April 22, 2021 Black Comedy, Joy and Group Therapy ft. Lala Milan
There is so much going on in the world and most of the time, life is just NOT funny and can be heavy, especially for us. We see the passing of icons, continued police brutality against young Black women and men, and there's still a pandemic. Laughter has been our medicine! Today, we're talking Black comedy, belly laughs and how we push through the pain. We also dive into the joy of Group Therapy aka the Group Chat.

And as we close out the season, we're letting you yes, you - GO OFF SIS! We listened to your messages, rants, glow-ups, and “tell em why you mad” audio and shared our faves! Lala Milan, our favorite funny girl to follow, joins the roundtable to give her *on point* advice for our audience, share her Private Investigator super skills, and tell us why she's never going back to corporate America.

April 15, 2021 Mercury in Micro Braids ft. Marsai Martin
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Ok, not really! It is Spring, but Mercury is in another retrograde or micro braid or even the 90’s flat-twist with the thick black gel. Remember!? However, Spring is also a great time for personal housekeeping, so we're pushing through and cleansing our mental, physical, and emotional palettes. We're talking about taking big leaps asking how are we restoring, reinventing, and spiritually recalibrating this season? Then, we chat with the youngest boss in the game, Executive Producer and Actress Marsai Martin for a conversation on those BIG leaps. We take a deep dive into her career, her #NoBlackPain project rule, taking a break, and that Big Leo Energy!

April 08, 2021 You're Gonna Get This Look ft. Ade Samuel
Black women are THEE trendsetters and always have been, so we're talking all things fashion and giving flowers to our fashionable selves! The trends we loved, the ones we hope never make a comeback, and the history of Black expression and cultural appropriation. But real talk, what's in your closet? This episode, we're asking ourselves: do we even need more clothes, are there really ‘Stimi-check” sales, can we be more sustainable, and why exactly does Black luxury feel like such a foreign concept? Then we sit down with powerhouse Fashion Stylist, Ade Samuel, who answers our burning questions on her career, how to build an ecosystem of Black creatives in the fashion industry, and styling on a budget. Sidebar: she has adorned and dressed our imaginary ex-boyfriends Michael B. Jordan AND Kofi Siriboe! Faint.

April 01, 2021 Planes, Trains, Automobiles and Anxiety ft. Jessica Franklin
This past year, you’ve dreamed of sun-soaked beaches and getting flewed out. You’ve spent months planning that post-panini trip, and gave side eyes to everyone who headed to the airport, because look, so did WE. So, this episode, we’re talking travel, because even though we’re not going anywhere just *yet*, we can dream.
From our earliest memories of hitting the open road to our current fears, and anxiety surrounding it, we’re breaking down the specific experience of traveling as a Black woman. We’ll also be chatting with Digital Creator and travel aficionado Jessica Franklin to talk about the places where we’re celebrated, the best international pick up lines she’s curved, and why she needs a two weeks notice if the next destination has water.

March 25, 2021 Are We Home Yet? ft. The McBride Sisters
Turn left, now turn right….do you like your home? If we’ve learned anything over this past year it’s that our homes – and feeling at home – can play a major part in our overall happiness. In this custom episode, we’re not bringing the receipts, but we’re reading them very closely to figure out why home is so important to us, many first and second-generation families, and our community, but we still don’t know how to even go about buying one. We’re also talking to Robin and Andréa of The McBride Wine Collection, two sisters who found home within each other, before becoming the largest Black-owned wine company EVER, and showing that Black Girl Magic isn’t just a catchy phrase, but also an international best selling business.

March 18, 2021 The Standards of Black Love ft. Meagan Good
What is Black love? In this episode, we're breaking it all the way down, from our Black couple goals to how vulnerability and sexuality play into what it’s like to love and be loved. We open up about dating as a Black woman, the love lessons from our parents, and what makes a good relationship work. Then, we get into it with the one and only Meagan Good, who's spent much of her career telling Black love stories, and has so many stories of her own she's now ready to tell. She shares some gems about being a woman of faith in Hollywood, getting over people not loving your energy, and how she came back to herself after a skin-lightening experience that changed her life.

March 11, 2021 Molasses And Melanin Love ft. Jill Scott
A year into this pon de’ replay we’re examining self-love and how we’re taking care of our own needs even if it seems…selfish. Our sisters share the ways they are good to themselves but how it can get challenging thanks to forces like social media. In talking with the self-love queen herself, Jill Scott shares the favorite parts of herself and the simple practices she uses to love upon mind and body. And like a true big sis, she’s giving us the advice she’d give her 15-year-old self while schooling us on why it’s important we take our time when it comes to love.

March 04, 2021 And The Award Goes To...Black Women ft. Brittany Packnett Cunningham
We’re kicking off season four with some THOUGHTS! We’re back and getting real about what we’ve learned and loved in 2020, along with what we’re looking for from each other and ourselves in this new year. Between people policing our culture and our bodies, we’re asking...who’s really protecting Black women? And why is the answer always...US? We also sit down with activist, educator, and all-around sister, Brittany Packnett Cunningham, to talk about love in the time of activism, what intersectional freedom means, and the power of ‘radical discernment’ for Black women in this panini press of a mess.
