The Kobe Warner Show

Hey y’all! This week I talk about colorism & how privilege is informed by proximity to whiteness. Of course I’m still me, so the anecdote I use to introduce this conversation is the treatment of RHOP’s Candiace Dillard-Bassett. You don’t have to be a housewives fan to be privy to this conversation, though, as I just used the gaslighting of Candiace as an example of blatant colorism. As a lightskin/mixed black person, I feel a certain responsibility to stand up for other black folks (especially black women) whose voices are often drowned out by the noise. With this being said: I’d like to acknowledge that I am aware I'm not an ideal leader for a conversation like this and welcome any of you to reach out to me if there’s something you feel I missed or misrepresented. Love y’all!

Hey y'all, this episode has it all! Including but not limited to: books, music, reality tv, boy talk, and... law enforcement. Oh my! I talk about both (2) scary, personal encounters I've had with the police, as well as fun stuff like: securing a ticket to the RENAISSANCE World Tour in Nashville, Bretman Rock's new book, and my favorite reality TV show of all time, the Real Housewives of Atlanta. I hope you enjoy this tea-filled episode, there's more where that came from from! xo

Hey! This week I talk about trying to get tickets to the RENAISSANCE world tour, Jeffree Star's corny comments about non-binary people, the Real Housewives of Potomac's Candiace Dillard-Bassett, season 15 of RuPaul's Drag Race, and Rihanna’s INCREDIBLE halftime performance. See you next time!

The Grammys were last night and there was a lot going on chiiiile. There were some great moments like Lizzo winning ROTY and Beyoncé becoming the most Grammy awarded person in history with 32 prizes, but I do wish that Bey had taken home AOTY for RENAISSANCE. That might come up a couple times throughout the episode [or a bunch, LOL.] I talk all about Harry, my girl Adele, and a very drunk - but supportive - Taylor Swift. Drunk Taylor is my fav. I also talk about non-binary Broadway performer Justin David Sullivan whose badass decision to abstain from Tony award consideration due to the gendered nomination categories has been a topic of debate online recently. All this and more on this week’s KOBLIZZY!

Whew. This week I talk about this boy I liked for yearsss and while it is an entertaining story, the message ain't playing: you have to see the value in yourself, because other people won't always do it for you. I had to learn that lesson - and that this boy didn't really care about me - over and over again until it stuck. So take my word for it... and without further ado...

This week I discuss a church I attended for the better part of my childhood. As a 15-year-old child, I experienced homophobic scrutiny from adults who worked there. This episode is largely about my experience there. Discussions of my experiences with the church start around 6:25 cuz you know I had to talk about Miley and SZA breaking records FIRST honey. Love y'all! I'll be back with a more fun episode next week, promise! xo

Hey! This week I’m talking about men… the good, the bad, and the ugly. I talk about everything from being bullied by boys in my childhood to my s3xual awakening and celebrities who I think are hot. It’s a balanced episode— a dash of trauma and a dash of lust. LOL

My heart goes out to the family members of the victims in the Colorado Springs shooting at Club Q. Thoughts and prayers don't do much — not as much as legislative action would — but it's the best I can offer. My hope is that one day it won't be like this.

SOTW: "lost my mind" - Jayla

Hi! This week I talk all about "A Koblizzy Christmas" which is a collection of my favorite Christmas music, linked in my Linktree. I also talk about how nervous I am about trying to get Taylor Swift tickets, hanging out with my best friends this past weekend, and of course some of my favorite music! The SOTW is Reneé Rapp's debut EP "Everything to Everyone" and Shoshana Bean's surprise release "Late to the Party." See you next week!
