[106] Power Trips / Random Quips
June 06, 2017

We really would have brought you an episode at the beginning of last week. Honest. But the weather had other plans. Memphis was hit by a storm which knocked down power lines — leaving Faiqa with power for a week!

[105] Dear “Dear White People” People…
May 18, 2017

Yes. It’s been several weeks. We’ll get back on track soon. You trust us, right? We both have watched the new Netflix series “Dear White People,” a 10-part sorta-comedy about students at the fictional Westminster College where, in 2017,

[104] “Look It Up Yourself.”
March 30, 2017

We’re sort of all over the place during this one. Aside from the friendly banter, we talk at first about the recent epidemic of bomb threats called into Jewish institutions — and the surprising suspect who was arrested.

[103] Death, Mourning, and … that’s pretty much it.
March 16, 2017

Another episode! And it was recorded right as Faiqa and Mike were getting over nasty colds that make our voices sound all throaty and our throats sound all voicey. (No, I don’t know what that means either. But there’s a good deal of Sudafed in my syste...

[102] Interfaith Relationships: Not Really a Controversial Episode

It’s been a while! We recorded this one on February 3 — after both of us were incapacitated due to bad colds. These things happen… But when we recorded, we had been doing quite a few things. The “Muslim Ban” had been enacted by our President,

[100] #WhyIMarch
January 23, 2017

Both Faiqa and Mike went to Saturday’s Women’s March — in Memphis and Washington, DC! It was an amazing experience for both of us! Listen as we talk about what we got ourselves into, what we expected, what we didn’t expect,

[99] Was Streep’s Leap Steep Enough?
January 19, 2017

We talk about all sorts of things: The Women’s March which Mike is attending this weekend (and of which Faiqa is attending one of 600+ sister marches), Meryl Streep’s acceptance speech for the Cecile B. DeMille award at the Golden Globes,

[98] What Happens Now?
January 12, 2017

Remember how the last episode was all like “Wow! It’s been a long time?” This break between shows was just a bit longer.

[96] Jason Leclerc: Author-Poet-Cultural Critic
September 19, 2016

Wow! It’s been a long time… The past two months have been a bit crazy in our lives. In fact, while we were able to record this episode — which includes a great interview with a special guest — it took a good month to edit and do post-production on it.
