Another Play on the Plantation?! | EP 59

We’re back Thickums! This week we’re getting into the controversy surrounding Todrick Hall’s off-Broad musical, Midnight , and the backlash that it’s received.

Is this a story worth telling or should we retire slavery as entertainment? We also cover Katie Zachariah’s extremely short stint as White House Press Secretary, the protests going on across the globe, and Trump’s latest attempts at interfering with the midterms.

And because we always need some mess to balance the existential dread, we get into the Victoria’s Secret fashion show, the golden era of video vixens, Druski hosting SNL and so much more! You don’t want to miss this one so be sure you tap in!
