When the comedian and writer Ziwe first went viral during the pandemic for her gotcha-style interviews with celebrities on Instagram Live, people couldn’t get enough. Today, she joins Dua to talk about all things funny, from finding comedy in increasingly unfunny times to facing cancelations both metaphorical and literal in the past few years.
In what’s truly our most laugh-out-loud episode of the series, Ziwe dives deep into her comedic roots and takes us into the future of funny, touching on everything from her rating on the website wikiFeet (yes, really!) to the impact the ongoing Writers Guild of America and SAG strikes will have on Hollywood. If you’re looking for an episode as equally brimming with insight as it is with jokes, then this one is tailor-made for you.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
