Diva Discourse is a podcast about Beyoncé — her music, her live performances, and the strokes of technical and creative genius that make her the greatest showman of our time. The podcast is hosted by two cultural critics and career-long students (or maybe masters?) of the American queen.

Our episodes won’t consist of cursory recaps or celebrity minutia. We'll take deep dives. We’ll cover one song per episode: its composition, roots, context, music video, live performances, and legacy. 

Every episode will also feature a special one-minute session titled "Mama Tina's Hair Salon," a shout-out to Beyoncé's mother, Tina Lawson. Tina ran a hair salon in Houston, Texas, where Beyoncé met many of the women who inspired her songs. In our Salon, we pay tribute to the person — real or imaginary, historical or contemporary — for whom we imagine the song in question was quintessentially written.
