Melanin Unicorn Returns

Send us a text

Guess what? The Melanin Unicorn is galloping back into your podcast feed! After what feels like forever, Season 2 drops Monday, and the excitement is palpable. This return journey hasn't been easy, but it's been worth every step to reconnect with you—especially those amazing listeners tuning in from across the globe.

Between recording sessions for the new season, I made a hilarious self-discovery: I have a slight lisp! Who knew? It's barely noticeable until I hear the playbacks, and honestly, I find it pretty amusing. It's these little revelations that remind us we're constantly evolving, constantly learning about ourselves.

What you can expect from Season 2 is exactly what the Melanin Unicorn has always delivered: authentic conversations about life—the serious parts, the challenging moments, the victories and defeats. No fluff, no foolishness—just real talk about the human experience in all its complexity. I'm also thrilled to announce a brand new segment featuring book readings by Black women authors, spanning both romance and non-romance genres. This addition feels like the perfect complement to our existing conversations.

Looking ahead, I'm keeping things fluid. Season 2 is definitely happening, but after that? We might just keep rolling without formal season breaks. As I like to say, "We're going to ride it until the wheels fall off." Whatever form it takes, I promise the content will remain meaningful, engaging, and true to the spirit of the Melanin Unicorn. Subscribe now, tell your friends, and join me Monday as we embark on this next chapter together!
