April 15, 2020 Have a Fruit Bowl, Tramp! (Our Review of Waiting to Exhale)
Waiting to Exhale is an important movie in Black American pop culture. But we’ve never seen it. Listen as Kristal, a black woman, wishes she could go back in time and have warm and fuzzy memories about this movie like so many other black women; and as Paige, her white friend, goes full film student on this very fun episode. Whether you've seen this movie or not, we recommend adding this to your Quarantine Movie List.

April 08, 2020 Black Snacks (w/ Yusuf Ali)
Yusuf Ali is a stand up comedian living in Los Angeles. He is originally from Cleveland and he talks to us in this episode about “Black Snacks.” Get ready for a salty, sweet trip down memory lane. In our discussion of Black snacks we also end up talking about what it means to grow up in a segregated place like Cleveland and how you can learn things about your own culture from people you would never expect. Break out some Now and Laters (aka Nihalators) and get ready for a good laugh.
