The New Vernacular

This week we switch it up a bit and share stories about each other from yesteryear. This week homophobes were on one so we tug at their wigs.

The wrong Amazon is on fire and the wrong ICE is melting. This week’s Choke goes to the Brazil’s Trump who causes chaos on Facebook. We deep dive in the VMAs from the performances, legacy, and of course… MISSY ELLIOTT!

This week we celebrate Normani’s ascension as THAT girl with her new music video Motivation. Samir and Eli have strong feelings about the direction in the new Proud Family reboot from Dijonay’s character growth to the intro music (i.e will we get another Solange & Destiny’s Child collab??). Sadly Rumi and Sir failed their first assignment on Daddy Duty because he struck a deal with the NFL during nap time.

It’s the second half of Act Up season, Mercury’s out of retrograde, and we catch up on everything from Pride Month to Pride Rock! We are back giving you our Hot Girl Summer update, putting you on to this summer’s big tings like Euphoria and friend to the podcast Indigo Asaá’s new mixtape “Bloom". Samir said it best: "Don't get Diddy cropped out of your Hot Girl Summer"

Happy Pride folks!! We have our good girlfriend Jaz joining us this episode and we talk everything Pride Month; from our history to the rainbow marketing campaigns.

Welcome back y'all! This week we open up about mourning and the grieving process when someone close to you passes.

Welcome back lovely people! We dive into y’all’s President’s fuckery, the Royal baby Prince Hakeem, the Stuntfest that was this year’s MET Gala (we love you Billy Porter), and the misses (we’re talking to you Gigi Hadid).

We talk everything “Cuz I Love You” Lizzo’s new album and drag the Nuevo Colonizers in DC using Howard as a dog park. This is a Beyoncé stan account so of course we’re talking her Netflix deal. Things get heavy when we dive into the story surrounding Nigel Shelby and growing up at the insection of being Black and Gay.

Eli and Samir act a fool for the King of Music Beyoncé and her magnum opus Homecoming. The Founding Muva of Beta Delta Kappa— Big Sister Upgrade U is BACK Y’ALL and we talk about everything we love from her new documentary on Netflix. Also, Paris is Burning returns to theaters this June alongside Pose’s return to FX.“Beyoncé has given us great quality every time. She’s given us growth, she’s given us a whole new mood, a whole new outlook, a whole new octave sometimes!” - Samir
