The Branches launch this episode with a drink, new to some but familiar to Thomas, called Screwball Whiskey. It was a hit with the show guests! The guests are the joy moment for today, as Kim shares how excited she is for the guests today. The Branch recommendation is a trip recommendation today. They highly recommend a trip to Aruba and a stay at the Renaissance Hotel w/ the Flamingo Beach! The guests are introduced, and today’s guests join the pod with an icebreaker [7:27]. The topic for today is the conversation about predominately white institutions (PWI) and historically black universities (HBCU). We launch chat about where the guests and Branches went to college, and why they chose those schools [25:50]. We dive into government funding [37:26] for schools, and the campus life on respective campuses. We touch on the academic differences [52:33], and wrap up the discussion with the social, Greek and organization life at respective schools. [57:55].

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.
