December 01, 2024 Art, Fatherhood, and CHROMOKOPIA: A Perspective on Tyler's Growth ft Symply Courtney
Special Episode: 1 Hour on Tyler, The Creator's CHROMOKOPIA | Variety
Half Hour Podcast"
In this special episode of the Variety Half Hour Podcast, we’re
dedicating a full hour to Tyler, The Creator’s latest album,
CHROMOKOPIA. From his raw vulnerability with Bastard to the experimental
brilliance of CHROMOKOPIA, we explore Tyler’s evolution through seven
albums, including Goblin, Wolf, Cherry Bomb, Flower Boy, IGOR, and
CMIYGL.
As a Black woman in the comedy scene, I’ll also dive into how tracks
like I Killed You resonate with my own experiences—feeling both inspired
and paranoid while navigating spaces dominated by white men. We'll
unpack how Tyler’s work reflects his personal journey and challenges,
particularly his experiences with identity, fatherhood, and creativity
in a world that often feels limiting.
We’ll also discuss the influence of Odd Future, the legacy of
collaborations with Earl Sweatshirt, and how Tyler continually pushes
artistic boundaries. Songs like "Ratahtah," "St. Chromo," and "Noid"
offer layers of meaning that connect to our own struggles with
authenticity and the complexity of being Black in predominantly white
spaces.
Join us for this shallow dive into CHROMOKOPIA, where we explore Tyler’s
impact on art, culture, and the journey to find one’s true self.

October 01, 2024 Stand Up Producer Alert!
Join me for a solo episode where I dive into being a lady in the Austin comedy scene, why I don't f*** with roast battles and local news.
I’ll dish on producing my first show, ponder the quirks of love and laughter, and explore the fine line between positive and negative reinforcement—because who doesn’t love a little psychology with their punchlines?
So, kick back, relax, and let’s have some fun!
