Ep 179. Blacks Only, Biracial Baes + 21 Questions Jun 02, 2022

Show notes

This week Shanti and Antoinette are back in the studio. The girls lament over their white moms never tasting the wonder that is oxtail and gravy. Antoinette invites white to try while Shanti feels they should miss out. They acknowledge the importance of having an older Black woman in your life & who, if anyone, could be their biracial baes. Finally, in true Libra fashion, Antoinette wants to get vulnerable, so they answer invasive questions posed by Esther Perel's card game, "Where Should We Begin". As they answer, they reveal parts of themselves they should break up with, a fantasy of theirs they are conflicted about, and everything in between. Join us.

Show notes

For episode 170, Shanti & Antoinette reflect on Jazmine's show, feeling like hell after staying out passed a certain hour & having a case of the "uglies". For pop culture, Shanti says goodbye to Maury while Antoinette reveals she didn't watch his show much but Ricky Lake was her girl, and together they discuss the unfortunate rise & fall of Wendy Williams. Shanti leads us through, "Politics as Usual" offering an interesting comparison to Ukraine and Palestine. And finally, for our main topic, we talk about whether or not it is even possible to have "the best p*ssy in the world." What are the qualifiers? Who do we think has it? What percentile do we think we are in? Mathematically, is this even possible? Join us.
