something we gotta talk about

ep 7: have I not given everything

Listen Later

We are giving Queen Mother, aka Auntie Angela Bassett all her flowers this episode following her Academy Award snub and chatting all things Vanity Fair Afterparty, including THAT Black excellence photo. Getting back into our TV show bag, we debrief on the latest season of You on Netflix, sparking the question… can people really change? In this ep, we also speak on the crime that is catfishing and the unseriousness of hatfishing because we really gotta know why a hat can change an entire head and face shape!?!? And following on from last week, we talk more about Black women hair and why representation matters when it comes to “beauty standards”.
