They discuss the challenges she faces, reflect on the significance of her candidacy, dissect the complexities of supporting a political figure who embodies both progress and problematic policies. The conversation then shifts to the controversy surrounding Rachel Ray Gunn's breakdancing performance at the Olympics, unpacking how the “Rachel Dolezal of breakdancing” has impacted the perception of breakdancing as a sport. To close out the conversation, they tackle the heavy topic of Diddy's legal troubles, discussing the allegations of abuse and the broader implications for the music industry.

We do “adult” differently. We are That Black Couple. Our goal is to create a space for Black millennials to discuss and embody adult life on their own terms. We aren’t beholden to “traditional” gender or parenting roles, queerness is fluid and present in the ways we show up in our relationships and in the world, and we want to build community with other 30-something Black folx who are trying to figure this ish out.
