She Was Raised by Ricki … and Is Meeting Her at Last!

The best 90s self-care routine? For writer and podcast host Tracy Clayton, that was watching The Ricki Lake Show every day after school. The cultural critic talks about what makes the show so unforgettable, the importance of seeing Black representation on-screen, and how Ricki influenced her own career in media. Plus, Kalen tells us all about the best week of his life (two words: Queen Bey.)

 

Please note, Raised By Ricki contains mature themes and may not be appropriate for all listeners.
