On this penultimate episode of Bourbon & Bordelons, Janay, Chaunece, Jibri and Panama beak down "Be and Be Better," the penultimate episode of Queen Sugar, and we're not happy about it. But luckily, the gang from St. Joe's brings some shenanigans. Like, does Aunt Vi not write down her recipes? Does Hollywood wear glasses? And just who did Charley think she was talking to on the phone? All those questions and more addressed on this episode of Bourbon & Bordelons, along with Advictions for the season finale and our honorary shots of bourbon! Take flight!

Queen Sugar Final Season

Taking Flight with Season 7 Episode 12 "Be and Be Better"

Well y'all, this is it. The series finale of Bourbon & Bordelons because we've reached the series finale of Queen Sugar, the television show that stole our hearts and minds and showed Blackness in an entirely unique and interesting light. New, original storytelling. The crew of Janay, Chaunece, Jibri and Corey break down the series finale episode "For They Existed" and take flight with the whole crew: Nova, Ralph Angel and even Charley, along with Aunt Vi, Hollywood, Prosper, Darla, Micah and Blue. We spend a few more minutes with them as they take flight into their own world from here on out. The crew drops some Advictions and as is customary, a shot of bourbon for the character who had the best SHOW, yep, for the ENTIRE series. Who might that be? You'll have to check it out.
