2009 was a whole decade ago...like, what is time?? For the last episode of 2019, J.J. and Shayna dig through the archives to talk about their loves, learns and cancels from the past ten years. Since 2009, we survived the Great Recession, found comfort from the exhaustion of being Black in America in our chosen tribes, and loved the heck out of some kale. Both hosts are a year old and a whole decade wiser - thank you Lawd.  
Barring the actual end of days, we will see all of you lovelies back in January 2020. Enjoy your holidays - love you so much!

Thank you for coming back! This week, Shayna gives a much needed health lesson about the hymen and women owning their own bodies (looking at you, T.I.), while J.J. checks the optimism we had about for-profit colleges and one of America’s richest philanthropists. Plus: Our guest, Kanyi Maqubela, venture investor & managing partner at Kindred Ventures, gives us a crash course in becoming an investor, how it can lead to generational wealth, and how dropping out of college kick-started his career.
(Please excuse our small tech issue that has Shayna sounding far away during the interview!)
