 1 & 2 (which JoJo absolutely ruined by revealing the plot 🙄) AND gush over Fake Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, because it was sooooo cute we had to.

The convo gets real as we talk marriage vs. committed relationships, why people don’t change—they evolve, and how in this era of chaos, what even IS real or fake news anymore? Somehow we’re still ending the year with no sponsors (brands, don’t be shy 😌).

Tamika shares gems from a Mel Robbins podcast that had her spiraling—in the best way—about how we’ve become mentally institutionalized, why we’re retiring “booked & busy” and officially entering our “booked & balanced” era.

Oh—and let’s not forget when Tamika played pregnant on set and shut down the entire internet 🫢. We talk travel plans for the new year, her birthday coming up, our collective Pay-in-Four addiction, and Tamika trying to find a wedding date with no plus one.

Just when you think we’re done—SURPRISE GUEST! And yes…it’s Tamika’s sister again 😂.

We wrap it all up with a deep (and slightly hilarious) truth: there is a cultural science and ancestral spiritual awakening required to properly season food. Period.

This finale is funny, chaotic, thoughtful, and very on-brand. Press play, laugh with us, and thank you for getting canceled with us all season long. 🖤✨

Get ready because this week we’re diving all the way into the world of Sext with the stars themselves! Writer, Executive Producer, and Lead Actress, Kierstyn Stevens and Lead Actor, Sterling Derrick join us for a wildly entertaining and deeply honest conversation you don’t want to miss.

Jojo kicks things off with a chaotic round of Rapid-Fire Questions (yes, things get spicy fast 👀). From there, we dig into the writing process, the vulnerability required to create, and how God’s timing has shaped their journey from concept to screen. We also get real about the power of community, the struggle creators face when asking for help, and the hilarious challenge of staying in character even when the scene gets awkward.

And of course… we couldn’t have the cast of Sext on without getting into dating advice, the truth behind men and grey sweatpants (Tamika’s fav subject), behind-the-scenes gems, and what’s next for the film.

Plus, we break down the illusion of looking like you can dance—apparently if you can master the body roll + stank face combo… you’re basically a pro. 💃🏽🕺🏾

It’s fun, it’s raw, it’s insightful, and it’s definitely one for the books. Tap in!

This week’s episode is a whole journey, okay! We kick things off with Tamika debuting her new quick-weave-over-locs situation—because if Black women aren’t redefining magic every week, then what are we even doing here? Meanwhile, Jojo is contemplating a full leap into vegan life after dairy betrayed her for the last time… or maybe she’ll just move out of the country and eat freely like the liberated queen she is.

We also revisit Monday’s engagement-boosting conversation: What trait do you wish other people had? Your answers gave range, depth, and a little spice. From there, we get into why failure and success hit everyone differently, what fame could look like for us in the future, and why Black women stay over-sexualized across cultures—whew, a topic we’ll never stop unpacking.

Plus, a call to Hollywood: we NEED a film adaptation of Seven Days in June by Tia Williams, immediately. We also talk continuity chaos in big box-office films (because once you work in the industry, your eyes can’t unsee the errors), and we gush over our early look at SEXT, the short film by Kierstyn Stevens that snagged a for your consideration NAACP Award nomination.

And if that wasn’t enough, we close with the double standards around sexuality, Tamika’s sudden inspiration to write an erotica novel, and a PSA that ginger chews are delicious but absolutely not chewable unless you’re trying to fund your dentist’s vacation.

Tune in for laughs, honesty, and the kind of chaos that only we can deliver.

This week’s episode is a hilarious, heartfelt, chaotic rollercoaster—and we wouldn’t have it any other way. With our co-host Jojo shown up sick (send her love and ginger tea!), The crew hold it down with a wild mix of debates, hot takes, and emotional moments.

We kick things off with the age-old showdown: contractions vs. period cramps—which one really wins the pain Olympics? Then we dive into whether celebrities can actually raise their children without the world consuming every moment.

We also honor the beautiful memory of BJ, Tamika’s nephew, with a touching birthday tribute. In his honor, we highlight philanthropic holiday family initiatives that bring light during this season of giving.

On the lighter (and louder) side, Tamika tells us about the birthday party she attended… featuring a rage room. We talk Thanksgiving dinner chaos, why Black Friday is CANCELLED, and Target’s eyebrow-raising new employee policy. Then we drag the acting world a bit: Actors Access fees, Backstage requiring cover letters??? and why the whole system feels like a scam.

Of course, no episode is complete without a little conspiracy spice, some real celebrity-encounter horror stories, and a shoutout to the best read of the year: Seven Days in June by Tia Williams.

We wrap with a truth nobody wants to admit: there’s no such thing as an ugly person—some people just can’t dress and we’re willing to die on that hill.

Funny, chaotic, comforting, and unfiltered—just how you like it. Tap in and bring a friend. 💛
