Unapologetic Energy

In this final part of our Love Island breakdown, we dive into the season finale and everything that came after. We kick things off with the ultimate couple the Vancarthens (aka Orlandra and Nic) and share our hopes that their relationship stays strong despite all the noise from fans and the internet. We also unpack the weird obsession with knowing every detail of celebrities’ personal lives, and how taking their brand too far can s...

Part 2 of the Love Island madness! Madnyx tells Soulqueen about the aftermath of the drama with Jeramie, Huda’s “Heart Rate” challenge, and how she still doesn’t see that she is the bully and the problem—from trying to take her own friends’ men to causing a divide, yet still playing the so-called victim. Somehow, she hasn’t been kicked off the show, even though it’s clear she’s the one causing chaos.

On top of that, we dive into...

Unapologetic Energy, MadNyx gives SoulQueen the rundown on the messy villa vibes of Love Island. From Huda’s whirlwind relationship with Jeramie to the red flags of control, manipulation, and straight-up narcissism — we’re unpacking it all.

We talk about how Huda’s behavior showed not just toxicity, but also shades of anti-Blackness, and why her and Jeramie’s relationship was doomed from the jump. (Y’all, they only knew each other ...

MadNyx & SoulQueen get real about celebrity culture and the messy ways it plays out in the music industry. From Nicki Minaj to Azealia Banks, we talk about how some artists treat other Black women in music — and how their fans often ignore or excuse harmful behavior.

We also dig into the blissful ignorance of fandoms, the constant pushing of certain artists while others are sidelined, and the uncomfortable truth about how anti-...

In this chill catch-up episode, we’re talking everything from post-apocalyptic chaos in The Walking Dead and The Last of Us, to why Nyx can’t stand most characters—but is somehow loving Berleezy’s gameplay. We also get into reality TV (yes, Love Island), and how seeing Black women on screen is the only reason we’re tuning in. Between school, car trouble, and just trying to stay afloat, the world is doing the most—but we’re here to ...

In this episode, we dive into the complex intersections between the recent events in Los Angeles and broader dynamics between Black communities and other communities of color. We talk about the visible fractures in solidarity, the understandable frustrations within Black communities, and the problematic assumption that Black people are always expected to lead or save every movement. This conversation holds space for the uncomfortab...

It’s been a minute, but we’re back — and it’s time to finish the story... or at least the next chapter.

In Part 2 of our series, Me and Madnyx return to unpack the real fallout: what went down with Daphne, the group chat with the wildly inappropriate name, and the casual anti-Blackness that could no longer be ignored. We talk about Daphne’s "secret" crush on “Hotdog Water” (yes, that Hotdog Water from Part 1), the lies she told, and...

In this first part of a raw and reflective two-part series, Me and Madnyx take it back to October 2024 — the beginning of what seemed like a promising academic alliance. Think Scooby-Doo meets group projects, only the ghosts are real and they show up as microaggressions and unchecked anti-Blackness. Using the iconic mystery gang as cover characters, we dive into the formation of a diverse-but-not-really study group where things sta...

In Part Two of our High School Musical rewatch and rewrite series, we dig into the second movie and all the wild contradictions it gave us—like how did Troy’s supposedly lower middle-class family afford that nice of a house?!

We pitch our dream episodic series between HSM 2 and HSM 3, filling in the gaps Disney skipped. Chad and Ryan’s relationship takes center stage as they go from flirty baseball rivals to full-on couple, while T...

In this first part of our deep dive into High School Musical, we unpack the drama behind the drama. Is Troy Bolton really the hero, or actually the problem? We explore why Chad and Ryan were clearly meant to be, how the original characters lacked real depth, and how fanfic gave us the better ships we deserved.

We also imagine how we’d rewrite HSM 1 & 2 including a version where Chad finds his own identity outside of being Troy’s...

Nyx and Soul dive into the rise of reboots—and the fall of original storytelling. In this episode, we break down how Hollywood keeps reviving old shows and movies instead of creating something new, often stripping away what made the originals so special in the first place.

We talk about how reboots can mess with character identities, erase meaningful community representation, and push aside fresh ideas. Plus, we call out the sh...

In this episode, Soul takes Nyx (and all of us) on a trip down memory lane with one of her childhood faves—the chaotic, dramatic, and kinda wild 2010 animated show Angel’s Friends.

We get into the star-crossed romance between angel Raf and devil Sulfus, the highs and lows of the early episodes, and how this show somehow managed to be good in some moments… and unhinged in others.

If you’ve never heard of Angel’s Friends or i...

In this episode, we get real about how mainstream media often strips marginalized communities of their voices—and even their humanity. We explore how stories are taken, twisted, and told through a lens that benefits the powerful, while erasing the lived experiences of the people actually affected.

We also dive into society’s obsession with glorifying serial killers, corporations, and other harmful figures, all while the families of ...

In this episode, Nyx puts Soul on to the darker side of the Kpop world—sasaengs, the obsessive fans who cross boundaries and put idols through serious emotional and physical stress. We talk about how this toxic side of fandom affects artists, their mental health, and the industry as a whole.

We also share our own experiences with Kpop—how Nyx got into it, the groups we vibe with, our first K-dramas, and those early days of watch...

In this episode, Soul and Nyx dive into a deep convo about a growing trend—Passport Bros. These are men who travel abroad claiming to find "better" women, often in low-income countries like Thailand, because they feel rejected or entitled in their home country.

We unpack the harmful roots of this movement, including how they’ve twisted the term incel—a word originally created by a woman to describe involuntary celibacy for all peopl...

We’re back with Part 2 of Minority Housewives! Soul, Nyx, TinTin, and Kora dive even deeper into the realities of college life and being Black and POC women just trying to make it in America.

In this episode, we open up about the school shooting that happened at our college—how it shook our campus and how it made us reflect on safety, mental health, and what it really means to be a student in today’s world. 🕊️

We also talk a...

Welcome back to Minority Housewives! In this second episode of Season 2, your hosts Soul and Nyx are joined by our amazing friends TinTin and Kora for a raw, real, and hilarious convo.

We’re diving deep into what it’s like being POC women in college—juggling life, money, and the rising cost of just trying to get an education . We also get into men (yes… them), childhood crushes, our favorite characters, and the kinda partner we’...

Hey everyone! After a little summer break, we’re finally back—and kicking off Season 2 with a bang!

In this episode, we’re joined by a very special guest (and dear friend) TinTin! We dive into everything from our types in relationships and ideal partners to childhood favorites like Bratz and Monster High. Plus, we get into some laughs about languages and growing up with all the chaos that comes with it.

Come hang out with us, catch ...
