I kept my Georgia registration for this reason. I JUST got my absentee ballot today because the republicans have been hindering absentee voters. I had to pay $30 to overnight my ballot so it would get there in time to be counted.

i was on a red eye flight with United Airlines for the first time this past weekend and this lady was making people measure their carry on bags in the little bag sizer before they got in line for TSA. At 4 AM. CHILE. She was literally making people leave the line to go check a carry on bag. A CARRY ON BAG.

This is why we used to put a sign on our door that there wasn't any candy. My Seventh Day Adventist caribbean momma was not having that

Fran! why didn't you put a sign up that said no candy lol

omg ever since asante suggested stereo driver, that song has been everywhere on tik tok.

Congratulations Fran on your new endeavor with NPR. You do this! Don't let Imposter Syndrome cloud that for you. You're an amazing producer.

Have yall seen Doechii's Colors performance of her new single Stressed? 🔥🔥🔥

The way I downloaded Sound Cloud just to leave this comment 😭 but Fran, you said “pregnant pause” at the beginning. You got 3 announcements or just the (amazing) 2? 👀

This week on #TheFriendZone, it’s Crime Zone October! Assanté brings the curious case of Paul Fronczak to the Hot Button Segment. Mercedes "Skin Care Bully" of IxoraBB joins the Wellness Segment to talk all things Donkey Milk.
