Therapy for Black Girls
Dr. Joy Harden Bradfordis amazing.
In this podcast she goes deep with her guests on a variety of topics that center on relationships.
I love that she allows her guests to choose the direction, which makes the conversation unique and flowable.
I love that it focuses on Black women’s stories in a factualbut slightly opinionatedformat.
Her guests are also just as great!
Reasonably Shady
I loveReal Housewives of Potomac, so I knew I would like this podcast.
The pair aren’t afraid to talk about anything, from politics to entertainment and their fellow Housewives.
With different segments like Weird Sex and Cocktale/Cockfail, these women keep these topics exciting every week.

It’s an empowering and shockingly entertaining listen.
I tell everyone to listen, even my non-fashion-industry folks.
Omondi and her guests are so passionate and knowledgeable about their topics it’s entrancing.
They discuss resilience, personal struggles, and, of course, their accomplishments.
(My fave episodes have been with Kim K and Reese Witherspoon.)A.N.
I always come away from an episode more knowledgable, miraculously relaxed, and, of course, hungry.
We think it’s a joke.
Host George Civeris added, It’s camp.
As such, it captures a vibe you might recognize from, say, sending any email ever.
while providing running commentary that’s genuinely laugh-out-loud funny.
If you’re a theater fan, you’ll adore this charming and highly bingeable podcast.
The result is highly intimate and interesting.

Celebrity Book Club
Who’s that knocking at the door?
It’s all your friends, you filthy whore!
So goes the theme song forCelebrity Book Club,hosted by comedians Steven Phillips-Horst and Lily Marotta.
The hosts, who are childhood friends, can be hilariously brutal.
But they also analyze celebrities' self-reported life stories with more respect and scholarly interest than most.
