Patience Part 2 - Too Patience, Too Prayerful
Haters say it’s impossible to do a good sequel. To them, we raise Toy Story 2, Serena Williams, B’Day, and this episode. Today, we’re revisiting the topic of patience with more vulnerability than the first time. Also, more Ghetto Bible Study!!!

The few times we stay on topic and Dee doesn’t take us off on a tangent every 5 minutes, a strong discussion comes forth. This is one of those episodes!!! Today, we kick off a mini-series on the fruit of the spirit by talking about *patience*. Bear with us 😬

Mobility Needs Upkeep
From push ups and protein to Pilates and putting in the work, the girls are talking about working out! They’ll also discuss beauty standards and touch on diet and weight loss culture. Most importantly, they’ll tell you the reasons why they work out, but not until after they’ve dragged another reality TV show and some mildly important celebs.

Get On The Winning Team
Just because you’re forgiven doesn’t mean we’ve forgotten… In this episode, Esther and Dee have a critical conversation about what forgiveness really looks like, and they reexamine how necessary it is to forgive in the face of the God of the Old Testament. Special vocabulary from this episode includes “comeuppance” and the phrase “gooped, gagged, and gumptioned”. Don’t ask us why.

It Doesn't Worth It
Didn’t know you could be friends with your own siblings??? Today's episode is as far as the girls will wander into talking about relationships, as they get into the ups and downs of building friendships with siblings as an adult. Navigating family can be rewarding sometimes and exhausting often, so Esther and Dee talk about the battles, the victories, and the moments where (as Lagosians say) it doesn’t worth it.

One Time for the White Girls
You read it right, today’s episode is about the lessons we’ve learned from the white people close to our hearts. We’re talking about audacity, faith, owning our successes, and somehow High School Musical. Alternative episode titles were “What Would White Jesus Do” and “Homeboy’s Gonna Like… Get It”

Do The Work
It’s the end of an era :( . Yes, finally, we’re rounding up our discussions on the pretty-ugly privilege series and we’re going out with a BANG. Esther and Dee dive deeper into *your* responses on pretty privilege and discuss how some of their pretty friends navigate the disadvantages they face. Plus, the girls spend waaaay too long trying to understand what “abowww” means. (Special shoutout to Malaika, @___.malaika.___ on tiktok and @muhlikeuh on instagram)

Pretty Girl Pitfalls
Alright, we know that pretty people struggle, but do they really? Or is it just a big ole sip of CAPri-sonne (CAPrisun if you're American)? Continue through the saga with Esther and Dee as they attempt to step into the shoes of fine babes and see the world from their perspective, the good, the bad, and the surprisingly ugly.
