Black Hipster

Episode 111: Racism incident of the day comes courtesy of our latest Karen, Sharon Osbourne. A simple question during a talk show segment turned into a display of privilege, hostility and good ole racism. Honesty, racism isn't anything new but some people behave like they never heard the term and others flat out don't believe it exists! These people need prayer, an exorcism and a real good therapist.

Episode 110: These two hipsters saw Coming 2 America and were thoroughly entertained! Sequels can go either way and after 30 years we were glad to visit Zamunda again. We also discuss black movies and Shalwah gives us her own ideas for movie remakes. All you studio execs out there better pay attention!

Episode 109: Family can be tricky and often very complicated but when and where should you draw the line when it comes to ignorant relatives? Golden Globes, Emmy's, Oscars...meh. We say bring back Soul Train, The Source and the MTV Awards! Do we even have to say where we stand on the Anti-Asian attacks that have been rising in the U.S? Racial hate of any kind especially against groups of color stems from white supremacy. Let's unite people.

Episode 108: Disgraced drag queen Sherry Pie recently appeared on the Tamron Hall Show and the innanet had quite the stir. FKA Twigs' interview centering on a past abusive relationship brings up the not uncommon trend of blaming the victims. Sometimes these hipsters get deep ya'll.

Episode 107: For us Malcolm and Marie was an interesting study on the complex dynamics of a relationship. For nearly two hours, Zendaya and John David Washington argue, yell, and basically eviscerate each other with their words. Are real relationships like this? When arguing where is the line between fair game and hitting below the belt? How does self worth play into the equation? Why did John David Washington spend most of the movie with his shoes still on? Yes, we get into it!

Episode 106: How many of us were educated about credit before we started off on our own? For many of us credit scores and the information surrounding it still remain a mystery. This week our guest Bonita Grant breaks down some of the myths surrounding good vs bad credit, how to build it and how it affects many areas of our lives. Now that we have this information, we'll be getting in line for our own Tesla!

Episode 105: Look, we aren't old but we remember the days of T9 text messages, VCRs and paper address books. We have a love/hate relationship with social media and the controversy surrounding social media's Silhouette Challenge makes us cringe more than a little. Is broadcast television still a thing? With Netflix, Hulu and over 300 streaming programs in the U.S. is it really necessary to tune into cable? We've known for a while that Shalwah is a woman of many talents; add Superbowl producer to the list.

Episode 104: We spend the top of the episode talking about something that is near and dear to both our hearts, FOOD! We are all in for disciplining your children but with all the information out there about the possible negative effects, is spanking still a good method of punishment? He has a great career, he is kind, he treats his momma right but...he has several children by multiple women. Red flag or nah?

Episode 103: If you know these hipsters then you know Drag Race is one of our favorite shows. The latest episode served shady entertainment but also made us take a look at gender politics. We all know kids have what seems endless amounts of energy but are schools doing more harm than good by stripping kids of their much needed recess time?

Episode 102: We are not here for the negativity when it comes to the delicious Michael B. Jordan making it Instagram official with Lori Harvey. The new couple is cute and as long as he continues to appear in abbreviated clothing every so often; these two hipsters are more than satisfied. Divorce can be messy but what really has us trippin' is the growing cases of men seeking spousal support from their wives!
