Our first episode back has tackling some heavy topics with the subject of HBO Max's documentary, On The Record. The controversial piece of work was the talk of the town once Oprah jumped ship, so the team had to sit down and watch. We discuss the stories of the Black women affected and the sordid story of hip-hop, in its relation to the objectification of women of color.

Talib Kweli is a troll. We all know this. With his "Blackstar" days behind him, he's put down the mic and picked up a keyboard to do his talking and Black women happen to be on the other end of his words. No bueno. Verzuz has been a bright spot for all of us in the music community during these times of distance. Cosi & Uchechi talk the good, the bad, and the ugly that Swizz & Timbo have offered us so far.
