No Hipsters Pod

Vanede founder Nneka Obiekwe stops by to discuss the Trey Songz scandal, new developments in the Megan Thee Stallion & Tory Lanez incident, and the incredibly tacky BreonnaCon.

Zoezi founder Yvonne Bulimo joins us to discuss ‘Black Is King,’ Noname’s wannabe-woke antics, Loon’s release and the general misfortune of Bad Boy artists, Madonna’s embarrassing behavior, and so much more.

Political strategist and education advocate Chibundu “Bunz” Nnake stops by to discuss Kanye West’s first rally, Nick Cannon and his raggedy hotep theories, Travis Scott’s disregard for T-Pain, the Tory Lanez/Megan Thee Stallion incident, and so much more. (Executive Producer’s Note: If parts of the episode sounds disjointed or like we’re talking over each other, it’s because the audio file is out of sync. Anchor doesn’t want us to win.)

We discuss Will & Jada’s excruciating Red Table Talk conversation, Chris Cooper’s decision to not testify against Amy Cooper, and so much more.

We discuss Jada Pinkett Smith & August Alsina’s relationship, open marriages, the BET Awards, Amanda Seales, the EU travel ban, and so much more. (Note: This episode was recorded on July 3, 2020.)

Author Doreen Caven stopped by to discuss Russell Simmons’ casual return to the public space, the complicity of powerful Black men, Noname and J. Cole’s Internet squabble, and Beyoncé’s Black Parade Route. (Executive Producer’s Note: If it sounds like we’re talking over each other more than usual, it’s because the audio file somehow went out of sync by about two seconds.)

BlackWomenViews founder Reecie Colbert stopped by to discuss the #DefundThePolice movement, the wave of racial awakening sweeping across the nation, the Veepstakes, Jess Hilarious’ frustrations with accountability, and the new Dave Chappelle comedy special.

We discuss the unjust killing of George Floyd, the rioting that followed, and other related topics. (Note: This episode was recorded before the charges against Derek Chauvin were upgraded.)

We discuss Lana Del Rey’s jackassery, Doja Cat’s TinyChat scandal, Michael Jordan and our habit of worshipping jerks, and Joe Biden’s foot-in-mouth syndrome. (Note: This episode was recorded on May 23, 2020.)
