Finding Frank Ocean

Happy New Yearrrr and cheers to our first episode of 2017! First things first, we must discuss Mariah Carey and why she needs to pull it together, Drake's new bae, and the divorce of the "hood couple that could". Plus, do you have engagement fever? If so, we have some tips on how to get that temperature down. And is it ever okay to bring a weapon to a tinder date?! And we finish it off with the Biblical method of getting God to answer to your prayers.

Fake Love - Drake
The Boy is Mine - Monica & Brandy

Mariah (Can't) Carey

We discuss how Fyre was everything but fire and the new American Healthcare Act. And despite of our views of Trump, we stress the importance of opting into insurance plans even though you're 20something & healthy. We discuss good judgment and how some just aren't fit to be cops. Rest in Paradise Jordan Edwards. Summer is around the corner and so is Power! And did you hear about the revival of Roseanne?! We discuss that plus reminisce on our favorite Cosby Show episodes. And like every black girl, our hair struggles are something real. We tell our tea - from burnt hair to bad weaves to green hair. And Coach buys Kate Spade and we share our opinion on the odd duo. And for Godspiration, always remember when you're faced with temptation - "know your weaknesses and what you can and can't handle and live accordingly". 

That’s What I Like - Bruno Mars
