#9 Season 1 Finale: P Is for Plants, Pinterest, and Podcast Joys
In our first season's finale, we circle back to the things that bring us joy! And, oddly enough, a lot of them start with the letter 'P.' We delve into the world of plant parenthood, with Dee, who owns an astonishing collection of over 40 plants. We navigate through the quirky side of pandemic-induced plant collecting and faux plant debates. You guessed it; toilets somehow make their way into the conversation again! Pinterest, pregnancy firsts, introverts, and popular shows like 'Ted Lasso' and 'The Great British Bake-off also make an appearance. With the occasional soundtrack of kids in the background (this is real-life people), we wrap up this season—a true labor of love. Thank you for joining us on this journey, and we can't wait to have you back for the next season!

#8 Defining Luxury in an Inflation Economy: From Plantains to Period Panties
In this episode, we dive into living our best lives amidst an inflation economy. We start off by reminiscing on the good ol' days when strawberries, plantain, and plantain chips didn't cost an arm and a leg. We laugh over when and where we first noticed prices going up, and how it's affected our daily lives. Then, we take a detour to our favorite topic - yes, you guessed it, poop. Dinah leads us down a hilarious rabbit hole of cloth diapers, period cups, and period panties - brace yourselves for some eyebrow-raising questions! We then pivot to pondering the concept of luxury - how we define it and the subjective nature of it. Is therapy a luxury, or should it be a necessity? Is it all about finances, or is luxury a standalone conversation? Expect plenty of laughs, insightful debates, and lots of unexpected twists in this lighthearted but thought-provoking episode.

#7 Navigating the Tides: Cancel Culture, Corporate Accountability & Public Outrage
In this episode, we delve deep into the recent CitiBike incident involving a New York City hospital staffer and black boys, approaching the conversation with both emotion and logic. We turn our spotlight on the growing phenomenon of 'cancel culture'. Are we too hasty in 'canceling' individuals, celebrities, and corporations? Have we forgotten the art of forgiveness, or is this just accountability in its rawest form? Join us as we explore if there exists a middle ground. We also touch upon Don Lemon's controversy, corporate repercussions - is it the responsibility of employers, society, or the government to set these? While also exploring the age old question…do Africans drink Bud Light?!

#6 The Great Beauty Debate: From Ciara's Outfit to Body Alterations
In this laughter-filled episode, we rewind to Ciara's show-stopping outfit at the Vanity Fair party. Why does she look so good, why did folks react to her outfit the way they did, and most importantly, what did Chinny think of the outfit….alot apparently!
We also turn the spotlight on ourselves, exploring how women see and present themselves to the world, from hair to makeup to routines. Brace yourselves for a hilarious breakdown of where our money disappears in the appearance game.
Ever wondered about makeup levels? We’ve got you covered, from the humble vaseline look to brow-stunting and lash-fluttering extravaganzas. But we don’t stop there. We dive into the more serious topic of body alterations, handling it with our usual blend of warmth and wit.

#5: Classrooms & Conversations: Nurturing a Dialogue on Race and Education
In this heartfelt episode, we take on the sensitive topic of education and race. We explore our hopes for what our children learn about race in school and consider the roles parents and teachers should play in this critical area of learning. Is it the teachers, the caregivers, or both who bear this important responsibility?
We then turn to the difficult but necessary task of explaining racism to children, asking if perhaps we, as adults, need to spend sometime in the classroom ourselves to address our biases.
We also talk about the troubling issue of non-cis gender attacks, approaching it with understanding and empathy. Tune in for an enriching dialogue on race, responsibility, and the realities of our world.

#4: Martha, Mortality & Machines: Our Conversational Hop into the Future
In this episode, we dive headfirst into a mix of topics that will have you laughing, reflecting, and maybe even planning for the future. We kick things off with our hot takes on Martha Stewart's surprising appearance in Sports Illustrated - talk about aging gracefully! This segues into a thoughtful discussion on what our lives might look like three decades from now, and how our parents are adapting to life in the present day.
Things get a bit serious as we navigate the realm of estate planning and mortality, but fear not - we bring our usual humor and warmth to even these hefty subjects.
Finally, we delve into the fascinating world of AI. Will it revolutionize our lives, or are we looking at real-life ‘I, Robot’ or ‘Terminator’ situation? We unpack it all, even going down a rabbit hole exploring with ‘Contagion’ and prediction elements in ‘The Simpsons’.

#3: From Gentle to 'Sugar and Pepper': Parenting Perspectives on All New Friends

We'll also stretch the conversation across the Atlantic, comparing parenting styles here with those back ‘home’ - African….West Africa to be exact. Be prepared for passionate arguments, hearty laughter, and maybe even a moment of consensus because parenting, as we all agree, is no easy task.
