**Ratchet & Respectable**

It’s a kiki for the culture!!! Journalist and author Demetria L. Lucas brings the group chat to life on her weekly podcast where she– and the occasional guest– muses on pop culture shenanigans, global galavanting, political insanity, and whatever else has captivated the zeitgeist AND her inner circle. Ratchet & Respectable is published twice weekly, every Tuesday, every Friday. Listen wherever popular podcasts are heard. #ratchetandrespectable
