Pop-Tarts and Podcasts: A Health Warning No One Asked For

Hold Please, I Said What I Said

Ever noticed how the media loves to paint everything in black and white? Literally. Our spirited discussion dives into the Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese rivalry that's dominating sports headlines, questioning whether this is truly about race or simply two competitive athletes who don't particularly like each other. We examine RG3's controversial comments and ask the deeper question: why can't we just let these talented women be competitors without forcing a racial narrative?
Between fits of laughter and inside jokes that perfectly demonstrate our friendship, we share our current reading journeys and audiobook adventures. From A'ja Wilson's "Dear Black Girls" to Dawn Staley's "Uncommon Favor," we're absorbing wisdom from successful Black women who've blazed trails in their respective fields. There's something powerful about hearing these stories directly from the women who lived them—and we're soaking it all in.
We celebrate a major milestone: our podcast being featured in not one but TWO magazines (Heat Seekers and Black Page Turners) just five months into our podcasting journey! This leads to a more personal health check-in, where we get real about monitoring blood sugar levels and how outward appearances don't always reflect our internal health metrics. And yes, we confirm what we all suspected—Pop-Tarts are indeed just "sugar formed in a square," delicious as they may be.
