Welcome back everyone! Today I have a guest appearance for your listening pleasure. I sat down with friends over on the WTF Forum to discuss the phenomenon of "ceiling birds". This topic is often considered to be a fringe and controversial conspiracy theory, myth or stereotype when it comes to African American communities.
But as we all know there is always an element of truth when in comes to such things. This was more a deep dive and long form discussion about the historical, cultural and sociopolitical impacts on African American culture and maybe just maybe "ceiling birds" may just have something to do with it.
African American culture and history is incredibly nuanced and complex. The intention of today's show is to turn a silly little internet theory or stereotype into a genuine conversation about the history of the United States and how African Americans form an integral part of that history. We went on to hypothesise about the possible explanations for the odd pattern based on history, psychology and cultural schisms.

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.
