Welcome to the beginning of season 4 of this smart foolishness we got going. Join us for a celebration of the excellence of En Vogue, the disappointments of some n*ggas we used to know who ca sang, and a preview of upcoming episodes. In the words of Terry, Cindy, Maxine, and Dawn, "It doesn't matter what you do or what you say, she don't love you...no way." Think on that. #staywoke

It’s Black History Month y’all! Get it how you live it. In this final episode of Season 3, COVID and Chemo take another fond look at one Lionel Ritchie, aka “Lion-el” the icon on the purported “greatest night in pop.” We also must insist on an audit of the integration project after reviewing the tireless and united efforts of so many excellent Franklins, who used their powers to summon even a couple halting notes from these yt “superstars.” Ongoing questions include: 1) did Stevie reveal to us a secret true magical Negro spell for banishments? 2) Who is Kim Carnes? 3) Where is the demo tape? We broke, but we will pay good coins for it.

Welcome to COVID and Chemo's 101 class on The Eighties. IYKYK. Content warning: This episode contains potty humor and butt jokes. But when isa butt you living in, what else are you supposed to do, we ask you? Anyway, back inna day, in the eighties in fact, there was a show called "The Facts of Life." Them girls was going through it. Much like ourselves. Hmm. Maybe living in a butt IS a fact of life... Please enjoy this episode. #staywoke

N*ggas with podcasts are a problem. Yes, we are aware of the irony. And, yet and still, we hold that not all n*ggas need microphones. In this third installment in COVID and Chemo's hip hop debates series, we discuss the phenomena of current hip hop media stars and their prominence and review whether or not they should keep those mics. Also, we have a new segment for y'all: "The CnC 2025 Watchlist." Also too, get yo dead salmon hats ready for the new season of orca fashions if you know what it is. #staywoke

We found another one, y'all. 👀👀 Up at bat, this secret n*gga was able to get away with 714 home runs surrounded by yts, including Ty Cobb, who was never mystified about the melanated darkness deep inside of one Babe Ruth. COVID and Chemo's researches have revealed his penchant for Black friends, Black lovers, pro-Black activism, Blacked-up baseball, and an all around n*gga-fied lifestyle that inspires and convicts. Also in this episode, the dynamic duo discusses OluwaStephen of Love Is Blind Sn 7 fame and introduces our ninth, yes ninth, Horseman of the Dating Apocalypse: The Skeetin' Scammer. May the ancestors protect us. #staywoke

Ugh.

Once upon a time, many, many Blacks like COVID and Chemo had to struggle against bad faith arguments about racial identity after a whole entire yt lady in kinky twists, wigs, and braids, wig-caps, bonnets, and Badu headwraps was the head of the Spokane, WA chapter of the NAACP. In case you late, the "C" stands for "colored" and not "chicanery," which is what this infamous race-fakin' woman was on, leaving a trail of Black sorrows and strife in her wake with each delulu step. Some of y'all already know what it is, but everyone is welcome to join COVID and Chemo for a deep dive into the phenomenon of race faking, Blackfishing, and perpetual minstrelsy in the yt community. Also, that yt lady Elizabeth Finch is not only responsible for writing the senseless exits of beloved fictional characters on Shonda's hospital show, but she is also a whole entire lie. #staywoke #yakiaintforeverybody

Netflix’s Love Is Blind is international. And COVID and Chemo have discovered that more things are international than ever we thought. Who knew that the self-esteem eating gremlin we call Fatty McFat-Fat had an equally fatphobic cousin running amok in Mexico? Who could have foreseen that papas of a rolling-stone variety were in such living color in the UK? Join us for a CnC-style emergency sketch of these most recent installments in the LIB series; we got both the spoilers and the tea for y’all. Finally, if you, dear listeners, were as alarmed as we were by what Glenn Close had said in “The Deliverance (Banjos Sold Separately),” we respect you. ✊🏾✊🏽

Welcome to COVID and Chemo's oft-promised episode dedicated to all the Tylers. We see y'all.

Further, discover a scathing consideration of Perry, a Tyler we do not recognize, who treated us to the personage of one Coe-J "You Tryna Lose Yo Job Bish" Jackson Simpson Gooding. #staywoke
