Did you think we would let Black Speculative Fiction month go by without an acknowledgement? Nah.

You didn't think Black Speculative Fiction month was going to conclude without an episode from us, did you? Hoodoo Hairston (Lady H), Madame Pearl (Madam Lazet), Delta Rease (Mo_Rease), Smoke Coleman (Rhayne Coleman) and Lady D recorded our thoughts on Sinners back in the Spring. This is part one of our discussion and we go in.

Here are some of the things that we mentioned in this episode:

Ratchet and Respectable

The Color Purple

Alice

Lovecraft Country

Idlewild

The Imitation of Life

Passing

A Jazzman's Blues

Beloved

Cowboy Carter

Octavia Butler

Howdy Watchers,

As you know, we have been covering Beyond the Gates (BTG) since it's premier, but you've mainly heard from us- Ms. Semi, JJ and Mrs. Ashly. You've also heard from Mo_Rease, but you hadn't heard from Watch With You co-host Lady D, nor Queen Melmendi and soap newbie Fade to Black. Well, you are going to hear from them in this episode. And stay tuned, because we have feedback from other fans coming in the next episode. But wait, there's more! If you are a fan of #BTG and have something to share, shoot us a voicemail at [email protected] by October 30, 2025.

In this special short episode, JJ and Mrs. Ashly recap the aftermath of Drew's shooting for Ms. Semi (and you).

Hello there!

Mrs. Ashly, Ms. Semi and JJ reunite to talk about soaps. We delve briefly into Days, YR and B & B-the Lionshare of our talk centers around GH and BTG. We dive right in because we had lots on our mind. We hope you had a great summer. Stay tuned for our next episode which is all about wrestling!

Mo, JJ, and Ms. Semi continue their book discussion with a reaction of smutty smut smut from the gang and then about 30 minutes in, they venture beyond the gates chat about our soaps. See how well we did with our predictions.

JJ had a recording cancellation and sent out the Bat signal to fellow readers Mo_Rease and Ms. Semi. We aim to fill up your TBR lists, so please listen with a pen and paper handy. We will back with part two soon and with a chat about Beyond the Gates.
