This week, Shanti and Antoinette catch up on hard conversations, Facebook Marketplace addiction, protein goals and what qualifies as kinky. For politics, Antoinette breaks down Zohran Mamdani’s growing influence in New York and what recent progressive wins could mean for the Democratic establishment.

For pop culture, the ladies discuss Oprah’s comments about Whitney Houston, Clive Davis’s complicated legacy, why Ben Savage may have ghosted his Boy Meets World castmates, a fake Britney Spears quote and the queer yearning in Sister Act. Join us.

This week, we celebrate the 500th episode of Around the Way Curls! Together, we reflect on the work we’ve done, the community we’ve built, and the journey that brought us here.

In politics, we discuss Trump’s ghetto White House celebration and the U.S.–Iran peace deal. In pop culture, we unpack Jay-Z’s exclusive Target deal, Eve’s Tiny Desk performance, and the latest round of internet diaspora wars between Africans and Black Americans.

Join us as we celebrate this milestone, revisit the journey, and get into this week’s mess.

In collaboration with The CultureLP Disney’s Encanto In Concert, presented by the New York Philharmonic, runs June 18–21 at David Geffen Hall.

Shanti enters her rock phase as she crushes on a rising punk rock star, while Antoinette defends this new generation of “aunties and uncles.” Together, we crash out over Keke Palmer and the Hot Ones white man, question whether Young M.A misrepresents the queer community, debate the Knicks vs. the Spurs, unpack the lost art of women setting each other up well, and discuss Pam Grier’s orgasms that last for days.
