Episode notes
Feeling inspired by Mama Mia: Here We Go Again, James tries out some new vocal impressions to the joy…? Chagrin… of Nnekay. Next up, the duo deconstruct HBO’s Insecure, the ups and down of all three seasons and where they think they the show should head towards. In Nnekay’s Korner- she tackles the national crisis of Black Maternal Mortality rates. What is happening to theses women and their babies! It’s incredibly important information for all of us and hopefully highlight some of the women taking action to help fix it. We round out the episode with James breaking down Hoteps, what they are and how they are detrimental. ALSO we got a BIG BIG MK Surprise!!!
