You Good, Sis?

At just 24 years old, Sandra Okuboyejo has already performed four different roles in Hamilton, written a musical, and was chosen to lead a new Off-Broadway show (Nollywood Dreams by Jocelyn Bioh). Tune in to learn more about where she’s been and where she’s going... You’re going to want to follow the journey! Email the show at yougoodsispod@gmail and follow us on all of the things: @yougoodsispod!

Welcome to 2021... Y'all, what the actual hell is going on? We don't know, but our good sis Andrea "Annie" Paige is here to process it all with us. Oh and if anyone knows Tamar Braxton, please tell her to call us. Email your thoughts, questions and suggestions to us at yougoodsispod@gmail.com!

Close out this ridiculous year with a good drink and some "You Good, Sis?"- it's the last episode of 2020! We'll see you again next year, but in the meantime, share your favorite episodes with your friends and email us at yougoodsispod@gmail.com. 

Today is Black Friday. We're Black every Friday. Listen closely for some Black-owned businesses to support this holiday season! Don't forget to email us at yougoodsispod@gmail.com.

Did you read the title of this episode to the tune of "get this dance?" You should have. Email us at yougoodsispod@gmail.com!

We don't have to move to Canada (yet). Put the capital "B" in "Black." Blue Ivy is king. And other things.

Still waiting for Nevada to finish counting. Here's a distraction. Share, rate, review, subscribe and email us at yougoodsispod@gmail.com!

There are lot of feelings. A lot of facts. A lot of lies. Some fear. Some excitement. It's an Election 2020 episode! This week we're joined by Krystal Leaphart, who currently serves as the Special Assistant and Policy Associate at the National Organization of Black Elected Legislative Women, or NOBEL Women. Rate, review, subscribe, then email us at yougoodsispod@gmail.com!

This week, we have our usual foolishness and a special interview with Orisel "Ori" Bejaran! October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, and we were lucky to have such an honest, hilarious survivor on the show. Email us your thoughts, questions and suggestions at yougoodsispod@gmail.com!

We quoted Penny Proud more than once this week.

Y'all know what kind of week it's been. What's helping us cope? Moira Rose's accent. Celebrating the Black Emmy winners. Making pandemic-safe plans for the fall... and scheduling field trips to the beauty supply. (A good beauty supply is good for the soul.) Email us your questions and topic suggestions at yougoodsispod@gmail.com!

It's September, and fireworks are still going off in our neighborhood. That doesn't have anything to do with what we talked about this week... but it's important to note.

When we're not hype about Cardi and Meg or conflicted about Kamala Harris, you can find us bracing ourselves for seasonal depression by stanning for our favorite toddlers.  That will all make sense to you by the end of the episode. This week, cultural critic and writer Kia Speaks (@kiaspeaks) shares her journey with self-care in the pandemic and her brilliant perspective on justice, sex, gender and theology. We hope y'all love listening to this interview as much as we enjoyed hosting it!

If you have a panic attack, try not to have it backstage at your favorite podcast's live show. But if you do, make sure to have a roommate that will yell at people for you. Also of note: Blue Ivy is King. Self-care includes self-discipline. Respect Nina Simone always.

Is it Netflix or is it UPN? This week, and always, we're rooting for everybody Black (with sense) and loving when allies open their purses. We also love when we successfully find therapists, but they must be Prince fans. That's not up for negotiation. Hopefully, our histories with searching for therapists can help and inspire you. Oh... and theme songs from Black sitcoms in the 90s/00s are undefeated.

We're back with a full-length episode and this week's guest- Jenny Laroche! A woman of "many hats," (The Rockettes, Smash (NBC), SUMMER: The Donna Summer Musical, choreographing, mentoring, volunteering, organizing... and working with Queen Bey herself) Jenny shared so many gems that we're giving y'all Part 1 of her interview now and saving the rest for next week! Let's also not talk about Chance The Rapper and dive headfirst into this Nick Cannon mess while we send healing energy to Megan Thee Stallion, stan for Merle Dandridge and remember that we do, indeed, have friends.

Also, it's our roommate anniversary. If someone sends us cupcakes, we will not complain.
